This is another value for money headphone. Sennheiser,
founded by Dr Fritz Sennheiser back in 1945 is well known for its high quality
headphones. The HD202 is a low-priced quality headphone. The earcups are
smaller than the Shure SRH240A. It also has a padded headband. During my
listening session, I found the HD202 to be a little “tight” on my head.
Secondly, the earcups do not completely cover my ears. I suppose the SRH240A is
more comfortable. The headband is made of plastic and looks fragile. The band
is thinner than the Shure SRH240A. It feels lighter than Shure. The cables are
quite long (3m) but a chord winder is provided. According to the specifications
the cables are OFC(Oxygen-free copper). However, unlike Shure, the 3.5mm jack
is chrome plated.
The bass sounds boomy thereby overwhelming the low
frequency range. Using the same song for this test ie Bruce Hornsby’s End of
the Innocence, the “clicks” on the drums were darker and lacked brilliance.
Bruce’s vocals was full and well reproduced.
Would I buy this headphone? Definitely. However, we are
all aware that any preferences we have will depend on several factors. So, like
everything else, it’s best to try them out yourself before making a decision.
