Latest 5 Reviews Here is what people are saying about the Sennheiser PX 100 Headphones
"Strong bass sound, otherwise balanced and soft"

I purchased this product for replacing the regular earbuds that came with my iPod. The sound in Sennheiser PX100 is of a better quality overall but there is just too much bass. As I have accustomed to a more balanced sound in that respect, this quickly draws my attention and disturbs the listening experience somewhat. If I turn on the treble booster in the iPod EQ, there is easily a shrieking/crackling effect with high or loud sounds. If I turn on the bass reducer of the EQ, the sound becomes somewhat better, but the bass is muffled perhaps too much. I have quickly turned back to using the regular iPod earbuds as I like that sound better, overall, and plan to stick with them for the time being, but this doesn't take away from the fact that the PX100 has an otherwise good and balanced sound. It is also a bit soft or mellow if you're looking for something with a bit more 'edge' or crispiness. The sound is never 'muddy', however, but all sounds can be distinguished clearly and naturally. I would be very happy with it if it was not for the emphasized bass effect that it delivers.
"My husband loves these!"

My husband's only request for his birthday was good, travel headphones (NOT earbuds!!) that he could use with his iPod. I went on customer reviews only, because I was not familiar with this brand. Long story short- he loves them, thinks I'm a genius for finding them, doesn't know how he's lived without them! It took him a little practice to get them folded back into their case, but now it's a snap for him and he carries them everywhere. I highly recommend these for anyone who can't use earbuds comfortably AND who want the best, clearest quality from their iPods!
"Highly Overrated Product if you Care About Sound Quality"

This is the most Over-rated product I've come across. OK, I agree that these are super comfortable, well made, look cool, & folds away nicely into a neat case. However, the sound quality was well below expectations. My entry level (much cheaper) Sennheiser HD 202 sounds a 100xs better, the AKG K81DJ sound 1000xs better, as do almost every other headphone I've owned or tried; open, closed, or iem. The PX100 sounds basically like cheapie $5 Sony portables with better physical design.
Bass response is decent & you can crack these up to maximum with minimum distortion, however the overall clarity is just not there & the instrument separation is just almost non-existant outside of the most basic high pitched sounds being distinct; all other frequencies are muddled together as one unpleasant wall of sound blast.
I would buy these if comfort & superior portability design is your top (only) consideration, but would look elsewhere if sound quality matters.
"Excellent so far"

Have been using them daily since 7 months now ... Excellent sound quality ... I take extra care while using them but they do seem pretty durable ... Strongly recommended
I use these headphones mainly in the office environment. The sound quality i get is great. The durability has been outstanding. It does create exterior noise to those around you, but does a good job of blocking most of the noise around you. I would like if the cable were just a few inches longer but with an extending cable all is good. I highly recommend these portable headphones.
