 Great sound - same as the MX-500, but without volume control March 10, 2005
102 out of 104 found this review helpful
I just got a couple of these for my two daughters. They have the same sound as the MX-500. Considering that the cord is only 3 ft. long, and just about anything you hook it up to is likely to have a volume control, a volume control on the cord is pretty redundant.
In fact, the other day, I had the MX-500s plugged in for a long time, and then forgot that there was a volume switch in the cord. As the day wore on, I couldn't quite figure why the sound volume was dropping. It was only later that I realized that the volume switch had accidentally gotten bumped down.
So save a buck or two and get the MX-400 instead of the MX-500s.
I've already reviewed the MX-500 earbuds - I'll just repeat a few points about the MX-400, since these are the same earbuds: If you are a Sennheiser fan, these earbuds have that classic Sennheiser sound - a rich, ringing clarity in the mids and highs, and no excessive bass boost. Like all non-sealing earbuds, the bass is variable and gets louder the more tightly the earbuds are coupled against the earholes. How tightly you get them to fit depends on your ear anatomy really.
As for getting them to stay in place, I discovered that the best way was to wear them upside down and loop the wires around the back of my ears and under my chin.
An alternative way to wear these earplugs, much more discrete, but also a bit less secure, is to loop the wires over the ears and around the back of your neck, like sunglass straps. A small paper clip to the back of your collar will hold the wires in place and you can run the cord around inside your shirt.
Sound is Extraordinary! September 24, 2004

These in-ear headphones have really impressed me, having been introduced to these type of headphones with the set that came with my Apple Ipod. The Sennheiser ear-buds give a very rich, satisfying sound that I find better than that of the Apple ear buds, especially in terms of a full bass sound -- nothing at all tinny with these. They are not only more comfortable that the set that comes with the Ipod, but not nearly as likely to get tangled up, a major hassle with the Apple model. This definitely is a good set of headphones to own -- I now use them fulltime with my Ipod, keeping the Apple set as a spare.
Excellent In-ear headphones March 3, 2001

These in-ear headphones are excellent. They're not quite as stylish as Bang and Olufsen's but I think the sound quality is as good and they also appear to handle bass a lot better at high output. The price is also a LOT more attractive than B&O's. I would recommend these to anyone that want to use in-ear headphones with portable equipment. They're great.
Fairly nice September 9, 2006

The sound is pretty good for small in-ear headphones as these, certainly better than other brands I've tried, and the price is good too. The only slight irritation is that the foams fall off quite easily.
Sennheiser MX400 vs Sony MDR-E828LP March 13, 2005
7 out of 9 found this review helpful
Comfort: The Sennheiser MX400 earbuds are perfectly circular in shape thus seemingly fitting better inside your ear. While the Sony MDR-E828 are also circular but slightly tapered which initially fits inside your ear, but after extensive listening they cause your ear to ache due to the tapered edge. Thus the Sennheiser MX400 wins in comfort for long-term listening.
Sound Quality: The Sennheiser MX400 has a neutral refined sound with fair bass response and smooth treble. The Sony MDR-E828 has a brighter sound with slightly higher bass output and high treble. Generally fans of rock, dance and rap music will prefer the Sony MDR-E828. The Sennheiser MX400 can handle those genres, but not sound as "pumped up" with the Sony MDR-E828. Sound quality is a matter of personal choice, so you decide who wins.
Features: Both offer the same features: same cord length and winding cases.
Overall this is a tough decision, but if I had to declare a winner I would say the Sony MDR-E828 wins as it is almost $5 cheaper than the Sennheiser MX400.
