Superlux HD668B Headphones

first i have to explain a few things . i have many many years of experience in digital audio gaming pc and dj experience .in a nutshell im a headophile .so heres the review . for the money these headphones are a one single wired headset with phenominal drivers .the accuracy of the sound is in the high to medium range .to counteract this set your audio to flat ,yes the sound to flat .the sound equalises out after about one minute of tweaking .why a 5 star rating ?you cant buy a new product with this quality for less .i have tested all the ranges and found it to be good in all hertz .capable of distinguishing all sounds in all the ranges needed for the common use.the comparison is the AKG priced at 5 to 10 times more worldwide .these are not a copy but a semi open model unlike the semi open AKG they are less expensive and do the same thing .the weight is lighter and an unexpected surprise .there are certainly issues in finishing lsuch as they dont look perfectly formed (for the perfectionist .or do not have the softer ear cup that one can easily buy for a few pounds "in china delivered in a week ?"so with information like this in hand i personally like them the ear pressure is light and the ear cups completely surrounds medium sized ears .the top headrest not going all round the head simply relieves top pressure and furthermore makes them more comfortable .when fitting these they had 2 3.5mm jack cord 1 metre and 3 metre which simply attatched to the outside connector .in compare . for the money you are not going to get a nice fitting comfy headsets like this and wear it for long periods withoutactually hurting your exterior head ,however these are loud when you want them to be .i tried around 100 songs today from country to speedcore and yes they work .these are not cheap made they are low on price for quality you lucky people .so even if you buy and try you will not be disapointed for the money spent on them .happy listening and get the comfy cups too the make such a diference .the bass ? well here is a tip which will void the warranty but i highly suggest it remove the inner foam and replace with a simple template of toilet tissue for even better BASS. in my opinion a must for this particular model of headphones . and easily and super inexpensive to replace .to sum it up then ? brilliant the cord is thick not thin rubbish and an effective driver set making these a bargain for the money asked .so go get them and enjoy something a little different .enjoy .....

First of all, these are great headphones for a budget, or if you want to find out the hype behind "audiophile" equipment like I did then this is a good gateway. These headphones by no means are real audiophile equipment, or particularly amazing at anything. They have a V-shaped sound signature which means they excel at music with highs in, but music which keeps in the mids is really not that great. They have a good amount of bass for open back headphones and at the volume I usually listen at they do not leak too much, though these are not headphones you should be wearing outside really. Overall I would say the sound is quite good after burning them in, when you consider the price, they are cheap but hit above their price really, just if you really want some good headphones be prepared to spend much more.Their build quality, to say the least, is bad. While I have no gripes with the nearly all plastic build, as they have not broken after almost a year of use, they are mostly plastic and their feel is just cheap. A lot of people replace the earpads that come too because the pleather material is not very good but I have not had as much issue with sweating or clammyness so it just depends on the person. They clamp quite hard depending on your head size but I have not had issue since day 1 using these, though the head rest 'wings' still are not exactly the most comfortable things in the world and I would recommend that you bend them back.They have a removeable cable which is a big plus if you are worried about a pet chewing through them, I didn't really factor this when buying them as I won't break it with abuse from bringing them out (I only use IEM's outside, and wouldn't wear these in public) but it's nice that you can do this as even on very high end equipment you don't always find it. I use these mainly for just listening to stuff on my computer which mainly centers around gaming, music and videos. They work fine for this and are good enough for that, because they're open back sound positioning in games is very good so I can recommend them for that, they work much better than most much more expensive "Gaming" headphones when paired with an external microphone.(Note: I never ran these through a proper DAC or AMP, I do not know how well these benefit from them but I doubt too much difference)In conclusion, I can definitely recommend these headphones, they have a nice V shaped sound which meets my music preferences and don't lose too much detail. In gaming they are ideal when paired with a cheap microphone as a budget solution versus a gaming headset. Get these if you want a decent sounding pair of cans with plenty of mods available, if you aren't on a budget look elsewhere at other real audiophile grade gear, you won't regret it when you hear the difference.

My last pair of bluetooth headphones (Edifier W820 NB) broke and wanted to try wired headphones again. If you are absolutely sick of wasting money on expensive Bluetooth nonsense with batteries built to die, definitely consider these.The clamping force is decent - comfortable, but won't fall of your head.The pass-through and soundbleed are fine - not recommended for wearing around loud traffic, but fine in busy streets.Plasticky and cheap feeling, but feel quite robust, wouldn't use them as a weapon though.But that's all window dressing, the real review is in the sound - it's good! Fine enough for the price, that reputation is well earned. However, you can make them even better with a custom sound profile on your device of choice. See the picture on this review, bump up the sub-bass / bass a bit, lower the high tones a touch and you'll find yourself with sound that's on par with some £100-200 headphones (I almost cant hear the difference between these and HD600s)!Do yourself a favour though, get replacement ear pads - the pads that come with the headphones are stiff, rubbery, squeaky and generally crap. If you value soundstageing get bigger pads than come with the headphones. Consider getting a headband pad too, since the headband can and will 'boing' when walking, which is loud and annoying. The packed in aux cables are nice and highly appreciated too - loud as hell, though.Top job, Superlux. Very impressive for the price.
