Review on 🎧 PHILIPS Over Ear Wired Stereo Headphones for Podcasts, Studio Monitoring and Recording, Computer, Keyboard, and Guitar Headset with 6.3 mm (1/4") Add On Adapter by Shane Wallace

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Wide soundstage, good value for money, questionable durability

This is at least the third Philips headphone that I have bought in the last few years. I have a high end open back model for quality listening to music, a small model with a wireless earbud for cell phone use, a model with headphones that was destroyed a few years ago and is now the SHP2000. Its main use case is playing quietly on our digital piano, and it looks like it'll get the job done just fine. I chose it based on my familiarity with the brand, the low price, and the 1/4" plug that came with it. The first experiences were very satisfactory. Aside from noise-cancelling features, the over-ear cups offer a bit of isolation and that helps. They are very light, which is very important for headache-free use. Maybe I'm being unfair at this price point (just under $20), but I'm hesitant to give these headphones 5 stars because of the quality of the material. When you touch them you can feel that they are cheaply made to order in fact if you are looking for the best quality you can look into the Fidelio line or the SHP9500 model.In any case I will return and give it a full 5 stars if it does Survives years of heavy use with minimal damage.

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Some problems
