    That's a year ago, I told myself it'd be to change my Philips HD-200. As a result, small budget does not help I chose this headphone in a supermarket.

    So now, what I most is the "hearsay" of the seller and the so-called best view of my headphone head replaced.
    Conclusion is a sound almost exactly the same as my previous headset: too low to cover the midrange and treble reasonable. Now it is true that one is low-end headphones. Note, for a positive, that this headphone just under the comic medium as my previous headset.

    After positioning is really not nice, the plastic slides that heats the ears (in addition to the fatigue bass sounds a bit much ...).
    Next greenhouse headphone head…

    Next greenhouse headphone head too much for my taste.
    The headphones are supposedly closed .... there is a view ... semi-closed rather, it is impossible to use for making voice for example.
    And finally the pon-pon, as soon as you move the head rub son and resonate in the cavity of the headphones. Basically if you move your head you have the right to hear the sound of rubbing on you son.

    In conclusion I will not repeat this headphone because I took my old and that the past has a brother who was able to time the fart with a headphone that's nice. I do not would note, just my opinion and I do not want to disassemble.

    I just want to say that a less expensive (eg the headphones mentioned at the top of my opinion) there are much better. So there must exist a plethora that will increase in this price range.

    Use headphones closed for making drums, acoustic guitar and singing.
    Isolation ambient fine, but surprising for the price.

    Obviously, this is the low end, and there is no use talking about "monitoring". Effective in the rle back musician, because of its medium of good quality making it vocal or instrumental perception trs comfortable for me is the key.

    Neutrality correct for 20 euros ...
    Submitted without drooling too serious, honorable and medium trs acute sufficiently clear.
    High levels of cash while it is the basis of a headphone ddi "-tl-fi multimedia." Use pro is conceivable.

    I use it for 1 year

    I have tried many headphones in the range DJ (HD25 hdj1000 ..) but this one does not make left.

    I love its weight, it's nice to wear for several hours; Insulation correct, is not in the ears!
    I do not like the son of 2 sides


    Warning this is not a DJ headphones (I did not buy elsewhere for that), do not mix with the evening because the volume is dead!
    Being educated away from home, ideal for time lost in the tgv!
    I would say money not bad, although I do not know the other headsets in this range.
    I do not do it again this choice because now I can put a little more money in a headphone!

    The Sennheiser HD 201's are a set of headphones, designed for use in the studio. While not the best studio headphones out there, they are still indeed intended for this kind of use and beyond. They serve really as a low end alternative to those who couldn't afford something like the HD 280's. I've used the HD 201's at a home studio where I work pretty consistently with the producer who owns it. We don't normally do bigger sessions in there, but he has two sets of these headphones as extras just in case they're needed. The only use that these will see is for monitoring during recording if there are a bunch of people there who need them. He's got a number of other better pairs of headph…

The only use that these will see is for monitoring during recording if there are a bunch of people there who need them. He's got a number of other better pairs of headphones that are the primary headphones for monitoring during recording for both myself as the engineer and the players on the session. While incredibly cheap, the HD 201's still do have the feel of being cheap. They're not the sturdiest headphones and I can see them breaking rather easily, although the ones I've used have worked fine without any issues yet. They're also not the most comfortable headphones, so I wouldn't recommend them if you're going to be doing long studio sessions with them. As far as sound quality is concerned, it's pretty middle of the road here and definitely not suitable really for checking mixes on or anything where critical listening is necessary. The price will certainly drive some people to buy these, and while they're fine as back up pairs, if you're looking for a go to set of headphones it's definitely going to be worth it to spend a bit more money on something like the Sennheiser HD 280's, which I believe are some of the best available in their price range. If you can only spend what the 201's cost, you're going to get what you pay for...

    - For how long have you been using it?
    1 year.

    - What thing do you like most/least about it?
    It's cheap & light.
    But it's cheap.
    Has no bass, no depth, no oomph.
    Treble is aggressive.
    Very very poor sound isolation from outside noise.
    Overall a bad set of earphones.
    Fairly comfortable, though.

    - Did you try many other models before getting this one?
    Nah, went for the cheapest Sennheiser i could find.

    - What is your opinion about the value for the price?
    Not that impressed, really. Philips does better for the money.

    - Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?...
    Nope. I'd either get a more expensive model or go for a Philips in the same price range.
