Fidelio X2Hr Imaging Vs Gaming Headset

I really like this headset I did want to compare the virtual surround on these and my razer thresher ultimate headset when it came to gaming with them The Philips Fidelio X2HR sounded good but there are some sounds that can not be picked up when gaming as I have heard and seen in some youtube reviews that have said otherwise The sound is great on the Philips Fidelio X2HR for gaming But there just better for thrasher music and heavy bass They really kick I highly recommend these

I recently received a used headphone amp (Little Dot I+) as a gift. This gift prompted me to give traditional over-ear headphones another try after a 35 year hiatus. I had given up on this type of headphone because the clamping pressure was always too much for my XXL sized head. I did some research and found that the Fidelio X2HR’s supposedly fit big headed folk, were well respected, and used an open-back design that produced an impressive soundstage. I decided to give them a try and I’m really glad I did. The clarity, detail and soundstage of these headphones is amazing and thankfully they are very comfortable. I also really appreciate the excellent build quality and standard (non-proprietary) single sided and replaceable cord. I definitely recommend the Fidelio X2HR’s. For those who are new to headphones like me, remember that an open-back design is best used in a quiet corner of your home since external sound is not blocked and anyone nearby can hear your music. I’ve experienced impressive soundstage using quality speakers but quality headphones are a whole new ballgame.

The Philips Fidelio X2HR Headphones I purchased at a savings of $150.00 off the regular price are excellent. I use them to monitor recordings I make of my LPs to a digital format on my desktop. The sound is clear and true to the original recording and they fit very comfortably on my head. I will also use them to simply listen to my LPs in quiet comfort.

This Philips Fidelio X2HR choice was my first open-backed headphones after always using closed-backed. It was a great choice. The sound is much better than I was used to and the comfort level on the ears and head is also much more comfortable. I am not an audiophile like some of the other reviewers, yet I am very pleased with my choice. I highly recommend these headphones.

Amazing headset for gaming! I couldn't be happier with this product.

This would be my first gaming headset, the blue microphone definitely is very different from anything i used before. thanks again B&H. Received the headset in just 4 days.

one of the best gaming headset I've ever have in my life I suggest to everyone try this gaming headset

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Item arrived a few weeks ago and took me a while to properly evaluate all of the features and functions. All I can say is WOW!! Physical 'display' type box is attractive and informative as to the many features the product provides... Upon unboxing I found a very high quality headset with MANY cords for different applications and uses but VERY clear and precise instructions of what all of the accessories represented as well as clear connection information. Very simple for tweens all the way up to adults to understand.. Upon connecting the unit and powering up there are many variables that can be adjusted including lighting and sound parameters. The headset has top band setup with heavily padded ear cups which are very comfortable and adjustable for many head sizes. Headset was very comfortable even with hours of wearing and gaming. Once setup the best feature comes to life.. the absolute dynamic highs, lows, and bass of the noise canceling sound experience. I have yet to own a headset that provided such dynamic directional type audio that this headset promotes but it is nothing short of astounding. Game play is 10X sweeter with just the experience that the sound quality brings to the table. The lighting of the LED's is also a rather cool and radical feature not found on many other headsets.. Certainly intensifies the gaming experience as well. All in all VERY pleased as I am with every other JBL product I have had the pleasure of using and owning. The price may be higher than a lot of other headsets but YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!! No corners cut in design and making this a must have pinnacle gaming accessory!! Once you have tried this unit there are no others that come close in comparison.

Subtle but useful imaging softening.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cannot express enough about how great the sound quality is with this headset. The headset fits comfortably and snug. The microphone quality has been clear based on feedback from other games when I talk with them. The sound quality from gaming is crystal clear. I also love that this headset is unviersal and can be used for working from home in addition to gaming. Great product all around and would absolutely recommend for every day use!
