Sennheisr hd518 review

sperkowsky

               So I needed new headphones and I had a tight budget. There were a lot of options but the sennheiser 518 really sparked my interest.

I went on ebay and got a slight deal saved 10 dollars. Ive tested them with pretty much every style of music and didnt see them work better in some

genres, They were just good at every genre equaly. Im no audiophile but I do know what good sound is and these produce very good sound.

 

The cons

they clamp on your head

you can hear everything around you (expected with open style headphones)

huge cable adaptor

 

But obviously not too many cons

 

soooo buy them!

Quick question; how do you afford everything that you have? Considering barely any places hire 14 year olds. The lens you had on the table looks like a 24-70mm L glass lens which is easily $2k. Not to mention what ever is already on the camera and the camera body itself.

lmao the 24-70mm is fake it's a mug actually (guess it looks pretty real)

I use a nikon d3100

With a 35mm f1.8 lens

I get all the money from working as a gymnastics coach can't beat 15 dollars an hour off the books

Compared to other youtubers out there of your age, your pretty good. I'm considering the 518, but it's hard to choose when there are tons of headphones in this price range. By the way, did you buy everything on your desk? Cause you have a pretty high end set up.

Wickedly surprised at the quality of this particular review. I just have one gripe, and its fairly petty. The audio was brilliant until the office shots started. Perhaps a nice area mic for shooting those scenes, or just a solid bump in the audio levels could help.

I did actually buy everything on my desk besides my 26 inch tv which is 720p and I got for christmas when I was 11 but yeah I earn my money through building pcs for people, selling things on ebay, and working as a gymnastics coach
