Sennheiser HD280Pro: A Dollar-for-Dollar Headphone Champ?

bysymbiosis Jun 8, 2006
83 Helpfuls 84 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Excellent sound quality, construction, and comfort. Price. Noise blocking.
Cons Slightly quirky appearance, ear cups can get a bit warm with extended use.
Recommended it? Yes

Over the past few years, I have tried out (and reviewed) many sets of headphones from many different manufacturers. I have also tried a wire variety of styles and price ranges, from the $20 terrible sounding glorified earplug that is the Koss Spark Plug, all the way up to the large, over-the-ear,...

74 Helpfuls 75 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros They sound great, and they reduce outside noise.
Cons They don't last.
Recommended it? No

I really love my Philips HDD6330 30GB MP3 player . And I listen to it all the time, just about every day actually. Most of the time, I'm using my Philips HE-592 headphones with them because of the absolutely amazing 3-D sound they provide. But the way in which they deliver that wonderful sound can...

*This review is based on initial impressions. Long term review will be added later.*

I was looking for a good pair of noise cancelling headphones that wouldn't leave me in the poorhouse. I'd used a pair of Bose at the Apple store, but they were as expensive as my iPod. Then I went to a... Read full review »
