July 14, 2008Ultrasone HFI-2200 headphones review retrospective
We've just finished sending the Ultrasone HFI-2200 through our rigorous testing process (here's a link to the review). Our verdict? Not bad for a mainstream audience, but too expensive for the audio quality it provides. The audio quality was either average or sub par -- the one exception was a good tracking score -- but we thought the playback sounded overly boomy. The headphones also weren't particularly comfortable. The HFI-2200s do come with an obscenely long cord, which is just shy of 15 feet, so hooking them up to your home theater setup won't be difficult. Overall, not the worst set of headphones we've reviewed, but at $300, we can't say they're a good value.

The Sennheiser CX 680i in-ear headphones are a decent set of lower-mid-range headphones with a remote & mic. They don't have the best quality and they're not quite as rugged as we would've expected from a set of in-ears aimed at the gym crew, but they're a great value at $100. Read full 13-part review
