Product details
Web ID: 22107383Good heatset
These headphones sound great. They seem to be made okay. Theres no wireless so no need to worry about connections failing or cutting in and out. Since they are an open design you can easily hear everything in the room while while still getting your music or audiobook in. They are very comfortable your ears do not get too hot and these can be left on for hours with out discomfort. For the sound profile. It's just flat. At times overly bright but the bass is not very noticeable. While playing at a normal level unfortunately the sound does travel outside the headset pretty easily in a quiet room and can easily be heard if you turn it up to jam out a bit. The jack for the wiring on the headset side is very tight which is good and it also comes with an adapter for 1/4" from 3.5mm and the length is okay around around 6 ft. The build quality is good for the price point I think. Aluminum covers on the ears and the whole headset seems pretty flexible but fixed when on your head.

Quality sound
The Sennheiser HD550 (conceptually) would be an excellent choice for audio purists, home studio users, or anyone looking to level up from consumer headphones into high-fidelity territory. It maintains the Sennheiser tradition of neutral sound, excellent imaging, and understated comfort—without breaking the bank.

Great for music enthusiasts or anyone that plays i
There is no battery life as it is chorded. It is durable and comfortable. It has great sound quality and comes with an adapter for electric guitars. I used it with my guitar and it worked flawlessly. I would recommend this product.

Comfortable, durable with excellent sound quality
The bass is deep, and the treble is clear. Pop these headphones on and surround yourself with some great quality sounds. I would buy these. They use a 3.5mm connector and come with one that fits larger inputs. The only thing I would suggest is to make a model with a mic, but these are excellent for music and audio. They are comfortable to wear and seem durable.

Amazing sound quality
First of all these headphones feel like your wearing nothing at all, almost forget I’m wearing them sometimes. So easy to plug in and just go. I plug these in when I’m gaming and listening to DMB and the sound quality is like I’m sitting front row listening to the band.

The absolute best there is!
The Sennheiser HD 550 are excellent over the ear headphones for the true audiophile, whether it's listening to music or just streaming content online at home. The price point is competitive to other similar makes but much lower than higher end models while offering very premium sound. On gaming which is what I use them primarily for, you’re able to hear foot steps approaching or even glass breaking at a distance. Some of these noticeable sounds are sounds that I've never noticed before using other brands. The bass is well balanced for whatever content you’re consuming but not overpowering at all. Midrange is very decent giving good clarity to tones in voices and environment noises in a game. Treble is also well balanced in my opinion and not too high where I would find overwhelming. On classic rock music, it’s easy to distinguish between the different instruments or even the different toms hit on a drum set. Music overall sounds so satisfying with these on. Sennheiser really nailed it with the HD 550, and they just keep getting better at what they do every year. I've tried all types of other popular brands, but in the end, I just can't put anything on top of Sennheiser. Extremely well made in every possible way. The quality is obviously top notch and well constructed. The look is amazing, and the material of the earpads feel very comfortable on the ears. I could literally wear these all day without feeling pressure on my head or my ears sweating. Without a doubt, Sennheiser is the absolute best in the headphone business. I highly recommend these headphones if you’re looking for a very decent set at an acceptable price point. I would say these headphones are a great “bang for buck”.

Excellent sound quality
These headphones have the perfect balance of bass and treble for an immersive experience in whatever you use them for, gaming or music. This allows for an excellent sound quality that is clear and powerful. The ear cups and band are cushioned for a wearing experience that you can never get tired of. I can wear these for hours and feel like I just put them on. I highly recommend these for the gaming or music lover in your life.
