Sennheiser Momentum Review - Over Ear Edition

[@wuhanjohn4900]

9 years later these are still incredible.

[@VeggiePopper]

10 years later, I'm still loving them.

[@justinpow92]

Picked these up when they first came out and immediately put them back in the box after 2 hours of listening, but recently after a little burn-in I've found that they sound absoulutely fantastic especially with a headphone amp like a Fiio e12 or an Audiolab M-DAC. Great review as always, love your videos. Keep up the good work!

[@BusinessPapers]

What initially turned you off to them?

[@justinpow92]

I guess it was the rolled off treble and the fact that I didn't have a portable amp at the time made them sound a little underpowered despite being a headset that is relatively easy to drive. The amp really made a big difference and opened up the Momentums quite nicely, I use them daily now for on the go use.

[@spartafxrs5]

Finally!!!! I've been waiting (for moths) for you to make a review of these cans!!! Now I'm 200% convinced that this headphones is very amazing!!!

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

They are simply amazing. In my top 5 for sure.

[@2icelollys1goat]

Thanks for making such an enjoyable and thorough review. Excellent job.... covering seemingly every area!

[@dougv3503]

Great review, covered everything I wanted to know. You convinced me, definitely have to get these

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Let us know what you think when you do get them!

[@faristengku6247]

Hey man. Enjoyed your review of the Momentum. I like your emphasis on user experience rather than those nit picky sonic analysis. The review seemed well planed as well and the video contents are pretty relevant for the average consumers. Would like a few remarks on whether the headphone gets warm on extended sessions, I think it's pretty important. Keep up the good work :)

[@himalaya884443]

I love the fact you actually tested the blocking capacity for the headphone. Cheers mate!

[@smaganas]

I've had these since they came out. Only recently did I connect them to a high end amp. Wow!!! I'm glad I never got rid of them.

[@rguil15]

Hey, just wanted to let you know I thought you did a great job doing this review. Very well done! Thanks for doing this.

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Thank you!

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Owen Thurston On the being rough on the headphones...it sounds like you could damage the wires. Wouldn't really hurt the headphones but you'd probably end up spending quite a bit of money buying new cables for your Momentums.

[@Technically_Working]

Just found a set of these at a local goodwill for $4.99 awesome headphones.

[@snake8584]

Nice review. I've owned these for about 6 months now and I take them everywhere with me. I do wear glasses so I highly appreciate your mention on that. The first few weeks of owning these, I couldn't stand to keep them on my head for longer than an hour. They would cause the legs of my glasses to dig into my head, right behind my ears. I discovered I could stuff a little bit of material in between the driver and the earpad a bit more room. This gave me just a hair under 1/4" additional clearance and no more discomfort.

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Fantastic tip!!!

[@MisterStyker]

Hey Man, Your video was great. Neat, real things audiophiles like me look for. The editing is amazing as well. Unfortunately, I live in Canada, so I couldn't purchase the headphones from your link :( But I still got them! I give the credit to you tho. Great job.

[@ike7310]

this guy makes the best reviews. keep up the good work man!

[@AlexandreAubrey]

On the topic of wearing these with glasses: I wear glasses and I've had these headphones for almost a year now, I've worn them for over 12 hours straight on many occasions. I have had some slight discomfort starting after 3-4 hours of wearing them without changing the position (although I guess that's to be expected if you wear them for such a long duration) but the discomfort went away as soon as I moved them around a bit and I feel overall very satisfied with these headphones. I agree with all the positive points made in this review in regards to the sound quality and would definitely recommend this product.

[@legolator]

Hey. I just wanted to stop by and say thank you for a good review, I bought a pair of these about 1-2 weeks after you released this review and I haven't looked back. They sound and feel great but you where also right about the snuggness of the earphone, but I find that even though it's a tighter fit than most over-ear headphones they still feel great even after hours of listening. I do a fair bit of flying in my line of work and these headphones almost block out all the noise even when in a smaller airplane like a SAAB 2000. Anyways, great review, great channel. P.S: I got the Ivory ones. :)

[@jjdiaz8117]

Hi, are you experiencing this with your Sennheiser Momentum: the right ear cup has more bass volume than the left?

[@Hallouminatiee]

Excellent review, thank you. I was stuck between these at the new Beats Studio and subject to the cups fitting my ears, I will now purchase these. Thanks.

[@deepu4puppy]

got the momentums..i have to say these are the best listening experience i had in my life..not even on ear momentums which i have come close..u were pretty spot on with your impressions..keep up..ordered fiio x3 too after ur review of fiiox3..

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Awesome man. Love to hear that other people find the same things I do when listening.

[@ouattaraismael3526]

Still using it, the best headphone i ever had!!!

[@vraellar]

Love the dog, made the review memorable for me!

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

The real star of the show! :-)

[@jollyroger5689]

normal dog to buy, for example weimaraner

[@fullmetalsal]

Excellent review. I have these cans and recommend them 100%

[@TAZ427COBRA]

Thanks for the review. I was going back and forth on what to buy as I wanted a decent monitor set but also listening sound. I got them and tried them, comparing with several different headphones that I (and my son) owns. Awesome response across the entire spectrum. Handled everything from Dubstep (no muddy sounds from being over driven base) to Whitney Houston peaks. Awesome listening to everything from R&B, Blues, Jazz, Rock, Metal, etc.

[@tomgardner5006]

Thanks for the detailed, in depth review, minus all the unnecessary technical stuff. I wanted to know how they actually perform. I was leaning toward these before, I'm getting a pair for my daughter and another for myself after watching.

[@kevintang7930]

Thomas Gardner wait, how old is your daughter and does she really need these high quality, expensive headphones. if she doesnt need it, just get some 40-60 dollar headphones.

[@tomgardner5006]

Kevin Tang​, if it's all the same to you, here in America I get to do whatever the flip I want with my money. But thanks for the info.

[@kevintang7930]

im american to- ok and calm down

[@per_ringnes]

Your review was so good that it made me go buy the Sennheiser Momentum :)

[@guyfromsac1]

Nice review. I like your work. You give the info I need and not a lot of silly observations. Good production values also. Will be looking for more! How about the new Blue MoFi cans and the Senn Momentum In-Ear when they are released?

[@sergiykrynytsky]

Hello buddy. Once you've already helped me to choose and it was worth it. Here I go again. Simple question. Momentums or ATH M50x?

[@hailh3989]

Got mine for 20$ used. I have changed the pads for a new ones. Nice

[@NavarroOne]

Great review, I've shortlisted the Sennheiser momentum and Bose QC15. I travel a lot so noisecancelling would be great but I am loathe to get NC that won't play if I run out of battery. I've noted instruments in favorite songs I hadn't heard before on the Momentums so with your rave review I am confident I'll pick up a pair of Momentum over-ear headphones next week when visiting Dubai.

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Did you get them?!

[@deepu4puppy]

excellent review allen..yu almost made my day as i was just a bit hesitant or u can say borderline as to order the momentums over the vmodas..ur review absolutely nailed it and i had to order the momentums...now eagerly waiting for that ..u get 10 thums up from me ...deserved...

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Thanks a million. Let me know your thoughts when you get them!

[@DMCK2000]

Love your taste in music, especially Sting and his song "If You Love Somebody" it's one of my favorites, and I really liked your review and I'm totally subbing to you. Great job and keep it up!

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Thanks!

[@DMCK2000]

Your welcome

[@DMCK2000]

HeadphoneReviewHQ Plus those headphones are amazing! I love them.

[@Steve.Hodges]

After trying out many headphones the past couple of months I finally found what I was looking for in the Momentum. A good movie headphone with awesome sounds!

[@Steve.Hodges]

mobile (not movie), LOL!

[@Séananigans69]

Brilliant review fella, I’ve owned the 2.0 and just bought a pair of 1.0, with the 2.0 my ears seemed to touch the inside and were uncomfortable after a while but the 1.0 seem a tad deeper. Unless my ears have shrunk?!?.

[@1988remixx]

Great review thanks I've been waiting for your review in the Momentums. I actually bought a pair to use with my iPhone 5 and really liked them. But I thought I was missing something so I sold them and got a pair of Beyerdynamics DT880 32ohm, hated it, then Ultrasone Pro900, hated it and ended up buying another pair of black/red over ear Momentums. I think these are perfect for iPhone, iPad, iPod listeners!

[@allenunderwood6906]

LOL....headphones can be frustrating huh?! I think for MOST people, the Momentums would be one of the last pairs they'd ever really feel the need to get. They're really that good, especially when compared to all the other options out there.

[@1988remixx]

Well, confession time. I actually sold the black/red ones, LOL!! Went with AKG K545's. I believe once I couple those with the Mont Blanc I just ordered I'll have close to the perfect setup I need. I really didn't want to go the amp route but at least I know now that if I do back up to like a HD650 I can push it now!

[@KrishnaKrishna-wo8xt]

I went to bestbuy to get the sennheiser hd 558. After listening to the sennheiser momentum, I changed my decision due to the noise isolation and clear audio

[@gpeking01]

Awesome sound very comfortable and light

[@yehudaackerman1843]

i just bought these and they are amazing. the ear cups are a bit small but the cushions are very soft and not uncomfortable at all. and they sound great too

[@TwiddleJones]

I am thinking about getting these, would you say you have big or small ears?

[@yehudaackerman1843]

about 70 mm tall

[@TwiddleJones]

Thanks for the response and also are these good for listening to Hip Hop?

[@josesanchezpalacios8991]

Loved the review.

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Thanks Jose

[@estybohbot9641]

Thanks a lot for your review, helped me to decide and by it!

[@filipuskurniawan]

I've been missing ur review for a quiet time man haha.. I remember that u mentioned to do comparison of this cans with M100. Hope it'll come soon

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

I'm going to try and get that live this weekend.

[@filipuskurniawan]

cool

[@Bugv]

Great Review. I might buy them, they're about $300 au now.

[@jjnguy13]

Thanks for the detail.

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

My pleasure.

[@FDLink]

Good review. I want these headphones, but I have a dilemma. The on-ear versions are very affordable and available right over at my local Best Buy. That said, I'm leaning towards the over-ear, but they cost $100+ more than the on-ear (from Amazon). Is there enough of a difference between the two models to justify spending that much more on the over-ears?

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

I've not heard the on ear version so I can't give any personal experience.

[@janatenahuowen54]

DOG! Thanks for the review, Loving your dog.

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

:-) They like to make cameo appearances from time to time!

[@dagg497]

Sennheiser Momentum 2 was better than both Bose QC 25, Sony MDR-100AAP/ABN/1A, B&W P3/P5 and was even with Denon when I gave some headphones a try in some stores! Review below! --Senheiser-- The Sennheiser had pleasant warm sounding sound frequency response and very good detail across the range. They made music listening fun and the music felt alive. They were not punchy in the bass like Sony or AKG or Koss but they were really fun to listen too and they had alot of bass but it was true to the recording and balanced and fun. I've never liked any Sennheiser headphone or in-ear bud before because I always found Sennheiser to be unengaging, flat and boring to listen to - Not these ones! --Noise Cancelling-- Now for Noise cancelling I found them better than both Sony and Bose. I didn't really measure how much sound they kept out or how much hizz/white noise they introduced. It's just that the Sennheiser didn't play music worse with it engaged. Furthermore I could not keep the Bose's on for very long because the NC applied an air pressure to my eardrums so It felt like i was on a plane and needed to pop the negative pressure out of my ears, not very pleasant to have that sensation. --Sound competition-- I have an B&W surround system at home and tried many headphones up towards 1 000$ range. I wanted to find a descent price for something that might get lost or broken so I settled for around USD. The Bose QC-25 was very uncomfortable to listen to. It induced a air pressure from the NC that wasn't comfortable. The sound quality was lousy. I loved these trying them on 2 years ago but not now. All songs I tried with them in 320Kbit made them sound like 128Kbit versions of the same song. It has some serious compression and detail problems. Besides all music sounding like digital jitter in comparison to the Senheiser, they feel like they try more than they can manage both in bassresponse and treble. It's just like Bose's other products "An underdimensioned speaker trying to sound larger" - It doesn't work! I can't say I liked ANY of the Sony alternatives not the 100ABN 100AAP or 1A. The bass was punchy and lossy. The treble was so sharp It made my ears cringe of pain at even medium sound levels. These Headphones have some of the sharpest treble responses I've ever heard and It did hurt - Just avoid! The B&W P3 and P5 suck soo much. I can't believe how disappointed I am with them but fine; if you like Marshall Major Headphones or Beats headphones then maybe :/ The B&W P7 however; wow It's great. The bass was round, warm and felt a little bit undetailed. And actually that's what I feel about my living room speakers aswell. B&W lacks differentiation and subtleties in the bass region. But they sound great with Classical and Rock music not so much modern music. The B&W P9 I tried with Tidal, DAC and headphone amplifier. This is not where I would put my money. They sounded sooo detailed my brain had trouble processing the music when compared to today's lousy KZbin and lossy Spotify formats. Think of It like having three people talk to you at once. That's how the instruments and singer felt. Sooo much clarity!! I also tried Denon AH- GC20 and they sounded as good If not better than the Sennheiser, so I would say this is the only alternative I found! The Denon AH-MM400 was a more expensive version with exotic materials and I didn't like the almost vacuum tight fit of the headphones around my ears, sound quality was very good but didn't justify 100$ more for me.

[@MrTopTechnology]

Thank you for the great review!

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Very welcome.

[@dfg1999]

Thanks for the video. I think this is the one I was looking for: Deep and tight bass. I currently used HDJ2000 and it was sharp and good but bass was somewhat weaker than other headphones like sony and beyerdynamic.

[@gaakbecker]

Nicely done. I love mine!

[@shaolin95]

I am breaking my head here trying to buy a headphone as an upgrade to my Sony MDR-X10. I decided to try the M-100 but want to get one more to make sure I get the best for my ears. I am trying to decide between the Custom One Pro and the Momentum. I like the bass slider of the COP but seeing your review scared me a bit because you said middle way is like the M50 and I tested those and they are pretty anemic in the bass department unless I used the FiiO E17 at full bass and full bass on my phone! I prefer using the E18 and I need nowhere near that for my MDR-X10 to get good bass. I thought about the COP because its sort of getting multiple sound signatures into one. Then you said how much you like the Momentum so now it came to the top of the list too. What do you think? I listen to classical (mostly piano), latin, some rock (not heavy metal), pop, oldies (80s, Elvis) NO DUBSTEP. Thanks!

[@allenunderwood6906]

The Momentum would put a huge smile on your face after reading what you said above. The bass is absolutely phenomenal both in terms of volume and accuracy. Plus the mids and the highs are rich and detailed. Between all the headphones you just listed above, the Momentums are my favorite. As I mentioned in my COP vs M50 video, I prefer the M50's slightly to the COP and I definitely prefer the Momentums to both of those. Granted, the Momentums cost nearly three times as much as the M50's and about $100 more than the COP so it's not really a fair fight, but they are definitely better in most regards.

[@LuisGabrielGerena95]

Allen Underwood Thanks for the reply! I actually ended up ordering both, Momentums and M-100 so I will compare them since I know we all have different tastes but from the looks of it, I can hardly go wrong with either. Great channel!

[@bassiclogic]

I agree with you on your review. I think they are the best value and sounding headphones for the cost.

[@Slel494]

Hi. Great review. I'd be interested getting a comparison with the Marshall monitor. I'm still hesitating between those two.

[@thegloriouspotato6223]

This is an incredible review

[@MOZARTUSS]

Can someone tell me if these premium headphones SIGNIFICANTLY improve the sound even when youre listening to basic mp3's or streaming music from spotify

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

over what??? They sound fantastic on Spotify and quality recorded MP3's...

[@Metallicazor]

depends on the quality of the record. bad records or quality under 128 kb/s will be exposed, and you might not enjoy it anymore

[@dydalswl1]

great review! nice work

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Thanks!

[@MrThemarty915]

Great review!!

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Thanks!

[@brutalpancho]

thanks so much for the helpful review! am thinking about a pair of these 1.0's at the moment. Also, cool dog :)

[@wealllame]

Are there any better new headphones since this review or should i just buy these? Great review dude awesome dog aswell.

[@ragnellsaria]

Nice review thumps up and well since u don't have so many sennheiser reviews would you consider making the hd598

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

That's one of the sets I definitely want to try out in the coming months.

[@atheletico80]

Thanks for the review. These helped.

[@christophebalduck8154]

Hi, your review on these is very positive to say the least. I wonder if the Beyerdynamic T5p are worth 3 times the price compared to the Momentum? Unfortunately, there are no resellers of Beyerdynamic close to my home, otherwise I could go listen to them. Thanks

[@gbl3963]

Hi Allen Enjoyed your positive review. Interested in a set of headphones for home use over a hifi system. Based on the excellent reviews online for sound quality, I keep coming back to these.....but unsure of one thing. All reviews seem to be based on experience using portable electronics , which is the market they were created for. From your experience, would you recommend these for home use over hifi system? Would I get the same balance of sound from lows, mids to highs..........or would the headphones start to show weakness? I listen to jazz, rock, folk, blues..........instruments such as electric / acoustic guitar, cymbals, piano (particularly mid and hi piano tones)etc. Blaine

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Honestly, I would think these would thrive when plugged up to a home hifi system. Really the biggest difference is the home system will have way more power than a portable player. I know I plugged it up to various amps was more than happy with the sound!

[@BusinessPapers]

Great vid. Def most comfortable headphones I have worn. I have the black, this almost makes me wish I had the brown. Of course with digital music files garbage in will equal garbage out, but did you think the momentums highlighted poor quality files or live music in a negative way? More so than other headphones, I mean.

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

I didn't really listen to low quality recordings - probably the worst I tried were streaming and those mostly sounded great. Don't get me wrong, some songs compress worse than others, but mostly they sounded nice. I found these to be the perfect balance between a studio set of headphones and standard every day headphones - they brought out the perfect amount of detail without making everything sound very analytical. But I would agree - if you throw poor recorded material at these, it won't be nearly as enjoyable.

[@MauricioSPN]

Great review, man!

[@MrTaiseiono]

love your reviews !!

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Thank you!

[@IMLEGEND1876]

Off of both of your reviews I bought the these momentums and M50x's!! What is your opinion when comparing these? I would like to know from your standpoint Thanks for your awesome reviews.

[@locoism1025]

I would love to see reviews on the Sennheiser HD8 DJ and HD7 DJ

[@shaned1500]

Hey where've you been I miss you know one does reviews as good as you

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Been busy as heck...I've gotten a lot of things out of the way that I've needed to get done so I should be back with hopefully quite a few reviews back to back!

[@shaned1500]

HeadphoneReviewHQ awesome cant wait

[@dropstepmusic7965]

HeadphoneReviewHQ will you ever do a Review on the beyerdynamic dt 770 ???

[@leiasniri]

Thanks for yet another great review..! There's a lot of buzz now around the NAD HP50 which seems to be in a close price range. Wonder if you has a chance to check them or have any comments on how the two compare. Cheers in advance ..!

[@MsJohnmckenzie]

Great review if you like your mids try the ATH- ES700

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Thanks for the suggestion

[@johnnykawakid]

great review man.

[@DarienSeminoff]

HeadphoneReviewHQ Ok, so.. I want a new pare of REALLY good headphones. I like really fine sound, I like to hear all the notes, and all the instruments. They also need to have a vary good sound stage. I'd also like a well built set, I Don't want something thats going to break after the first time I use them. My price range is under $450 or maybe a bit over if its going to be worth it. I really like what I've herd about the HD650's But are they worth the price? Any suggestions..?

[@Angeldealer]

You need an amp to fully experience any headphone in the hd linup 600hd and up, however I've heard that the hd 598 and hd 700 sound the best out of them all. I have the hd 598 and they are beautiful. Just get these momentums.

[@DarienSeminoff]

Evan Havlicek Yes, I have been looking at the HD series more and I really like the idea of them. I think the 600's are what I'm looking for and I'm pondering ordering them via Amazon. I am definitely planning to buy an amp with them.

[@Angeldealer]

Darien Seminoff Def man. Look at "hifi heaven" review. He did a comparison from the hd 598 to the 1800

[@MrOri68]

Darien Seminoff I own an OLD pair of HD 600s and they're worth every cent..... These things are built to last and everything is replaceable.... Amazing headphones definitely a great buy..... Everything you wanted is there, detailed sound, wide sound stage and they're well built.

[@Amp1tude]

Darien Seminoff if you want to be impressed with some open end hifi headphones that do amazing with the bass control then you should check out the philips fidelio x1 or x2s. also keep in mind for the x1s you will have to replace the cable because its got a high resistance. i have a pair of x1s and i use a fiio e17 amp with them. i am very curious about your opinion of how they compare to the ath m50x, momentums, and even the vmodda lp2

[@jfes6848]

Awesome review

[@theodoro89]

Very nice and complete review. Quick question: I ordered Beyerdynamics DT990 Pro 250ohms for about 145euros. Whats your opinion about the headphones and the price (i haven't gotten them yet)? Also i am thinking of buying audioengine D1 dac/amp. Is this a good product?

[@vihrenkostadino]

How do these compare to the ws55? I know the ATH is like half the price or less but just is the Momentum so much better for the money in terms of sound quality than the Ws55? Very informative and enjoyable reviews by the way!

[@phwoarprozak]

super good review. cheers bud

[@robertantony2980]

Great review mate...

[@thoughtcriminal19xx]

Well, companies should keep sending you products to review because you just sold me on them. I've been up in the air between these and a few other pairs but I'm literally leaving right now to buy a pair. Cheers Alan

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Did you get them?! What do you think?

[@thoughtcriminal19xx]

I did. Short Version: I love them. Long Version:OK, the mids and highs are both exceptinally good, and the bass is merely fantastic. I do find it a tiny bit lacking but I'm a "stickler" and occassionally notice a bit more power could be used, but it's only been when listenng to extremey bass heavy things, namely rap and once during a movie. That being said I do love them. I listen to a wide range of musc from classical to rock to EDM to blues etc.and it's all top notch. I also must have smaller ears, I guess, because they fit perfectly snug (the way I like it) and the adjustable earpieces make them extremely comfortable. That being said after about 4-5 hours I do notice my ears getting uncomfortably warm but I'll take the pure sound quality these offer any day of the week. After buying them I immediately tried to break them, throwing all sorts of eclectic stuff and varying the levels rather extremely and they held up very well through everything. Cheers Sennheiser, you win ths round! (shakes fist) Also, the sound reduction/leakage is good. Even on low volume from my mixing board to amp to computer it drowns out my gf, and on high volume on someone else's head they're not audible a room over. The volume is perfectly adequate. As far as I can tell there's no reduction in quality regardless of volume. Honestly, these are great. If you're exclusiively listening to rap or EDM you'd be slightly better off elsewhere but not by much. If you're looking for a good pair of all around headphones, buy these and if you take care of them they'll last you a long time as the material they're made from is good and they're well put together. Anyways, I know that was long winded but thanks Alan. I'm very happy with them and would absolutely recommend them to anyone on the fence about what to buy and has taken the time to read this far down my comment.

[@Adultguj]

Tell me, is this set better compared to the M100? Planning to upgrade from my beloved ATH M50 headphones. I mainly listen to metal, progressive rock, orchestral and electronic music every now and then. I certainly want bass in my music, but nothing overpowering. So hearing it in its most natural form would be really be my thing. Good detail in vocals and instruments is also requisite.

[@spartanV48]

For your kind of music, momentum are amazing. I own a pair and have tried the m100s and you will definitely notice the sound difference. So go with the sennheiser momentums.

[@mariocomeq1961]

Is this the Momentum 1 ?Nice review.

[@Amp1tude]

how would you compare the sound quality of the lows mids and highs of these momentums against the audio technicas ath m50x or the m50 whichever youve tested

[@wagsbass]

These are amazing headphones

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Fully agree.

[@MarcoXxX92]

Got em & Love em

[@po1Kom]

Hello, I would like to know what you recommend me headphones from Bose QuietComfort 25 and the Sennheiser Momentum over ear please ?

[@realaudioreviews]

Can you please explain why? It can be a short answer. Because I'm looking to buy a nice pair. However I heard many many people complaining about the comfort issues with the momentum.

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Depends on the size of your ears. I really have no way of telling you whether they'll be comfortable - for me, I wore them for hours and were extremely comfortable - but if you have larger ears, they may be nearly unwearable.

[@petercrounch]

Nive review. Loved the fact that you have done the review with the glasses. Was it comfortable? Did you feel the ear pads pushing them against your head?

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

These were pretty comfortable...I could feel the glasses more of a fact that they're new to me so I'm always aware of them, but they were not uncomfortable at all.

[@mindseyelynx9738]

can you please get some HD 681 EVO's and review those? for $50 the sound stage beats ath-ad700 imo, but i just want a professionals opinion

[@diegoepd]

Nice review. Remote works with android devices? or just only with iDevices only? I am a music lover and a ocassional DJ, I don't know to buy this ones or Pioneer HDJ 1500. I know that they are for different type of listening, but I will use the one I'll buy for multiporpouse. Which do you recomend between them? thanks!

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

Man, I wish I could help on the Pioneer decision but I've not listened to them. If I remember correctly the controls did work on my Nexus 5.

[@titienne1937]

Bought these on eBay for $200 .. I hope theyll sound good !

[@jncpapi]

great review bro, do some new review please

[@naveedahmedchaudhry]

I need a one liner on Focal Spirit One vs Sennheiser Momentum, really appreciate it. I own Spirit One, they're great but not comfortable even on my small ear size. I'm planning to get these and get rid of Focal. Thank-you in advance.

[@alexherrera3020]

Which ones do prefer in: Comfort Sound quality Sound isolation and leakage Featres Design Overall SENNHEISER MOMENTUM OR V-MODA CROSSFADE M-100?

Honestly, I was struck between both, I went for the full sized momentums and I was definitely impressed myself. For comfort, I have averaged sized ears and they fit very comfortably with the momentums, m100s are comfortable too but not as comfortable as the momentums since the momentums are so light weight. As far as sound goes, momentums are really smooth sounding, fantastic all rounder headphone but if you are one to listen to mostly bassy music, rap, pop, etc, M-100s are better but if you listen to a large variety, momentums are better. The bass is still very good on the momentums. Momentums seem better for sound isolation and leakage. The build quality of the M-100s is superb so if you need great build quality meaning your headphone will take a massive beating, then M-100s are for you. The momentums do have a very nice premium build quality to it. So overall, if you want a great all rounder that is very comfortable, go for the momentums, if you want a fantastic build quality and emphasis on bass, M-100s are for you. For me personally, the momentums are better.

Comfort - M-100's simply because they'd work better for more people - the Momentums were lighter and just as cozy but if you have ears that are too large, they simply won't work SQ - Momentums - I prefer the warmer sound Isolation - Momentums - the M-100's leak a bit more sound Features - M-100's - about as versatile as it gets Design - I like the M-100's here as they shrink down to a size that will fit in the palm of your hand - extremely portable, etc. However, I prefer the way the Momentums look, but obviously that's personal preference. The M-100's can be customized with plates though which is pretty sweet. Overall - for me I'd get the Momentums. They have a tighter bass and a more engaging midrange and treble. They are incredibly comfortable if they'll fit your ears. I love the M-100's as well - best build quality I've ever seen in a set of headphones and their sound is good, it's just not the flavor I'd usually go for as it's darker. Hope this helps.

I would love to see a review on the Stax SR-009 I am looking into them to buy

[@Iukrative]

Hey dude thanks for the videos they have helped a lot, I think I'm either going to pick up these or the "Audio Technica ATH-M50" - which would you recommend more so? Many thanks!

[@rdaffon23]

Hey Alan! hope things are well. I see you haven't made any videos the last couple years?

[@tuanand]

Thanks for the awesome review(s)! How would you say these compare to the Beyerdynamic COP's? I will be using them primarily with my phone (Moto X) + fiio portable amp.Thanks in advance and keep up the excellent work!

The best set of headphones at this price range? waw. Would you be able to review the AKG k702, that might just change your mind ;)

[@HeadphoneReviewHQ]

I most definitely want to!

[@gcnanda]

Great Review...

[@raymondleggs5508]

You should review the Nakamichi NK2030 which look almost identical to these.

My ears are 65mm top to bottom, would they fit comfortably in these?
