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

Product Information

For example, when I was listening to the song Didn’t Cha Know by Erykah Badu, the high-hat had emphasis, but felt less chunky than usual. It was emphasized more toward the upper treble and octave. Additionally, the hand drum had a slightly different shape than usual, but maintained a good balance in the mix. Lastly, Erykah’s vocal had nice detail and had good audible air during the “oo”s and “hey”s. Soundstage

The high frequencies of the Sennheiser HD400S have emphasis in various places across the lower treble, upper treble, and upper octave. However, it also has a cut around what sounds like 9 kHz. As a result, the highs have a unique shape that is able to give detail to high frequency instruments while avoiding sibilance. Other options will be the audio technica M20X and samson Sr850. Audio technica will be good fit for only music production. As they will sound flat and won't give you the enjoyment in other scenarios like gaming, movies etc.You can't speak of naturalness or authenticity with the HD400S and it definitely can't be described as an all-rounder. Stage and imaging are average here. With an inline mic and remote, the Sennheiser HD400S headphones are the perfect on-ear headphone match for your smartphone or tablet. With their large ear pads, the HD400S’s fit around your ears rather than simply sitting on top of them. This and the padded headband make them comfortable for longer listening sessions. For their size, they’re also surprisingly light.

One of the main considerations Sennheiser had for the HD 400S was its context of use. These headphones have a very low impedance, making them perfect for mobile devices that might not have the power to drive more resistant headphones. The driver is still of Sennheiser’s own design and can balance clarity with power. The detachable cable features a control unit with a built-in mic of excellent quality, especially for calls.

For example, when I was listening to the song Daydreaming by Middle Brother, the stringiness of the acoustic guitar felt emphasized over its body. Additionally, while the electric guitar had a sense of midrange, it leaned a bit toward the high mids. It was able to maintain its sense of harmonic complexity, but had a particular sense of clarity. For other genres, this may have felt somewhat thin, but for this genre it worked quite well. Lastly, the vocal sounded louder in the mix than usual, and stepped forward in the soundstage as well. High Frequencies The HD 400S exacts a secure clamping force around the head while remaining comfortable. Built into the underside of the headband is thin padding coated with soft rubber or silicone material to ensure the headphones stay in place. Die mitgelieferte Smart Remote ist ein praktisches Feature, das die Bedienung noch einfacher macht. Ich kann die Lautstärke anpassen, Titel überspringen und Anrufe entgegennehmen, ohne mein Gerät in die Hand nehmen zu müssen. Das ist besonders praktisch unterwegs oder wenn ich gerade beschäftigt bin.

Ich habe vor kurzem den Sennheiser HD 400S Over-Ear-Kopfhörer mit Smart Remote in Schwarz erworben und bin absolut begeistert von der Leistung und dem Komfort, den er bietet. The bass is somewhat isolated from the rest of the signature and is really good in itself. Powerful with emphasis in the subrange, without exaggerating it. For driving beats or hip-hop a fun affair and quite detailed. But the mids are the deal breaker on the H400s. These are very unbalanced and especially voices are sometimes hard to bear as they can get very shrill. In general the H400S is too bright and tonally inconsistent. The trebles also don't have a big extension and sometimes sound a bit tinny. The Sennheiser HD 400s headphone is a wired headphone with a supraaural ear coupling. It does not feature a noise-canceling microphone. The maximum sound pressure level of 120 dB makes it perfect for listening to music, watching movies, and playing games without any distortion. Constructed with premium materials, it guarantees long-term durability and reliability. The audio cable is removable, but unfortunately the connector is not compatible with external cables. The cable also has a remote and measures 140cm.Prices valid in stores (all including VAT) until close of business on 2nd November 2023.
