Sennheiser Street Line MX 55 Consumer Headphones Review

Finally I found some great headphones that can withstand the bass of upbeat dance music AND most importantly stay in my ears comfortably! The Sennheiser MX55VC/MX55 Basswind Stereo headphones are an inexpensive way to get a good fit and quite acceptable sound. The only drawback as far as I can tell is the lack of volume; I like my music real loud and unfortunately even-though they have their own volume control, I can't quite get them as loud as I'd like.

I have small ears and for the first time I actually found a pair of headphones that lets ME choose the size of the ear-buds. Not only that, it comes with a nub that you secure into the upper part of your ear and it holds them snug in your ear without any pain!

The headphones can play bass in a way I find satisfactory. I can hear it and that is what matters most. However, the volume level in it's entirety is far to quiet for my liking. I like my music LOUD! I do like the extra volume control on the wire; it provides a quick way to turn it down all the way if someone starts talking to me.

The wire itself is a tad to short and also it is short on the right ear-bud and long on the left ear-bud. I would prefer it to be even on both sides.

All in all I just want to say that I love these headphones and I definitely recommend buying a pair.
