Sennheiser HD 400S – Over-Ear Headphone with Smart Remote, Black

Top build quality.
High build quality, excellent sound although not so much on the highs. Nevertheless very enjoyable.

Great sound
Fiancée LOVES these, great sound, decent durability, really light and comfortable over ear headphones

Great audio but uncomfortable
Audio quality was very satisfying and noise cancellation works but after a few uses I noticed the top of my head and ears would hurt after only an hour or two of use. So it’s hard to reccomend but it’s probably easier if you don’t wear glasses.

2 year review: Don’t bother.
I have owned these headphones for 2 years, in which time they’ve seen fairly light use as my portable set that I take on long walks, train journeys etc. I have probably taken them out roughly 15-20 times at most.I have almost nothing positive to say about these headphones. Even before they broke (which I’ll get to shortly), it was apparent that they were riddled with design flaws and quality issues.As many other reviewers have noted, comfort is poor. People with larger ears have reported that the openings of the ear cups are quite small and can pinch the ears around the edges. I’m fortunate enough to have ears small enough to fit inside the cups, but still found that the foam around them was a little firm and could cause numbness around my ears after fairly brief periods of time. Worse than this is the headband, which has no padding, just a vaguely flexible rubber strip, and feels like it’s cutting into your head after a short while.If you can put up with the discomfort, the plastic of the headphones creaks and groans like an arthritic old man’s knees whenever you move your head, and the thudding of your footsteps is also somehow transferred directly into your ears. This is rather intrusive and difficult to ignore, making them poor for journeys and rubbish when walking. Sound quality is a little flat but generally okay for the price, so you can enjoy this as long as you keep perfectly stationary to avoid having it spoiled by the sound of creaking plastic. It’s also worth mentioning that the cable is very thin and feels like it could snap easily if it ever got caught in anything.Late last year, the joint of the right cup which allows rotation left and right snapped when taking the headphones off, leaving the cup hanging freely. The joint is so small that I’m surprised it didn’t break sooner (I’ve attemped to show the break in the pictures but the size made it difficult. It’s the small, grey looking inner ring inside the hinge). I wrapped it in duct tape as a remedy, which meant that the cup no longer fitted flush with my head. Last week, the same joint broke in the left cup when taking them out of my rucksack. So they have now been unceremoniously binned.I was led to believe that Sennheiser produce headphones of excellent quality at all price points, but these were so poor that I will be avoiding them like ebola for the foreseeable future. They’re rubbish for travelling but I can’t recommend them for use at a desk either due to the discomfort, nasty plastic creaking and the overall flimsiness of the build.Save your money and find an alternative.

As a new podcaster, I have recently discovered the Sennheiser Over Ear Headphones HD 400S in black, and I have to say, I am thoroughly impressed. As someone who has always been a music listener, I knew I wanted a high-quality audio experience when it came to podcasting, but I wasn’t quite sure where to start. The HD 400S has definitely exceeded my expectations without breaking the bank.First of all, the sound quality of these headphones is exceptional. The HD 400S delivers a balanced and clear sound across the entire frequency spectrum. The bass is punchy, but not overpowering, while the mids and highs are crisp and detailed. As a result, I have been able to enjoy my music and podcasts in a new way, picking up on nuances and details that I had never noticed before.The build quality of the HD 400S is also impressive. The headphones are lightweight, yet feel sturdy and well-constructed. The ear cups are soft and comfortable, and the adjustable headband ensures a snug and secure fit.It is important to note that everyone’s ears are unique, so the level of comfort when wearing the HD 400 headphones for extended periods may vary from person to person. (I can attest to this based on my own personal experience)This is particularly useful for podcasters, as it allows you to switch between using the headphones for monitoring and recording with ease. The headphone’s cable is also durable and tangle-free, which is a nice touch.In terms of design, the HD 400S is sleek and minimalistic, with a black matte finish that looks great. The headphones fold up for easy storage and transport, making them ideal for use on the go.Overall, I would highly recommend the Sennheiser Over Ear Headphones HD 400S in black to anyone in need of high-quality headphones for podcasting or music listening. They offer exceptional sound quality, durability, and comfort at a very reasonable price point.
