The good: The lightweight Sennheiser PX100-IIi improves on an earlier design with reinforced hinges for extra durability, an in-line remote, and single-sided cabling for tangle-free transportation and storage in the included carrying bag.
The bad: A prevalent midbass hump muddies the low-end spectrum and adds misplaced sonic weight for music with homophonic melodies, such as classical and jazz.
The bottom line: Despite their lightweight structure, the Sennheiser PX100-IIi headphones are surprisingly powerful, and we recommend them for travelers, students, and anyone else shopping for new open-backed headphones.

Pros: Sound profile is warm; bass reproduction is impressive in on-ear drivers of this size. They are quite comfortable; ear fatigue is virtually nil even after several hours of use. Extremely faithful reproduction of source material.
Cons: Construction is slightly flimsy. These 'phones will not suffer even medium abuse gladly. Straight plug virtually guarantees cord short eventually. L-plug would have been better. Could be a little louder.
Summary: At low to medium volumes, the ability to hear adjacent noises is excellent. These are great for situations that require sonic awareness of surroundings such as bike messaging, waiting rooms, ...

Summary: At low to medium volumes, the ability to hear adjacent noises is excellent. These are great for situations that require sonic awareness of surroundings such as bike messaging, waiting rooms, etc. Quality for for price makes them a superb value. Smart phone control (mic, answer/end call, volume adjustment, play/pause, next/last track) is really just the icing on a cake that already tastes pretty damn good. I love these headphones.
