2.0 out of 5 stars
nice design - poooor sound quality, July 21, 2005
This review is from: Sennheiser HD437 Traditional Portable Supraural Headphones (Electronics)
I like the design of these headphones. They are light and seem to be stable, they're fitting tight but not too much.
The sound: Well, I don't really know what to expect from headphones in this price-range but so far I am pretty disappointed by their sound quality.
The base is strong but ways too present and dull hammering like a layer on top of the music.
The mid-range is very week and even doesn't come out nicely when try to "equalize" - and
the highs jingle annoying somewhere far away instead of giving the "sound cocktail" the right freshness.
All in all a these headphones have dull and non detailed sound that constantly gives me the feeling i want to remove that pillow that is between my ears and the headphones.. ..so where is it? Must be somewhere! Hey, maybe I forgot to remove the Q-tips this morning ..?!
By the way: tested on two computers and one good hi-fi system.

The PX100s are better, October 8, 2005
This review is from: Sennheiser HD437 Traditional Portable Supraural Headphones (Electronics)
The HD437s are inexpensive but you get what you pay for. Pay a few dollars more and you can get MUCH better headphones. For example, the newer Sennheiser PX100s are smaller, lighter and have better sound than the HD437. Also consider the Koss PortaPro.

for the money these headhpones are good I use them as a live mix feed from the mixing board for monitoring vocals. like the long chord and comfort.
