(Originally written by zvolaidge/translated from Audiofanzine FR)
- How long have you been using it?
I bought it in 2003 because I needed low-budget headphones to avoid disturbing my neighbors.
I chose this Philips SBC HP 800.
- Which features do you like the most / the least?
Pros: good sound at very high output volumes, long single-sided cable.
Cons: lack of sound clarity, lows and mids are to loud, no detailed signal reproduction. You'll have to apply some pressure on the ear cups to hear and feel everything.
Broken after one year even though I was very careful. You can swivel the ear cups but I don't recommend it because the axis wears out and the ear cups fall down.

They make you tired after only one hour.
- Did you try any other models before buying it?
No
- How would you rate its value for money?
Not good in spite of the price.
- Based on your experience, would you buy this product again?
Yes if I have no money and I need a pair of headphones.
But now that I can spend a bit more money, I recommend the Sennheiser HD650, which are wonderful for home studio applications.

Open headphone, bandwidth beyond the APRS 20-20000 of the manufacturer (I think that's true ^ _ ^), 5cm membrane, rather Designed for the DJ (a pace that sees its ) since you can turn the headphones.

used for over a year on low converters (sb. ..) I chose to have a cost drinking despite a tiny budget, which is great since it costs a thirty euros.

foam earphones are a bit firm also
in short it is a good headphone for dj or for those who love the multimedia 85db in the eardrum (there are) those are not the result of the purchase, homestudistes will like me easily tired s. but hey a break every half-hour does not hurt: p
it is probably far short of a HD600 but considering the price I would put even when 7
