There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
for years I read the horror stories about the hd700 and it's "ear bleeding" sibilance. I've seen people say its like ice picks to their ear drums. others say it's like a devil's dentist drill, shredding their ear drums (no joke!). and lets not even bring up the frequency response graphs.....
I always thought the reviews seemed odd, could it really be that bad? at that time the 700 was well over $750, which was way out of my budget. but the recent prices (got mine for $430) brought it down to my level. why not, I figured. I could always return it if it was as bad as "they" say.
well, guess what? it's not bad. nope, not at all. actually it's good. how good? quite good! hd800 good? no, but then again it wasn't supposed to be that good. if it was, why even have the 800? $1000 good? no, I wont go that far. $500 good? oh yeah! now we're talking.
I wont go into super detail on the sound signature, as it's been done to death. instead I want to focus on what I feel are misconceptions, and parroting. and by parroting, I mean the epidemic online of people just regurgitating things they've read/heard, without having any first hand experience. just go on headfi, it's a popular parrot destination. and I strongly believe the hd700 is a victim of overaggressive parroting on many sites, not just headfi. a few early adopters didn't like the highs, and suddenly the hd700 was "like having ice picks in my ears". really?
lets get down to it, the highs. that's what most people considering this headphone want to know about. are they really that bad? for me, and my ears and ACTUAL experience, nope, not at all. I'm running my 700 on a bifrost 4490 and lyr 2 (gold lion tubes). tidal hd, and the most random list of music known to man. some good quality, some not so good (metal, get your quality up!). so how are the highs? crisp, detailed, extended, slightly warm. sibilant? no, not at all, at least for my old ears. I do hear the peaks others have described in great detail. but they don't pierce my ears. they don't cause me discomfort. sorry folks, the devil and his dental drill from hell are not shredding my eardrums. no ice picks either. I must be deaf, I guess, because I actually really like the highs. they offer a level of clarity and sparkle few of my other headphones can even come close to. I will admit the peaks on low quality recordings (metallica death magnetic) can get pretty intense. but I fault the recording more than the headphones. death magnetic is a clipped, shrill mess on most of my headphones.
so there you have it, the highs are pretty good. I wont lie, I was really nervous trying them on for the first time. I had the volume down so low I could barely hear anything. I was so worried the 700 would shred my eardrums. 5 minutes later I was at pretty obscene volume levels and not wincing at all. in comparison, my msr7 would be much more fatiguing and uncomfortable sounding at lesser volumes. even my q701 sounds harsher up top than the hd700.
ok mids/lows, i'll be more concise. mids are ever so slightly recessed, or maybe just neutral. but they definitely sound farther away than my alpha prime, q701, and pm3. those three are my mid range masters. but the 700's mids are still beautiful sounding. warm, detailed, with great weight and texture. vocals are glorious, even if I do feel I'm sitting a few rows back from where I'd like to be. bass is excellent. it's tight, with fast decay, and almost planar like in it's detail. believe it or not, I was more surprised by the bass than I was the highs. I had that feeling the commotion about the highs were exaggeration. but no one talked about the bass. and the bass just blew me away with it's depth and texture. I honestly put the bass on these right up there with my all time bass favorite, my alpha prime. the prime doesn't have the deepest bass, but to my ears, it's the most detailed and textured. well the 700 isn't as good, but boy does it come close.
the soundstage is just as exquisite as you've read elsewhere. it's wide, it's deep, it's precise. if the hd800 didn't exist, it would probably be the best soundstage out there. it's that good.
at 150ohms, the 700 doesn't need a ton of power, but an amp is required. I tried plugging into my iphone 6s and got so so volume levels, and absolutely dead dynamics. it was pretty lifeless, as I expected. I tried it on my dragonfly black. more volume, more dynamics, but still not that great. bass was flubby (it's a word!). highs did pierce. soundstage was tight. those drivers wanted more power. ok, dragonfly red. whoa..... the red is actually powering this thing pretty well! had to lower the volume a lot. the whole sound experience exploded. the stage expanded, the highs smoothed out, the bass tightened up, and it actually sounded....well, good! ok, lets get these on the big rig (bifrost/lyr). WHOA..... take everything I said about the red, and it did it more. finally, the drivers had all the power they needed. the bass now had it's planar like speed and precision. highs further smoothed. extended? yes? harsh? no no no. well not until a death magnetic track came on my shuffled playlist. that made me turn down the volume, I wont lie.
bottom line, for under $500, the hd700 is a killer headphone. it's not the eardrum killer it's reputation suggests. maybe sennheiser did a mid cycle retuning? I suspect so, as all the 2012-2013 reviews were critical. then the 700 seemed to garner refreshed interest around 2015-2016, and those reviews were far more positive. my guess is a few factors are at play here. first, I'm guessing it had a retune around 2014/2015. sennheiser is notorious for retuning their headphone without any press releases or model number changes. please, sennheiser, stop that! I love the fact that you're improving your products. just tell us! second, I think the graph lovers unfairly crucified the set. there were some prominent figures in the audio world who absolutely hated the uneven frequency peaks on the 700. next thing you know, the parrots were out in full force spouting off about graph peaks. and that leads me to my last point, the parrots. if you've spent any time researching the 700 online, you'll have run across the big audio forums like headfi, changstar, sbaf, reddit, etc. and what do you find there? 99% parrots. how many times have I read people say "I've read" or "I heard", when talking about the hd700, and none of them have any firsthand experience with it. I'm not saying there is no useful information there, because there is. you just need to know who's parroting and who's actually speaking from experience.
and that leaves me with this last point, then i'll get off my soapbox. we all hear differently. add to that we all enjoy different sonic signatures. what's bass heavy to one person might be bass light to another, and so on. so I end with this, everything I've said applies to MY OPINIONS FROM FIRSTHAND USE of the hd700. for me, its great. you might like it, you might not. don't take anything here as fact. until YOU put them on and listen for yourself, you wont know the facts FOR YOU. deep breath...stepping off the soapbox......good night......
The Long and Short of It (or TL;DR for the younger folks:) Yes! Buy these headphones. They are amazing. Feed them high quality source material from a device that has enough current to push a big headphone (full size hi-fi gear, outboard headphone DAC/amps, etc) and you'll hear things that only the rare few can. This is about as close to a "state of the art" musical experience as you can have without spending car-sized chunks of cash. Don't buy them if you're just in it for booming bass and sizzling highs. Don't buy them for sound isolation on a plane. There are headphones for that. These are for critical listening, probably in a quiet environment, probably while stationary. (end tl;dr)
I have been a big fan of Sennheiser headphones for many years. The vast bulk of my headphones are from that brand. These include an old and now-ratty but still functional pair of HD 570s, my beloved PX 100s, and an in-ear pair that I can't recall the model number on at this point. I had always looked at the "legit" high end models in the Sennheiser lineup and considered purchasing them. One day, when the sun shined and all was well with the world. My bank balance, anyhow.
Well, years later, I've found myself in a situation where I can take up the study of fine things. I decided that it was time for me to look for that "reference" set of 'phones. Remembering when they came out, and were the best to be had from Sennheiser, I initially looked at the HD 600 model. Nearly bought them right off, but I put them on my wishlist and kept circling back, reading more reviews, etc. The normal obsessive stuff. Well, I gradually "upsold" myself from the 600 to the 650, and finally to the 700. In for a penny, in for a pound, was my thought, and by the end of the buying process. I was in for, ahem, a pound. Still, the HD700s, plus outboard DAC/amp, were well less than the 800s. As in, just a hint over half. I have used my ears as an enthusiast for the better part of 42 years, and while they are still in reasonably good shape, I have probably killed off a few nerves with loud engines, gunfire, concerts, bass guitar playing, and so on. The 700s seemed like a great compromise. A newish design, but still somewhat sane in cost.
That was a bit of a preamble, I see. So sorry. On to business. As is typical of Amazon, I got the package on time and in good shape. The first thought when I saw the Sennheiser packaging inside the shipping cardboard was something on the order of, "Damn, that's a big box!" And it was. For packaging, the 700s get an A+. Beautiful storage/presentation box with actual hinges, pristine foam, and the general heft of a quality product.
The level of fit and finish on these headphones is not readily apparent in the pictures. They are beautiful, futuristic, and substantial in hand. Sliding them on, I find the 700s to be very comfortable, with well distributed weight and plenty of padding. They hold firm to my ears, but not to an uncomfortable level. I really like the fabric-wrapped cord. I have these for my guitars, and they are the bee's knees. Far less likely to bind, pinch, or kink. Also, essentially noiseless. You can rub your fingernail against the cord and it transmits nothing to the headphone (unlike some earbus where every movement or brush of the cord is like thunder in your ear.)
Because some of my order has yet to arrive, my only option for listening to them at present is straight out of my home stereo. Ah, the trials! I am listening from the headphone output of an Onkyo disk player. It appears to have enough power to drive these headphones to a sound level beyond comfort on most source material.
First listen? Also Sprach Zarathustra. Why not, right? The HD 700s are a very neutral, highly revealing set of phones. Small details that will go overlooked or be lost in the mix are easy to hear. At that same time, they are in no way strident or clinical. During the quiet passages of a classical piece, you'll hear the clarinetist turning a page in her score or shifting in her chair. (Okay, I don't know it was the clarinetist. I did hear the musicians rustle and move, however.) Listening to "La Scala" by Keith Jarrett, I could hear far deeper into the mix. His vocalizations came through in such a way as to almost portray his facial expression. When he tapped his foot, I could tell what part of his shoe was hitting the stage. Good stuff. The stuff that keeps us coming back to our favorite disks.
There is no excess warmth or plum-colored bass here. The Sennheisers are here to give you what was recorded. All of it, and with the very minimum of editorializing or rose colored glasses. I have yet to listen to a disk that I know to have some poor recording values, but I can forecast that they'll be presented, warts and all. No, the honeymoon has not yet concluded, and I only want to listen to disks I really know and love yet. I have the sense that it is going to be a great ride.
What else? Well, I think they should throw in a 1/8" adapter, considering the price. Having to purchase one separately seems odd. That's one of my only quibbles. A lot has been said about the amount of sound that comes out into the room at large from open back headphones, but at perfectly satisfying sound levels, I find that the sound coming out into the room is exceedingly faint. It would take a very quiet room, a loud passage in the music, and quite a fussbudget to be annoyed by the external sound leakage here. One interesting note - if you put your ear right up to the side of the earpiece while it's playing, the sound is basically identical to what you've been hearing on the inside of the headphones. I can only infer that the transducers in these headphones are essentially open dipole radiators, operating in free air. Kinda neat.
I've said a lot of things about how these headphones sound. While we do purchase nominally audiophile equipment using terms both objective and subjective, we don't buy them for adjectives or statistics. In the end, we buy them because they allow us to connect with music on a deep level, and that is, for whatever reason, very important to us. I will share this, then, in the hopes that it will clarify some things. In the few short hours I've had these headphones, I've had at least three moments when the music hit me so hard that I couldn't do anything but close my eyes and feel it. That's the magic. That's why any amount of consideration, obsession, or cost seems worthwhile. Because some of us have our ears wired straight to our hearts.
Should you buy these headphones? If you've read this far, absolutely. One hundred percent recommended.
Top reviews from other countries
Upon receiving them, I was amazed with the high quality construction, materials and of course the comfort. These are very light, amazingly comfortable, and keep your head/ears cool. As others have said, the comfort alone will justify the price. For music they sound better than anything else I've tried, but I'm not that experienced with high quality headphones. I feel the DAC/AMP doubled the quality of my other headphones compared to just plugging it into the computer. And these headphones doubled it again over my other headphones. I can really feel the soundstage and when watching a movie on Bluray, the positioning/accuracy is exquisite.
When I was younger, I invested a lot into a proper home theater setup, but with family and kids, it's just not feasible to crank movies or video games anymore. But with these headphones, I can capture much of that but without disturbing others. If you spend several hours a day with headphones on, then these are definitely worth the investment. I don't recommend using these in an open office environment unless you keep the volume down, as the sound leakage is significant. Finally, they just look cool!
como maldicion escucharas todo!!, hasta las imperfecciones de una grabacion como ruidos y hasta la estatica de los
aparatos de sonido con los que grabaron.
Su SoundStage es bastante amplio, mas de lo que imaginaba, las tonalidades son exquisitas, el grave es muy natural, nada sintetico y
son muy comodos, lo suficientemente ligeros para no molestar y poder traerlos buen rato sin acordarte que los traes puestos.
no es un equipo para conectar a un celular o laptop directamente.. (ajeno a su plug de 6.3mm) su impedancia de 150 ohms hara que
su sonido sea muy hueco, vacio y sin vida si es conectado a algo que no sea un DAC amplificado o amplificador dedicado. (que no es 100% obligatorio pero es lo mejor que se puede hacer con un equipo como este)
como debe saberse el equipo ademas de un DAC o Amplificador habra que reproducir musica de buena calidad, un WAV podra ir bien, unos audios de mayor resolucion que un CD de audio seria magnifico para aprovecharlos.. (para los que solo tienen sus colecciones en mp3 es mejor ir por otro camino).
sin embargo no todo sera miel sobre hojuelas. considero que un auricular de este nivel y sobre todo PRECIO. tendria que dar una sensacion al tacto mas especial y lujosa (que no digo que no luzcan y se palpen bien), pero existe un tacto a plastico, y bordes imperfectos de material,
algo que a este nivel y precio no deberia existir.
el cable incluido es muy robusto..es muy largo y se siente muy duradero de un material como malla plastica, hasta que llega la parte del separador de canal. ya que de ahi en adelante el cable es normal, mas grueso de lo normal pero del mismo material que cualqier cable.

su sonido sea muy hueco, vacio y sin vida si es conectado a algo que no sea un DAC amplificado o amplificador dedicado. (que no es 100% obligatorio pero es lo mejor que se puede hacer con un equipo como este)
como debe saberse el equipo ademas de un DAC o Amplificador habra que reproducir musica de buena calidad, un WAV podra ir bien, unos audios de mayor resolucion que un CD de audio seria magnifico para aprovecharlos.. (para los que solo tienen sus colecciones en mp3 es mejor ir por otro camino).
sin embargo no todo sera miel sobre hojuelas. considero que un auricular de este nivel y sobre todo PRECIO. tendria que dar una sensacion al tacto mas especial y lujosa (que no digo que no luzcan y se palpen bien), pero existe un tacto a plastico, y bordes imperfectos de material,
algo que a este nivel y precio no deberia existir.
el cable incluido es muy robusto..es muy largo y se siente muy duradero de un material como malla plastica, hasta que llega la parte del separador de canal. ya que de ahi en adelante el cable es normal, mas grueso de lo normal pero del mismo material que cualqier cable.
Ottima per musica classica e jazz acustico. Leggermente sibilanti gli acuti ma non fastidiosi
一番良い点は通常のヘッドホンでは耳が覆いきれない人でもすっぽり包み込んでくれる点です
また、約290gとこの値段帯の中では軽いため、長時間のFPSでも問題ありません
問題なのは生産を終了しているので壊れた時に困る点です ぜひメーカーには再販か似た形のヘッドホンを開発してほしいです
