What Experts Says About Sennheiser IE 80 In-Ear Noise Reducing Wired Earphone

pcmag.com

We tested the IE 80 S with the bass levels at various settings. At the lowest bass setting, the earphones still have more low frequency depth than typical flat response pairs, but the bass is clear and well balanced with the rest of the frequency range. On tracks with intense sub-bass content, like The Knife's "Silent Shout," the earphones deliver a hearty subwoofer-style thump that manages to not overpower the mix and never distorts even at high, unwise listening levels.The Sennheiser IE 80 S earphones offer audio performance in line with their lofty price, and a number of attractive features, like adjustable bass and a detachable cable. But adjusting the bass can be frustrating, the included cable lacks a remote, and we wish the ear hooks were permanently built into the earpieces. So they earn high marks for audio and features, but we have less enthusiasm for the overall design. In this price range and lower, there are several excellent-sounding earphones worth your attention.
