Sennheiser MM60 iPhone Headset

Nice, decent looks
Mic works well, quite loud and clear
Lightweight, yet sturdy
Bass is boomy sounding, toys with the frequency performance

Sennheiser is a frequent guest in our labs, with so many of their products being covered last year. They keep innovating, got to give them that. Now today we have a special headphone by them, designed and marketed for the iPhone, but of course they can be used with other devices too. It’s called the MM60 iPhone. They also have a model called the MM60 Nokia, which we’re assuming will be similar in performance. So let’s see what these mobile phone oriented headphones are capable of.

Design
A classic supra-aural design, these sit on the pinna of the ear, but don’t engulf them. They are not at all heavy, but not flimsy too, I like the build quality. Though one point has to be made here: by virtue of their design itself, it's not that perfect for a commute, at least not as much as in-ear canalphones would be. The color scheme is black with metallic lead colored frames. The round earpads are covered with regular black foam, something that will tear off after hard use, but that cannot be avoided. 

The headband is slim, and consists of a metallic strip covered outlined by the black body that extends all the way down to the earpieces. The contours on the surfaces, the slick Sennheiser logo on the headband, neat padding on its under side etc. are all factors that make this unit look really good.

The design is foldable, thus easily carryable, plus included is a stout little hard plastic carry case. The cord is modular, with an extension bundled up specially created for use with an iPhone, and contains the  4-poled, 3.5mm stereo plug ideal for Apple’s iPhone (all generations) and iPod. There is a mic to speak during a call and a dedicated call answer switch - all this is incorporated in the extension cord.

The frequency response of the headphones is 15 – 27,000 Hz, Impedance is 32 Ω and Sound pressure level (SPL) is 96 dB.  The omnidirectional mic’s frequency response is 80 – 15,000 Hz, while the Impedance is 2.2 KΩ.

ummm.. i dont' understand why the headset, which looks totally like the PX100 should cost twice as much.

But still Sennheiser has no comparison; Bose and Shure can better take a walk down the park

it's got to be shure all the way. The in-ear headphones are plain awesome and so much better than the much hyped bose.
