Sennheiser PMX 60 Stereo Neckband Headphone

Strengths: Lightweight, high sound quality, reasonable price.

Weakness: None noted to date.

I have been using these behind-the-head stereo phones for about 2 months. Very satisfied with sound quality. They are very comfortable to wear with foam ear pads. I like like the design feature with only one cord from the MP3 player to the headphones, rather that a split cord with lines going to both the right and left speakers. Technical and sound reproduction specifications are comparable with much higher priced units (18-21 khz frequency response, 122 dB sensitivity, 0.5% distortion). HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Excellent for the price

Strengths: Clarity of sound, comfort, excellent value

Weakness: A little weak on bass response

I researched headphones for a while looking for the best price/performance and settled on these. At first was concerned that the neck-worn style would not be comfortable, but you hardly notice them. They sound great for the price.

Sennheiser PMX 60 Stereo Neckband Headphone

Strengths: Great sound, lightweight

Weakness: Not collapsible

I have been using these headphones for about a year. They produce a rich and full sound from my MP3 players - I have two of them - as well as from my notebook computer. They are lightweight and fit nicely behind the head. The foam padding is comfortable on the ears and I routinely wear them for over an hour at a time when I go out for a walk. If these things were collapsible they'd be the perfect travel companion. Other than that I can't think of anything about them I don't like.

Sennheiser PMX 60 Stereo Neckband Headphone

Strengths: Light Weight, loud, and very excellent sound quality

Weakness: Not very portable. Everybody can hear your music in a quite place

These are the best headphones I have ever purchased. They sound like full sized ones, but they are not. They are so light that you cant tell you have them on. The best part is the two year warranty, so if they break, you can get another great set.

Sennheiser PMX 60 Stereo Neckband Headphone

Strengths: Good design - lightweight. High quality sound.

Weakness: None.

High quality sound at a very reasonable price. First behind-the-head design I've owned - was skeptical about comfort, but they are fine. Actually like better than top support or ear-buds.

Average

Strengths: sound quality, design

Weakness: price, no volume control, short cord

These are good headphones for the price. They sound great and fit my head nicely. Lack of the volume control and a short cord is definitely a disappointment. Overall, these are pretty good headphones, just do not expect anything extraordinary.

Sennheiser PMX 60 Stereo Neckband Headphone

Strengths: Excellent Value!

Weakness: None

The Sennheiser PMX60 headphones are excellent. Maybe they can't compare to those costing much more when listening to some music sources, however for compressed (MP3) music, only snobs would claim that there is much difference - if any. They are also very light weight and comfortable. I highly recommend them.

Great value.

Strengths: Solid response across all frequencies, excellent highs, comfortable for hours, low price.

Weakness: Could be more portable, bass response is average.

Have had these headphones for nearly 2 years and have been very pleased. They're a great value at such a low price; you won't get fantastic sound, but it's excellent considering the $20 price tag! After 2 years I am looking to replace my set. Since they don't collapse, they've undergone some abrasion being shoved into my backpack/laptop case. Also, the jack seems screwy; the past few weeks I've noticed my volume hopping around while listening. I'm not sure whether this problem is common or not. The value/quality is ideal for people casual users like myself who are looking for a comfort/sound upgrade from the iPod earbuds that Apple includes (which don't fit my ear canals! how frustrating!). If I was strapped for cash, i'd buy these again in an instant.

Sennheiser PMX60

Strengths: Excellent sound quality/Magnificent Bass Response(may be adjusted)/Extremely light weight/Compact/Comfortable/Brand Name/Affordable!

Weakness: There is always room for sound quality improvement, but of course that would cost a Lot More than $23.00, perhaps $50.00+.

I have just received these headset today...so far they are way better than I expected, especially for the price I paid-$23.00(Brand New). The sound is very natural, clarity is there, and the bass response is very smooth. I have an Audigy 2 ZS sound card for my notebook and, of course, I did some sound equalizing(enhanced tremble & bass) to get the desired sound. All in all, these headsets are extremely good for the price you pay; you will not be disappointed.
