Sennheiser HD-555 Audiophile Headphones

Audiophile: a person who is enthusiastic about high-fidelity sound production.  Sennheiser has crafted a steal for the audiophile in you with the HD-555 Audiophile Headphones.  Just to warn you ahead of time, the HD-555 is geared towards a high-end tech user such as gamers and music/ film lovers.  An average user will notice the dyanamic difference in sound, but will not be able to get over the price, which is in fact a steal.

The nitty-gritty of the HD-555 is defined by two outstanding components: E.A.R technology and Duofol diaphragms.  E.A.R stands for Ergonomic Acoustic Refinement, and heightens the sound channels you hear.  When you hear people dropping the phrase “studio quality”, you’ll understand what they mean when you hear a song for the first time with the HD-555.  The E.A.R is paired with neodymium ferrous magnets that tune the base and treble together for amazing sound quality.

The Duofol diaphragms are paired with surround sound reflectors that not only blocks out exterior noise, but gives a movie theater quality to your home entertainment system and gaming experiences.  I definitely noticed a difference when I was playing an extremely popular MMORPG (that shall remain unnamed).  I purposefully zoomed in and out and turned my toon in various directions to test surround sound reflection.  I was thoroughly impressed with the echo and ambient sounds that would be drowned out in my old headset.  The velour covered ear pads definitely beats the standard foam.  There was no stickiness and heat that is a normally expected with long term use.

It’s safe to say that I’m a fan and a convert.  The HD-555 comes with a 3.5mm jack adapter for more versatility, which comes in handy if you want to use is with an mp3 player.  I highly recommend the HD-555 for avid film watchers and hard-core gamers, even if they play on a console system!

Sennheiser PMX-70 Sport Headphones

The Sennheiser PMX-70 Sport Stereo Headphones are great for when you want music to accompany your physical work.  The pair has been tested by consumers while running, jogging, lifting weights, doing heavy yard work, working on their cars, and more.  What’s nice about the PMX-70 is that they really meet the criteria you’d expect the “all-around sports headphones” to meet.  With a durable build, a 3.9 Ft.  water-resistant cord that is impervious to sweat, an ergonomic design, and the sound quality you’d expect from a Sennheiser, the PMX-70 is ideal for athletes and any music lover who wants to have their music accompany them through chores.

It’s unfortunate that no foam covers or additional silicone caps are included because, as frequent headphone users should know, changing the covers and/or caps to your headphones periodically keeps them clean and sanitory.  This isn’t a big deal, replacements are fairly inexpensive and easy to come by – one customer even said that when he lost the replaceable rubber part, he called Sennheiser’s support line and they replaced it at no charge (author’s note: I can’t confirm or refute this claim, but I was impressed enough by the customer’s feedback and decided to include his anecdote here).

Probably the most important, and impressive, feature of the PMX-70 is their durability.  Customers continually confirm the reliability of these headphones’ sound-quality as well as their strength through some very rigorous activities.  If it’s a sport headphone you’re looking for, the PMX-70 is definitely a good choice.
