SennheiserHD 206 Stereo Headphone

I had Sennheiser headphones since the 70's and they always were top of the range. I was looking for simple, cheap headphones and stumbled over these. My use would be for HAM Radio. They arrived and I got a lovely surprise: they sound well above their price point, in fact they are excellent even for classical music. Ok, they are made entirely from light plastik, making them super light. They are very comfortable thanks to the very good and comfy padding. Overall headphones you can easily wear for hours! You get a very nice set from a real brand with excellent reputation for little money! Recommended!

I am not an expert in headphones etc but I was looking for a set that would give me clarity and deeper sound quality like my NAIM Cube speaker which I love. I bought Bose Sports Noise Cancelling in ear buds, based on reviews, and returned them immediately after 1 hour ... I disliked their bulkiness and they sounded a bit "tinny". I did some research and found that music studios use Sennheiser (never heard of them before) so I ordered the in ear Sennheiser which were okkkk but found that they worked better for me wearing them upside down and only then the ear buds didn't continuously fall out and the sound was better. However, I still wasn't getting that deeper base sound that I craved. Based on reviews i.e. build quality etc I decided to chance my luck (wasn't still sure based on the price) with the HD 206 and instantly I knew I had found what I had been looking for. Plus point being that they are also really comfortable especially when you fall asleep with them still wrapped around your head and they are quite robust. However, being a bit bulky, I use my in ear Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 In Ear Bluetooth when I am out and about. As for the sound, although they provide good base, it can sound a little muffled but way better than the in ear phones. And the best bit .....the price. I never expected to get this sound quality for this price. It's assumed the more you pay the better but not in this case. I bought another set of over the ear Sennheiser but they were not on par with the HD 206's so back they went. I have ended my search altogether and now just use these.

I had a pair of the older model of these headphones that lasted well until the cables broke after many years of abuse. I bought these as a good value replacement and they are as good as before, lightweight, fit well and very easy to use, and I appreciate that the cable is long. The sound is acceptable for use in live music performance although could be a bit louder.

Headphones are good quality and comfortable. Sound quality is worth the money.

Sound a bit tinny, lightweight, quite flimsy unlikely they will last as long as my previous sennheiser headphones. But for the price not too bad, but time will tell.

My first pair of Sennheiser headphones lasted over twenty years. They were great quality sound. I loved them. Eventually the wires entering the cans broke with years of use. Gluetac worked for a while, but when the other side went, stickytape didn't work. Anyway I figured it was time to treat myself to a new pair. I went for the closest contemporaries from Sennheiser I could find (wired, because bluetooth introduces latency when recording) I got the HD206 (previous were HD202). The new ones are same good value, same good sound. Thanks you Sennheiser. Comfort is down because they're new and a bit tight for prolonged use. I'm sure that will improve. But they do isolate out the external sounds better than the 202's did.They were delivered in a couple of days - much faster than I expected. Absolutely no complaints, and nice to see Amazon easing off on the packaging.

We get through 2-3 pairs of headsets a year. I always buy Neewer but this time due to costs we bought the Sennheiser HD 206.Never Again!They are thin, weedy and feel like they will break soon. Absolutely terrible quality.Sound quality is ok but not Sennheiser qualityThe worst of all is the cable. I think its made of the cheapest wire you can get and always in the way.You get what you pay for and Im paying for it…

Fit comfortably. Not to weighty. Good quality. Clarity is good for the cost. The function well as earphones.
