espressoman's Full Review: Sennheiser PX 100 Consumer Headphones
After all the rave reviews on the Sennheiser PX 100 headphones I decided to buy them. I compared them with the iAudio ear buds, iPod ear buds and low cost Philips headphones. The Sennheiser blew away both ear buds and sounded much better than the Philips. Then I plugged the Sennheiser into my high end computer, iAudio and iPod. The sound quality from my computer and iPod were above average. My iAudo X5 sounded the best by far. Of course, I contribute the better sound quality of the iAudio because of the 4 sound settings and EQ. I can get as much or little bass and treble as I prefer. I did find that you have to up the volume to about 20 percent or more to get better sound quality.
I prefer the open ear design because I have to be able to hear people around me and listen for the phone.
However, the Sennheiser PX 100 just does not have the rich clear sound I was hoping for. The best way to describe the sound is if you put cotton balls in your ears and try to listen to these headphones. The sound is slightly muffled.
Other annoyances are the 2 cords coming from the ear pieces sometimes brush against my cheek and drive me crazy. One cord coming from just one side would have been much better. And the phones fit a little too tight and become uncomfortable after a short time.
However, the Sennheiser PX 100 is still a good choice for the price. Just do not expect the clarity you would get from a high end headphone.
