These mini headphones, released a couple of years ago, are still among the most sought-after in the lightweight, over-the-head headphones. They are perfect for portable audio players and the iPod-lugging crowd—sleek, iPod-white, light, and foldable. They are supra-aural with an open design ideal for the outdoors and traveling, and produces outstanding sound reproduction. According to [...]
The RS110 wireless headphones from Sennheiser will set you off $50+ dollars—entry level budget for the wireless headphones segment. The wireless signal is transmitted by a powerful 900 MHz transmitter that can penetrate walls and ceilings, as long as they are within range. As for the sound, Sennheiser describes this set as “warm-sounding” with a [...]
These are quite old, but, for the sake of archiving, let’s review these so-called “professional” DJ headphones by Sennheiser. First off, these are closed, circumaural, and are designed for monitoring—which means the frequency response should be as flat as possible. It has up to 32 decibels of attenuation, which is part of its selling point [...]
The Sennheiser HD 485 belongs to the sub $200-semi-audiophile segment, which means balance between price and performance is key. The greater the sound per dollar invested, the better these cans rank among the competition. Sennheiser earned our respect from the HD 555, at right about the same price as these. The 485s cover the entire [...]
The Sennheiser HD457 is somewhat an upgraded version of the subject of my last review—the HD 202. The headband is exactly the same, nay the color, and the earcups look like they were conceived from the same mold, except for some grooves on the outside part of the HD457. The foam on the headband and [...]
I once owned a pair of Sennheiser HD 202s. The year was 2006, and I wanted a little extra something for my 24th birthday. I knew I wanted headphones, because at that time my work was already computer-based, and I have already ditched the desktop with a laptop—which meant I had already dropped the idea [...]
A look back at an all-time favorite The Sennheiser HD595, as old a model as it may be, is still one of our favorites. Why? Because it’s just so easy to listen to that all that’s left for us is to enjoy the music. And that’s what music lovers want, don’t we? Enough of the [...]
The Sennheiser HD497, the top model of Sennheiser’s StreeWear range, has a frequency response of 37-21,000Hz, an impedance of 32 ohms, and an SPL rating of 112 dB—all of which makes it a little short of being considered “audiophile material.” However, at around $76 (list price), a typical media player-carrying commoner can enjoy a far [...]
First on Headfile—an earphone review. The Sennheiser MX 400s are cheap replacements earbuds for your iPod or other portable media players. How cheap? Some go as low as $8.99. Sennheiser is a popular and respectable brand so we figured, why not give one of their uber mass-produced consumer products a listen. First things first, if [...]
After researching Sony, RCA, and Sennheiser wireless headphones I settled on the Sennheiser RS-120′s and I have no regrets. These are excellent headphones. I ended up buying them at GoogGuys. When I asked the associate if I could try them he connected them to a DVD player and they came to life. I walked all [...]
