What a steal! September 6, 2008 Since my first pair of Sennheiser headphones were "stolen" from me (by my son), I had to buy another set; but I was happy to "share" these excellent headphones! Amazon's price was a great deal lower than any other vendor, and the shipping was superior; I took advantage of their free shipping and received the headphones within a few days.
Ideal Headphones! August 29, 2008 I have owned Sennheiser PX100's which are also terrific, with surprisingly good bass response. The 200's are also fantastic and for a few bucks more than the PX100's, have cupped ear phones instead of the flat foam phones on the 100's, and provide more sound blockage to outside sounds. I can't imagine a better value in a set of head phones for your Ipod or what ever. I highly recommend these, excellent head phones, especially at the price.
Better than plugs August 22, 2008 I was introduced to Sennheiser back in the mid-70's when I would take their classic open air headphones out to the beach with about 150 feet of headphone cable connected to the home system. I have been looking for a comfortable, lightweight set that delivered a good range and could work with the mp3 and xm radio players on the market. Sennheiser came through for me again. I have been using their buds with the volume control, and, now, can enjoy an even better range response with the PX200W (yes, I got the white ones - respect to Apple). Now, if I can figure out the carrying case without causing any damage; I'm home free. Very pleased...kudos to Sennheiser for coming through again.
help with the debate August 14, 2008 I, as well as many other customers i think, have spent much time reading reviews and deciding between the px100s and px200s, and i decided to go with the 200s.
It seemed consistant that the 100s had better sound, especially in the bass area, and fit more people better than the 200s, but they also made listening to music less private and allowed alot of ambient noise to be heard (a good or bad thing depending on your use). The 200s on the other hand sounded less crisp and most people couldn't get a very good seal so the bass sounds worse. On the other hand, though, they are more private and block out more noise than the 100s.
They both feature a neat folding design and comfortable fit, as well as a nifty carrying case (don't be fooled by the pictures though, the case is leather, not plastic).
So here is a summary; If you want better sound quality and less risk: px100s. If you want still good sound, more privacy, and less ambient noise: px200s
I opted for the 200s and have not been dissapointed. After a few minutes of adjusting, I found a way to comfortably wear the phones and also maintain a good seal. It is helpful that they put an L and an R on the side of the respective earpone, it makes for a better fit than if you have them on backwards. Also, I sound tested them against the standard apple earphones and the 200s are certainly an upgrade; the mids and highs are slightly better, amd the bass is waaay better (as long as you have a good seal).
As far as comfort, I forgot i was wearing them after a few minutes, until I rolled over and bumped them. I can listen to them for hours unlike the apple phones, which I can listen too for only like 30 minutes before I have to start alternating ears.
I was also impressed at how much ambient noise they block. I was talking to my sister and she asked why I was talking so loud and I realized why old people who can't hear talk so loud! In fact, I can hear the songs on my ipod while i am mowing the lawn at about 2/5 volume with the 200s as well as i can with the apple phones at 2/3 volume! Highly impressive.
I think they look cool too, and the portability is an added bonus. All the people who have trouble folding them must be special edd or something because there are only like three steps and there are only two ways to mess up. As long as you fold the top half in before the bottom half (you'll understand if you have them) its no problem.
I hope this review helped you because it sure would have helped me and I spent like half an hour writing it.
head phones August 9, 2008 well designed, folds to a small compact size. Purchaced for airline travel, hate the headphones rented by the airlines, great sound should have purchased years ago.Must purchase adapter for aircraft use.
