White Sennheiser Mx500 Headphones For Mp3 Ipod Headset

Pros: price point, excellent sound quality
Cons: none, unless you want complete noise canceling

I'll preface this review by stating that I am not a huge electronics geek or audiophile. In fact, the only real reason that I own a pair of headphones this nice is because of my children. My daughter started on a listening program designed for children ...

Pros: 1. Crystal Clear Sound 2. Modular Parts 3. Durable
Cons: 1. Non Closed Headphone ( Read Review )

I've worked with Sennheiser equipment for a long time in professional audio ( theater mic systems ) and have been very pleased with their equipment. When I decided to buy a nice pair of over ear headphones, the first place I looked was Sennheiser - and ...

Pros: Excellent sound and comfort and price.
Cons: Longer cord, please.

I bought these as an interim set after giving up on my Shure E2 in-ear set. (You can read my review of the Shures at h ttp://www.epinions.com/content _214715698820). I had intended to just use the Sennheisers only until ...

Pros: Inexpensive; smooth imaging with an open and well-detailed sound in Q-ship packaging.
Cons: Barren low-end performance, poor isolation, iffy comfort, fragile connections and component materials.

The MX-500 earbuds are so much like the quintessential low-end Sennheiser product: good spatially with a well-detailed open-air sound, but painfully soft on outside noise isolation and weak in the knees in the mid-bass ranges and below. Sonically, I've ...

Pros: -- Clarity and Bass response
-- Price
-- Sennheiser reputation

Cons: Ear bud diameter is larger than some.

I got tired of listening to the cheap, uncomfortable ear buds I was using with my MP3 player and was hoping to find something that would partially satisfy my audiophile side. Having spent thousands on my home audio and theater system, I knew that there ...

Pros: good fit, good treble, excellent value, volume control on cord
Cons: distortion, unimpressive bass, short cord

After buying a new 4g ipod, I felt the need to buy some earbuds that would do my player justice. Having just spent 300 dollars on an mp3 player I wasnt really in a position to spend a whole lot of money on headphones either. So, after reading many ...

Pros: Sound reproduction is crisp and clear. Comfortable for hours of use.
Cons: Cheap volume control, bass could be improved, cheap case, earbuds are a bit long.

I bought these ear buds to use in quiet areas because my pmx60s from sennheiser leaks sound like crazy. I needed these to listen to while studying at school or at the library so they don't bother other people. I'm pleasantly surprised by the sound they ...

Pros: Compact with great sound quality, inline volume control, good value, comfortable
Cons: Cord gets stiff in the cold, volume control scratches

Background

I've had my Sony MDR-E827 Earbud Sport headphones for a good long time, and have been fairly happy with them. My complaints are that they don't always fit quite right, start to hurt after wearing for more than an hour or so,...

Pros: Amazingly comfortable after hours of use. Relatively inexpensive. Grey soundscape.
Cons: Grey soundscape. High impedance detrimental on portable devices.

Sennheiser is the kind of company which deserves all the praise which is lauded upon them. They've been making high-end microphones and headphones for years. In the past, a pair of high-quality headphones from Sennheiser would run you at least $250 or...

Pros: Good mids and highs, non-overpowering bass
Cons: Mid-bass a tad thin, flimsy volume control?

Two days ago I ordered a pair of these earbuds from Headroom (www.headphone.com), and they arrived this morning. I was listening to them since, comparing them to two of my sub-$30 Sony earbuds (MDR-E828LP and MDR-E848LP). How does the Sennheiser stack up...

Pros: Smooth sound, lightweight, detachable cord, look cool
Cons: Less than perfect in high frequencies, not a 'closed' design

I knew I wanted circumaural phones. So, at first, I tried the cheapies at Best Buy - a pair of Aiwa and Koss phones. In both cases, it felt like I was listening through a cardboard tube. The phones completely lacked high range frequency response - They...

Pros: Good overall quality for earbuds. Dirt cheap. Name brand recognition
Cons: none to speak of

First, I'd like to recommend the Etymotics earbuds to anyone who can afford the $270+ price tag. I would also recommend the Sony E-888 earbuds with their $80 cost. Both blow away this set of Sennheisers. However, the Senns only cost around $20. They...

Pros: Great sound reproduction, great pricing, carry case, volume control.
Cons: Delicate at cord connections, may not have loud enough bass for some.

I purchased a pair of Sennheiser MX500s about 5 months ago from Newegg.com for $12 after reading man ...

Pros: Incredibly light, crystal clear sound, easy on the ears and ergonomic.
Cons: Open construction leaves less to the imagination of people around you.

Having not grown up an audiophile or even anything close to that I can say this is truly my first experience into the world of hifi headphones and home audio and its luxuries of the ear. I have owned many audio devices and headphone sets over the ...

Pros: Small, cheap, good sound
Cons: None.

I've been using the same pair for the past three years. The set comes with two small ear buds, replacement foam pads that will get lost in pockets, bags or purses almost immediately, and a convenient plastic "winder" carrying case with which to ...
