Sennheiser's world of headphones is actually 70 years of chasing the white rabbit. The story of headsets bearing this logo - the name of the brand's founder - started for good in 1968, when the world's first open-back headphones, HD 414, revolutionized the market.
The Sennheiser HD 630VB are something a little different from a headphone-maker that's generally known for its relatively serious offerings. These ￡400 units want to come across as high-end, but also feature a giant bass dial on one ear cup to let you change the bass level with a quick gesture.
Solid build; Clear; high-end sound at lower bass settings; Clever smartphone compatibilty chops
Bass loses composure at higher settings; They look a bit silly on your head
Thank you to Sennheiser for the opportunity to re-introduce these to the Audiophiles with a low end affinity. ...crowd Some specs Wearing Style: Headband Ear coupling: Circumaural Transducer principle: Dynamic, closed Frequency Response: 10-42,000 Hz Impedance: 23Ω Sound Pressure Level: 114dB (1 kHz...
Well positioned adjustable bass; Even at highest setting not damaging mid presentation; Comfortable; Treble is just about perfect for long listening sessions
Non removable cable; kinda big for portable use; IMO
A pleasure to listen to them. Very comfortable to wear, impeccable build quality, balanced sound. I have taken the time to sit and listen to them in my living room without distractions and then I had a wow moment. Very good passive attenuation too for when out commuting or at work. Very happy.
Having been out for more than eight months, the Sennheiser HD630VB has been largely overlooked in favor of other Sennheiser models. With that being said, where does this $499 high-end closed-back headphone fit in? And how does it compete against similarly-priced models from other manufacturers?
