 | Worth the gamble V. C. on 17.10.2006 It was a gamble for me to purchase the 555 without trying it out but it paid off. Very light and sounds fantastic. |
| Absolute Beauties O. K. on 31.10.2006 After a month of listening I am very happy with these cups. The response is almost perfectly linear so the sound is accurately reproduced as intended by the artist - it sounds so good that I have turned off the bass-boost in the EQ. My first good set of headphones - I hope they last forever. |
 | Sennheiser HD555 B. W. on 23.12.2006 These headphones are not only great for music, they are also very good for FPS games. I can hear where people are coming if they're above me, to my right. Very useful for counter-strike :D |
| Sennheiser HD555 L. R. on 04.06.2005 The Sennheiser HD555 is one of the best headsets I have used to date. The HD 555s are open, full-sized headphones, and they're comfortable even if you wear them for a long time. The main use of them for me is listening to music, watching movies and computer gaming. The sound is crystal clear and the bass is outstanding. The headset is very comfortable and very light, its as if you are wearing nothing at all. These headphones are great for a HIFI system as they act like a surround sound system. For this money, I doubt you can buy a better headset anywhere. Highly recommended. |
| Home Theatre on a Budget C. C. on 06.07.2006 High end sound for moderate money. I will get myself a quality home theatre system one day, but in the meantime these headphones will do nicely. I am amazed at the subtle sounds which normally would not be heard through mainspeakers. You forget that you are wearing headphones. They sound even better after they are broken in after about 50 hours use. |
