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.

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

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

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 630VBs are a curious beast. We're not sure they fit the audiophile crowd that Sennheiser is apparently gunning for, but it's a competent and amiable performance that's easy to live with.That variable bass certainly is unique, and no doubt some will find the list of features very...

Clear; detailed sound; Variable bass; Great build quality

Could do with more vim and vigour; Fixed cable

The HD 630VB aren't the first headphones we've tested with the ability to adjust bass levels-the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro and Skullcandy Crusher are both more affordable options with the same basic premise, but not quite the same degree of audio performance or ability to dial in the exact...

Excellent audio performance with crisp, detailed highs and adjustable bass response, ranging from thin to booming; Exceptionally comfortable

Expensive; Cable not detachable

Sennheiser's HD 630VB headphones have one of our favorite features that most competing pairs lack: adjustable bass response. Add to this a solid, comfortable build and fit, and a unique design with controls on the earcups rather than an inline remote. But the star of the show is the adjustable bass dial, which can tune the sound signature exactly to your liking. Somewhere in the middle, the headphones sounds accurate, and bass lovers will enjoy being able to push the lows forward in the mix without sacrificing clarity and balance. At $499.95, however, the price is quite high despite the strong, customizable audio experience. Design The enclosed, circumaural (over-the-ear) design of the HD 630VB is chunky and sturdy like most audiophile-geared headphones. Some will find the size to be a little too obtrusive to take on the go, but if the bulky fit doesn't bother you, the faux leather earpads are exceptionally comfortable, even over long listening sessions, and the earcups don't leak...

Sennheiser's pricey HD 630VB headphones deliver a wonderful audio experience with adjustable bass and a supremely comfortably fit.

Excellent audio performance with crisp, detailed highs and adjustable bass response, ranging from thin to booming; Exceptionally comfortable

Expensive; Cable not detachable

One of the best sounding closed headphones available. The mids are perfect, the bass is as deep as you like, low mids are warm, and the treble response is very smooth and never spiky or sibilant. Nice soundstage and very easy to drive.

I've love headphones and these make my 17th pair of keepers. Headphones each have their sound signature. The variable base is great on these though still not a headphone for bass heads.

Great for portable device use. Surprisingly wide soundstage Great constuction

Non-changeable cord Quite large

People may tell you that increasing the bass will distort the audio, this is not the case, it gives it a deep and sorta looming effect as well as increasing the strength of the bass

Great sound quality Very comfortable Strong build Ability to +- the bass Volume and playback control (works on ios and Android with the help of a small switch

No detachable cable (in my opinion not that important) Not the most attractive pair of headphones
