Rating: - All I can say is 'WOW'
I bought these headphones based of the recommendations of the 'AnythingButIPOD' web site. These deliver a crisp, full, natural sound. It's a pleasure to use these.
Rating: - Very good value
Found this thru Consumer Reports, rated a best buy, so I bought it as a gift and they are very pleased, folds up compactly, light and easy on the ears. Very good sound, but not great.
Rating: - Terrific sound
I like these headphones except it is not easy to get it back in the case. But the sound is great.
Rating: - Excellent headphones
Simply great headphones. My son loves them. I bought a second pair for my wife. Now I want one... Comfortable, good sound. And over the ears instead of in your ear like buds. Much more comfortable. And a reasonable price. Technically, you can fold them, but we don't do that much. They're always being used.

I was actually looking to replace my broken down Sony V900 cans and was seriously looking at the Senn HD555s. My only concern was reading some reviews about how an ipod was not powerful enough to run them. Turns out they sound fine from the ipod, but that is not the point here. When I went to check out for the 555s these popped up as "often purchased with". I read a few of the hundreds of reviews on them and figured they might be nice for travelling or working out without having to worry about my nice pair (the 555s) getting broken or being to large. I had my reservations about them, but OMG are they nice! The bass in nice and pronounced without being distorted and the atmosphere or soundstage is nice. Treble is very clean without being tinny as well. The sound from these blow away the $99 pair of in ear phones I have from sony and they are way more comfortable. Are they as nice as the 555s? No, but they are dang close for how much they cost, and I would say just as good as my Grado SR60s (talk about uncomfortable). An unbelievable value. Get yourself a pair of these without delay. As for the folding, it is a piece of cake. Had no problem whatsoever.
