Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Sennheiser HD-515.......2007-10-27

Awesome. I heard notes in songs I loved for years, that I never heard before. Even better after the quick burn in period.

4 out of 5 stars Spring for The 555`.......2007-10-14

First, let me emphasize these are great headphones. But if you are truly picky like me, you will want a little more.

Do I have a specific complaint? No, actually. Everything sounds excellent, nice, and tight. Nothing is lacking- bass, highs, they are all there.

The only way I can describe why these get 4 stars is because, well, they sound like a 70 dollar set of cans. Premier compared to anything you would buy at the local Wal-Mart, but not as good as a 100 buck set generally is.

My previous set was a pair of Sony MDR v700s, I loved them but the bass was way too high.
I listened to my friends HD-555's - they sound exactly like the 515s, but richer, fuller, and louder. Simply put, they have more umph.

So, my advise to you, is to buy these headphones and be thoroughly pleased.

Or save 30 more bucks and have, truly, premier quality.


PS- Comfort 15/10

5 out of 5 stars Excellent bang for the buck!.......2007-08-10

Very solid dynamics, tight bass, and clear highs. Big, but comfortable. Thankfully, they go against the current tide and use a 1/4 inch jack and 3.5mm adapter versus the opposite. Can you get better sound? Yes, but not in the neighborhood of this price.

4 out of 5 stars They're alright I guess.......2007-08-05

These headphones are pretty nice I guess. They kind of sound exactly the same as the cheapo $5 earphones I got from like Best Buy though. The only time you get to hear any difference is when there is some bass involved. These headphones have pretty nice bass response, and you can definitely tell the low frequency sound apart from the high frequency sound.

They work pretty well with the new generation two iPod nanos. I know this because I have three iPod nanos. :)

I'd recommend buying these since they're the cheapest in the Sennheiser 500 series of headphones.

3 out of 5 stars Not bad, but not great. Better off with HD555's.......2007-07-07

First off, I'd like to mention what I was comparing these to. I own a pair of Sennheiser HD 280 Pro's, and I tried out the HD 555's as well.

Build Quality: Not too bad. The pads weren't quite as nice as I might have expected, but comfortable none the less. For the price the quality is on par, if not maybe a little less.

Sound:
Highs: The highs were quite nice. There is plenty of detail to enjoy and keep you listening carefully to hear the nuances of the music.

Mids: This is the real problem with these headphones. The mids are faded, and grey. It sounds as though they are far off, and you can't make out the details of the sound. Ultimately I returned them because of this.

Bass: The bass is good, but not great. It is full, and balanced. However it is slightly slow, and lacks a bit of punch.

Conclusion: Due to the poor mid-range I can't recommend these. I bought the HD555's after these and was much happier. They are a much more rounded headphone. Just a note that these are an open headphone and don't block sound coming in or going out. You can hear people, and people can hear your music. If you want sealed headphones I would look to the Sennheiser HD 280 Pro's which are quite nice.
