Sennheiser HD201S 3.5mm/ 6.3mm Connector Around-Ear Hi-fi Headphone Sennheiser HD201S 3.5mm/ 6.3mm Connector Around-Ear Hi-fi Headphone

Pros: Love the sound and quality of these headphones. I got them for $11 thru Slickdeals and I do not regret the purchase.

Cons: Docked an egg because the cord is very long. Easy fix if you tie it together.

Pros: Seems to be well constructed, lightweight & comfortable to wear. Great sale price too.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: I have purchased 3 of these because everyone in my house wants their own pair!

Pros: Very comfortable, block most external noises, have very good sound, light weight.

Cons: The wire seems a bit thin, especially for its length, and am worried about how long before it gets an internal break in it.

Other Thoughts: I use these when playing my electric guitar. They are very comfortable, have good sound (so others don't have to hear me), and block external noises (like a couple of teenage daughters bickering). It is so easy to go to my "happy place" when playing.

I found these after trying three other types/brands of headphones, which failed for various reasons like hurting my ears, poor sound, poor isolation from external noises.

Pros: Good quality!

Cons: none so far.

Pros: Inexpensive (even more so on sale)

Reasonably accurate, smooth and clear for the price point

More comfortable than many of a similar size

Minimal sound leakage

Low impedance good for portable audio players, phones, computer audio, etc

Cons: 10' cord way too long for portable use

Cord thin, fragile, as are the strain reliefs at the cups.

Far less bass than most cans this size, but at least it's reasonably controlled bass.

Poor sensitivity (efficiency), despite the low impedance they can't produce much volume on today's artificially volume limited devices like MP3 players and phones.

On a med to large head the plastic has to flex, leading to a suspicion that eventually the plastic will crack apart as it is a rigid type, not the polypropylene on some of their other cans like HD202.

Looks cheap even compared to others in same price range.

Other Thoughts: They're a good value but I can't recommend them for music. If you use a decent headamp they seem to produce more bass but without one the bass is lifeless, lacking. To be fair most cans at this price can't do bass well so it seems Senn went for less bass rather than uncontrolled bass, as the driver in these is below average size for the cup size and sits in an internal rectangular shaped plastic chamber. The cup size plays no part in the acoustics, it's just that size to allow an around-ear style ear pad.

Best used for voice or general computer sound. Might be OK for gaming but nowhere near as good for that as Senn's HD500 series cans since they have substantially more soundstage.

Like many low cost closed cans the treble isn't very precise. Not muddy and better than some at the same price, yet worse than some at same price that are open cups.

If you need closed cups, at similar price from Senn I recommend instead going with HD 428, 202, 203, or if open cups are okay, especially HD419 as it is the clear value leader under $35.

Pros: low price
good quality

Cons: none really

Other Thoughts: Great deal for $13. Comfortable, decent sound. Many people complain about lack of base, but all headphones have trouble with lows. Much better than other brands i have paid twice as much for. At this price, give them a try.

Pros: I just using them as PC speakers, so I don't bother my wife with the noise. Work great for me and her :-)) Light weight, comfortable.

Cons: none

Pros: They look like nice headphones

Cons: Unable to remove from Nupont Polymer Nucular Apocolyse resistant packaging. Will try melting it open with cutting torch when I get home.

Other Thoughts: Update - Package opened. Definitely worth $12 & FS.

Pros: Bought them on sale for $14.00, so not a lot of money wasted.

Cons: The jack became loose within 1 week of moderate use, and now is completely useless. I have to hold it by hand in a very specific manner to get any sound working. Only plugged into a few different devices before it became this way.

Pros: Fairly decent headphones. Got another pair when they were 12 bucks you can't beat them at that price. Bass isn't amazing but what do you expect for 20-30$ headphones. I use them with my desktop. They aren't great for music but sound quality is fair for games and movies. Long cord, I find them comfortable when I game for multiple hours they don't hurt my head like other headphones I've owned.

Cons: Wire is rather thin and bass isn't great. Besides the wire being a little thin I would say the way they adjust isn't great but it hasn't caused any problems as of 6 months.

Other Thoughts: They seem rather durable, dropped them multiple times about 3 feet onto hardwood and that plastic hasn't broke on my first pair and I've had them about 6 months. Good value for the sale price especially. Good product hopefully it will be awhile before I need to use the other pair but highly recommend them if you want comfy basic headphones.
