Sennheiser Headphones Reviews 2014

2014: bought the original Areca 8050 filled with HGST drives and used primarily for Lightroom/FCPX editing. Zero issues with this RAID. Thunderbolt 1 and see 400-600mb read/write speeds. 2020: Upgrade RAID system for more storage and better performance. After reading/watching all the reviews, I was expecting 800-900mb since my laptop/iMac still thunderbolt 2. RAID 5 with 8x WD Ultrastar providing 1100+mb and I couldn't be happier with these results. For anyone shopping one of these, don't be intimidated by the setup/config that some of the reviews note. It's a little bit of work, but nothing horrible. Honestly, I've had Alexa dongles that were more complicated to setup than this. Also: one of the review sites noted this T3 unit is not backward compatible with thunderbolt2 devices. I'm using the Apple T3-T2 adapter and it's working flawlessly. Thanks Areca for making such a solid performing array!

Bought the first set (8/2014)for use on a cross country flight based on claims and reviews stating the amount of outside noise rejection, since jet engines really bother my ears. The price was very appealing. Based on their physical size I also bought an external power source for my tiny cheap MP3 player, thinking that the internal battery would not last long while driving these headphones. The noise rejection was great, and at the volume level I was using, the MP3 player battery never needed recharging. March 2015-- away from home (no MP3 or headphones) and had to make an unexpected trip. Bought a 2nd set, the originals can be my wife's since she likes them too. On my return flights there were no entertainment services at all, and I used the headphones for their noise reduction alone. They are large over the ear types, but very soft padded and comfortable for me over long periods of time. Very satisfied. For the money, an excellent product.

As an audiophile and an owner of some of the best headphones from Sennheiser and others, I must say that the AirPods Max Headphones are excellent - - in fact they are terrific. The sound quality is superb and the headphones are extremely comfortable. This product gets my highest rating of 5/5.

This would be the Illmatic of Headphones for DJs. Sennheiser kept If it ain't broke, don't try fix it. Many user replaceable parts. Light weights construction for hours of use without fatigue. I believe 2024 marks the 35 years anniversary of this headphones. As glasses wearer, on-ear nature of this headphones works wonder. Since nothing existed in this world is perfect, here are few cons; little thin and easy to get tangled straight cable, coiled cable is also nice to have but little to heavy and long for my taste. Although included Pleather pads are comfy, and gets worn out rather quick. Invest in velour pads like ones from DT770.

My wife absolutely loves these Sennheiser Headphones

I've always gone for inexpensive headphones and  was ok with that, until I tried on the Sennheiser HD280 & realized I deserved a great pair of headphones that had great sound and kept out all the room noise around me. ... Been using them mostly on my computer to edit video with, and a couple times for recording interviews... ... They're very comfortable, sound is great.. but have to remember to take them off occassionaly to let my ears breath...   Did you know ears can sweat ?

Sennheiser never disappoints! Been a Dj for over 20 years and these are the best headphones I've owned!!!

I've used Sennheiser Wireless Headphones for years...With all the new technology, I thought it was time to upgrade...Amazing clarity and comfort...The advances in sound quality compared to my old set is very noticeable...Glad I upgraded...

I read a alot of reviews, wanting to make sure I could get two Sennheiser ew 100 ENG G3 Wireless Microphone System Combo in the case. There was enough room for the hardware, , but not wires. I use a small micphone bag for the wires and lav mics. I can lay the bag on top of the foam and everything fits in the small case. The lacthes are a bit stiff to open, I sure with time they will be just fine.

Not surprisingly, Sennheiser has made a great pair of headphones. I use them for monitoring when recording and mixing, and for general use when listening to music. I love the sound quality and the flat frequency response. They're pretty darn big, which could be good or bad depending on your wants/needs. I don't mind it, and they fold up pretty compactly. Overall a great pair of phones.
