Superlux HD-681 Evo WH

Jeg har nu haft 2 par af disse høretelefoner. Har aldrig klaget over lyden, og altid været vild med hvor dejlige de er at have på.

Men at tabe dem, bare det mindste fald kan ødelægge lyden. Har haft tabt dem (første gang) fra bordet og ned på en madras, som resulterede i at bassen røg i dem. Det andet par blev jeg nød til at få erstattet ledningen 2 gange. Har stadig det andet par, og det kræver at jeg lige drejer ledningen et par gange. Alt andet er helt fantastisk :)


Midjan.

What can I say? They're a sub-?30 pair of Superlux headphones.

Having tried the old HD-681s which were an amazing pair for the price, I can say that the Evos are that and bucket-loads more!

I was pleasantly surprised upon opening the packaging to find two cables; a short one, perfect for use with a portable device and a longer one, perfect for use with, well, anything that's a little further away. The headphones themselves have a male 3.5mm jack on a short cable extending from the left ear cup. This allows you to replace the cable with any after-market cable should you so desire. As both cables are female on one end, they can be combined to create what is possibly the longest cable I've ever seen on a pair of headphones out of the box!
Also included is a small clip which helps ensure that the attached cable does not come lose, but use without it was not an issue in the slightest.
A 1.4 inch jack is thrown in for good measure along with a second pair of pads made form a soft, breathable fabric which is extremely comfortable and is great for longer wearing sessions.

If you've owned or read/watched/heard reviews of the old 681s, you'll have heard many say that they had quite sharp and fatiguing treble. A common fix was to place a cotton pad in the ear-cup to act as a sort of filter. This has be addressed in the Evos and adds even more to their great sound. I primarily use these for light gaming at times when I'm not at liberty to use my surround setup and as such, the semi-open build lends itself quite well to my needs.
The sound-stage is excellent without sacrificing isolation and without having to fork out a few hundred euros for a much higher end pair of cans. On top of that, the detail throughout the spectrum is great, with clean highs, warm and 'full' sounding mids and deep, mud-free bass.

Overall, these headphones are hands-down the best pair I've yet to use in this price range and are a must have if you're looking for a great value pair to add to your collection, or maybe to start it!

These may not be the best headphones money can buy, but for this price I would struggle to find anything even remotely comparable. When I bought them they were 65 EUR, and they sounded like a pair of 120 EUR+ headphones.

I see nowadays the price is about half of what it used to be, so they just became an even better value pair. If you want good sound, but are strapped for cash, I heavily recommend picking a pair of these up.
