Good value in price range.

For the price (and price range) they're pretty decent headphones. Build quality is good and the pivot point around which the ears twist doesn't seem as flimsy as it it with other brands (Roland, Samson). Ears have enough rotation to conform to head but little else though. Padding adequately comfortable for long sessions. Only niggle is the cording being to both sides rather than one or the other which gets caught more often than not. Sound seems to be a bit flatter and more even than Roland's RH5's by comparison, less bass, but clear.Read full review

Quality headphones on a budget

Sennheiser's workhorse budget headphones, found in studios everywhere. And that's the point. These cans are more than adequate for general listening, punchy bass, good mids and treble but they are not audiophile headphones, their natural habitats are recording stuios, radio stations etc. They are designed to give a flat, accurate sound so tracks, music, voice, sound effects et al can be mixed accurately without any frequencies being falsely enhanced. They also come with a 3 metre lead which may be a bit long for domestic use but perfect if being used while you are sitting behind a drum kit! The cans are light, just the right amount of adjustment, they are comfortable and fit snuggly over the ear. I use them mainly for broadcasting or pre-recording shows for an internet radio station and sometimes they are on my head for hours at a time so comfort is essential. They are ideal if you have look after the pennies but want performance at a budget. They are not the best headphones in the world but you can easily spend £30 on an inferior product to the HD 206.

Natural wide frequency response and light and comfortable wired headphones.

The Sennheiser HD 206 headphones give a natural sound and are light weight and comfortable to wear. It's important to note that they produce a natural even sound making them ideal for studio mixing and production use. They do not give over emphasis to bass frequencies like many headphones aimed at portable users - notably many wireless models. This makes them suitable for audiophiles who like a natural wide frequency response. They are not expensive either so affordable to most people . They have a good length cable as well as being supplied with a 3.5 mm to quarter inch plug adaptor for plugging into studio mixers and some higher end home sound systems. Read full review

Good entry level to hi fi headphones

Sennheiser HD 206 stereo headphones are an entry level of the Sennheiser range of headphones. I bought these to use with the TV and they are perfect for that purpose. they come with a long 3 metre cable, allowing the listener to sit far enough away from the TV to be able to watch the programm comfortably. As you would expect from Sennheiser the sound quality is pretty good, the top end, middle range are fine, however, I have found that the bass and lower tones are a little overpowering on some TV programmes, although, I appreciate that may be down to programm maker or transmitter, however when there was a program that incorporated, big pipe organ music, then they behaved as I would expect from a Sennheiser product.
The build quality is good and they are comfortable over extended periods of time, having large over the ear cups and being very light weight.
The only downside that I can see at the moment is, the cable that connects the headphones to the TV/Amplifier and the foam cushions on the cups looks like they are fixed, unlike on more expensive Sennheiser headphones and they are the components that usually wear out first and are usually available for replacement from Sennheiser. I guess because these are an entry level, then to save production costs, this model has no replaceable parts, however, I would expect them to last years.

Meets the standard described in other reviews.

These phones are as expected, not better than expected; OK would not be an adequate rating.
It is noticeable that they require a higher volume setting than some cheaper phones I own, but that may be by design.Read full review

Throw your wireless away.

Spot on. I hate wireless that I have to plug in to charge up. Pointless! A waste of good energy when I can hook these beauties up to my tv or amp and listen to my sweet music. Excellent product.

Great for the price and good sound

Great for the price and hope they last a long time, only negative is that the cord has no volume adjustment.

Good quality - good price

I use them plugged into a wireless 'TV listener' instead of hearing aids. They're light and comfortable and exclude external noise well. In daily use the previous HD206s lasted quite a few years so I was very happy to buy the same again.Read full review
