Superb sound & isolation
Choice of headphones is a very personal thing but these are the best I have ever had. Full stop.
The choice of fittings mean you can get the perfect fit for you, the volume control is really handy as is the clip so you don't have wires trailing everywhere.
But the sound is just fantastic! I listened to Revolver by the Beatles and heard things I have never heard before - and I've had the album on vinyl and CD and must have listened to it countless times. Plus the headphones really cut out external noise - even on a busy tube train.
Only negative comment - the little case split after just a month but it's still usable. And maybe it's my fault for cramming it with other accessories as well as the headphones.
Really excellent sound.
Meant to give them 5 stars - can't fathom out how to change my rating!
Not an audiophile, but these sound absolutely fantastic. I've just bought my first Ipod and I took note of all the Amazonians out there who recommended buying a separate (better) pair of earphones than those supplied. I compared my new Sennheisers directly with the rubbish ones that came with the Ipod and couldn't believe the difference in quality of sound - a completely different experience.
The volume control is a nifty addition, and the noise isolating feature seems to work fine. Unlike some earphones these are very comfortable to wear, even over long periods. The sound is crisp and clear, and I would say that for the price this product is a steal - very, very good quality. It's a real pleasure to listen to music through these Sennheisers, and I would thoroughly recommend them.
Great kit but watch out...
These earphones are awesome, my last pair were the best I've owned yet. Impressive on the bass, ear plug design blocks out background unwanted noise for a clearer, inimate sound.
I recommend these to anyone. However my most recent pair I bought (I lost my last pair) I bought for £18. This shows as I have my suspicions they aren't genuine. There is bare cable both ends of the volume switch and the logos are peeling off. The sound quality has never been as good as I remember from my previous pair... I have only had these two months!
My advice, spend the money (£30+) from a reliable dealer who you can bank is selling orginal quality stuff.
Even on my "fake" goods, the packaging is uncanny and comes with all the bits, pouch, interchangable ear plugs... DONT BE FOOLED!
