I cant believe that play got them at this price! I just got mine and can confirm that they are the HD25-1 MK2 edition complete with velour ear pads! Sound amazing. Always wanted a pair of these but £180 was a bit steep. £109 is a great price for one of...

Sennheiser Adidas HD 25-1-II review

By Libby Plummer (pocket-lint.com)

We've seen several audio manufacturers joining forces with fashion brands and celebrities to come up some cool headphones, like Philips's O'Neill tangle-free cans and the Monster Beats collaboration with Dr Dre. For its latest release, Sennheiser has...

Cool design, excellent audio, rotatable earcup, keeps noise out

Not comfortable for long periods of time, pricey

Not the most comfortable headphones around, but the excellent audio quality and a slick design help are definite plus points

The Adidas Originals HD 25-1-II headphones are closed back cans that are intended for pro DJs, but they could also be used to add a touch of style to your commute by teaming them with your iPod or PMP. The headphones bear the telltale Adidas...

Sennheiser HD 25-1-II by Adidas Originals review

By David Court (pcadvisor.co.uk)

The main reason that these two heavyweight brands have teamed up, is to create a set of headphones that combine 'sound and style' for the DJ market

The Sennheiser HD 25-1-11 by Originals are a hugely impressive set of headphones, with brilliant sound quality and the looks to boot. If you're serious about audio quality then you will love these. Similarly if you're serious about your DJ-ing then you...

Sennheiser HD 25-1-II Adidas Originals review

By Luke Westaway (cnet.co.uk)

The Sennheiser HD 25-1-II Adidas Originals are heinous in every respect besides sound quality. A £200 set of headphones shouldn't feel so cheap and uncomfortable.

Great sound quality

Awful build quality ; Uncomfortable ; Far too expensive

The Sennheiser HD 25-1-II Adidas Originals headphones offer great sound quality, but are heinous in every other respect. As such, we can't recommend them. If you can stretch to an extra £50, you'll be able to afford the shockingly beautiful and...

If you can't afford those, check out the bass-heavy Monster Beats by Dr Dre Solos instead. They're available for around £150.

Sennheiser HD 25-1-II

By Chris Thomas (headphoneinfo.com)

The Sennheiser HD 25-1-IIs ($359.95 MSRP) are an entry-level pair of “DJ style headphones” which are better suited for “not things that a DJ might do with a mixing board.” Despite their decent audio quality, they have some problems with distortion and...

Decent, but very expensive for what you get.

Still, if you’re looking for on-ears that ooze style, it’s hard to argue with the HD 25-1-IIs. Comparisons Jump to a quick comparison of the Sennheiser HD 25-1-II with these other headphones...

Sennheiser HD 25-1-II Headphones

By Jammer (onheadphones.com)

Award: Staff Recommended

Not the cheapest on the block but you do get what you pay for.

Nice spectrum. A very good mix of everything

Out of the box this item did take a little to get used to but we warmed up after a week of use. I have a small head compared to most males. The smallest setting fit me but if you have a larger then normal head they should still fit but you may have...

Sennheiser HD 25-1

By Mike (headfonia.com)

Sennheiser's HD25-1 is perhaps a one of a kind headphone, with no other manufacturer offering anything similar to what the HD25-1 has.

NO GOOD: Small soundstage.

Overall, a pain in the butt to use

The best feature about these headphones is that it's very lightweight and the material its made of, including the cord, appears to be indestructible.
