Editorial note

The Sennheiser HDR 175 stands out for its high-quality audio experience, delivering clear and powerful sound thanks to its sensitivity of 114 dB. The total immersion in music is enhanced by a closed acoustic system that ensures optimal sound isolation, allowing you to fully enjoy your favorite tracks without external disturbances. With a battery life of 18 hours in continuous audio playback, these headphones are perfect for extended listening sessions. However, some aspects could be improved. The weight of 310 g may be considered heavy, which could lead to discomfort during prolonged use. Additionally, while the closed acoustic system is effective for isolation, it may also hinder the natural perception of sound. The lack of an integrated microphone could also disappoint users wishing to make calls or record voice messages. Regarding connectivity, the Sennheiser HDR 175 uses 2.4 GHz wireless technology, which, while convenient, may be subject to interference from other devices, potentially affecting connection quality. Finally, the nickel-metal hybrid (NiMH) battery technology used does not offer the same quick recharge as modern lithium-ion batteries, thus limiting their practicality in daily use. In summary, the Sennheiser HDR 175 is a solid choice for music lovers, offering impressive sound quality and good battery life, but its drawbacks in terms of comfort and connectivity should be considered before purchase.
