HD 206 Stereo Headphone

I had Sennheiser headphones since the 70's and they always were top of the range. I was looking for simple, cheap headphones and stumbled over these. My use would be for HAM Radio. They arrived and I got a lovely surprise: they sound well above their price point, in fact they are excellent even for classical music. Ok, they are made entirely from light plastik, making them super light. They are very comfortable thanks to the very good and comfy padding. Overall headphones you can easily wear for hours! You get a very nice set from a real brand with excellent reputation for little money! Recommended!

Good sound, but every move of the head or touch of the headphones or cable is transmitted to the ears, due to the cheap plastic construction. Price good and sound clear of you don't move your head too much.

I am not an expert in headphones etc but I was looking for a set that would give me clarity and deeper sound quality like my NAIM Cube speaker which I love. I bought Bose Sports Noise Cancelling in ear buds, based on reviews, and returned them immediately after 1 hour ... I disliked their bulkiness and they sounded a bit "tinny". I did some research and found that music studios use Sennheiser (never heard of them before) so I ordered the in ear Sennheiser which were okkkk but found that they worked better for me wearing them upside down and only then the ear buds didn't continuously fall out and the sound was better. However, I still wasn't getting that deeper base sound that I craved. Based on reviews i.e. build quality etc I decided to chance my luck (wasn't still sure based on the price) with the HD 206 and instantly I knew I had found what I had been looking for. Plus point being that they are also really comfortable especially when you fall asleep with them still wrapped around your head and they are quite robust. However, being a bit bulky, I use my in ear Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 In Ear Bluetooth when I am out and about. As for the sound, although they provide good base, it can sound a little muffled but way better than the in ear phones. And the best bit .....the price. I never expected to get this sound quality for this price. It's assumed the more you pay the better but not in this case. I bought another set of over the ear Sennheiser but they were not on par with the HD 206's so back they went. I have ended my search altogether and now just use these.

good value and sound

I've bought several of these over the years. I love the comfort, fit and sound. However this latest pair have a noticeably poorer build quality. Everything feels brittle and flimsy, I don't think they will last long.

I have bought a lot of new headphones, a lot of them sound muddy. I keep buying these. They are nice & clear sounding

Headphones are comfortable and have good sound quality. They are a good buy at the price.

I have a very expensive pair of Sennheiser headphones but they're packed away and I can't get to them. Last week I bought a portable CD player which I'm pleased with. They came with earphones - the ones you pop into your ears and they are good but uncomfortable. I decided to get this inexpensive pair of Sennheisers which arrived today. Boy, are they good. I never expected great results from the price they cost but I'm delighted to report that they're brilliant. I have no hesitation in recommending them. And Amazon Prime is such a boon when you want something quickly. Great stuff, Amazon, and THANK YOU.

ottime cuffie a costo basso medio la marca d'altronde e' una certezza e' la seconda volta che le compro a distanza di tanti anni purtroppo il cane mi ha mangiato il filo e le ha rovinate ,hanno un suono davvero bello soprattutto con i bassi e sono belle resistenti consigliatissime

J avais deja achete le jbl 500 mais il m en fallait un 2eme,simple et toujours filaire.je suis ravi de ce choix. Les graves n etant pas amplifiees, le son est plus naturel et d excellente qualite.bonne sensibilite, puissant. Aussi bien qu un modele plus cher.simple donc fiable.fil plus long que le jbl donc aisance dans les mouvements.bon ŕendu dans toute la gamme de frequence avec une bonne separation des instruments.clarte de la voix.agreable a porter car plus de place pour la tete.je ne regrette pas cet achat surtout pour le rapport qualite prix...

Headphones exceed pricepoint. Got it while it was on sale, and its great for listening to music, watching videos, etc. The wire is really long, though that can get in the way, it won't pull on you if you have to get up briefly. I can wear them for long hours, and I wear glasses which is great as well. The headphones fit comfortably over my ears and don't clamp down on my head. Sound depth is lacking however, so don't expect great bass or trebles.

Als Ersatz für meinen defekten Kopfhörer habe ich mir diesen Sennheiser gekauft. Ich mache Radio und brauche lediglich während des Aufsprechen und dem nachträglichen Bearbeiten Kopfhörer. Zum Hören von Musik wäre meine Kaufentscheidung sehr wahrscheinlich etwas anders ausgefallen. Und jetzt kommt das Aber: Musik, und da kommt es auf die Qualität der Quelle an, kommt auch mit diesem Sennheiser sehr sauber rüber. Also Dateien in Wave-Format oder hoher mp3 Auflösung. Bin absolut zufrieden und begeistert, denn auch wenn die Höhen bei 18 kHz enden, so bemerke ich nicht wirklich einen Unterschied. Außengeräusche werden minimiert, die Ohrpolster umschließen sauber meine Ohren (normale Kopfform, normale Ohren...). Auch längeres Tragen ist aufgrund des geringen Gewichts angenehm. Fazit: klare Kaufentscheidung zum kleinen Preis.

llevo en el mundo del audio muchos años y esta marca siempre es de fiar. si, es un modelo bajo.. y no se debe usar para equipos de sonido potentes... pero para el uso diario, ver la tele, ordenador y demas, son de lo mejor. tienen mejor calidad y frecuencias de sonidos, mejores que muchos que valen el doble.. y el hecho de que apenas estan fuera de stock lo dice todo.
