Behringer HPS3000

Value For Money : Excellent
I've had 2-3 weeks. It is very light and comfortable, it is forgotten. It is fairly well insulated from outside noise (that is what is asked), but the converse is true. I already have a Sennheiser open (neutral very well for the mix but lacks bass), a audiotechnica closed (and very in both directions) that embellished the music with too low a bit too present.
The behringer is the most balanced of the three. I do not understand the bad reviews of the two previous opinions. Especially vis-à-vis the treble, I find them very good and allowed me to hear details of some of my CD collection that I had never heard (the sound of the singers mouth before singing and other noises atmosphere). I find it much better than my audiotechnica which cost me 13 years ago more than 100 Euros. I noticed a small bump in the lower midrange but nothing annoying. This is more of a sonic character than a real defect. To return to the criticisms of previous opinions, it may not be suitable for all styles of music! But I doubt it because the mixes I've done (rock, heavy) with stand quite well on many systems.
The price / quality ratio is excellent but there is certainly much better and more expensive!
I re-file a notice in 6 months to see ....
At the moment I do not regret my purchase, far from it.

EDIT 03/06/07

Well I realize it's been almost 4 years that I have this headphone ...
Its still ok level. Apart from that famous hump around 200 Hz this headphone is very analytical and allows me to make mixes that go everywhere. A good mix on my HPS3000 sounds like death when I switch on my Fostex PM1!
The plastic is a bit unladen, two small pieces of the coup failed and we must take care of it. I confirm what I have written four years ago. This headphone is top to work on a mix or from the time one has to integrate its flaws. This headphone can become tiring to just listen to music because it forgives nothing. You will hear a plethora of details about your CD recordings. No test the indifferent ... that's what I like about a monitoring headphones! I'm not a pro, just a passion for music and home studio, not necessarily wealthy and this headphone is for me an excellent deal. If he comes to die, I will redeem one without hesitation.
