Superlux HD681 3.5mm Jack Cable Headphones Super Bass

The HD-681 headphones from Superlux combine premium-quality audio components with an ergonomic design to offer accurate and detailed sound in a lightweight and comfortable package. Ideal for long, fatigue-free listening sessions, they are intended for use by musicians and audio professionals in monitoring applications, including recording live instruments and vocals, mixing, and more. The HD-681 features around-the-ear earcups which provide sound isolation from outside noise and help eliminate "headphone bleed" when recording in the studio. The semi-open design delivers a natural sound while still offering deep bass response and minimal sound leakage. Two 50mm neodymium drivers provide a rich, balanced sound with high resolution, wide dynamic range, and excellent stereo imaging. The headphones are equipped with a self-adjusting headband and thick around-ear cushions, providing the listener with a great fit. The HD-681 comes with a protective storage pouch and a gold-plated 1/4" adapter.

Superlux HD681 have a clear, precise and well-balanced sound. Its AFR/AFC has imposed on the 2nd photo.
It has a deep and rich bass. At the sound picture HD681 gives the feeling of being on stage with the musicians.
Ergonomic ear cushions, combined with a light and a self-adjusting rim make HD681 very comfortable.
Don't hangs on the ears, so your ears do not hurt and it's great to keeps on your head.
As for me - they are the best that you can buy for the money.
In conjunction with Creative Soundblaster-Z, with disabled all additional options - sound simply breathtaking !!! I am delighted!, because for 20 usd - even close to such an unexpected.
Treble clear and without ringing in the ears. Bass hasn't pressed and the middle too normal. Stereo-wide not narrowed and sounds quite widely.
These headphones are good value for money justified at least at few times!

For safe transportation - preferably cardboard box... :)

Apparently, the design of the Superlux HD681 is pretty much after AKG K240 or AKG501 (that I own). It's not full closed, but more like between semi-open and closed headphones. They fit over your ears. The weight is also very light (212g which is comparable with my AKG 501, 274g, though). The fit is a little snug, and the earpads are not soft, and therefore you'll see many people suggest customers replace them with better ones in order to increase the comfort.

Pros:
1. The sound resolution is good. The highs are acceptable, but not as crispy as my AKG K501 apparently. The mids are smooth. The bass is there, and not too boomy.
2. Very affordable price. The headphones have been highly acclaimed for the quality/price for around 10 years.
3. Very easy to drive, even with smartphones.

Suggestion

1. Fit can be improved better.
2. The high (from 5k to 10kHz) can be a little too sharp to some people.

Overall:
Compared with my another, at similar price range, pair of headphones, Monoprice 108323, Superlux HD681 has more resolution, wider stage, and not too boomy bass (which I don't like). it's almost impossible to beat HD681 at this price range. And therefore I do recommend it to everyone.

+++++ Sound quality
You don't expect quality sound for 25$ but quality is there. 50 drivers produce sound that well balanced. Good meaty bass where it should be.
+ Over-ear design. Fits goods. One size fits all.
+ Lightweight
+ Long and thick cable
- Open style headphones. cons if you listening in noisy environment.

Price / performance is astonishing. If you compare to "brand" headphones it should cost 150$ at least.
This headphones are rare find. You get much more for you buck that you actually paying.
Comparing to Meizu HD50 they have similar sound quality. HD50 have 'closed' design and therefore more bass , but superlux have more detailed and 'rich' sound overall.

Suggestion

- Looks and feels ugly.
Build qulity is ok but you won't get a premium feeling. Overall plastic is decent but nothing extra.
- Packaging. Box will be better.

Отличные наушники за свою цену. Звук чистый, басов достаточно, средние и высокие частоты тоже на должном уровне. Короче говоря, звук очень хороший. На голове сидят плотно, но не давят. Кабель длинный, прорезиненный. В комплекте переходник на 6.3 и простенький мешочек для переноски наушников. Недостатков за такую цену нет!

On his head sat tight, but do not press. Long, rubberized cable. Includes adapter for 6.3 and a simple bag for carrying headphones. The drawbacks of such a price is not!

Premetto che sono le mie prime cuffie da ascolto e che faccio questa recensione dopo 10 giorni di test. Appena mi arrivano le collego al telefono (xiaomi mi note con un dac niente male), la cuffia suona abbastanza bene ma è basso il volume. Arriva dopo 2 giorni il DAC (sound blaster e5). dopo averle rodate e equalizzate posso dire che queste cuffie sono davvero soddisfacenti tenendo conto che qua le ho pagate solo 19 euro. Certo i limiti si fanno sentire in certe situazioni. Però bisogna tenere conto che alcune cuffie da 100 euro non suonano neanche così meglio di queste. Le trovo solo un po' scomode da tenere in testa, per il resto sarebbero perfette.

Prezzo
Aperte (pro per l'audio)
Molto versatili
Gestibili dal telefono senza troppe pretese
Come seconde cuffie sono il top

Suggestion

Cavo lungo, non adatto per l'ascolto in mobilità
Custodia assente (danno un sacchetto praticamente inutile)
Cuffie grandi per portarle a presso
Limiti inevitabili dato il prezzo
Padiglioni un po scomodi
Stringono un pochetto
Estetica che a me non piace molto
La qualità costruttiva non è al top ma tutto sommato va bene
Aperte (danno fastidio a chi sta intorno)

I gave 5 stars to the product because it is the note he deserves for sure, before arriving I expected a lot of the product and when I arrived I had a surprise, it was better than I expected.
The audio quality of the product is insane, the material that is built is of quality and came in very well packaged. Cost benefit is the name that this phone should receive, its quality compared to its price is worth. Compared to other more expensive models does not lose anything, on the contrary only wins.
I will recommend this product to all my friends

Suggestion

The only counter that this product can recber is in regards to its comfort, could be a little softer the earpads

For the price they're sold at, these are VERY good headphones. They are very light, being built mostly in plastic, yet they don't feel like your cliche chinese product. Cord in great, thick, very long and resistant. Beware tho, if you plan on using them with your phone, you'll have to take of any sort of protective cover you have: the 3,5mm minijack is hidden under the classic jack, which had to be unscrewed, leaving the minijack with a male-screw-part (you get what I mean) that makes it impossible to use with a cover.
Sound is amazing (for a 24$ headset), volume is great, bass could be better but for the price you couldn't ask any better.
On the other hand, packaging wasn't great, just a plastic bag, closed with some tape.
Overall, amazing deal

- Bom preço junto com qualidade;
- Possibilita ouvir e localizar sons como passos, tiros ou outros dentro de jogos com nitidez;
- Aparente resistência da estrutura do fone, não acredito que vá quebrar facilmente;
- Gostoso para ouvir música, com som contagiante;
- Dá sensação de imersão em filmes, séries, animes, etc;
- Volume alto;
- Cabo longo, firme e espesso, também aparentando certa resistência;
- Vem com um saco para guardar;
- Ligeiro abafamento do som externo.

Suggestion

- Depois de um tempo de uso (4h aprox.) dói o topo da cabeça, o que pode ser resolvido com pausas;
- Esquenta um pouco a região das orelhas, o que interfere mais em dias quentes;
- Tempo de chegada aproximadamente 3 meses( relativamente normal pra compras aqui);
OBS: régua na imagem tem 30 cm.

-Super comfortable
-Excellent sound quality and clear neutral audio presentation
-Big soundstage due to Open Air design
-Good construction for the price
-INCREDIBLE value for any home studio owner and mixing gear need.

This headphones are simply amazing for the price, especially if you need a pair for mixing or recording. Anyway, they are enough musical for enjoying by themself and at 32 Ohm are quite easy to drive (sound even better with good amping tough). Highly recommended!!

Suggestion

NO.
Only thing I can find is that it do not have box and can be risky to receive it by the post without protection (my experience turn well with Gearbest)
