- 86AVERAGE CRITIC SCORE12 ReviewsCNET80Sennheiser Momentum review: Luxurious headphones wThe Sennheiser Momentum headphones may not have enough bass to satisfy every taste, but they are in every other way the best-sounding full-size audiophile headphones we've heard in a long time.CNETNot RatedSennheiser Momentum headphones: Plush sound for $3What makes them so nice? Well, for starters they're very light. They're also very comfortable, with real leather memory-foam earpads. I only got a chance to wear them for about 5 minutes, but Sennheiser reps said they're designed to be worn for hours and I believe them.EngadgetNot RatedSennheiser's Momentum headphones are back in blackA lightweight marriage of stainless steel and buttery smooth sheepskin leather, the Momentum Black features a flexible 3.5mm audio jack -- with sexy red accents on the cups, cable and headband stitching -- simple inline audio controls and a built-in microphone for taking phone calls.Wired90Rebirth of CoolYou get all the isolation and comfort of an over-the-ear design with only a fraction of the usual weight and bulk, and you get a clear, rich sound profile that will win over all but the most snobbish audiophiles. Serve that up with a generous helping of handsome, and you’ve got a winner.PC Mag80Sennheiser MomentumA victory of design and audio performance, the Sennheiser Momentum stands out in an increasingly crowded field of luxury headphones.TechHive100Review: Four full-size headphones for affordable aThe Momentum’s sound quality, style, and versatility are so good, even with weak source components, that nearly anyone who can pony up the $350 should be very happy. It would be tough to find a better all-around headphone without spending a lot more.Reviewed.com Headphones50Sennheiser Momentum Black $349.00Dipping their toes in the water of fashionable mobilewear, Sennheiser released the Momentum Black Edition to the public. While it certainly is slick, and it has a mostly good performance, there’s a really bizarre issue in the 3.5kHz range that will make higher notes sound very strange.SlashGearNot RatedSennheiser MOMENTUM Black headphones hands-onThis week the folks at Sennheiser have shown off their next great hero headphones: MOMENTUM Black. This release takes the greatness of the MOMENTUM series and delivers it in what the company calls a “perfect fusion of style and substance”. They certainly sound great.Pocket-Lint90Sennheiser Momentum headphones reviewAll-in-all, we like the Momentums a great deal ...they certainly aren't cheap, so it's a considered purchase. For this money, there's lots of choice, but these are more natural-sounding and well-rounded than a lot of the "fashion headphones" that are designed for a specific type of music, and push the bass much harder.Inner Fidelity90The Very Adult Sennheiser MomentumThe Momentum is simply one of the best balanced headphone offerings I've ever experienced. They're very good looking, very good sounding, have excellent isolation, are easily driven from portable players, and are supremely comfortable. This is an ideal headphone for home, office, and listening on the move.CNET UK90Sennheiser Momentum reviewThe Sennheiser Momentums combine style, strong construction and excellent sound quality. If you're after a pair of headphones for the commute and you value clear, accurate sound, then the Momentums would be a superb choice.Digital Versus100Sennheiser Momentum ReviewSennheiser has revamped its headphones design with the fresh and stylish Momentum. And the good news is that audio quality is first-rate too!Digital Trends90SENNHEISER MOMENTUM ON-EAR REVIEWLike a great band, sometimes a pair of headphones hits all the right notes; and that’s the Momentum.TrustedReviews90Sennheiser Momentum reviewThe Sennheiser Momentum are some of the best headphones money can buy if you need a set to take out on the streets. They’re comfortable, look a good deal swisher than Sennheiser’s other sets and offer sound comparable to that of its best portable cans.IT Pro Portal80Sennheiser Momentum reviewThe Momentum, however, both visually and sonically, is a standout in this group. It's a tad chunky for a pair intended for mobile use, and it's the priciest of the bunch, but it sounds sublime, and so it earns one of our Best Buy awards.
