Great Headphones for the Price!
What's great about it: Price, comfort, sound. What's not so great: No complaints for the price. Most of the reviews for these headphones were very good, but there were a few reviewers who complained that the bass response was poor. I use them with my IPOD Classic and the bass is excellent. The sound is crisp and clear, and the headphones are comfortable. Yesterday I wore them for four hours while working in my yard and I experienced no discomfort. The cord is a little long, so I wound it up an...

$20 well-spent!
I'm listening to music on my newly purchased HR201s right now and I'm pretty happy with them.
I wanted a cheap pair of headphones to keep around my office and the standard iPod ear buds weren't cutting it -- after an hour or so in my ears, they really started to hurt.
I would describe the sound on the 201s as gentle and smooth. The bass seems to be rolled off quite a bit (though this could be an impedance mismatch with my iPod, I don't know) but the mids and highs are,...

The S in Sennheiser Stands for Superb
Basically, I needed a new pair of headphones after I got tired of the Sony MDR-V150s that my roommate lent me. I did not like the idea of having the "cups" right ON my ear, and honestly, they did not sound all that great so I decided to do some searching. I looked at Koss(I did not like any of their models) AKG( I love them, but, for $100, I did not get involved with them.) So, I decided to search some more..I totally forgot about Sennheiser headphones. I heard them once at an ultra ...

A Good Value
What's great about it: Great Sound at a great price What's not so great: so far no complaints I am completely satisfied with these headphones. At the price I did not expect to get an audiophiles dream: I did get good headphones that provide good qualiity sound, better than I would expect at the price. I love the long cord becaus it allows some mobility while using them. I find they are very comfortable, and while they are not nor were supposed to be sound canceling, they do provide some buffer...

Not loud enough, sibilant, slightly bright
In summary this headphone has one general strength:
1) Decent sounding depending on your tastes and needs, given the price, and given the kind of sound you get from most other closed headphones of similar price.
However, the Sennheiser HD201 has 4 important weaknesses:
1) Has very low sensitivity: it takes a lot of volume/power to bring them to satisfactory or normal loudness levels.
2) It's a bit bright, bass is slightly lacking, making them sound slightly thin or...

I thought they were good until I actually used them...
I almost never ever review items unless I am really surprised with their quality. And that can go both ways. Unfortunately it is not in a good way this time around.I bought these when I needed a second pair of headphones because I took my first pair (Philips SBC HP170) to use at work and wanted to leave a pair at home. Well, I ended up rarely using them at home until recently I decided to give them a shot. I took them to work and have been listening to them every day for ...

Great pair of headphones at a great price!
I just bought these headphones after looking at some noise canceling ones as well as a few others that were similar to this. I bought this pair because of good reviews from amazon as well as from a headphones site.
These headphones sounds great! There is rich bass and the sound is full. It sounds just as good as a my speakers I have hooked up to my computer with a subwoofer. I plugged in these headphones and then put in the ipod speakers and these are a million times better. The o...

Sennheiser HD201s Deliver
What's great about it: Super lightweight, great build quality, terrific sound, excellent value What's not so great: Not noise cancelling I was looking for an affordable set of closed ear headphones that produced great sound (for PC/console gaming, laptop, iPod, etc.) and was also lightweight, and the HD 201s fit the bill. They were professionally packaged as like all Sennheiser products and come with a 1/4" adapter... nice bonus there. The cord is also very generous which is always import...

For ~$20 US, excellent.
I listen to music frequently, and though I could not honestly consider myself a TRUE audiophile (an audiophile being a person willing to spend $100 on a certain type of speaker cable for "maximum audio quality), I am definetly familiar with audio equipment that sounds good. I spent $100+ on an Audigy 2 soundcard, a card that has made a significant impact on the enjoyability of my listening experiences on my comp, and $200 on a decent set of speakers, and those are the two largest audio purchases...

Exelent
A very great set of headphones, the sound quality is exceptional, obviously not to be compared to higher end headphones, but certainly is the best bang for buck on the market.
