Sennheiser HD 350BT Bluetooth 5.0 Wireless Headphone - 30-Hour Battery Life, USB-C Fast Charging, Virtual Assistant Button, Foldable - Black
- Let me start by saying I am an amateur audio enthusiast that loves a balanced and detailed sound signature. I don\'t care about making phone calls or active noise cancellation (ANC). For the most part, I wear headphones in quiet places to listen to music and ANC usually messes up the sound signature anyway. Just give me good audio with passive noise isolation and I am satisfied. Second, I don\'t care for the bloated bass you find in most consumer headphones. Just let me hear what was recorded with clarity, detail, natural tonality, and a great sound stage. I\'ve spent a modest amount on DACs, amps, earphones, and headphones to deliver the kind of sound that makes you remember why you love music so much.But there are times when I just want to kick back and relax and not be tied down by wires. My solution to date has been EarStudio\'s ES100 and a good pair of IEMs. The AAC codec from an iPhone using high-quality music source (FLAC, Amazon Ultra HD) with high-end in-ear monitors sound reasonably close to my wired Drop HD6XX or Hifiman HE400i cans on my Schiit stack. I had tried a few over-ear Bluetooth headphones but nothing has ever sounded even close to what I consider high quality audio. Either too much bass or an ANC system that interfered with the audio signature (on or off). Nothing met my amateur audiophile aspirations.That is until I got Sennheiser HD 350BT. After reading a few of the reviews, I almost didn\'t order them. But for under $100 I decided to take a chance. From the first listen I was blown away by the balanced sound signature. Not that far off from the Sennheiser house sound signature. After 20+ hours of breaking them in, the bass has opened up just a little and the mids are still wonderfully natural and perfectly placed evenly in the mix. And while these are not as good as a wired over-ear headphone on a high-quality dac/amp, for a wireless audio headphone solution these come close enough to free me from the wires and not feel like I am missing much.The bass is solid from sub-bass to mid-bass without muddying up the lower mids. These are not consumer bass-head cans with bloated bass. You can feel the thump of bass drums and toms on ears. The bass is present way down into the frequency range, but there isn\'t an overpowering slam nor is it the star of the show. But it is clean and surprisingly detailed. And the sound app EQ settings, which is too simplistic, still let\'s you bump the bass some if you need a little more. Listening to Marcus Miller on Laid Black is great for illustrating how well these handle the lower frequencies. Miller\'s bass solos are a pure pleasure listen to.Mids are where many headphones fall short - either missing the natural sound of voices and instruments or placing them behind/under the bass and highs. Yet this is where much of the audio is in most genres of music. Voices, guitars, strings, woodwinds, brass, and snares/toms bring the bulk of audio that is to be heard. The HD 350BT shines here. Sennheiser really shows they know how to shape a balanced sound signature around high-quality mids. Listening to Boney James on Future Soul I heard a natural and realistic alto sax sound that is so, so good.The highs are also very good and actually somewhat relaxed for Sennheiser. I prefer just a little more air and sparkle, but even without EQ these are delightful. However, using the very-basic EQ settings in the Sennheiser Sound Control app I was able to bump the highs to add exactly what I was looking for. Cymbals and triangles ring clear and the detail and imaging provided is very good for Bluetooth wireless audio. No distortion, sibilance, or feel of grainy treble. You can hear small details of instrument decay, reverb, and echoes in the room. Listening to the Marcin Wasilewski Trio with Joakim Miller on Spark of Life, I was able to hear the detailed clicks of drumsticks and subtle crash of cymbals of Michal Miskiewicz\'s excellent musicality on the drums in each song.But what I love best about the HD 350BT is the excellent dynamics and sound stage. I\'m not sure how Sennheiser worked their magic building a digital audio decoder and amp into a headphone that delivers such an excellent sound stage. But I am very happy they did. They sound equally good at low volume or high. Overall dynamics from soft to loud is incredible for a wireless audio product. The stage is wider than average with a good bit of depth and height. They detail of the highs provided just enough air give that sense of spaciousness and realism I really enjoy. It really put these over the top for me.Note that these are not the loudest headphones and to get these cranking they need to be in excess of 75% volume, which does not leave much room at the top end. But given the excellent passive noise isolation, they are more than loud enough for most, even in a moderately loud environment. The Sound Control App is marginally useful. The EQ works, but is essentially a three-band equalizer that can be toggled between a hard to use visual representation or a linear hi/mid/low band setting that is easier to use. I do wish that Sennheiser could have provided a 5 or 7 band EQ. But as I said it works - just could be better.I also found the HD 350BT headphones to be very comfortable and can wear them for hours at a time with no discomfort. That said, the ear pads are soft but somewhat small and could be problematic for someone with larger ears. The build quality is solid despite the plastic material used for the majority of the body. They also look great in black to me. But don\'t expect frills, a case, or even a bag. The focus at this price is on a great audio, not accessories.If you are more of an audio purist, love the natural sound signature/tonality of Sennheiser products and don\'t care about ANC, then these are a huge steal at under $100. Forget the HD 450BT and it\'s ANC, get these instead. And no need to spend $300 or more on Sony and Bose. Spend your money on great audio. These simply sound great!
- I got these as a replacement for my last pair of over the ear headphones that recently broke. I decided to get a pair of headphones that cost a bit more to avoid having to replace broken headphones every year. I like these for the most part. There\'s an app you have to download to change the audio settings and stuff which was a bit weird at first trying to figure out but I\'ve gotten the settings to pretty good quality.My only problem with these headphones is that my previous 40 dollar headphones had way better volume and noise cancelling abilities. With these I can still hear the background noise if its loud enough while those completely blocked them out. These also don\'t get as loud so I probably wouldn\'t buy these again.
- when I was on the hunt for a set of over the ear headphones, I realized a lot of the reviews were very detailed and tend to pick apart the product, which is totally fine but for the average person it seems like a good product is impossible to find! i am not an audiophile by any means but i mostly listen to music in spanish so i love a good bass and have heard great things about Sennheiser.pros: so pretty! the white color especially. good size, i have a big head and they fit great! they are not noise canceling which is fine since i use these when working from home and i want to be aware of my sorroundings but they cancel out ambient nose as it advertises!the only thing i do not like is that they don\'t come with a case but you can easily find one on amazon. overall for $80 these are a great find from a reputable brand and i definitely recommend! as a side note, something about putting on over the ear headphones and putting on your favorite music makes it so easy to focus and get things done! :)
- Great sound quality. Slip of my head a bit when at the gym. Wish they would stay turned off, Bluetooth from my phone seems to turn them on automatically. But the sound quality is worth the niggles.
- These are amazing! Firstly, the battery lasts me weeks for my use case. I can wear them for hours and my head doesn’t hurt like it did with other over ear headphones i’ve used prior. I have an abnormally small head, small enough for me to only be able to wear kids glasses and for no single hat to look right, but these headphones look normal on me (on the smallest setting)! that’s all I could ask for, in a world of headphones looking goofily large, they look normal on me.
- I got these to use mainly for air travel. I guess for the price they aren\'t bad, but they certainly aren\'t great. Build quality is decent but probably not something that will last with a lot of use. Not very comfortable for long periods. Sound is just decent, but fine for listening to audio books on flights. I wouldn\'t buy them again because there are many other choices available that will probably do a better job.
