Before we started working on mariposaHD, I spent about two weeks researching the absolute best bang/buck headphones to use for our sound/video editing. I surfed all the audio geek websites for their top recommendations. These Sennheisers seemed like their top pick when it came to the bang/buck category.

I am pleased to report that these headphones have totally lived up to their high expectations. They rock. These Sennheisers have become an integral part of our mariposaHD editing operation and I would recommend them to anyone looking for the most bang for their buck.
