Bang & Olufsen BeoPlay H6

A stark contrast to the recent wave of big-bass options, the Bang & Olufsen BeoPlay H6 is a luxury headphone pair for the lover of flat, crisp response.

Near flat-response audio performance, with no distortion at top volumes. Detachable cable with inline remote and microphone for mobile devices. Comfortable fit and thoughtful, simple design

Quite expensive. Flat-response sound profile might not suit all listeners

If recent products are any indication, something happens to headphones when they cross the $350 price barrier—they get covered in leather. The Sennheiser Momentum, Bowers & Wilkins P7, and now the $399.99 (direct) Bang & Olufsen BeoPlay H6 all feature...

B&O Play H6 DJ Khaled Special Edition review: you love these gold slugs?

Andy takes a look at DJ Khaled's limited edition B&O Play H6 headphones from Bang & Olufsen.

They’re insanely comfortable ; If you love gold, you’ll love these ; Stellar build quality

Overpriced for the given sound quality ; Where is my rich bass, DJ Khaled? ; Headband is extremely difficult to adjust one handed

: Extremely sexy design and gorgeous on the head, the B&O Play H6 headphones will leave your ears pain-free and feeling fresh, but Bang could’ve spent more time on the actual sound reproduction. Bass and mid-range are more lifeless than they should be,...

Bang & Olufsen BeoPlay H6 Headphone

Performance Features Ergonomics Value

Bang & Olufsen isn’t just another high-end audio company. Far from it. The Danish firm started making TVs in 1952, and their 1970s turntables were the best looking of the era. I’m not alone in admiring the industrial design; the Museum of Modern Art in...

B&O BeoPlay H6

Are these headphones better than the B&W P7?

Great looks ; Good sound quality

Expensive

The B&O BeoPlay H6 are classy, great-looking, good-sounding headphones that are likely to prove a smash at high-end department stores and airport electronics shops. They sit happily alongside the top Bose and B&W pairs in terms of sound quality and...

Bang & Olufsen BeoPlay H6 headphone review

Worth every cent

Clear, loud and layered sound ; Comfortable design with premium materials

Premium pricing ; Satchel for a carry case

They are, however, exceptionally designed and among the best sounding headphones we’ve come across. Audiophiles won’t mind paying the premium because the H6 headphones deliver something most of its rivals cannot; they play music true to the vision and...
