sennheiser px200 vs px100
i never write reviews but what prompted me was the the large number of reviews from other websites which stated that the px100 was superior to the px200. i currently own hd555 and i love the flat sound it gives which allows me to crank up the volume without annoying or hurting my ears. i was looking for a pair of portable headphones similar to the sound of the 555 which i could listen to for several hours without listener fatigue.

i had tested the px100 and was satisfied with the sound. on the day that i went to purchase it the shop asked if i wanted to try the px200. i tested the 2 headphones side by side for 30 minutes. even though i was satisfied with the sound of the px100 i decided to buy the px200 for the following reasons:

1. the bass is better
2. the midrange and treble are clearer
3. it is a lot more efficent. on some tracks i had to crank up the
volume to full on the px100 but i only had to turn the volume on at
3/4 on the px200 to achieve the same volume
4. it isolates sound
5. even though the sound is less flat than the px100 it does not give
me any listening fatigue like i get from cheap headphones

if i had not listened to the px200 i would have been more than satisfied with the px100. but after having tested the px200 i decided to buy it.

i hope this is helpful.

Just Great
I have owned a pair of these headphones for nearly 2 years. I bought them to replace a much more expensive pair of Sony headphones and they are just as good. I have travelled with them all over the world and they haven't broken yet. I think you would have to spend some serious money to get better. I can easily tell the difference between my CD palyer and iPod with these phones. The extra detail and imaging that you can hear from the CD is easily handled by these phones.

I can't fault them and they come in a well thought out carrying case too.

near perfect mini headphones
I've had a pair of these for a year and they're pretty much unbeatable. A good well-balanced sound, they are semi-closed back in style with enough bass for you not to bother with the bass-boost feature on your player. Not thick and heavy as some closed back types are, they work well with all music types from metal to vocals to classical strings and jazz. They fit my head (that's saying something!) and have a typically sennheiser soft pad fit to the ear, VERY comfortable for listening over long periods. Also, not only can no-one else tell what you're listening to, they also do a great job of reducing external white noise so are right at home in the typical public-transport environment of the mp3 listener and as a result make listening at low volumes a pleasure.

However.......the universal joint 'pins' on the drive units are made of plastic. One of mine sheared off recently, looks like a weak point in their construction. Be careful how you store them, don't just throw them in a bag. I will still be buying another pair though.
