Excellent, balanced audio performance with crisp highs and rich, powerful bass response. Comfortable, handsome on-ear design.

Light on accessories. Not for those seeking super-mega-bass sound.

If you're a lover of accurate and full-sounding bass, the Urbanite is the richer sounding option of Sennheiser's new style line, rather than the Urbanite XL. If it's mega-bass you seek, there's always more: Both the Beats Solo 2 and Samsung Level On...

Comfortable ; Good looks, great build ; A more refined approach to bassy headphones ; Very good sound quality

Thick, dark sound not for everyone ; Evil hinge hurts fingers

Good looks, a practical design and bass with balance make the Sennheiser Urbanite headphones a good choice for the more discerning basshead.

Strong, well-defined bass Solid build Stylish design

Midrange could be more open and expressive Could do with more subtlety and greater rhythmic precision

It’s another good pair of headphones from Sennheiser, but these aren’t for audio purists. If you want refinement, subtlety and balance, you’re better off with the Philips Fidelio M1MKIIs. But if you’re all about the style and you like your tunes...

Brilliant audio quality ; Premium build and looks ; Superb noise cancellation ; Powerful microphone

No changeable cushions ; Heavy, uncomfortable for long usage

The Sennheiser Urbanite is a masterpiece crafted by them geniuses at Sennheiser. Its audio delivery is a work of art, and if you are a music lover (which you are, if you are considering purchasing the Urbanite), it will delight you with every track you...

Warm sonic signature that focuses on music Subtlety and finesse in sound Good-looking and comfortable to wear Velour cushioning feels premium and plush Good cable

Not as neutral and detailed as some rivals Folding mechanism is poorly implemented No hard carry-case included

When we're reviewing headphones and speakers, we sometimes tend to forget that the focus should always remain on the music, and less on the technical aspects of the sound. It's more important to be immersed and involved in the music you love without...
