Sennheiser Urbanite Reviews

Evaluation 5
Advantages: Great sound for this price range, and maybe even higher. The sound is balanced, at first it seemed that the bass was abundant, but now I got used to it or they “warmed up”. The truth is in the warm-ups I do not really believe. I bought for 6000 approximately. For the money just a bomb. Very beautiful, bought in color Nation. For this, a few sacrificed functionality. They are on the iphone, and I have Android.
Disadvantages: They are not as convenient as, for example, high-end models. But this is probably a disadvantage of this entire category of overhead. I can not say that they are not comfortable, just covering do not feel at all, and these are putting pressure on the auricle. But as he said, this is more a feature of overhead than a real minus.
Comment: I buy only Sennheiser. Not because I believe that they are the best, but somehow it has become so. In reality, probably all manufacturers of this level are all about the same. Chose among 4 models. Urbanite on and over ear and the same Momentum. The latter is newer, but the sound in the frequencies of the voice seemed to me quieter, i.e. All sound is slightly less balanced. But the main reason why they chose Urbanite is that they look more reliable, thick cables everywhere, while Momentum has thin round cables. But Momentum is much easier, 2 times. Well, the price. Rasbros prices on Urbanite allows you to buy for 6-7K. Momentum is more expensive. The sound on and over ear is almost the same.

Advantages: + Design
+ Folding
+ Headset
Disadvantages: -Sound is good but not great
-Overpriced
-The remote for Iphone does not work under Android (not all functions)
Comment: After almost a year of use I will leave the headphones solid 4.

I chose this model primarily for the design and availability of the headset, while it was expected that the sound would be steep.
The sound is good, clean, the bass is not bad, but I still expected more, it does not catch.
After a year of use you get used to the sound and stop quibbling over the little things. Normal sound.

The model comes either with a universal Iphone / Android remote control, or with a remote control only for Iphone. Did not pay attention to this when buying. Attention, if it is written that the remote for Iphone, for Android, the volume and track switching buttons will not work, only the pause / answer button on the call.

Adjustment to the size of the head is made in a peculiar way: it is “self-adjusting”, it is impossible to fix in one particular position. At first, it strained, but over time you get used to it and do not pay attention.

The main plus is really stylish thing, cool design and they add up. Stacking up really is very convenient. Included is a rag cover, after almost a year of use, the state is “like new”.

If you want a cool sound - look for another model, if you want just good false ears, stylish and folding, then this model suits you.

Advantages: Sound
Design
The brand
Convenience
Compactness
Disadvantages: Could better materials use. Any metal.
Comment: The sound is great. Even from a smartphone wound up - that is necessary. Until recently, he doubted that such tiny closed drivers could sound so natural, balanced and pleasant.Headphones from this company have never disappointed. This is not any MDR for the consumer segment.
oriented.
Don't expect a miracle from them anyway.

Advantages: Workmanship. They can be worn around the neck just as a decoration.

Sound. If you want a brain-bass bass, then this is not your choice, but for lovers of good music is very good. I never thought that there were so many details in my favorite songs =)

Convenience. Although they are overhead, you forget about their presence on the ears

The wire. He is flexible and not afraid of anything (he forgot about the headphones and repeatedly pulled them out of the nest)

Strong. I don't know what to do to break them.
Disadvantages: Ear Pads. They are also of high quality, but over time the material ages and collapses (mine for three years)

Microphone. Anyway, my device messes up, in general you hear me badly in it

And, perhaps, it would be better with a less slippery headband, there is a risk of dropping them when the head is tilted
Comment: Ear pads, of course, replaceable, but at the moment in Russia there are only 3 of them (THREE pieces, Karl, for the whole of Russia !!) and everything in Moscow costs as much as half of the headphones

Versions for Android and iPhone devices are sold, they differ in cable, check the inscription on the box before purchase or check with the seller

Advantages: I listen to dramas on them mostly. Clear sound, pronounced and surround treble, the bass does not jam music. The part adjacent to the ears is made of a soft, silky material, shorter and more comfortable. Flat, thin wire, comfortable to wear under clothes. The inner part of the rim is also soft, rubberized, worn on the head and neck - no discomfort. The buttons on the remote control are located at a decent distance, in short, you will not miss even with my sausages. Microphone.
Disadvantages: Noise isolation is so-so. The inner part of the rim for some reason is light, with time it becomes dirty. For the sport is unlikely to be used, because the inner material of the ears is very absorbent, it will immediately become wet and over time white streaks will appear.
Comment: Previously, I used plugs from iphone 5, and I will not say that the sound quality has increased significantly. I think that most of the price is incorporated in the design + brand. So I advise true music lovers to look at something else.
