Sennheiser HD360 pro headphones.
Music played through these medium weight on-ear headphones is a little overly bright on the treble end of the sound spectrum, and may need the use of tone controls or an equalizer to cut it down a bit and avoid a headache from long term use. Think of fingernails on a blackboard. The overall frequency response is definitely not flat. Otherwise, the sound is clear, with plenty of detail. I think these headphones are excellent at low listening levels, but would definitely need a way to cut the treble at higher listening levels. I would give the sound a rating of four stars, as it is not flat enough for higher listening levels on a computer, where tone controls may not be available. The construction quality also rates four stars, as the headband could be wider to distribute the weight better, and the cord, while plenty long at ten feet, one inch, is rather flimsy at only 3/32 inch thick, and it is not a user replaceable plug-in. The design rates four stars as well. The earcups swivel both horizontally and vertically, and even fold inwards for storage in the included storage bag, along with the 6.3mm adapter plug. The leatherette on-ear pads are ok for short term use, but they are too thin, and the clamping pressure may require bending of the ends of the headband outward to make the headphones comfortable for long-term use, and the flimsy non-replaceable cord does not seem to be either designed or destined for a lifetime of heavy use, meaning these headphones are straying into the territory of the disposables. Comfort rates four stars, as the ear pads become sweaty with use, and the headband could be wider to support the weight on the top of your head. If you bend the metal headband to adjust it for clamping comfort, only bend the ends near the ear cups, and do not flatten the very top of the headband, as that would transfer the weight to a single point on the top of your head and become painful over time. Why can’t the headphone companies make ear cups large enough to fit your ears into, so that the clamping pressure is against your head, and not your ears? Years ago, headphone ear cups were larger, like the ear cups on ear protectors, but for some reason, headphone ear cups have shrunk in size over the years. New designs are not always better designs. Overall, we get a total score of 16 stars out of a possible 20 stars, or 80% (B-), and an overall rating of four stars. Are they worth buying? Yes, but at a price point you are not getting long term value for your money. These were overpriced headphones being sold for .95. This is another set of headphones headed for storage, at least until I can find a way to make them more usable. Please, do not blame the messenger. I always tell it like it is, the bad along with the good. These product reviews are only a hobby, and I do not have a vested interest in either the products or their promotion.

The vendor has the PX 360 photographed, but these are the HD 360 headphones. They are an offshoot, leftover parts build from Sennheiser using the speakers from the fantastic HD380 and the more comfortable (to me) housing of the PX360.

Very good sound reproduction along the full range. They have a comfortable volume range as well, but they don’t get so loud as to deafen you. The padded cushions make the set comfortable enough to wear all day, but your ears may get a bit warm like they would with any closed wall pair. The rotating joints and hinges make the set comfortable to wear on a single ear as well. The pads also do a good job of canceling outside noises.

I originally bought a pair at Best Buy on clearance and my wife kept taking them so I was looking to buy a second set. Because they were an offshoot build, the HD360 was a low production run and they are sold out or overpriced in many places. Current price of this listing is and they are among the best quality-for-dollar headphone purchases I’ve found, better than many sets at two or three times the price.

Got these a few days ago and have been trying them out. They arrived nicely packaged and undamaged. The package contained the headphones, the adapter jack, carry pouch, and the standard paperwork items.

I had read about them fitting tight on some peoples heads and that had me worried as I have a moderately big head but the headphones fit fine and my head does not feel squeezed. The ear pads are very soft, I would almost say they feel ‘butter soft’, the over-head part feels sturdy and adjusts solidly without any slippage at this point. The cord is crazy long which I love just because I’m so sick of short cables that are never quite long enough.

As far as sound goes, the highs and mids are very clear but to be honest I hear very little bass in these but what bass I am hearing is clear and undistorted. Overall, the sound is sharp and clear and I dont need a ton of bass anyway. They fold up nicely and the carrying pouch is decent enough but not ‘amazing’.

They are lightweight and at this price I doubt you could find anything near as good.
