Brilliant detailed sound, perfect for dj'ing or studio monitoring.

None. The perfect headphones for dj'ing or monitoring. Extremely comfortable and light so they are perfect if you need to use them for long periods. Similar Products Used: Sennheiser HD455, Sennheiser HD25SP. |

Strength:
Good bass, light weight, affordabel price.
Weakness:
High tones and comfort. Due to the closed construction of HD200 your ears will sweat if you use them for a while. I chose a closed type this time to close out noise and not to disturb the environment. I would say that the damping is not that efficient on ambient noise(as the older hearing protection-like models). Similar Products Used: HD414, early '80s Sennheisers which I don't remember model number of (higher than 414), Sony something plus a lot of different "earbuds" etc. |

Strength:
Awesome sound, great value sound wise
Weakness:
May be a bit too bassy for some,build quality I picked up a pair of these headphones the other day to use whilst drumming and i can say that they're absolutely fantastic. They drown out the sound of my extremely loud drums well so i dont have to turn the volume up in them too high and i can protect my ears but i can still hear my drums well. At the hi fi shop where i bought them i compared these with the sennheiser 500s and 570s and although i was after a closed design they sounded very poor compared to these 200s which were far far cheaper as well, half the price. I think this is because of their closed design and focus on bass. The 500s and 570s in comparison sounded too tinny and i had to turn the volume up on them higher to get a half decent sound. I didnt notice any improvement in accuracy in the 570s or 500s. The build qualiy on these is not what you'd expect for a $AUS159 pair of headphones, they are exactly like something you'd pick up at radio shack they are that cheap looking. I understand that they're a lightweight design but they still are far too plasticy and not rugged enough. For this price they should be able to make them of the same build quality as the sennheiser 25s for sure. They do a great job for what i require but i have to treat them very carefully because of their poor build quality. Try them and im sure you'll be blown away by the phenomenal sound quality u get for the price. Similar Products Used: sennheiser 500s 570s |

Strength:
Excelent sound clarrity. Good base, depth, brilliant positional audio, removable chord and modular construction. Different looks
Weakness:
style may not suit everyones tastes. In a nutshell, these headphones are excelent. I initially brought them so that I could play PC games with lotys of boomy explosions without disturbing people in the same house as me. Similar Products Used: none really, apart from crappy generic headphones. I have used creative Labs DTT2500 speakers, and Gale monitor speakers. |

Strength:
clear, detailed sound.
Weakness:
bass is lacking, not comfortable, UGLY I have to disagree with most of the reviews because the sound is not exactly what I'd expect from a closed headphone. Perhaps I'm biased by the HD 25SP, but the HD 200's don't give me the isolation I need. Also, the bass is somewhat lacking. I'd expect a bit more from a headphone that's targeted at DJ's. Also, I think the phones are a bit uncomfortable for a long period of time. Finally, I can't figure why Sennheiser made the earcups white, which is so 80's tacky. Anyway, these phones are not awful in terms of sound. Definitely great detail, but I expected a slightly heavier sound. Similar Products Used: HD 25 SP |
