About this product

Product Information

True audiophiles can take their listening to the next level with these Pioneer headphones. Originally released in the 1970's, the set continues to offer quality and comfort. You can plug a pair into a vintage Hi-Fi stereo or your phone and feel like you went back in time. As technology keeps growing and changing, audiophiles sometimes find themselves left behind. Manufacturers keep making products and releasing designs that put style above all else. With a vintage pair of Pioneer headphones, you can look great and still feel comfortable. This pair will feel comfy during even the longest of listening sessions. The on-ear design includes padding on each headphone. A heavy-duty type of foam surrounds the internal speakers. This foam helps amplify the sound and deliver a purer clarity of sound. The manufacturer added extra padding beneath a leather cover. This circular section fits right on top of your ears. Thanks to the adjustable design, you can move each side for a more comfortable fit. Metal pieces wrap around the ear pieces and connect back to the neck piece. The neck piece looks like a thick leather strap. The design of this strap provides more structure and stability. This model will remain in place, even as you move around the room. The strap also functions like a headband for wearing this pair higher up on your head. Though it looks like real leather, the manufacturer actually used a black leatherette material.Pioneer created each ear piece as a fully enclosed headphone. Each piece will completely surround your ear and block out any background noises. This helps you focus on your video, game, or song without any distractions getting in your way. You can even use the pair when listening to recorded books. The pressure from each ear piece is so light that you forget that the sound is coming from headphones. Manufacturers use the term dB/mw to describe the sensitivity of a pair of headphones. A higher number means that the pair has a high sensitivity and might damage your ears. This pair has a mid-range number that delivers great audio strength while keeping your ears protected. The pair also has a good impedance, which lets your music come across as more dynamic. Many audiophiles will like the 70mm size of the internal speakers. The larger size helps the bass and treble in each song come across clearly and stronger. The included cord measures just over 98 inches long, which gives you more freedom to roam. You can plug the cable into your stereo and listen from across the room. The headphones have a maximum frequency response of 10kHz and a minimum response of 20Hz. This response changes based on the device you use with it. These vintage headphones have the 1/2-inch jack. Audiophiles will prefer this vintage piece of gear because of the sound quality and comfortable fit.

    Pioneer SE 205 headphones

    Sturdy and solidly made the build quality does not reflect the entry level price. Sound quality is open and spacious with a reasonably lucid mid band and sweet highs, bass is good and articulate but does not plumb the depths as you have to bear in mind this design is 43 years old. So; in summation, excellent quality and sound but not for bass heads, highly recommended.

    So so

    It did say "untested" so I can't really complain Caveat Emptor seems to be the rule here. The speakers in the phones were loose and banged around and the sound was tinny and barley audible. If I buy something like this again I will make sure it says "tested"

    Great purchase! They came in the original box and it seems like they've never been used...from 1977! The headphones are in great condition and sound awesome. I would definitely recommend to anyone interested in vintage stereo equipment.

  • Vintage headphones

    They (the headphones) might work, but the speakers in them are shot, and sound quality is horrible. But, they are old. A better description should have been: " working but sound is like the speakers are shot ".
