【ZDNet China 产品评测】Sennheiser可以说是耳机领域的专家，其产品线相当丰富，从昂贵的耳塞到高保真的头戴式耳机，都是专业人士和发烧友的最爱。这款HD 515 耳机属于中档产品，售价为109美元（900人民币）。

HD515外表很时尚，虽然看起来有些大，不过重量只有255克，所以佩戴时不会有沉重感。515的耳机隔音垫相当厚大，可以完全把耳朵包裹起来。耳机线长2.74米，配有1/4英寸标准接口以及一个1/8英寸微型接口，用来连接便携设备。扬声器的背面采用开放式设计，所以对于需要保密的听音需求来说，它就不会是首选产品了。

我们利用Halle Berry主演的《鬼影人》（Gothika）测试了这款HD515。整个影片充满了风雨交加的场景，不过我们最喜欢的是精神病院里的照明系统，它会不时地发出嗡嗡的声音。利用HD515可以非常真实的感受到这种效果，有时候甚至让我们产生了错觉，认为声音真的来自我们头顶。

HD 515的音质和森海塞尔的HD 555类似，但在低音方面的响应能力要逊于后者，当然，二者的价格也有一定差距。在CD音质方面，我们使用David Bowie的Ziggy Stardust SACD（Super Audio CD版本），音质明亮而且具有很好的响应能力。因此，从其表现来看，我们推荐采用515来听摇滚乐。

当我们把515接到iPod上，发现音质也相当出色，不过音量无法调到非常大。可见，iPod并不能很好的驱动515工作，同样，其它很多Mp3播放器如果输出功率不足，也会无法让515充分发挥性能。

Sennheiser offers a wide range of headphones, from inexpensive earbuds to full-blown audiophile extravaganzas. Its HD 515 'phones sit in the middle, with a list price of $109.

These contemporary-styled 'phones look a little bulky but weigh just 9 ounces, so their wearabilty is first-rate. The HD 515s feature especially large cushions, a deeply padded headband, and a nine-foot cable that terminates in a 1/4-inch plug (a 1/8-inch minijack adapter is also provided for use with portable devices). They have an open-backed ear-cup design, so they won't be the first choice for private listening.

Gothika, a creepy DVD starring Halle Berry as a psychologist wrongfully locked up in a mental asylum, palpably evoked its scary setting over the HD 515s. This movie is loaded with atmospheric effects, such as thunderstorms and driving rain, but our favorites were the noises from the asylum's faulty light fixtures, which constantly buzzed and rasped, sometimes sounding like they were actually over our heads.

The HD 515s sounded similar to Sennheiser's HD 555 headphones but didn't match the more expensive model's rich bass response. CDs sounded brighter and more immediate, which suited David Bowie's vocals on the Ziggy Stardust SACD. We actually preferred the 515s for rock music because of their edgier, more exciting sound.

Hooked up to our iPod, however, the HD 515s sounded too bright and forward and wouldn't play terribly loud. The iPod didn't seem happy driving the 515s, which means they definitely won't be a good match for other MP3 players, most of which are much less powerful than Apple's trendsetting model.
