Sennheiser IE 200 Wired Audiophile Stereo Earphones - Corded In-Ear Buds with High Fidelity Superior Clear Sound, True-to-Life Voicing and an Impactful Bass - Black

Product Information

On orchestral tracks, like the opening scene from John Adams’ The Gospel According to the Other Mary, the earphones deliver a crisp, bright presentation with a rich (but subtle) lower-frequency emphasis.

Sennheiser, with the IE 200, aims to bring a high-resolution audio experience to audiophiles and casual listeners alike. S Baby, Double Kick drums at the beginning of the first track I am listening to how fast it hits how solid is the bass and what's the decay like. If you’re looking for convenience with the likes of noise-cancellation and transparency mode, wireless is better. Even still, it's unfortunate that none of the eartips availed with the IEM were able to securely seal. What can’t be bought cheaply is a first-party replacement audio cable if you manage to lose or damage the original.The Bluetooth module is slightly clunky on the IE 100 PRO Wireless, but it works with SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX Low Latency Bluetooth codecs. The 7mm extra-wideband True Response transducer, for instance, exhibits virtually no harmonic distortion at all. They are one of the most respected brands and in the past years, Sennheiser has presented the audio world with its IE series of in-ear monitors. For the person looking to listen to their music with a relatively subdued frequency response, the Sennheiser IE 200 presents as a viable alternative to much larger studio cans. And as I've said in all of my evaluations, the same is true for this one: all of the concepts I've expressed below are entirely my own, original ideas that haven't been influenced by anyone else.

This is showcased in the Irish-made transducers of German design using an advanced process to minimise the unit-to-unit variation of the miniature dynamic drivers. Alternately, for the analytical listeners out there invested in getting a set of IEMs, the Etymotic ER2SE may please with the right EQ.The Sennheiser IE 200 are dearer than many options, including the brand’s CX 100 and CX 300S, but these aren’t headphones aimed at your casual listener. Because our engineers spent considerable effort to eliminate the peaks and troughs that can otherwise swallow up or overshadow a particular note. He sings with a mix of South African styles sometimes in English sometimes mixed like in this track and includes the traditional drumming styles of the Korekore.

Together with the cable, the ie200 includes two different types of eartips: foam and silicone, which come in small, medium, and large sizes. Sporting an ear-hook design, the material used is flexible so it can be moulded to the back of your ear for a secure fit. Built with utilitarian plastic housings, it’s not a luxurious legacy product, but rather a purpose-built set of IEMs for everyday applications. However, they aren’t convincing all-rounders, and just fall short of the transparency and entertainment of the more affordable, class-leading competition at this level. That is a figure which would no doubt be considered just as ludicrous an amount to spend on earbuds today as it would have back then.The IE 200 cable has a memory wire so that you can easily pop the earbud in and wrap the cable over your ear to secure it in place. This leaves you with a pretty nice sounding high mids and treble response that largely follows our headphone preference curve, except with a little less ear gain from 3-4kHz. Kind of funny , I normally use in a portable set up first but because the IE200 only comes with a Single Ended - Non balanced option and my sources and cables were very limited. The sound signature is almost similar to the IE 600 with a little less sub bass, upper mid-range and treble extension.
