Customers are saying
Customers are delighted by the excellent sound quality and comfortable fit of these headphones. Many appreciate the lightweight design and find them to be a good value for the price. However, some users note that the bass could be improved, and the cord length is a point of contention for some. A few also mention challenges with volume and jack compatibility.

Great open back headphones
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty good for gaming. Used well in locating directional sounds with it's wide soundstage. I consider it one of the best headphones for gaming that I've used in the past 2 years. Shame that it's discontinued but I believe it has been replaced and updated by the sennheiser 599.

Good headphones for music
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones were purchased for listening to music through my stereo music system. They have a 1/4" plug, so are good for regular music systems, although an adapter is included so they can be used with portable music systems. Headphones are reasonably priced, and are comfortable over-ear phones with decent sound reproduction.

Outstanding value
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the discounted price, these are quite special headphones from a well known headphone maker. Although there are newer models now available, they are not necessarily any better sounding than this tried and true model. If you are looking for a great sounding pair without spending audiophile $$$, these should be on your list.

Great pair of headphones for a beginner audophile
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these headphones after seeing them on sale for $75 mutliple times on Best Buys website, finally caved right in the middle of summer. By far the best pair of headphones I have ever had. The bass is deep and prominent but it does not drown out any of the other stuff.

Very uncomfortable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these to replace my original Sennheiser HD540 that lasted 20 years. Those were extremely comfortable and I could wear them for hours. Also, the HD540 had better sound. I would not buy another headphone from Sennheiser again. :)

Excellent for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are very good, no fuss, headphones for the price. I use them with a VR headset and the over ear design and excellent sound complete the immersion. I wanted something lightweight but wide enough to fit over the headset and still be gentle on my ears after hours of play.

Sennheiser - Audiophile
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Head phones are awesome! Needs to be broken in by using them for a week or so...headphones covers the ears so you can keep them on for awhile without it hurting your ears. Plus, you can hear your surroundings.

Silence is Golden
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While not noise silencing, these headphones do an excellent job of drowning out ambient noise such as a small crying child seated directly behind me on a flight from Pennsylvania to Sacramento. Without them, this could have made a 3 hour flight seem like 10!!!

Great pair of wired headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed these for my laptop, plugging into a pair of Bose speakers. The size reminds me of the old days of headphones - but I find that I just can't quite give up a wired connection, vs. a wireless pair of headphones. Maybe with my next laptop? Good phones.

Awesome headphones at an excellent price.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones produce a soundstage that appears to come from in front of you, rather than inside your head. They also provide a balanced sound, with a clear mid-range, a tight, not boomy, bass, and smooth highs.
