Sennheiser is a name that is synonymous with audiophile products. They have been viewed as a premium, top-tier (dare we say "The" top-tier?) brand since the beginning of time. Laboratorium Wennebostel's time that is. In 1945, Prof. Dr. Fritz Sennheiser founded Laboratorium Wennebostel's, or "Lab W" in a pleasant half-timbered house. Fritz Sennheiser was born with a gift. When he was 11 years old, he saw an early radio that inspired him to build a crystal radio. Again, he was 11 years old. There was no turning back from that day. The following year after founding "Lab W", Sennheiser produced his microphone. From that point on, it was one success story after the other. Sennheiser's technology continued to improve, and "The Bar" continued to rise. In the mid 60's, Sennheiser released the HD 414, the world's first "Open Headphones". That very day changed the future of headphones forever. That very same headphone, the HD 414, not only helped establish Sennheiser as a leading headphone manufacturer, but it sold over 10 million units. It is the best selling headphone of all time, and Sennheiser had just gotten started.

Great Investment
This is a great buy for anyone looking for high performance headphones under $100. The HD518 offers great sound stage and with superb detail and emphasis. The only downside is that the 6.8 to 3.5 converter is quite big and the aesthetics of the headphone may not be for everyone.

I like these headphones. They are conformable to wear for hours. Even though I am not a audiophile, I appreciate the sound quality of these headphones. As my music tastes range for classical to hard rock, the headphones take it in stride without any problems.

The HD 518's have a nice low end. Full and rich; but not too much. IMHO, the highs are an 8 out of 10. The mids are just a little lacking for my personal taste; But that is right out of the box. They will probably get even better when they finish breaking in. In short, for the price, they are a real bargain. I am an audiophile, with VERY high standards. Most anyone will LOVE these for the money.
