Customer Reviews For Sennheiser HMEC450 ANR Headset: Write a review

Wednesday, May 07, 2008 Great shape, great body by David from Haifa, Israel  Review: Nice looking headset, great sound, light and easy to handle. Friday, February 15, 2008 Worth buying by PIERRE from REDMOND WA USA  Pros: very efficient ANR, possibility to disconnect when convenient, practical fixing device for the battery case Cons: In training/circuit flying: ANR attenuates good "listening" of the engine Review: Met all expectations Saturday, October 27, 2007 Excellent by A Customer from Gainesville FL USA  Pros: comfortable fit, great sound Cons: couldn't find any yet Review: This headset is exactly what I was looking for! It fits very comfortable even after hours of wearing. The sound is very good without any statics. The position of the microphone can be easily and very well adjusted. Sunday, August 26, 2007 It works. by A Customer from Asheville, NC  Pros: It works. Comfortable. Cons: Bulky and cumbersome battery pack. Review: I'm glad I got this headset. It's comfortable. The automatic noise reduction works. The battery pack is a little bulky and cumbersome, with no good place to put it while in use, and it makes it a little harder to neatly store in my flight bag. But in the big picture that's a relatively insignificant complaint. Tuesday, January 09, 2007 by A Customer from Michigan  Pros: Flawless quality and comfort, 10 yr warranty, Very quiet, Typical Sennheiser sound quality Cons: Only average battery life, bulky battery pack Review: Matches or surpasses the Bose in every way(except battery life), for nearly half the price. Made in Germany. Very comfortable. Great bargain compared to the Bose. 10 yr warranty!
