Jung (Phoenix, AZ) - See all my reviews    This review is from: Sennheiser HD25-1 II Closed-Back Headphones (Electronics) First off, I've been researching on getting a high quality set of headphones for a long time, looking at reviews all over forums and sites, and testing them out at stores that carried the ones I was interested in, mostly for DJ use. (Sony MDR V700, Pioneer HDJ-1000&2000, Allen&Heath XD53, Ultrasone DJ-1, Technics RP-DH1200, etc etc, and even the Monster Dre. Beats Pro, even though after the Beats Studios I've grown to sway away from those overpriced-bandwagon-moneymaking headphones) If you're looking for a set of 'cool' headphones that look flashy and deliver mad bass for casual listening (with hopes that you will be noticed by people around you wearing your super cool headphones) and are thinking of getting these, look elsewhere. However, if you want studio-level quality headphones that deliver excellent noise isolation while maintaining super sounds with crisp highs and tight, punchy bass, (and aren't buying them for sex appeal) you cannot go wrong with these. I might also mention...

These are very good headphones, with powerful bass and crisp trebles and they are reasonably portable. I think these were mainly designed to be DJ-ing monitor like headphones but they are an excellent choice for portable use too. For example, I use them with my MP3 player for my daily commute and the sound is wonderful - you'll need a decent player though with a good internal amp like the Cowon's Iaudio range as it takes a bit to drive the HD25's. They also do a good job of blocking out external noise, you'll still be able to hear the underground rumbling but it will be way in the background if you are listening to louder music. They're not perfect though. Quite uncomfortable initially - they have a vice like grip and my ears started to get a little painful after less than an hour but I've been told they do stretch slightly and become a...
