Without question the best!!!.......2007-12-05
The Ultrasone HFI 700 S-logic Surround Sound Professional headphones come with an audio CD that feature various instruments and sound effects. One becomes aware almost immediately that these headphones are unlike any other you have ever placed upon your ears.
As you listen to the various tracks you can picture in your mind exactly where each musician is seated. And for a brief moment you can believe that you are sitting right there in one of the chairs.
One of the sound effects on the included audio CD is that of a country meadow, with birds and bees and flies.
I had the headphones on, working at my computer, when I heard the flying insect in my ear and reached up to swat it away from ear and only then realized that it was the CD!
I used to work in a stereo store that use to sell B&O products. There was a ritual that, we employees, used to sell these very expensive speakers to a prospective buyer, that would never fail.
Whenever a customer was walking in through the door of our store and we had a interested customer contemplating this enormous purchase, we would put a CD by Heart on the B&O player.
One of their songs began with the sound of coins hitting the ground and bouncing several times.
Every single customer we played that part of the song for, would bend over to retrieve the coin only to discover that the floor was completely covered in carpeting.
I write those paragraphs to illustrate to you and compare the high-end B&O speakers with these wonderful Surround sound headphones!
I own a pair of Bose Quiet Comfort headphones also which, though they are very nice, and are very comfortable, they still sound like the sound is actually coming from one or both sides of the headphones. The Ultrasone HFI 700 S-Logic headphones make your senses feel that you are there in the moment of recording and you are not wearing anything on your head.
Buy them and prepare to be transported to a new sound dimension!
not good in all situations (e.g., electronica).......2007-11-19
I was really excited to get these headphones after reading the overwhelmingly positive reviews. I couldn't wait so I had them shipped overnight. I'm sorry to say that I've been disappointed with the headphones. Here are my impressions . . .
First, these headphones are very clinically accurate. You can hear details on these things that you won't hear on other headphones. In my case, I listen to a lot of electronica, where little clicks and beeps are always right below the surface -- to keep things complex and interesting. With these headphones, those sounds are brought up right alongside the main instruments. So, the actual music takes second stage to the now annoyingly obvious noises. I can't find a way to EQ these sounds out without cutting too much of the good sound.
Second, I really love bass. There is no such thing as too much bass. However, these headphones do something really annoying with the bass. With each thump, the pressure buildup in the cup is very high (I suppose because the cans are sealed). It is an effect similar to cupping your hands and bringing them together on your ears -- it can actually be painful. Again, I can cut the bass to relieve the pressure, but in doing so, I lose the low-end goodness, and ruin the song.
Third, overall -- these headphones seem to emphasize the trees over the forest. I can hear everything, but it just doesn't sound musical. I have $20 headphones that sound more musical than these. Each part in the song sounds distinct -- great for dissecting the music, but not for enjoying it. Maybe the headphones work better with other genres.
Fourth, these headphones have the most aggravating cord ever made. It is very long and balls up tightly on its own. Every time I use the headphones, I have to spend a minute untangling the stubborn cord. I know, you think excessive wire curl-osity is a minor problem . . . just wait and see.
Having said all that, these headphone are very good for DVDs (but are too quiet for a line-level signal). Ambient sound effects are given more immediacy. Note that these are not the DVD version (HFI-700 DVD), which I suppose have a few additional tweaks.
If you are going to order these headphones (or any other expensive pair), make sure you can return them. Many online vendors do not let you return headphones. Better yet -- try before you buy, if you can.
Ultrasone Headphones Rock!.......2007-11-07
These headphones are by far the best I have ever owned. No matter what you are listening to, from the computer to an iPod, these are the best sounding headphones for the price. Excellent separation of sound coupled with just the right amount of bass (and I love a deep thumping bass) makes these some of the best I've heard.
well worth it.......2007-10-28
These headphones are well worth the price. I'm not an audiophile, but for this price, I definitely want to get my money's worth. And with these headphones you do! Put in the demo cd when you get these and you will see in the first 5 seconds what they are capable of. Amazing! Sound great with cd's, dvd's, and other digital audio recordings. I use these for research and they really help pick up every detail of the recording. Also extremely comfortable to wear. I couldn't recommend them more highly. Enjoy!
Takes a little getting used to, but...........2007-09-30
Ordered these headphones after going through umpteen reviews on C-net, amazon and ultrasone websites. I must say I wasn't quite immediately blown out by the music that is produced on this pair, as I was expecting to be. But after certain burn in and getting used to, I'm beginning to love it. The clarity on the HFI700s is just amazing and must be heard to be believed. The bass is just sweetly balanced and not overwhelming. External noise is blocked out so well that you can almost hear your breathe when music isn't playing !
Minor nits: is that since the ear covers are made of leather, it can lead to heat build up and sweating after prolonged listening.
And the connector cable is not detachable from the ear cups and are fairly long...not very convenient to use with portable players.
With their amazing build quality ...I'm sure I'll stick to this one for years to come !
