These a a cracking pair of headphones for the money. They lock out outside noise and the sound produced is a pleasing, rich tone with slight emphasis on the bass side of things, which is always adjustable anyway. The only let down is they're quite uncomfortable after sustained use.

what you need to know on top of what they have already told you:
They are smaller than you think, which is good, just fit over your ears, and don't look ridiculously massive on your head.

Because there is slight emphasis on bass, if you are producing music, this may distort your interpretation of the correct levels when mastering, but on the plus side, for normal listening, the bass is nice and crunchy, and the treble is powerful.

Another plus, was the size of the cable, I was expecting the usual very thick and heavy sterio cable, yet it is much thinner and so much more portable.
For simply listening, I would recommend this over the eh 350 s and they actually have less bass (more like monitor headphones), so the experience is less mindblowing. Back of the net, yoru, sayy, forrut, hadorrrken, highly rec. overall.

I was replacing a decade old pair of headphones and was astonished by the difference it made. The volume and sound quality of these headphones is fantastic in comparison, shows just how much the technology has moved on.


2 out of 5 stars Disappointing   July 10, 2007

After reading the reviews below, I was generally disappointed with these phones.

Firstly, sound quality: I found the bass output to be hugely under-exaggerated in the other reviews and that infact the bass is overwhelming. It's controllable from a good setup such as my hifi, but not for my computer nor my portable mp3 player, even after playing with sound settings and graphic equalizers to extremes. For example on my mp3 player, my 5 band EQ settings were at -12 -12 6 12 12, and the bass was still too strong, if controlled a tad better.

These may well be ideal for part time DJs and so on as the treble is very crisp and when reigned in the bass is too, but there is a barely noticable mid range so I can't recommend these for personal use and general music enjoyment even with a powerful EQ.

Secondly I found these to be very tightly fitting, to the extent that after an hours use it was a relief to take them off! It's worth pointing out that I do not have a large head, infact probably average-to-small would be a better description. I'm glad I sold my pair before taking any long journeys.

I sold my pair after 3 months, and on ebay rather than to a friend because I would've felt bad selling these to someone I know.

There are many better pairs of headphones out there for much cheaper than these. Don't make the mistake I did.

Oh, and just so you know, they look much bigger and less sleak on than in the pictures!



2 out of 5 stars Let down   June 5, 2008
Mr. A. Larter (Leicester, UK)
Having owned many Sennheiser headphones before, I am amazed at how low the quality has become. The headband is far too small and looks like cheap plastic. The detachable cable has been replaced by hardwired cables to each ear piece. And finally the ear cushions are far too small. As a result, they are very uncomfortable to wear for long periods.

The sound quality is pretty good, although the base is far too extreme. (This maybe because the ear pieces are clamped so tightly to your head). You'll need to adjust your graphic equaliser settings to get a decent sound.

Overall I am really let down by the eH 250. I can't wait to get my old eH 2200 repaired.
