    Customers like the comfort of the headphones. They say that the headband is firm enough that it keeps the phones nicely above their head, and the pads are plush and distribute the weight well.

Customers also appreciate the tight, powerful, and very accurate bass.

    Good but So Close to Being Far More than Just Good

    Good but So Close to Being Far More than Just Good
    First off I should mention that don’t think I’d ever pay full price for the HD700 and I got them as an Amazon Warehouse deal for a really low price. I also want to say that despite reading a lot of negative things about Amazon Warehouse deals and their “Used: Like New condition,” I feel I got a great deal and the headphones looked and even smelled brand new with some minor dings on the box. I don’t own a lot of high end headphones in fact the HD700 is technically the “highest end” headphone I own but I do have a lot of experience with a variety of headphones and brands from Skullcandy, Apple, Sony, Samsung, AKG, Klipsch, Bose, Beats, V-Moda, Audio Technica, Sennheiser and more. The only other higher end headphone I currently have and use the most is going to be the Sennheiser HD650 so I will use my experience with the HD650 to review the HD700.I am using this so far with a Schiit Fulla 2 DAC/Amp from my iPhone 7 Plus playing Apple Music 256kbps AAC as well as Tidal lossless 1.4mbps FLAC. I am also using this as a gaming headset/headphone with and without the Modmic 5 with the Creative Soundblaster X7 LE. My setup isn’t ideal and is on the low end for listening to music considering the $100 DAC/Amp but despite the 150ohm impedance the sensitivity of the driver makes the headphones run very well on both setups. You can hear music running the headphones on phones but to really listen to your music with these, you’ll want to add a little more power.Going straight into the sound quality these are nothing short of amazing. The imaging or soundstage of these headphones is the best that I’ve used but keep in mind I have not tried the HD800 headphones which are supposed to be significantly better. The soundstage is sublime for listening to classical music and the clarity in the upper range makes it a much more immersive listening experience than I am used to. I think the HD650 is great for classical music and will open your mind to the amazing possibility of better listening but the HD700 is exponentially better to my ears in regards to the imaging and clarity for classical music.Everything sounds great right? Well it definitely isn’t all great. This set of headphones has a really bad reputation for many in the audiophile community for its treble peaks. For certain songs it can be too much for people to comfortably listen to. I didn’t know what sibilance in audio meant until I used these headphones. They are just too analytical and bright and at certain frequencies the grainy abrasive sound just kills you. The analytical nature of these headphones is one of its greatest strengths and weaknesses. I didn’t have an issue with these headphones with 95% of the classical music I listened to and I don’t know enough to say whether it was just the specific songs or instruments that I listened to or something else. Also, I did not hear any issues using these on the X7 with my PS4 but with most other types of music and specifically electronic music, I just don’t like how it sounds. To add to that, these headphones are not kind to poor mastering or poor recordings in general. They are just too detailed and unforgiving and you will hear everything you want while also hearing everything you may not.Now while that last section may have turned you completely off from these headphones I have to say that I still very much enjoy these headphones. For classical music they have been a revelation of sorts. You don’t just hear the resonance of the friction of the strings on the cello, you feel them as if you were playing them yourself. You can nearly pinpoint the location of all of the instruments and the speed of the drivers can get you to the slow quiet sounds to the quick and loud and back again in no time. In my limited headphone experience with a low end system I am still able to enjoy these headphones immensely with classical music. I also have to say that if for some reason you wanted to spend a lot of money on headphones for gaming on PC or console, these headphones turn out to be great for that as well. The bass is limited because of the open back nature of these so some may want more boom in their explosions but the audio is so clear and crisp and the bass may not punch you in the face but it is supremely well defined. If the game you are playing has good audio then the imaging will be fantastic for locating sounds and specifically footsteps. Throw a Modmic on and you may have one of the best gaming headphones available without spending significantly more, although keep in mind you will likely need an amp for console gaming like the X7 or maybe the Mixamp from Astro to get enough volume.Moving past the sound, the comfort on these headphones is just the best I’ve ever had on any headphone ever. They are lightweight and while the clamp may not be enough to hold them snug on normal sized heads, they clamp just enough to my big head. The ear cushions are not terribly thick but the earcups are large enough to fit most ears without touching. The head cushion is very nice and plush and I feel no hotspots over my head. I also haven’t really had any heat issues around my ears like I do with a lot of other headphones. They just seem to wear cool, light, and just snug enough for my head. Another nice thing is that while some headphones just look ridiculous wrapping over my big head, the design on these wraps perfectly around my head with not a lot of extra headphone sticking out. I can comfortably lay in bed with these without hitting everything. I think while somewhat futuristic looking they are very stylish in their heavily HD800 influenced design.The build quality on these is great. While they are mostly plastic, Sennheiser seems to use quality plastics that hold up well over time. My HD558 headphones are years old now and yet besides for a little adhesive issues on my head cushion which is by the way replaceable, it looks brand new. That leads me into another thing I really like not only about these headphones but a lot of Sennheiser headphones in general, nearly everything is replaceable through Sennheiser. I’ve had other brands of headphones that have bad pleather peeling, or rubber getting tacky, or just cushions going flat. Then when you want to fix them up you’re left with aftermarket parts if even that which means your headphones have become mostly trash unless you fabricate something yourself. I don’t know if everything on these headphones is replaceable like the HD558 or even the HD650 but I know the ear pads are replaceable for a price(~$50 last I checked from 3rd part sellers of actual Sennheiser parts).These headphones aren’t going to be for everyone and especially paying full price brand new. In fact, I don’t think I could necessarily recommend them at full price unless you just have money you like to throw at things. They still retail at over $700 on the Sennheiser website and go for about $450 new on Amazon. I did not pay anywhere close to those prices and I honestly couldn’t recommend them at either price point. The only higher end headphone I have to compare them to is the HD650 which you can buy used for as low as under $200. You can buy them new on Amazon for between $300-$400 or even buy the nearly exact same headphone in the HD6XX from Massdrop for $200 new if you don’t mind waiting for the next drop and ship times. If I could only have one I’d take the HD650 every single time without hesitation. The HD700 are still better for my tastes on classical music and even gaming but the HD650 are just more enjoyable as a whole. They may not do everything as well as the HD700 but they do everything well. If you can find the HD700 for low $300 or lower used and you only want to use them for classical music or maybe gaming for some reason then yeah they will be great, in fact beyond great. However, if you just want a good versatile high end headphone to use for everything, get the HD650 or HD600 for a lot less.(There are mods available online through quick research that is supposed to improve the treble spike that I mentioned that could make these unbelievably great headphones if they worked , this review is only of the stock headphones)

    5.0 out of 5 stars Un Inmenso deleite y una maldicion - un arma de doble filo
    Reviewed in Mexico on July 30, 2017
    como Deleite Escucharas un sonido amplio, en buena armonia con los agudos medios y unos graves muy naturales!!
    como maldicion escucharas todo!!, hasta las imperfecciones de una grabacion como ruidos y hasta la estatica de los
    aparatos de sonido con los que grabaron.

    Su SoundStage es bastante amplio, mas de lo que imaginaba, las tonalidades son exquisitas, el grave es muy natural, nada sintetico y
    son muy comodos, lo suficientemente ligeros para no molestar y poder traerlos buen rato sin acordarte que los traes puestos.

    no es un equipo para conectar a un celular o laptop directamente.. (ajeno a su plug de 6.3mm) su impedancia de 150 ohms hara que
    su sonido sea muy hueco, vacio y sin vida si es conectado a algo que no sea un DAC amplificado o amplificador dedicado. (que no es 100% obligatorio pero es lo mejor que se puede hacer con un equipo como este)

    como debe saberse el equipo ademas de un DAC o Amplificador habra que reproducir musica de buena calidad, un WAV podra ir bien, unos audios de mayor resolucion que un CD de audio seria magnifico para aprovecharlos.. (para los que solo tienen sus colecciones en mp3 es mejor ir por otro camino).

    sin embargo no todo sera miel sobre hojuelas. considero que un auricular de este nivel y sobre todo PRECIO. tendria que dar una sensacion al tacto mas especial y lujosa (que no digo que no luzcan y se palpen bien), pero existe un tacto a plastico, y bordes imperfectos de material,
    algo que a este nivel y precio no deberia existir.

    el cable incluido es muy robusto..es muy largo y se siente muy duradero de un material como malla plastica, hasta que llega la parte del separador de canal. ya que de ahi en adelante el cable es normal, mas grueso de lo normal pero del mismo material que cualqier cable.
