Sennheiser bring pro sound to the street I've used Sennheiser radio mics professionally for some time in my video business. They're superb and well priced. So are these excellent headphones. Lovely sound and you can hear ambient noise around you at the same time. Makes it safer out on the street. But the best thing is the comfort and sound quality. For around £15. Bargain! And if you have ears like mine ordinary earplug headphones are uncomfortable and fall out frequently. I like my Sennheisers. And I'm told, reliably, that they... more info
Not half bad! A couple of bad reviews for this product. I'm not going to add to them. One above seem to be missing the point somewhat in comparing the Sennheiser OMX 52's to band-based headphones.

What an excellent pair of speakers; crisp, clear bass, high response. They just sound great. And then you stop pushing the headphones close to your ear and wonder if the lead has fallen out. It's almost silent, the design of these headphones is so inept as to render them useless, especially when outside where any noise is sufficient as to drown out your music. Not advised, go for the... more info
