I have now been the owner of both the HD201s and HD202s. I tried to research as much as I could but I would never get a straight answer anywhere. Well I am going to change that. Plain and simple: the HD201s are greater than the HD202s.

A few months ago, Sennheiser set about spring cleaning its enormous range of headphones, and updated some of its collections at the same time.  The HD 201s are some of the latest arrivals.

Light and comfortable to wear; Stylish deisn and good finish

Spectrum is uneven and treble takes over; Earpads quickly become warm

I've been building up my home studio bit by bit and wanted a cheap pair of headphones for studio use

Effective and super cheap; Good ambient noise reduction

Lacks bass

evry headphone i got prior to this would either break, or the wires would come loose and the sound would stop with movement, ive had these for a month now and i use em for evything, plug it in my laptp to watch movies, plug it in my ipod to listen to music when im in the gym, its great and its so

I use a variety of headphones in my studio and I needed an extra pair for use with drums. These phones are lightweight and offer excellent sound quality for the money. That said, I was hoping for better sound isolation.

I`ve owned various sennheiser phones upto about £100. I thought I`d give these a go after the foam disintegrated on my current headphones. They cost me £15 and they sound like it. Compared to my previous £45 headphones they sounded dead.

Now that German's Beyerdynamic has returned to studio-level audio equipment, it's let Sennheiser carpet the portables market with the kind of spread that Beyer boasted in the 1990s.

Very good quality, i use them at the moment for monitoring when im on the computer producing, and listening to my iPod. the noise cancelling is excellent, which great on a noisy bus, and they alos keep a lot of the sound from leaking out.

I use the product to listen to music and for laptop compatible uses... gaming, etc. The headphones provide a generally high quality, affordable alternative to the other Sennehiser models, but are a bit lacking in bass quality.

Comfortable; Compact; Highly Compatible; Lightweight; Rich Sound

Bass could be better

I also ordered these using the Pepsi Stuff promotion. They are a lot better sounding than I thought they would be. The long cord is a nice feature. Its been a long time since I owned a set of over the head headphones and I forgotten how comfortable they can be and how much outside noise they keep...
