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.

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!

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!
