The Manufacturer's RRP Philips SH07205 was to my knowledge at about 170. That's why I bought these headphones for a reduced price of 85 (formerly 149) and thought it would be to hear a bargain without trial. The appearance and the reduced price have created the incentive to buy. As I unpacked and heard the headphones at home, however, I was very disappointed. As a sound reference I have a Sony MDR V700, which is so superior, despite his age the Philips SH07205, I even reduced 85 think these headphones for too much. Sonically, these headphones are not recommended, as they play the music very dull and almost no ups. Here even the Sony MDR V55 worlds better, although this is priced far below the Philips settled. Since I also want to write something positive about the Philips SH07205, should also be mentioned that it is nice to look at. However, it should also go for a device that was designed primarily for playing sounds to the sound and not the chic look.
