Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5If you're looking for a good headphones that are noise cancelling that connect to multiple bluetooth devices at the same time and the sound is amazing get these headphones. They connect to my TV I can watch TV at the same time they will connect to my phone and if I get a call the phone will automatically take over instead of the TV beats does not do that. I'm not sure who came up with 22 hour battery life but it's more like 60 hours they last forever I feel like I never have to charge them. The only con is that they don't have an app to where you can control them a little bit more

Quality5 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I have quite a few headphones and I have been working on getting some wireless headphones that I can get the most out of. I think there is a fair amount to say about these but to cut to the chase, these are solid in construction (they feel like they cost this much), even though I have a large head, they don't press on my to make it uncomfortable, the noise canceling is great, the sound is nice and clean (balanced and without lots of bass), and they can be used as lined headphones if you run out of battery. Overall as great as expected. I like them over my Bose and aster and Dynamics.

My Perfect Air Travel Companion
Posted .Pros mentioned:Bass, Bluetooth, DesignI would recommend this to a friendI was in the market for a solid travel headset when I fly. I have earbuds, but for some reason they are just not comfortable on a long flight. I spent about 2 weeks and about 20+ hours of research, countless listening tests to find the right ones. I am on a plane usually 1-3 times a month. Having tested it with my first flight today, I can say with complete confidence, I am happy with my purchase Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 Wireless, is close to perfect, has so many positive things going for it, that it should be on your short list for Noise Canceling Travel Headphones Pros •Design: Clean, attractive and functional (I really like the look of the stainless Steel Rails) •Great Dynamics for a Bluetooth NC Headset, but even better with the provided cable •Excellent high frequency response, with a clear detailed midrange •Bass was the best of the bluetooth models tested, this unit has apt-x for increased sound quality •Excellent Battery life: Over 50% battery after 10+ hours of listening •Good Noise Cancellation •Excellent range, about 10 Meters (33 ft) •Comes with Wired Cable, USB Charger, Nice Case, and Airline adapter •Built in mics work well when used as with my cell phone to take calls •Comfortable fit •2 year warranty vs 1 year of many other brands •Bluetooth easy to connect, especially with the NFC (Near Field Connection option) Cons •Noise cancellation is always on in bluetooth mode, no way to turn off •A bit pricey •Noise cancellation is good, but Bose does a significantly better job at it •You can only sync 1 bluetooth device at a time, newer models like Bose QC35 allow for 2 •Minor Gripe: Small multifold manual that comes with it, just download a copy from their site Focus on Design: The bottom line is that they look great. The stainless steel rails blend in perfectly with the quality stitched leather top, which has minimal padding, but is very comfortable with its light weight. The foldable metal hinges allow you to pack it away in my laptop bag, but it still a tad bit on the bulky side. While I don't quite have dumbo ears, they are big, but the headset accommodated them quite well and were comfortable to wear for extended periods. These are the over the ear models. Soft Leather ear pads, while a little on the thick side, are very comfy I worn them for a 4 hour flight without feeling the need to remove or adjust them, they never got too warm that would make them uncomfortable to wear. Features: As I stated, I was looking for a travel headset that I could actually hear on a plane w/o killing my ears and these fit the bill. There were some feature I was looking for that were also important •aptX Bluetooth •active noise cancellation Both work remarkably well. Since AptX is always on with my phone, I can not say for sure if there is a noticeable difference in bluetooth, but I will testify that they do sound very good. I did a comparison listening test with the Bose QC35 and found the Bose to have better noise cancellation, but lacking in overall sound quality compared to the Momentum. The best way I can describe it is that the bass on the Bose seemed "overemphasized" and a little muddy. The clarity while still very good, was not on par with the Sennheiser. The noise cancellation worked very well, as I missed a few calls on my landline during my initial test. There was a greater impact on low frequency sound. Best example, I had my TV on and I could still hear voices, but the bass was almost completely gone. It does the job on a plane, but the Bose perform better in this area. Sound Quality: Pearl Jam "Just Breathe", vocals detailed and are expressive. Guitar strums sounded accurate and have fullness to it. My only minor gripe is the bass is not as perfect on bluetooth and sounded a little less clear then when I had them plugged into my phone directly. The sound is pleasant and not fatiguing and easily enjoyable for long listening sessions. While I am not a huge fan of rap music, I did try some bass heavy tracks primarily to use for comparison against the Bose QC35. The low end carries some weight, it's detailed, but not on par with a quality set of wired headphones. When plugged into my phone or laptop, the quality of bass improved in the detail and clarity. For the sake of this review, in bluetooth mode, this is what sold me the most over the Bose. Base is not overblown like so many headsets try to do, it's much more accurate and doesn't take away from the song. SIDE NOTES: •You can run this even with the battery dead, but expect to take a hit in sound quality •AptX works on more recent android devices, check your model for compatibility, no aptx on apple http://www.aptx.com/ Overall I would rate these headsets a 4.5/5 and 4.9/5 for bluetooth NC headphones. There are a lot of solid options in this price range, but I would definitely add this to your list of demos if you are in the market for set of wireless travel headphones

Outstanding earphones

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use3 out of 5These earphones are exceptional! The imaging is superb, and the separation is distinct. I also own Bose headphones but Sennheiser surpasses them. Listening to these headphones is an eargasmic experience. You will be engulfed by the sound. if you are an audiophile you will be profoundly impressed. If not, you will still be impressed.

Excellent Sound Quality!

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Pros mentioned:Noise cancellation, Sound qualityCons mentioned:Ease of use, HighsI got this because my Crusher Wireless Skullcandy headphones broke at the hinge. That seems to be a common breaking point with most of the plastic-type over-the-ear headphones that I have bought in the past. The major selling point then of course was the metal hinge here with these Sennheiser cans and the sounds quality I had heard so much about. They did not disappoint. They are now my primary pair I wear around the house, office, and home office when listening to music. The noise cancelling is decent but the overall sound from the highs to the lows is so immersive and clear. They are really wonderful and I was able to grab a pair on sale for $199.99. The only complaints I have had about these is: 1) These are hand crafted and so with the stitching you will notice a few spots where there is glue on the leather. Believe they did this to better secure the end stitches but I thought it was a defect or something gross at first. 2) I have had it happen many times when putting them on or taking them off and there is this real high pitch noise they let off. I think it is because of how they are grabbed and if you cover the mics a certain way. It is a bit difficult to replicate but happens occasionally and really annoying when it does.

Q: QuestionCan I use these just as a noise cancelling device? No music, TV, movies? Will they work, with a snoring partner for example?
Asked by Elmo.
- A:Answer They cut down on the sound, but aren't going to eliminate it, plus can't imagine sleeping in them, even though they are extremely comfortable. If you aren't concerned with comfort and just looking to block sound, recommend visiting a firearms shop and testing out what they've got.

Q: QuestionAre these headphones support High Resolution like Sony's?
Asked by Katruch74.
- A:Answer I replaced a pair of Sony’s and I liked these much more that the Sony’s. The Sony’s did have a much longer cord. The Sony's were wired and the Sennheeiser are both wired and Bluetooth. The Sony’s cushions fell apart and were difficult to find to replace until recently. I don’t see any wear from the Sennheiser’s at this point.

Q: QuestionWhy is it when I connect to my windows it sounds muddy in the back and when I plug it in with the aux it only plays on one side?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer I'm not sure about the muddy sound but regarding the aux only playing in one ear. It's because you didn't plug it all the way in on the headset. I believe you have to twist and push for it to go all the way in. Check out your manual for instructions. It happened to me too.

Asked by nitgoz.
