Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sennheiser HD 457 Traditional Open Hi-Fi Stereo Headphones (Silver)
Customer Review: No complaints from me.
Summary: 5 Stars
The top reviewer has complained that the bass is overwhelmingly high. I do not have this same complaint. While playing games, listening to music, or watching movies, I find the audio to be crisp so that no detail escapes my attention. I have a pair of Sennheiser noise blocking earbuds which I use with portables, but I prefer this open design in the house, because it allows my friends and roommate to draw my attention if necessary.
The long cable is perfect for my needs. It reaches all the way to my computer's audio output port with excess length available, if necessary. When I need to go portable, it wraps up neatly. My one complaint is that the cable clip sometimes needs to be attached to something or the weight of the excess cable can become uncomfortable, but this is usually not an inconvenience as the clip is sturdy and always stays where I put it. On the other hand, with shorter cables I sometimes found my headphones to pull out my Ipod's headphone jack when doing things like cleaning around the house or exercising. With these headphones, you can give yourself enough slack so that this will never happen, and then clip the headphones on your shirt collar or pocket (whichever you think more comfortable). I find these headphones to be a simple yet elegant solution to too-short headphone cables.
I would recommend these headphones to anybody who enjoys clean, crisp audio from a relatively cheap pair of comfortable headphones. It excels for all uses: gaming, movies, music, and voice chat (with separate microphone). People on a budget who are fed up with cheap, low quality headphones should start their search here. Likely, you will come to the decision I did and purchase these.
I would not recommend these headphones to audio professionals (there are better products from Sennheiser and others) or people who may find the exceptionally long cable to be an inconvenience.
