Sennheiser HD201 used mainly when editing music on the PC as the PC speakers wont tell you if there is any 60/120 Hz hum present. They were must useful in editing the Mozart Requiem tape we have where Florence was singing the soprano part. I had not realized how much low frequency noise was on that tape.

My sister has a pair of those. Excellent sound for a $40 headphone. If that's the tip of the iceberg for Senn sound, I might decide to upgrade to Senns after all.

(I recently had to repair the cord. She walked away from her computer with them on her head one too many times.)

I was quite surprised at the sound quality for the price. I had previously extracted all the music from the tape and thought that I had cleaned them up. PC speakers went west so I bought a pair that happens to have a headphone jack. I was looking for something else and happened to hear one of the segments with the cans - ouch!

Well Cool2000 has some nice filtering setups so first I ran all 14 sections through a 60/120 notch filter. After that I used the reverb feature to add some open church ambience as the whole tape was only voice quality and it was made on a small portable cassette machine of not exactly concert hall quality.
