Sennheiser PX100 Headphones Review
Almost what could be considered a design classic the Sennheiser PX100 Headphones are a perfect mesh of good audio properties, nice design, comfort and ease of use.
These headphones are open backed and so allow ambient external noise to penetrate which is ideal for listeners who wish to remain aware of what is going on around them (Joggers, Cyclists, etc). They have a solid audio profile which has a very listenable high end, not in any way harsh or raspy and also has a deeply satisfying bass end.

Comfort wise the PX100s are well padded and will adjust nicely to just about any head. We have found them to be extremely practical and easy on the ears in terms of rubbing and chafing. What’s more the PX 100s fold up conveniently like a pair of sunglasses and can easily be popped in a jacket pocket along with your iPod or alternately stored in the carrying case they are supplied with.
All in all a great buy in the sub $50 price range, and ideal accompaniment to an iPod. Lets face it those little white ear buds might look nice but they really don’t produce a proper sound for the serious music fan, the PX100s are a great upgrade. We have no reservations recommending the Sennheiser PX100s, excellent value for the money.

A very good sound if you require a headphone that folds up into a small compact case.
