Review: These Are $500 Headphones - About 2 years ago I wanted a pair of in-ear headphones with good sound quality. I was getting tired of listening to the AirPods Pros and needed something fatter that could offer more detail & depth. I originally spent $300 on the Sennheiser Momentum 2 and at first I liked them, but could tell no matter how loud I made them, there was still this "hollowed out" sound I couldn't sit with. They sounded good, but it wasn't enough. After researching Sennheiser's website I found their most expensive In-Ear Headphones at the time The IE 80s BT for $500. Built in DAC. Lossless Bluetooth Audio Codecs. I didn't know much about digital audio converters or bluetooth codecs but I knew wired was better, because I used to have the Bose QC15 and going wireless was never the same. These headphones essentially brought the resolution comparable to CD quality. What a leap in Technology! I check desertcart, and it's on sale for $300! The same price as the Momentums! Perfect! The sound quality was exactly what I was looking for. I have the Nuraphones, I have the Sennhieser 6xx from Massdrop, I have a pair of Yamaha HS5 studio monitors. Sony wh-1000xm2, Bose Quietcomfort 15 & 20 and late IE2 Bose in-ear headphones. I have Skullcandy ink'd, AirPods and AirPods pro. When I want full immersion for my listening, the IE 80s BT are my go to every time. These headphones will change the way you listen to music, and are well worth the compromises. I compromise on form factor and battery life for high fidelity audio. Using the comply tips they fit snuggly in the ear, and so comfortable I easily forget about them. The loop around the ear so they stay in, sometimes it can get annoying with glasses or wearing a mask around my ears, but again worth the slight inconvenience. Watching movies are incredible... You get so much detail the sound brings you into the scene. You can put them at full volume and literally feel the kick drum and snare hits beating against your eardrum. The sound stage is impeccable... after 2 years of using these headphones they still manage to exceed my expectations. The sound is remarkable and they do not disappoint. There are hiccups with the product... I prefer to have an uninterrupted listening experience but occasionally the headphones will say "headphones disconnected" then immediately resume. I know the bluetooth codecs are transmitting a lot of data, but it doesn't need to waste its breath to tell me it skipped like a vinyl record. Another slight annoyance is sometimes upon powering on the connection says it's there but the music doesn't play, so then I have to hold the power button so it goes into pairing as restarts....because the pairing button is the power button. I appreciate the onboard volume control. They are soft and click, and they move the volume in half steps so you can find the perfect volume to fill your ears. Theres also a little beep when you reach the highest volume so you know the limit. I wish there was a way to turn off that functionality but it's easy to live with. The manual base adjustment is great... just set it to the middle... too much bass can cause ear fatigue and cloud the music, and too little isn't enough. I lost my bass adjustment key so it's staying there :D They also come in handy for phone calls or discord when I'm cross platform gaming with friends, because I can wear the gaming headset over one ear and still talk through the mic around the neck loop. I recommend these headphones to any friend that appreciates listening to music, I even buy it for family & friends as birthday presents because this purchase has brought the simple pleasure of good listening back to it's ideal state. in my life, and they were $300 at the time.
Review: Great sound quality, but some shortcomings. - I wanted cordless hi fidelity earbuds, but had some budget limitations. These met my needs expectations to a degree. When they are used with the cordless neckband, they are only OK. They simply don't generate the volume I was looking for and the battery life is only so-so. And the neck band isn't as liberating as having fully wireless, independent ear buds. HOWEVER, they are convertible for use with a cord. While this eliminates the cordless feature, it also eliminates the battery life issue. More importantly, the sound is superb and plays notably louder. Bottom line: get 'em for the sound quality, but get the connection cord so you can utilize them both ways.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these authentic Sennheiser even from a third party?**
A: That's a difficult, essentially impossible, question to answer accurately. I highly doubt there is anyone or any group that has verified the authenticity of the product from every third party seller. Furthermore, any such answer or report would be a snapshot in time — new third party sellers could appear, unscrupulous third party sellers could change and start selling counterfeit products after the report, some third party sellers might be selling a mixture of authentic & counterfeit products (possibly without malice and without knowledge of that fact) and whoever is doing the verification would randomly get one or the other and the report would only be partially accurate, meaning the verification wouldn't be a guarantee that any given order would get what was reported.

The best thing to do is to buy from authorized dealers & retailers. If you're buying from a third party here on Amazon, then it's upon you to do the research to verify that seller's reputation and whether or not Sennheiser (or the manufacturer of other products) has authorized them to sell their products.

**Q: can these be used while wearing glasses?**
A: No.  These are very uncomfortable if you wear glasses.  Besides, I have moved away from Sennheiser products.  They are very lousy in providing firmware updates.  Their products do not work with Windows 11 due to firmware incompatibilities.  Their Technical Support told me to downgrade to Windows 10 (a very lousy answer.)

**Q: Does it have dedicated mute button?**
A: The Sennheiser IE 80S BT does have a mute function. 
To mute the headphones during a call, press the multi-function button for 2 seconds. The microphone will be muted and you will hear a voice prompt “Mute On”
To continue the call and reactivate the microphone press the multi-function again until you hear the voice prompt “Mute Off”

**Q: Is this uc (unified communications) capable?**
A: This is clearly a playback-focused setup. While it allows simultaneous pairing to two devices, I don't think it is UC-certified.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing set of behind the neck headphones
*by A***G on June 11, 2022*

Lets start by addressing the critical reviews. Those people are being waayyyyy to picky about this product. First this product is 3 years old at this point and you are getting an insane discount for this kind of sound quality. This is supposed to give you amazing sound quality with the convenience of a neckband with controls and bluetooth connection. Thats exactly what it does while delivering some of the best sound quality i have heard from any audio source. (Granted ive never tried the real high end stuff but these compare to the mid/high end stuff i have tried) sure the battery life isnt amazing but it gets me through my workday and then i can recharge for an hour and they are ready by the time i leave for school at night. If you have a portable charger and you juice up on breaks youd easily last the whole workday with nonstop listening. If your wanting to charge as little as possible then you should look at something else. I work in a fabrication shop and have very loud grinders/welders/saws running all the time. My previous headphones struggled to get loud enough to overcome the noise. These headphones come with ear sealing tips so they create awesome sound isolation from everything. I can have the loudest equipment running and if i have a good seal on my eartips then i can only hear my music/podcast. If you work in any kind of loud environment and want good isolation from that then these do amazing. Just want to clarify these do not have "sound canceling". They have "sound isolation" which in my opinion is wayyyyy better for my purpose. My ears dont like sound canceling and it makes my head feel off. These creat such a good seal that i feel like im in my own world of music. Im rabling now so bottom line is these are amazing headphones. They are for the person who values the listening experience a lot while needing bluetooth and good sound isolation.
