SENNHEISER Headphones Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The HD201 is the entry level headphones from Sennheiser. Considering the price you pay, it is value for money. However, if you are able to pay more, get a higher end Sennheiser headphones. I have a HD205 and it goes without saying that the HD205 is better than the HD201.
What I do like about the HD201 is that it is lightweight and it is comfortable and fits round the ears very well. The closed ear headphones also reduces some ambient noise. However, it is not a very "loud" headphone and when I turned to maximum volume on my player, I could hear a slight distortion.
Below are the technical specifications:
Acounstic principle: Dynamic, closed
Ear coupling: Circumaural
Frequency response: 21-18,000 Hz
Max SPL at 1kHz, 1 Vrms: 108 dB
THD at 1kHz, 100 dB SPL: < 0.7%
Impedance: 24 Ohms
Weight (without cable): 165 g
Signal cable: 3 m copper cable (OFC)
Connector/adapter: 3.5 mm stereo jack with 6.3 mm adapter

Skullcandy (Product Out Of Date, Newer Version Available) SCS-SCBC Skullcrushers Stereo Headphones (Black / Checker) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Summary: The Skullcrusher line of headphones is one of Skullcandy's more popular lines and there is a reason for that. There is nothing else out there that will be able to put out as much bass as these without an external amplifier. Now too much can be a bad thing but luckily the built-in amplifier is fully adjustable. They are very comfotable, I can wear them for 8 hours+ and I barely notice they are there.
Pros: Bass strength is second to none. Bass and treble quality is good for stereophones. Strong 1.5m (5ft) cord. Great build quality and comfort. Package includes a 1/4" adapter, airline adapter, and a drawstring travel bag to hold it all. Great price. Lifetime warranty! (Requires registration but who cares, I'll say it again, lifetime warranty!) I love them for gaming. They are fully collapsible and well padded. I can wear for 8 hours+ no problem. They won't fall off of my big head and shouldn't on smaller heads either.
Cons: Mids can be a bit muddled especially with higher bass songs/games. The built in amp requires a single AA battery. The bass adjustment is a little sensitive at times. Some songs will sound bright (mostly classical music). The bag is a little small, I kinda have to work the phones into them. Plastic is fragile but earpieces are strong. Battery life with recharables stinks and disposable alkaline batteries almost have too much punch. They aren't vented so expect some ear sweat if it's hot out.
Comments: The way they get all there bass there are actually 2 30mm drivers. One for treble and upper mids, one 100Hz driver for bass and lower mids. The design does come at a price. These are only stereophones, so they don't have any surround support and can only put out so many sounds at once. So if your are listening to a huge symphony of sound there may be some loss but that will be the case with any phones, in this price range.
UPDATE!!! 11/5 I recently had to return my phones after just a couple months of use as the cable at the connector got loose and sound cut in and out. I mailed them the headphones Monday, they arrived at their warehouse on Wed, and they just shipped me new ones FRIDAY!!! That is FAST. 2 day replacement is insanely good. I am literally freaking out. I think they have a lifetime customer.

Skullcandy SCS-SCBP3.5 Skullcrushers Subwoofer Stereo Headphones (Black Pinstripe) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)These headphones a great if you crave bass. These headphones are awesome for watching movies when you don't want to bother anyone else. When you put them on you'll notice they do a considerably good job with noise cancelling and when you watch a movie or play a game they make you feel like you have a home theater system on your head. As for music they are best for hip hop/rap, electro, and any music with heavy bass below 50Hz.Although they are not so good for rock, heavy metal or any other type of rock because there is a gap in the frequency response of the main driver and the sub woofer where most of the bass in rock music is. I was disappointed by that. When I first saw these I was instantly in love with them and I didn't bother to read about them or let the reviews change my point of view, and if your like me this is probably the case. If you are gonna get them you'll have the mess with the equalizer of your audio source to make them sound how you want them to. They seem like a really cool thing, o look these have sub woofers in them how awesome is that. But keep in mind they are "vibrating" sub woofers and do NOT perform like a normal sub woofer and like I said lack bass in the 50Hz to 200Hz region. That's about where a lot of a bass guitars sound and where most of your vibration occurs. So if you do get these don't expect then to be act like miniature sub woofers cause they are meant to shake more than they are to reproduce sound. And also they headband is not exactly as what is pictured, it has a soft foam piece where the top of your head meets the headband, the new headband is more comfortable than what is pictured and is very strong and astonishingly light for it's size. These are a great set of headphones. They are very good at keeping outside noise out and youe noise in. Therefore you can be blasting these suckers and the person beside you will hardly even notice. The SQ is great and easily compares to some of the more recognized headphones companies such as Sennheiser which retail for around $100 - $150. Overall they are one of the best headphones you can ge for the price even if you aren't looking for the sub woofer, they offer superior noise canceling abilities, great SQ , are very light, and have a sub woofer in them. There isn't much more more you can ask for for $40-$50. If you don't mind the small region of bass between 50-200Hz that isn't as strong as with a conventional set of headphones then I would highly recommend these. And if you are worried about what I said then you should go and heck out Evergreen Technologies RumbleFX Force Feedback headphones, they are the best you can get with subwoofers in them, very loud, 40mm drivers, and light, although they don't offer as much noise canceling as the SkullCrushers do, if you do want to get a pair a the EverGreen Technologies you'll have to look around hard because rumor has it they are stopping production on the universal pair but if you don't need the universal pair just grab the AudioFX version with an USB connection instead. They are definitely worth it. Or if you prefer something smaller try the in ear Pelican Earsubs, only $20-$30 and have basically all the characteristics of the skullCrushers in a earbud form. There are also a new set of earbuds coming out soon caled the bass freguency V-Moda earbuds.

A pair of mini-subwoofers against your skull makes the bass feel like a swarm attack by the renegades of funk, soldiers of Jah, hip-hop nation, and a 1970s version of the Kiss Army, all at once.

Skullcandy Agent Headphones CMYK Print, One Size Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I love these headphones--the shape, the style, the sound quality are all amazing. The style is one of the biggest draws for me, however. The graphics on the headphones are cool, unusual, and always draw attention.
The only problem with Skullcandy products is that they break SO. QUICKLY. The wire is especially sensitive, and although the company has made moves to help with this problem (the wires on more expensive Skullcandy headphones are woven fabric, which I find protect more), my headphones usually only last a few months. There is a limited lifetime warranty on all Skullcandy products, but you must pay half the cost for a new set of headphones, and shipping to send your old pair out to the company. All in all, it ends up costing you a lot of money.
With these headphones, either be prepared to keep paying lots of money or treat your headphones like priceless china.

Skullcandy Double Agent Wireless Headphone and Music Player - Brown Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Originally I was looking for some sort of wireless headphone to work with a non-bluetooth MP3 player, and wasn't able to find anything without an adapter that was generally larger than the player itself. I had been checking these out as a potential solution, but could not find any reviews that weren't straight from the companies description of the product, to help me decide. My BF solved my indecision and just bought them for me.
Personally, I love them, but I can see a lot of things other people may not like. Here's just the facts.1.Wireless and really light.
2.The sound is not Connoisseur quality. If you are used to cheap earbuds like me, then they are fine, if you favor a robust pair of Sennheisers, I wouldn't risk it. Low and bassy, but the highs are muffled.
3.Headset is tight, which although good for me, may not be good for people with larger heads or who are more sensitive to excessive pressure on their ears. The good side is they don't fall off during anything, jogging, gym, working on projects, random frolicking in your house, etc.
4.I dig the oddball color combinations, but other people may find them too flashy. There is an all-black one however.
5.Interface is totally no frills. play/pause, volume, and next. You can put your music on it in folders, but not actually jump from folder to folder. (or at least the instructions don't tell say you can.)Again, plus for me, waste less time preparing my music and spend more time actually hitting the gym, but could be a minus for many.
5. No shuffle feature. I never use shuffle. (going from classical to house to black metal in 10 minutes makes me neurotic..)
6. Hour long charge gets you about 8 hours of play. charge via USB.(joy!)
7. You can very clearly hear button clicks while wearing them. Not so good if you want to go 50 songs forward.
8. Comes with a cord to plug into an mp3 player if needed.
9. Interface and charge are totally USB plug and play.
10.Comes with 1 GIG SD.
11. Buttons are easy to reach and press, but the symbols are not very raised. May take a few trys to get the right button before you get used to it.
Basically, if you just need a no-frills wireless solution for an active lifestyle, these fit the bill. What I imagine to be the big issues for most people are the sound quality and the tightness. Although I am very pleased with them, I would advise most people to try them on and listen to them first if you can.
