Sennheiser HD 465

Sennheiser has sent another of its numerous creations to us, and this time it's a little more high-end than the earlier headphones. It's the HD 465; which I gladly took up for review, though it's not exactly a new piece. Not too many reviews of the...

There are folks who will like this kind of sound response, and it works better for watching movies and playing games. It costs Rs 3990, so that's not exactly cheap, though the build quality and design are very nice for this product. So if you are not...

Great comfortable headphones

I ordered this product from one of the used/new sellers (as I usually do, they usually come cheaper). I had read some of the other reviews of these cans and I have to agree with some of them. Yes, upon the initial listening right out of the box, they...

Sennheiser HD 465

Comfortable fit (good for long gaming sessions at the PC). Good sound reproduction. Overall, a great pair of headphones for the money.

Excellent Value

I just returned bose on ear headphones for these and saved myself over $150. Comparable sound. Better build quality...(a little bulky though). Super bass wihtout sacrificing any highs as mentioned elsewhere. I just love them!

Good deal, great quality.

Thses are ment for listening to music and sound, not for making it. If you want studio quality, you have to pay studio price; it's that simple. These are not the best headphones in the world but they are great for music, games, and movies. To the guy...

The HD465s are very nice, I've never heard my games and music so clear. Using these with and X-FI is awesome. They have a deep base and crisp trebble. I can now hear in acurate 3D, in online shooters. Plus they are very soft and comforrotable

Great headphones for Gaming

I've been using Sennheiser products for years. I first found out about them when I was given a CD player with a pair of headphones from my sister and her husband. Luckily they didn't realize that they gave me a really nice and expensive pair of...

1. Great design, looks good ; 2. Very comfortable. Easily adjustable and the one cord coming in is nice. Can wear for hours ; 3. Great price, newegg can't be beat ; 4. Sound quality is great. Games like Unreal Tournament, World of Warcraft and my music...

Not sure if its just my headphones or if it's a design thing but two things are quirky ; 1. The head cushion around the inner top of the headphones pulls off of the hard plastic arc, making a sticky peeling noise. Pretty sure it's just my unit, will...

Horrible! All bass, no mids or treble!!!!!

My [...]$ Philips surround sound, in-ear plugs I picked up at a CVS pharmacy sounds ten times better than this piece of crap. This is so heavy with bass that I couldn't even hear some instruments that I knew were in the high ranges! Don't believe those...
