Sennheiser HD535 Headphones with DSP-360 Surround Processor description Sennheiser has long been known for their top-of-the-line headphones, and the HD-535 model upholds this reputation with excellent design, sonic quality, and comfort. Throw in the bonus digital signal processor unit, the DSP 360, and we can add value-consciousness to the list of Sennheiser praises. Although slightly stiff, the cushioned, closed earpieces are comfortable and ventilated. Ventilated earpieces make these headphones great for home use as they grant the ability to hear loud sounds like a telephone, fire detector, or the doorbell. The cushioned headband is adjustable and provides the right amount of tension for listening in comfort for long periods of time. In fact, you'll want to keep these headphones on for as long as possible! The clarity of the guitar and the tight but full bass presence is what we would expect from a good pair of headphones, and the Sennheiser HD-535 unit doesn't disappoint. Essentially a Dolby Digital Decoder, the DSP 360 unit is a must for anyone who enjoys experiencing a movie rather than merely watching one. This easy-to-install system is ideal for a parent or roommate who needs the privacy of headphones, while taking full advantage of the surround-effect processing. With the DSP engaged, the low end becomes full and solid and a helicopter's rhythmic swooshing will surround you instead of merely passing over you. While watching a DVD, we were transported to a movie theater and the encompassing, thick texture theater sound can provide. However, while the DSP processing is impressive, much of the openness and spaciousness of sound is lost in the translation. In stereo, gunshots and ambient sounds, such as street noise or the echo of a voice in an underground garage, fill a natural space. This space seems to narrow with the addition of the processing, while at the same time adding three-dimensionality and low-end boost. The effect of this processing unit is a novelty best suited for one. We recommend using the DSP unit with headphones only; the processing is virtually ineffective when heard through a pair of speakers. Overall, the Sennheiser headphones/DSP system is a combination of good-quality headphones with an impressive surround sound unit that will thoroughly engage you. We recommend heading over to your nearest video rental place or picking out your favorite movies from your own collection before settling in with this system--you won't want to waste any time once the movie marathon begins!
