Sennheiser MX500 Headphones

 

Makers of premium consumer electronics face a difficult choice when they opt to sell lower-grade accessories: release unimpressive products and tarnish a good brand name, or release impressive products and risk cannibalizing sales of their expensive ones

Best value-priced pick for iPod replacement headphones for the price, nice integrated volume control, fit, look and case

If anyone wants the ultimate in-ear phones try the Shure-E2 E3 or E5's. These are without a doubt THE BEST MONEY CAN BUY. Forget any of these "consumer" products, these are designed for the pro market. Any time you see a performer on stage with...

They sound great. They have good highs and mids. the bass isn't that strong but just enough. The only bad thing is that the cord feels like cheap plastic but certainly one of the best OEMs (dont go in the ear canal) out there for the price. I say these...

Decent headphones...

I've owned these headphones for over a year now, and they're still going strong. The audio is only decent, not great, and I'm no audiophile. Probably better than the standard ipod headphones though. The build quality is very good - I've been pretty...

I had read a lot about these, but when I finally got them I was a little disappointed as they were not that great. Ended up replacing them with a pair of CX300s for airplane trips and PX100s for home use. The latter are way superior to anything I...

Great headphones

These headphones are excellent for those like me with ear canals that are just too tiny to fit in-ear buds comfortably for any period of time. The volume control has proven itself surprisingly useful many many times. I don't use the little foam pads,...

As a replacement for an iPod ear bud, the MX500 is a surprisingly decent performer, offering an acceptable sound and a strong value.

Sennheiser MX500 Headphones

Bought these at the suspiciously low price of $8.99. Are they Chinese "fakes"? If so, the quality is very good. Pro's: Excellent 5-star sound for most types of music -- the bass is very good, just not mega (buy the Sonys for that)!! Delivers high...

I was looking for a cheap, but not too cheap pair of earphones, and stumbled across this gem! These are AWESOME earphones for a small price! I was amazed at the great sound, and they have a super handy volume control on the chord too! Comes in great...

OUTRAGEOUS!!!!
