Sennheiser IE60 In Ear Headphones (Earbuds)

Sennheiser is a very well known name in the headphone game. My first good headphones, and the center of my first high end audio system, were the Sennheiser HD580s I had in college. The company has always been known for high quality over the ear...

Expert Review

Well controlled bass; great vocals and detailed mids; impressive accessory set; comfortable and easy to wear

Highs are not the most detailed; not the best bang-for-your buck set with $249 price tag

Sennheiser iE60 review

Good, but the low frequencies dominate a little too much and treble can get brash

Low frequencies dominate a little too much ; high frequencies can get brash

It’s a shame these didn’t live up to their promise. The iE60s are good… just not great

Sennheiser IE60 In-ear Earphone Review

Sennheiser's latest in-ear earphones get put through their paces by Ed Selley.

Neutral but engaging sound ; Impressive sensitivity ; Excellent carry case

Fussy fitment ; Muted appearance ; No inline remote

Sennheiser might have been focussing on full size headphones of late but the IE60 is an emphatic demonstration that they know what makes a good earphone. The IE60 is not an earphone that will stun you from the outset. It isn’t amazingly pretty and the...
