Summary: Some Good, Some Bad
Comment: First off, let me say that I like the sound that comes out of these earphones. I was looking for a lightweight and comfortable set of fairly high fidelity headphones for my iPod, and these fit the bill nicely. Compared to my workout headphones, these things sound absolutely beautiful with a nice rich sound, especially for vocals. The bass is fairly lightweight, but I find it balanced as opposed to the overpowering thump that often accompanies headphones these days.
Basically, I would certainly consider buying these headphones again -- if they hadn't broken on me within six months.
It turns out there is a reason that headphone makers are creating plugs that take an immediate right angle on the plug. That seems to be the weak spot on headphones, and that right angle turn helps keep the wire from breaking right at that point. These headphones do not have that right angle turn, and of course, the wire in mine broke.
Since I only use this set of headphones while sitting at my computer, I must say that I am fairly disapointed they broke under such ideal use conditions.

Summary: Sennheiser PX 200
Comment: Great sound from a light-weight, comfortable headphone with a wide frequency range. These are more comfortable than earbuds and also result in less fatigue than wearing heavier headphones with wider frequency response. Especially effective reproduction at low volumes. I am glad I purchased.

Summary: AWESOME HEADPHONES, BURDENSOME STORAGE
Comment: I purchased the Sennheiser PX200 headphones to use with my iPod, and I specifically wanted the "closed" variety so I wouldn't bother others with my music. Having portable, foldeable, closed ear headphones was exactly what I needed, and this model provided all of those things.
The sound quality is outstanding, and the "closed ear" feature works flawlessly. I can not hear others talking and background noises, and they can not hear the music I'm listening to, even at high volume.
The headphones come with a plastic case, and the phones themself fold to fit. This is a great idea, but the problem is, you have to fold the phones just right, get just the right angle, and figure out the exact way to wind the wire around the lid. Only then will the headphones fit in the case. The old cliche, "It's not rocket science," does not apply here. Getting these headphones in the case correctly IS rocket science!
Great headphones, but Sennheiser really needs to come up with a better portability scheme.

Summary: Best all-round portable option
Comment: I've had some good, even great portable headphones: PX 100, AKG K26, Shure E5c. But for walking around NYC, these are the best.
- They sound detailed and full. At first, comparing them to the K26, I thought for sure the K26 was better. But after living with them both for a few days, the K26 sounded unnaturally boomy and murky. The PX 200, when seated properly, has plenty of bass punch if you like your sound accurate. After several hours of play, the PX 200 no longer sounded harsh.
- They offer a nice balance of convenience and noise control. For a long while the E5c were my out-and-about phones of choice - they're marvelous at sealing out the world - but sometimes (like when crossing the street) they seal out a bit too much for safety or convenience, and taking them off temporarily isn't convenient either - they don't hang round your neck securely, and then you have these dangly bits with earwax rubbing on your clothes :) The PX200 is definitely better than the PX100 in sealing out sound. K26 - they seal better, but the springy headband is very tight and tends to change size too easily--it often becomes a "choker" around your neck.
- They look good (in my opinion) because they're retro like a Walkman headphone but not big like some circumaural job.
My advice: order these from Amazon, plug them into your stereo and "burn in" for say, 24-48 hours before listening, and experiment with locations on your ears(I've found pushing them a bit towards the back of my ear, even to where the rear of the cup extends over the rear of my ear, gives me the best seal, in contrast to advice on Headroom that suggests wearing them forward). Return them if you can't get decent bass--but with a little experimentation, I bet you'll be able to.
