+ The feel and the materials used are also very good. Although a lot of plastic but the price is reasonable quality. I especially like the high shells made of textile, which are very soft and certainly robust in everyday use.
The adjusting rail aluminum works with value and looks very good.
+ The sound is balanced. The bass are present and dry certainly loud enough and pleasant. The mids and highs are particularly transparent, airy and light superficial. In particular, this is very pleasant at Klas Sure music. Overall, these headphones sound very clear, detailed and finely structured. it is simply a pleasure to rediscover the instrument stage.
I always had a direct comparison with the devil Aureol real I have alternately used for evaluation. The sound of the devil knows very well liked and is similar to the Philips SHP 9500 highly, but with a little more bass and slightly higher volume than the Philips.
The difference is in my opinion only marginally. However, a major advantage of the Philips is the far better comfort.
The pressing force of the devil at the top is much higher and was uncomfortable after a short time. Furthermore, the adjusting rail of the devil leaves bad adjustment and will remain not locked properly. At Philips, these disadvantages are not an issue.
Conclusion: the Philips headphones will remain and the devil Aureol real returns.
A better compliment you can not !! make the Philips.
Incidentally both headphones with open architecture are thus these are mainly for domestic use and not for the outside because the music of seated next to people is actually very well perceived clearly and is bothersome. However, this is a constructive feature of all headphones which have an open design. Both the Philips as well as the devil are fairly comparable. On the positive side is that the musicality is much more transparent and airy with an open design. It is also no coincidence that almost all have all the high-priced best rated earphones an open design.
Is the only drawback that the Philips only a 3 m long cable hat.Dieser but comfortable with a 3.5 mm jack and a disconnectable and thus can only austauschbar.Ich also to recommend a shorter cord of 1.5 m for mobile devices in addition to use. then the features of this headset is perfect.
The volume on the phone or tablet is more than aureichend.
How could it be the Philips is highly recommended and very inexpensive to also on Amazon. An absolute clear recommendation and 5 stars for this value.
