    Talking Sennheiser HD212Pro

    I got them, and had a chance to test them a little.

    Using my Audigy 2: WOW! I was amazed. The bass is so awesome, I've never heard headphones with such good and clear bass response. The highs and mids are to amazing as well, and the bass doesn't take over them. They are just as clear and crisp.
    I played Rap, R&B, Rock, Alternative, Heavy Metal, and basically a little of everything. It was just getting better and better.
    I did notice the difference between 128kb and 320kb MP3s.
    I played OGG encoded music though, using Foobar... ohhh it was good.

    CD player: well less quality, but still rocks!

    They are really comfortable as well. I had them on for 3 hours and didn't even notice them.
    The cord is very long and can get annoying, but it's a plus for most people.

    I give them a 9.5/10.

    Ya the cord is pretty long and sometimes finds its way under my chair rollers but a small price to pay~ it's nice to be able to walk around my room with em on.

    Sennheiser HD212Pro

    Has anyone had any luck with wireless RF headphones? I'm looking at the Sennheiser RSseries. Thanks

    I love my 212s too!!!

    Pretty damn good for DVDs and such.

    I think the extra cord length is nice. I can walk all around the kitchen fine with exception of the microwave and a couple of cupboards, which I have to take them off to use.

    What did you pay for yours Ig?

    I know, but for right now I have to live with money orders, and that would take forever, and I wanted the option of easy returning/exchanging... So yeah.. I'll order my Senn. MX 500 from Newegg.com
