Much has happened since the first Momentum at Sennheiser.
Suddenly the design played an equally important role as the sound of products.
The first Momentum was a huge success. Similar to the time of the HD25 has the momentum quickly headphones, which was associated with the brand. Why this success will continue to persist, you may like to read here.
My ratings done in school grades for ease of understanding.
Was tested on an iPhone 5s - still the sound scale in smartphones without equalizer, AAC tracks at 256 or 320 / kbs.
The test is carried out exclusively from the point of view, to operate these headphones to a smartphone.
1. Processing: Very good
The first Momentum was perfectly finished, this model it is.
More need not actually write this. The only thing you could criticize is that no longer is the remote control on the cable now made of aluminum, but the momentum is now collapsible. Decide for yourself what weighs heavier.
2. Comfort: Very good
The momentum is very easy to get soft leather upholstery and an excellent adaptability of the listener's head.
It is very positive, which has now become the 2nd Genration by larger mussels a real Over Ear listeners, thereby he sits much more convenient, too big but he is not affected. The Momentum is one of these headphones, which you almost forget when listening to music.
3. Sound: Very good
To make a determination already anticipated: Yes, it is better than its predecessor.
The change is indeed only low but clearly audible. The bass is now more specific, the resolution is - and you have to really say - excellent. A Sennheiser is always tuned some height emphasizes this transparency can also be reached. Here, however, each track has a real foundation and high dimensionality. The bass is never "Booming". Voting is an outstanding success, a really great facelift.
The Momentum 2.0 is certainly the best that you can run on an iPhone.
In addition a high efficacy (against old Sennheiser models).
The momentum is easy to operate the iPhone 5s and reached an above-average volume.
4. Price / performance: Good
With 319, - it is more expensive than it was the previous model. 299, - would be a angmessenerer price. However, we regret a penny of this headset. Conclusion: Highly recommended. Sennheiser has taken his time to renew the model and this time has really paid off.
