Gaming Headphones For Phones

[0.005 lb] I love the Senal headphones I bought from B&H, but somehow I've lost the cable(s) connected to the phones. Thank goodness for B&H carrying replacements! If/When I lose them again, I'll be back for more (LOL)!

[Dynamic] [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Decided to try these headphones as I've always been a bluetooth earbud kinda guy and I wanted some nice over the ear phones for flights/travel. Also wanted them for doing yardwork outside and having the noise cancelling while using power tools outside could come in real handy. Right out of the box and with a fresh charge, they paired instantly with my Android phone. No Bluetooth button to hit to put it into pairing mode etc. Downloaded the JBL headphone app and started in to discovering these babys. Being able to dial in the equalizer is always a plus. I'm not a fan of stock EQ settings. Classical was clear and the quiet parts had no noise or interference. Straight to classic rock, jazz, then podcasts. I have no complaints with the sound quality, it's excellent. I'm going to have to get used to using external phones like these, but that being said, they are very comfortable to wear. Not too much pressure on the ears, soft pads, lots of room to adjust. And as you can see from my picture, I have a HUGE head and they sit very comfortably on my massive pumpkin. Charges with a USB-C and using a 27w charger, they topped off in no time. Love the noise cancelling quality, and phone calls were clear and crisp. People couldn't tell I was using them during my call. Highly recommend these headphones.

[2x MMCX] I have long been an admirer of Shure headphones and regard the SE215s as the best value-for-money phones on the market. Clear, prominent bass and excellent noise cancelling.

[1000:1] These headphones are everything I'd hoped for in a pair of over the ear phones. Sound is great and full throughout the range. Very pleased.

[1.065 lb] [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thing has every connection you could need. We keep it bedside and can charge our phones, watch, and headphones all at once. It create a mess of cords, but we keep it hidden behind our nightstand.

[0.675 lb] My Steinberg audio interface cannot drive the 32-ohm Yamaha on-ear headphones I like to sufficient volume. Putting this device between the Steinberg and the headphones gives a more-than-sufficient volume boost huge excess headroom; it could probably power way higher-impedance phones than mine. It's probably not audiophile-level sound, but for my purpose (hearing myself during self-recording) it's fine. The build quality seems good, and I like that I can switch the phones from mono to stereo. I don't make use of its other features, like mic monitoring/mixing.

[Black] I have been reading about these beauties for some time. I have a home studio with no shortage of high quality headphones for tracking but they are all closed-back style for noise isolation. Many pros insist that open-back headphones are best for mixing because of accuracy, a lack of bass buildup and reduced ear fatigue. Although the HD600s are advertised as "audiophile" phones, I have repeatedly seen them reviewed as being some of the most accurate units around for professional mixing as well. B&H had them on a special and I took the leap. When they arrived, like all new transducers, they were a little stiff and needed some breaking in. After running music�through�them for about two days, they really opened up. Now, I totally agree with the reviews I've seen. These babies are spot-on accurate. There is a slight bass boost which would be distracting if these were closed-back because the energy couldn't dissipate but with the open-back design it's present but not really noticeable. What really shines with these are everything above about 50 Hz which is ruler flat all the way up. I use SonarWorks Reference to fine tune the response and the "averaged" response compensation curve for the HD600s is within 3 dB through the mids and highs - the flattest curve for any phones modeled in the software. OK, now my ONLY gripe is that they have separate wiring to each earcup rather than the more conventional single sided cable input but that's a minor thing compared to the amazing sound. If you're serious about mixing and need accurate headphones, these are the ones.

[0.16 lb] In fact the principal reason I own Senal headphones is precisely because the cord can be replaced so easily, and that is a whole lot cheaper than having to replace an entire pair of headphones as a result of inevitable tugging on the cable over time, or all at once right after you step on it when you forgot you were wearing them and got up to get another cocktail. As owner of probably 20 pairs of more or less expensive headphones, I can testify to how often most other brands require replacing the entire set of phones because the cable is hardwired to one (usually the left) of the phones. Cable failure is what causes headphones to become useless no matter how well they work otherwise. So being able to replace only the cable without having to toss out the entire pair due simply to a loose connection where the cable meets (usually) just one of the phones is my idea of practical and reasonable. I'm pretty sure that companies like Sony make the cables a permanent fixture, as opposed to a replaceable part, exactly so that customers will be forced to lay out a whole lotta dough for a new pair. That's a lot more profitable. Almost all of those 20 pairs I've owned over the years became unusable when the cable got yanked or stepped on one too many times, and not many times were ever required to render headphones into ritzy earmuffs. First get the headphones, and though maybe not THE very best in terms of sound, they certainly are in terms of practical design and application. (If you can afford the very best, then you can afford to have two or three pairs on hand at all times. But if you're not Warren Buffett..) order an extra cable at the same time, just to have it available when (not IF, but WHEN) the cable has just transmitted it's last note. That way daddyo, you can continue to enjoy listening to Charlie, Miles and/or Trane on KJZZ without missing more than a beat or two. Dig it?

[117 dB typical] These headphones replace a pair of Sony MDR-7506 phones for me. I bought these for live sound reinforcement. They are not as Foprward sounding as the Sonys, and I like that. They're very balanced through the spectrum. They are sealed, so I do get some isolation for cueing and monitoring my audio for video mix. The bass seems to overload a little faster than I would expect, so I wish they handled a bit more in the low end. But I do like the phones a lot and have purchased a second pair for my office.

[Steel] These SENAL field headphones are a GREAT replacement of the standard Sonys phones. Very comfortable, sound great & built well The also feature a removable cable to replace or lengthen.
