    Great for MP3 player

    to use a home studio to avoid too much color

    he'll warm your ears and shake your head and it is a bit heavy to medium porter.le foam is high in calories

    its low and thereby boosted the treble too low
    it depends on the use that is actually
    listen the TV sound, or a player.
    I use it for 1 year
    I've worn many hats. I owned another brand of headphone that was much better (but higher price)
    value for money is say "normal"

    bassy

    The Sennheiser HD 457 are really good headphones and they are really stylish at the same time. They come with this metallic type finish and look really futuristic. You can use these just to listen to music in your mp3 player, or if you are feeling brave you can mix in them. But they will give your mix a very “bassy” feel to it. Not to sure if they have to much low end or not, when I listened to Kid Rock in them they sounded great, a lot of bass and thump. I wouldn’t try to mix in them though. For some reason my mixing headphones need to be very flat to my liking in order for me to get a clean mix with them.

For some reason my mixing headphones need to be very flat to my liking in order for me to get a clean mix with them.

    The price of these isn’t bad at all, they are very affordable depending on when and where you purchase them. I am curious why they are HD though, to me they really don’t have a high quality sound that really sticks out. The are decent at best and really bassy, not saying they are bad though. I am just really picky when it comes to headphones because there are so many different ones on the market today. But with the price you will spend on these you will get some good phones no doubt. But if you are looking to get good mixing headphones for your music. Look into some higher end sony’s or even yamaha‘s.

    But take the Sennheiser HD 457’s with you on a plane and you will be happy. (even though they really don’t cancell out external noise). They still have enough bass so you cant hear whats going on around you. The loudness isn’t real loud, not that I want it to be. But I guess you could call these good headphones in the listening category, but to someone who wants to mix, they wouldn’t do the job for me. If you want to enjoy music from your ipod these will work great!

    I leave 1 / 2 hour on my ears and I have a headache. Worthless, buy sennheiser more elaborate only its price is justified.

    I have much apreciated for a while, especially for its price!
    The characteristic I like most is that it's really lightweight.
    Very good price / quality ratio!
    In the beginning it's really already in luxury!

    Used in recent months.
    It is lightweight, comfort level is OK, provided the proper position
    I was looking for a headset to plug in my guitar amp. no use for the prvu home studio.
    Return of good clean sounds, so good on the saturated.
    Too bad the cable is not single-stranded.
    Report qualitprix good, I did not get any better (yet!)

    I've had two months.
    I have an old HD414 and I thought to find something equivalent.
    Plutt low price, but not low trs.
    On costs, there is far too low; APRS correction, the sound is slightly less than the HD414 Dfine.
    I do not have that choice would do.

    - I've had 4 years, it works well trs

    - The most comfort, good return of acute mdiums, 3 meters of cable, there is a good rendition of the sounds.
    - Cons: No trs rich bass, was still acceptable, but it's hard to diffrencier diffrent low notes.

    - RAPORT qualitprix is ​​rather good for beginners dja it well, and then els for parents too, they will not have to cover their ears when you play the scratch.

    - For now, yes I Refer this choice.

    I have this headphone for several days. I use it to Listen to stereo amp drives a Yamaha mid-range.

    Good:

    * Cheap!
    * Lightweight
    * Like many on the head, loosely
    * Good momentum, its pretty clear

    Not good:

    * Too much bass! Personally I correct with my amp SETTING THE, but avoid if you have a string that does not allow to lower the bass.

    Conclusion:

    A good little headphones very cheap and honnte trs. It will not serve me so he would often pay more damage t ... But only feature array with a qualisation, because of the accentuation of the nut low!

    - What is the specific feature you like best, the least?
