HD 206 Stereo Headphone

I was pleasantly surprised to hear decent sound quality for a product that has been discontinued by Sennheiser. It's nice to have a nice lightweight headset without the pain in the rear coily cord that comes with the Sennheiser HD 280 pro headphones. The sound quality is very good especially considering the fact that these are made with thin wires. I have purchased Pro Audio headphones for 4x the cost as these that had extremely poor sound quality compared to these. I use them for mixing my sound on my MPC one, and really, they are much more comfortable than my HD280 pro model, and like I stated before, with a nice long cord that isnt coiled to get tangled up in everything. I actually prefer these to my HD280 pro model due to the good sound, comfort, and longer cable. It's too bad Sennheiser discontinued these, but maybe they'll come out with a pair with a more sturdy cord. That is the only downside is the thin cord. I see future problems with the durability of the cord on these, but we'll just have to wait and see. Sennheiser has always made quality products. These are not noise cancelling, but they are stil good enough to use for professional mixdowns on my MPC One.

These are comfortable and the sound quality is great. Cord is long which is both a blessing and a curse. I no longer feel tethered 3 feet from my laptop, but it's so long I keep most of it wrapped up so it won't catch on anything. Foam earpieces can make your ears feel hot, but you can buy covers to stop this. These are not noise cancelling so you'll get bleed through room ambience. Otherwise about the best you can get for the money.

Oh boy are these cheap, and that is not a bad thing. I've been using these a couple of weeks now and it's incredible. Now I'm sure what I'm getting out of this is what people call the "v sound" with boosted top and bottom end, but it's some of the most incredible sound I've gotten from a pair of headphones. I'm not an audiophile. As long as what I'm using isn't bluetooth I'm generally fine, but I'm still going to love a real good sound. I've had headphones more expensive than these that both fit and sounded worse than these. The main things I'm worried about are the wire and how strong the headphones themselves are. I'll have to be careful with the wire for sure, but these aren't going anywhere that anything could possible snap them. Noise cancelling? Nah man. They don't let everything in by any means, they're not open back. It's not letting everything in and it's not letting everything out. But I hear more things through these than I have in like the last 5 pairs of headphones I've owned. This isn't a bad thing. I would often be hard to get the attention of because of it. I can hear what's going on around me but it's not going to ruin my experience with anything. You can do a lot worse than these for 30 bucks. You can do worse than these for 100 bucks. These are cheap headphones that don't sound like garbage and fit *comfortably* for cheap. Yeah I can safely recommend these.

Great sound for the price! Plugged these in and the levels are great with little to no distortion.

I bought these to replace some Sennheiser HD 202 headphones that finally wore out. I was so sad because the 202 headphones were such great quality and were highly affordable. Apparently, they do not sell them anymore. These cost almost twice as much. They are very comfortable and the sound quality is good, but the right headphone doesn't work properly. It sounds muffled for a large range of sounds. The left side sounds great. If the right side was not muffled, I would give them 5 stars as the sound quality in the left side is quite good for the price range. I assume there was a quality control issue. They still sound okay for most stuff, but they don't work at all when watching videos with binaural audio.

I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of sound from these headphones. Reviews had me leery of bass from them but not only is it there it's accurate, they are not Thumpers like the dude down the block who rattles your windows when he drives by( I hate Thumpers). The highs are the same, accurate and none of the Ssssibalance you usually get from modestly priced Headphones and the Vocal/Mids are just in your face, clear and hot. I should mention I use a tube headphone pre-amp for Headphones and don't need to go over half Volume to get what I want. If you're on the fence about the SENNHEISER HD 206 don't be for the price your getting a good product with a Soundscape that rivals much higher priced Headphones, Just sayin.

J avais deja achete le jbl 500 mais il m en fallait un 2eme,simple et toujours filaire.je suis ravi de ce choix. Les graves n etant pas amplifiees, le son est plus naturel et d excellente qualite.bonne sensibilite, puissant. Aussi bien qu un modele plus cher.simple donc fiable.fil plus long que le jbl donc aisance dans les mouvements.bon ŕendu dans toute la gamme de frequence avec une bonne separation des instruments.clarte de la voix.agreable a porter car plus de place pour la tete.je ne regrette pas cet achat surtout pour le rapport qualite prix...

Headphones exceed pricepoint. Got it while it was on sale, and its great for listening to music, watching videos, etc. The wire is really long, though that can get in the way, it won't pull on you if you have to get up briefly. I can wear them for long hours, and I wear glasses which is great as well. The headphones fit comfortably over my ears and don't clamp down on my head. Sound depth is lacking however, so don't expect great bass or trebles.

Als Ersatz für meinen defekten Kopfhörer habe ich mir diesen Sennheiser gekauft. Ich mache Radio und brauche lediglich während des Aufsprechen und dem nachträglichen Bearbeiten Kopfhörer. Zum Hören von Musik wäre meine Kaufentscheidung sehr wahrscheinlich etwas anders ausgefallen. Und jetzt kommt das Aber: Musik, und da kommt es auf die Qualität der Quelle an, kommt auch mit diesem Sennheiser sehr sauber rüber. Also Dateien in Wave-Format oder hoher mp3 Auflösung. Bin absolut zufrieden und begeistert, denn auch wenn die Höhen bei 18 kHz enden, so bemerke ich nicht wirklich einen Unterschied. Außengeräusche werden minimiert, die Ohrpolster umschließen sauber meine Ohren (normale Kopfform, normale Ohren...). Auch längeres Tragen ist aufgrund des geringen Gewichts angenehm. Fazit: klare Kaufentscheidung zum kleinen Preis.

llevo en el mundo del audio muchos años y esta marca siempre es de fiar. si, es un modelo bajo.. y no se debe usar para equipos de sonido potentes... pero para el uso diario, ver la tele, ordenador y demas, son de lo mejor. tienen mejor calidad y frecuencias de sonidos, mejores que muchos que valen el doble.. y el hecho de que apenas estan fuera de stock lo dice todo.

Puede que para ser solo audifonos sean un poco costosos, por lo que se tiene que estar seguro el uso que se dara, por el costo no se deben esperar materiales premium, compararlos con los de un valor de $3k a $4k no es congruente, pero tampoco es que sean de mala calidad, tienen un buen nivel de volumen aunque no son para ser usados por cualquier dispositivo, se requiere que la PC o celular tengan un buen amplificador de sonido de lo contrario se escucharan con poco bajo de volumen por lo que su uso es mejor con equipos dedicados solo a la reproduccion de audio por lo mismo es que su cable es lo suficientemente largo, pero no confundir no son para estudio ya que por el costo no se aproximan a esa calidad de audio si fuera el caso mejor opten por equipos diseñados para esa funcion, sorprende lo ligeros que son y comodos con buen aislamiento no el mejor pero muy aceptable, tengo unos Marshall Major III y si bien en audio y aislamiento se quedan muy por debajo, mundos diferentes, pero en comodidad execelentes y para uso de diario me ban mucho mejor. En resumen son de batalla, muy comodos y ligeros, buen audio y volumen conectando al equipo adecuado, para un uso de oficina van bien pero en verdad no son audifonos para ser usados por cualquiera.
