Hi Andy.
I'm very sorry, I don't have experience with Sennheiser headphones as I've
always thought their best models or at least models with similar specifications
to the NS1000's to be at least twice the price of the goldring offering. The
Goldring offering is designed for portable applications as in mp3 players and
other portable products, but I cant see why they wouldn't do just as well in a
home environment. I love them, I use them on a daily basis. They pack quite a
punch with deep base response, and have very good mids and highs reproduction.
I'm not an audiophile, in fact I've castigated pairs of headphones that cost
three or four times the price in the past, much to the disappointment of HiFi
store owners *smile*, so for me, it all boils down to preference rather than
price. If you can get a pair on your head and try them, you'll be the best
judge as to whether they're right for you.
All the best and sorry for the ambiguous response but I'd rather be honest than
have you disappointed with your new purchase.
Take care and Merry Christmas.

Hi Ibrahim -
From observing your sales on the recycle-it list, I feel you have quite a bit
of experience with different makes of headphones. I'm interested in these
Goldring rs1000. I want to use them both for music, and TV. I currently use the
Sennheiser 340 I think they are, these are the cordless ones that Tapesense
were selling. Are you familiar with them, if so, can you say how they compare
with the Goldring ones?
I know I'd have to buy an extention cable for the Goldring pair in order to
reach my TV.
Also, do the Goldring ones pack a punch, and have strong high end sound, my
hearing loss is in the top end, so I like to find headphones that offer extra
power and detail in those frequencies.
Be good to hear your thoughts or experience if any.
Thanks -
Andy

Hi.
Yes, I own a set of these, they are over the head design with large padded
ear cups, but very comfortable to wear over long durations. Read the reviews,
check out the specs on both play.com and goldring.co.uk, you can decide for
yourself if they'll do you. Either way, 50 quid is a small investment to make
and if they don't meet the high standards you set yourself, you can always
return them to play for a full refund.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi
#do you have a pair of those earphones? Do they go over the head? Do
you know how big the ear pieces are.
Thanks for any further help.

Hi.
If your not looking to spend a fortune but you want good sound, the
Goldring NS1000 over ear headphones are perfect. They cost £49.99 from
play.com, usually £150 and if you read the reviews, they speak for themselves,
something like 98 percent positive and that's from dozens of reviewers.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Around ear and on ear models.
Pricy, very, but excellent.

Hi all
My USB headphones have just given up the ghost, so I thought I'd
treat myself to some new ones.
I was thinking of buying some noise cancelling earphones. I was
hoping that someone may have a good recommendation for me.
I would prefer the in-ear type. I'm not looking at the cheaper end,
and will pay probably around the £100 for a decent pair.
Are there any in-ear headphones that are wireless?
I use jaws, so would like obviously a quality sound, and also
something that you can crank up with excellent music quality.
thanks for any thoughts.
