The HFI-15G uses our durable and great-sounding 40mm Mylar driver which has great bass response, high maximum SPL, and is next to impossible to blow out. These high quality drivers along with our patented S-Logic technology combine to provide the listener with an amazingly full sound and the sensation that you’re actually sitting "front row center" at your favorite band’s concert. Along with great sound the 15G’s open-ear design allows air to circulate freely so your ears don’t heat up during long listening or gaming sessions. And at only three ounces in weight, you will never get tired of listening to these headphones. HFI-15Gs also feature a specialized driver designed to reduce electro-magnetic emissions from the headphones. In accordance with our ULE (Ultra Low Emission) standard this material shields the listener up to 98% from electro-magnetic radiation typically produced by all headphones.

You'll be pleasantly surprised,

This review is from: Ultrasone HFI-15G S-Logic Surround Sound Professional Headphones - Black (Electronics)
I have been on a mad search for good cans for my Ipod. To put things in perspective, I am a professional DJ, and quasi-audiophile. I have tried the Bose Triports ( way too basey, supressed hi's- a joke for $179); Grado SR80 (love them for sound- natural base and crystal sharp hi's; not comfortable for extended listening, but I kept them); Koss portapros (recommended by reviews, but too basey for my liking); Sennheiser Px100 (unimpressed) and Px200 (horrible, hollow sound w/ mimimal base (despite a 72 hr burn in); and these Ultrasone's (recommended by my brother- a professional musician). I first tried their ICans, but were uncomfortable because of it's inflexible,square shaped over-head plastic. They also broke within 3 days as well.
However, I was pleasantly surprised and happy with these headphones. They are incredibly comfortable, and light as a feather (despite being full-sized cans). The sound delivered is not as sharp as the Grado's, however are real natural sounding and pleasant on the ears. I don't know about the company's claim regarding surround sound, nor the decreased radiation to your ears ( I can only hope it's true). I just find them a pleasure from a comfort/sound perspective. I mostly listen to them, with the Grado's occasionally as a change of pace. I am very happy with this purchase. The cord is ridiculously long though (9 ft?). It definitley needs a wrap, which I have ordered and is on the way.

This review is from: Ultrasone HFI-15G S-Logic Surround Sound Professional Headphones - Black (Electronics)
I must admit I was the "Bose is the greatest headphones in the market" person until I started doing more in depth research about Ultrasone Products.
PROS - light weight, Used it for 4 hours straight listening to my ipod and my ears did not turn tomato red and was not strained at all. Great for live concerts. I actually tried to look behind me and look for the bass guitar. The price - you cannot beat the price for what you get - lot better than those noise cancelling crap you get from Bose (I can say that because I did own one and promptly returend it because it was not a good. CON - now this is just nitpicking but the cord is awfully long

Ultrasone HFI 15 Headphones; great for long periods of use,
This review is from: Ultrasone HFI-15G S-Logic Surround Sound Professional Headphones - Black (Electronics)
ULTRASONE HFI 15 S-Logic Surround Sound Professional Headphones
I needed a high quality set of headphones that would remain comfortable with high sound quality for long periods of use. I practice digital music (keyboard) for hours at a time. I wanted open air design, to eliminate the buildup of heat around my ears, and to be able to hear the goings-on around the house. I like the fact that these headphones are very light weight and don't surround my ears. And the headband is small and doesn't bind. The surround sound design is just fantastic. It doesn't send the sound directly at my ear canal. This has completely eliminated the ear fatigue I was experiencing with my other headphones. The sound quality is really fine too. The spatial quality makes you experience a room full of directional sounds. Now you must keep in mind that these are not extreme high end headphones. The sound quickly gets rattled with excessive volumes and booming basses. But, under the intended use, they are quite satisfying. The other negative is the foam ear cushions, they are not covered and I believe they may wear over time. Overall at this price point, I believe these are the best headphones. If you enjoy listening to music while doing task or computer gaming or practicing an instrument... these headphones are really great.
