Sennheiser Momentum On Ear: a worthy mid-range contender

2013-10-22
hi I'm David Carr Noy and I'm here with the little brother of Sennheiser's excellent momentum headphone that's an over-the-air model while this one is smaller and sits on your ears which is why it's called the momentum on-ear it's got the same premium styling as the momentum in a slick modern retro look that makes it stand out in the crowded headphone market comes in lots of colors - I found the headphone a little tight at first but if you bend the metal headband a bit and loosen things up it helps with the comfort level and I like the microfiber cover on the ear cups I would call these the most comfortable on ear headphones I've tried but with some breaking in most people should be able to wear them for longer listening sessions without a problem what makes them more expensive over the year momentum so good is that it sounds very accurate is highly detailed and has tight base it's a real audiophile headphone for $350 this momentum on-ear doesn't sound as good but it gets you about 80% of the way to the momentum and costs two hundred and thirty dollars it is a lively sound signature with good clarity and powerful bass that outperforms the v-moda on your crossfade and the 80s four digits bass OMPH the momentum on-ear also sounds more open and less kin than the m80 the larger momentum is a warmer and richer sounding headphone it's just as detailed but acoustic instruments and vocals have a more natural full-bodied tone in our text review we compare the honor to a few more headphones so check that out but for this video review suffice to say we like this headphone a lot it may not fully match the larger momentum Sonics but as I said it gets you 80% of the way there and costs 120 dollars less I'm David Carr noise and that's the sennheiser momentum on-ear thanks for watching
