The HD201 is amazing, considering the price and form factor. It has sound quality that one would never expect from $20 headphones, let alone closed headphones. The bass is fairly deep and pretty clean, but is a bit lacking in oomph and kick, though good amplification helps a bit in that regard.

Excellent value and good sound, but far from high-end

I bought these a year ago and the upgrade was worth it from $20 headphones. The sound quality may sound bad at first, but when you add volume the bass gets richer and the highs and lows sound better. Isolates noise very well in a train, but the noise of a car or a plane is too much.
Pros:
  • -Comfortable to wear
  • -Average sound quality
  • -Long cable
  • -Adjustable size
  • -Good build quality
  • -Isolates background noise pretty well
  • -Doesn't leak at smaller volume
  • -Covers ears nicely and doesn't leave annoying gaps
  • -Firm and durable plug
Cons:
  • -Lack of bass
  • especially at lower volume
  • -Sound leak at high volume
  • -Leather padding too small
  • -Internal cable may snap
  • -Weird vibration at higher volume (sometimes
  • -Cord tangles easily
  • and untangling is hard
  • -Size adjustment moves on its own

These headphones are very much at the cheap and cheerful end of the market when you consider how much one can invest in a serious pair of cans however they hold the treble nice and don't boom out with the low end too much.

Billiga, lätta men ljudet inte mer än okej.

Snygga och lätta hörlurar till ett bra pris. Inget superfynd men ett helt okej köp för pengarna om man är ute efter ett par mer omslutande lurar i bra kvalitet.
Pros:
  • Om man vill ha ett par stora, omslutande lurar så är de här att rekommendera
  • De är också lättare än man tror sett till storleken.
Cons:
  • Ljudet är inte jättebra men är man ute efter ett par billiga hörlurar så är de ett bra köp.

Sennheiser?HD 201

Earlier I used the JVC HAG13, but after giving those away I was looking for some other cheap headphones with acceptable sound quality, preferably closed, with circumaural cushion pads because on-ear or in-ear phones tend to be literally painful to my ears.
Pros:
  • Sound quality (for this price)
  • Closed phones
  • Wearing comfort
Cons:
  • Mechanical impact to cable is heared in the phones

Light Weight and Gread Sound for the Price

This is great for laptops or for an environment where your things can be accessed by any one. These headphones are almost free for the price and are without question the best sounding cans at their price. They fit snugly but you forget they are even there because they are so light.
Pros:
  • Great sound for the price
  • Lightweight and perfect fit
Cons:
  • The cord dangles from both ends of the headphones
