| 4 of 5 people found the following review helpful By This review is from: Ultrasone PRO 550 S-Logic Surround Sound Professional Headphones (Electronics) These headphones should fit right in between the $100 and $200 range. At the time they were introduced they sold for about $230.These headphones support spacial cuing in the form of specially placed Mylar cones behind a metal barrier that also serves as a electromagnetic field barrier.

But, the Pro 550...It's the start of the next level in audio quality and re-production. It's hard in a market where the consumer can't find a store that let's you demo, or onsite stores...Make sure to read the RETURN POLICIES for ALL the companies you are interested in. I have only had to pay for return shipping. These are the headphones I intend to keep for a long time.For $25 more on Amazon...get these if your serious about sound!!! |
