bassier than stock CD player phones

everything else

Sound absolutely awful. I was hoping to upgrade from ''in-ear'' stock phones which came with my Panasonic player, but in comparison these Sens sound way too worse. Distorted and obscure midrange, muffled highs and poor sensitivity - that''s what I got. Yeah, they can be non-fatiguing because they produce some muffled background music. The only thing they do better than my stock h/phones is bass. Don''t buy them!

Low price, balanced sound across spectrum

Only 50 Hz to 18,500 Hz

For $11 (including shipping) what do you want? I auditioned them with some acoustic music, Suzanne Vega and Gordon Lightfoot, and some classical CDs. Very noticeably missing bottom and top end of audio frequency spectrum, but balanced and fairly natural sound in the range it does cover. Not high fidelity, but not overly colored sound. Very much better than my cubicle headphones the Sony MDR-W11s. The Sonys were much more efficient and louder, but very colored and distorted by comparison and they were about $20. I am getting the Senn HD433s next week from Ubid for $22 with shipping and they will be my office cans with these as backups. The Sony headphones are junk.

Non-fatiguing rolled off high end

Not true high fidelity

For those who find the Senn HD433s fatiguing, get some of these cans. You could listen for hours. I am a large (over 200 lbs, 6'3") older male, so my high frequency hearing is not that of a younger 150 pound person or a female. I like the pronounced high end of the 433s myself, but if that doesn't suit you try these for a few bucks.
