My only gripes are that the headset can be a tight fit for those with big noggings (like myself) and the surprising lack of a Lightning/USB Type-C adaptor. At only 290 grams, it’s a great candidate for commute, work, and play. Our favorite thing about the M-200 is the light, compact design. They are excellent for music and, more importantly, gaming.
These pro-grade cans feature large 50mm drivers and have a wide frequency response of 5Hz to 40kHz. Not so great mic -Fit a little too tight -No lightning or USB Type-C adapter If you're looking for a headset for just gaming, the Nuraphones aren't it, though-$450 (adding in the microphone, which is a must for gaming) is simply too huge an ask if you are mostly looking for gaming-centric features. It's one of the best looking pair of cans you find right now, and custom sound profiles offer rich and detailed soundscape like no other thing out there. The Nuraphone is an excellent set of wireless headphones, and the gaming microphone attachment makes it a decent gaming headset. Most notably, the introduction of active noise cancellation (ANC) and a gaming microphone attachment ($50), in an attempt to rival even the most premium gaming headsets. The Nuraphones have already gone through a handful of significant updates since their successful Kickstarter launch three years ago. In essence, it's like having a pair of speakers for each ear. The in-ear drivers handle the upper-frequency, and the over-ear drivers handle the low-tones and bass.
The Nuraphone is a one-of-a-kind pair of headphones that offers parallel drivers for each ear. Gaming mic is $50 extra -Aurally invasive We don't suspect much to change in the short-term as a result of the acquisition, but it wouldn't be surprising to see prices spike for second-hand Sennheiser pairs once the deal is signed off, which is meant to happen before the year's up. One thing to note: Sennheiser recently sold off its audiophile headphone business to hearing aid company, Sonova. Just don't expect any massive discounts (unless you're lucky) these headphones really hold their value. Its a great fit for pretty much everything.Īnd if you balk at the price, the Sennheiser HD 650 are very well built and the second-hand market is a great place to find a slightly cheaper pair.
That's also why it's a shoo-in for every aural experience, be that gaming or listening to music. For that reason, this is a great headset if you want to chase spotless audio delivered impeccably through a wide soundstage. It's definitely lighter on the bass response compared to most gaming headsets and planar magnetics, though.īut you could say that's because this pair of headphones isn't augmenting your audio-only delivering to you something close to the real digital deal. That means it excels at the high-end and delivers superb clarity and definition right the way through the frequency range. The HD 650 is a prime advocate of the so-called 'Sennheiser sound'.
This quality pair of cans sets the standard for high-end home audio thanks to highly detailed drivers and a gorgeous open sound. That's primarily built on headphones like these: the Sennheiser HD 650.
Sennheiser has made a mighty name for itself in the audio equipment game.
