Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear

 

The comfortable Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear headphones deliver a boosted-bass response that manages to not overwhelm the overall balance of the mix.

Distortion-free, quality audio performance with plenty of rich low-end. Very secure, comfortable on-ear design. Includes two detachable cables, one with remote control and microphone for iOS devices

Sound signature is a bit bass heavy. No adapter accessories for headphone jacks

A typical pair of headphones from Sennheiser will focus on rich, but measured, bass response and crisp highs—and the visual design may look more utilitarian than luxurious. So, it's interesting to watch the company add a little bit of variety to its...

Sennheiser Momentum review

 

Sennheiser may have a wide-ranging lineup of headphones, but it's never offered anything like the Momentum before: a high-performance, audiophile-oriented headphone that's been specifically designed for use with phones and other portable music players.

The Sennheiser Momentum headphones are an elegant full-size over-the-ear pair featuring a brushed stainless-steel headband and plush, leather-covered earpads. Sound and build quality are excellent, and the headphones come with a nice carrying case, as...

The Momentum headphones are pricey and don't fold flat for compact storage.

The Sennheiser Momentum headphones may not have enough bass to satisfy every taste, but they are in every other way the best-sounding full-size audiophile headphones we've heard in a long time.

Review: Sennheiser Momentum

 

Sennheiser's Momentum headphones don't just sound great, but they're also steeped in that same brand of cool as the best gear from 30 or 40...

Fantastic sound with superior isolation. So compact, so comfortable. High price is actually reflected in the build quality — a rarity among style-minded consumer headphones. It wouldn’t surprise me to see a photo of Steve McQueen wearing these, along...

Kostspielig. Not as compact as truly mobile-minded headphones. Not for vegans. Case is too bulky to throw in a carry-on

Sennheiser Momentum

 

We can add another pair to the emerging category of stunning, mobile headphone designs that Bowers & Wilkins and Harman Kardon have helped to define in recent months. But something feels different about the $349.95 (direct) Sennheiser Momentum—it...

Excellent audio performance, with no distortion at top volumes. Beautifully designed and extremely comfortable. Built-in iPhone controls and mic. Removable cable. Extra, iPhone controls-free cable is included

Quite expensive. Frame is lightweight, but a bit bulkier than most pairs intended to be used portably. Large case

A victory of design and audio performance, the Sennheiser Momentum stands out in an increasingly crowded field of luxury headphones.

Sennheiser Momentum Over-Ear Headphones Review

 

Review: The Sennheiser Momentum headphones have some of the best sonic qualities I've heard in a $350 headphone. While they do have some issues, the sound more than makes up for them. Recommended!

Build quality and aesthetics ; Sound quality ; Angle cable end

Overly large case ; Small earcups

Sennheiser MOMENTUM Black headphones Review

 

Earlier this year we got our first look at Sennheiser's MOMENTUM at CES , a lovely stark looking set of headphones made of metal and leather. Here in the summer of this year we've had our look and listen to the set, and right at the dawn of the...

Sennheiser Momentum Hands-on Review: New Tricks for These Wireless Headphones

 

Sennheiser has added smart controls and adjustable ANC to one of its most popular headphones

It’s a good first attempt for the brand, but Sennheiser is going to have to work on the ANC to ever hope to match the Bose Noise Cancelling 700 headphones. Still the Sennheiser Momentum Wireless are worth a good, long listen.

Sennheiser Momentum

 

Both professionals and owners rave about the styling, which Michael Calore of Wired calls "downright sexy." The headphones seem to live up to their sturdy feel, as well; the only complaint we saw about durability in user reviews is that the cables and...

Excellent sound, Great build quality, Stylish design, Good passive noise blocking

Uncomfortable for some users, Cables and connectors may break easily

Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear headphones Review

 

When we did the review of the H-K SoHo , we stated that it's probably one of the best sounding on-ear headphones in this category. However, some users might find it too small and classy for their taste and I, for one, can certainly attest to that.
