Get Chitika Premium


No matter what anyone things about Sennheiser the one thing that we all can agree on is this company always seems to produce top notch products. No matter if, it is earphones all the way up to top of the line headphones, this company seems to be able to produce winners and the HD-457 is no different. This set of headphones maybe a small lower cost performer, but do not let those things fool you. Read further and you will discover why this set could be one that you will need to add to your personal collection.

Sound quality has been a staple of Sennheiser headphones and the HD-457 looks like it will continue that tradition as well. These open-air dynamic supraural hi-fi stereo headphones are solid performers. Let us take a real close look at them and see why we say that.

First impressions they say can tell a lot about someone or something and if that is, true than the Sennheiser HD-457 leave a great impression when you first grab them. They have a sleek design and the silver really stands out and makes them look like they actually cost a lot more than they really do. The have plenty of cushion in the ear cups so they will be pain free even after several hours of you rocking out to your favorite tunes. The fit once you put them on is very comfortable and you will like how they fit. Some headphones you have to keep moving them around to get a custom fit, but I seen nothing like that with these.

No matter what anyone tells you Sennheiser has some of the best sounding headphones around and the HD-457 is no different. Bass response is something that these seem to do very well. A lot of times, this is where most companies falter, but not this one. If you’re a bass lover trust me you will have plenty of that. The second thing you will notice is how well these sound at low and mid range levels. Most sets sound good in one or the other, but getting both to sound good is sometimes very tough, but Sennheiser has pulled it off. The other big thing that this company has seemed to perfect be little distortion and this is just another example of that. The sound is clear and very detailed and you will be very surprised at the type of sound that you get from these. The HD-457 is solid performers as far as the music that you will hear from them.

These headphones are designed for the iPod, MP3 player and CD player and laptop computer. You can use them on other applications, but they seem to really excel on those applications the most. They work really well with the iPod and MP3 player the most so I would stick to those. Now do not get me wrong they will work with other electronic devices I just found out that these give you the best sounds coming from them. These are well-constructed headphones and the cord is very long enough so that should be no problem. Sennheiser products are very durable and should last a very long time.

Several things come to mind when we quickly look at the HD-457. One of the first things is that it has a wonderful design with comfort built right in. Many times, you do not find that in a set of headphones, but this one does. Secondly, the sound quality is right up there with anything on the market today. These are perfect for iPod and MP3 users, as they seem to perform best with those electronic devices. The very affordable price is also something that many people really like about these.

All in all, if you are looking for a new set of headphones because yours has died or your ipod or MP3 player sets just do not cut anymore than these are for you. The Sennheiser HD-457 is solid performers at a very good price. You will get a product that will perform month after month and it is backed by a company who knows what they are doing. These are also perfect as an extra set or one that you want for only one application. Most people never know when their headphones are going to die. Why not these just in case and the low price have makes these perfect for that. You definitely cannot go wrong with HD-457, as these are solid performers that will impress you with their sound and performance.

Scosche UBHP Bluetooth Headphones Making Life Easier


For most people the name Scosche may not ring any bells, but it may soon. They have released a set of headphones that has showed great promise and I have heard many good things about them. I decided it was time to find out about them myself. Most of the time a lot of hype surrounds different products so I want to see firsthand if they are as good as advertised. Read further to discover if they are what everyone has said or just an over exaggerated pair of headphones.

The first impression you get from picking the Scosche UBHP Bluetooth headphones up is quality construction. You can tell this company took so time in the design and thought process in making these. Tossing in the Bluetooth technology is another plus with these as well, but do they perform. Let us find out. The first big test is comfort and feel. No one wants to wear a set of headphones that feel bulky or awkward, as it is just no fun. After putting these on my head and wearing these a few hours, I was surprised at the comfort level of these. I did not think they would be very comfortable, but I was wrong on that account. They are not heavy on your head at all they fit very well.

Since these have Bluetooth, technology this means no more wires, which is something I really like. You will not have to worry about pulling the plug out all you have to do is pick out the type of music you want to listen to. You have a range around 30 feet with these, which are very good, and up to 9 hours of playing time before needing to recharge which is very good.  The Bluelife system they use will also give you clean interference-free digital signal as well. It also has a built-in microphone of hands free talking if that is something that you want to do.

One of my biggest worries about these was how the sound quality of a Bluetooth device is will. Well The Scosche UBHP has some pretty impressive sound that comes out. I will be very honest I did not expect much as far as sound quality, but these shocked me. The sounds were great with a beautiful mixture of bass and tones that could be hears clear and consistently through the musical spectrum. I have to give this company credit this set of Bluetooth headphones sound great. One of the things I do like about this set of headphones they are compatible with cell phones, MP3 player or car audio systems.

The Bluetooth technology on these seems to work very well also. I have had some headphones that just do not perform with this type of technology, but this model did a very good job with it. 30 feet range is also a nice touch, but the crystal clear sound is what I really like about these headphones.

Overall many things come to mind when we talk about the Scosche UBHP Bluetooth headphones. One of the first things you will notice is the top-notch construction these have. Many companies try to skimp on that and when they do that is where the problems usually start. These are well made and should last a very long time. For most Bluetooth technology is new to them and this model has that part of it down as well. This technology works real well with these headphones as you will get crystal clear sound up to 30 feet away. As far as sound quality goes these sound very good. I did not expect a lot and got more than I could have asked for. You will like the sound quality on these. With a 9-hour battery life, you will be able to listen to your tunes all day long.

If you are looking to ditch the wires and want something a little different than you normally use than grab the Scosche UBHP Bluetooth headphones. You will get a quality unit that is a solid performer and you will get Bluetooth technology as well. These are perfect for the sports person, gym rat or someone who just wants to ditch the wires and try wireless technology for a while. These are affordable and a solid performer for a set of headphones.  If you are in the market for a new set than I would look no further than these as this unit definitely performed beyond my expectations.
