I wanted an open-back style of headphone so I could hear the room while I was wearing them, and for the wider soundstage that you just don't get with closed-back headphones. I've had a fair selection of different headphones, including most of the popular ones; the Audio Technica M50x's, Sennheiser HD280's, my Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro's, Sennheiser HD598's, and Grado SR80's. All of those are decent headphones, and are good in their own ways, but they each have their issues, too. The M50x's wore out fast. The HD280's had ear cups that flaked apart and felt cheap, and were hot to wear. The DT770 Pro's sound good, but have cheap plastic clips holding the sliders together that don't hold up to long-term use, and you really have to always use a headphone amp with them. The Grado's are what I'd consider the best sound quality-wise, but they're kind of uncomfortable. These headphones (the X2HR's) do their best to alleviate the problems those other headsets have, and they manage to sound the best of the bunch while doing it. The ear cups have a plastic ring, but it's never under any stress so it's not going to be a breaking point over time. The cable is replaceable, so that isn't an issue like it can be with nearly all of the other headsets I listed. The headband on the X2HR's self-adjusts, so it isn't flexing a stress point that will become an issue after a lot of use; it's also really comfortable, and doesn't require any fiddling with it to make it fit right. The ear cups are a soft but firm foam that's also pretty comfortable; they'll likely wear over time about the same as the velour cups on the Beyerdynamic's, and they pick up cat hair pretty badly, but since they don't get hot to wear and the fit of the headphones is so easy you don't adjust them constantly, either. The good: Build quality is solid, and they're built to last. Extremely comfortable and don't require adjustments to get them to fit right. The sound quality is exactly what I would want from this kind of headphones, and is better than other notable headsets I own at a similar price point. Very good at 3D sound representation for gaming. Cons: The X2HR's are a bit heavy, but they don't feel like it when you're wearing them and I've found them to be comfortable for long periods of time. Build quality is solid, but without a hardshell carrying case I'd probably leave them home before putting them in a suitcase for a trip. Overall: Without getting into stuff like "scintillating mids" or "boomy bass" that's all pretty subjective anyway, for me these are the best sounding headphones I've owned. They give the comfort of Sennheiser sets with the sound quality of Grado's, somehow finding the best of both worlds. If you're not overly concerned with buzzwords and hitting that audiophile-perfect neutral that only appeals to music mixing, or the bone shaking bass that gaming headset makers think everyone wants, these are the way to go. Other notes: They do leak a bit of sound, which is expected of any open-ear headset. Not a con, but something to be aware of. I tested the spatial sound on a PC using a Soundblaster X4, with its 7.1 mixing and with Dolby Atmos for Headphones, and both ways were way more impressive than they sounded on my DT770's. I'd strongly recommend using your favorite EQ with them rather than running without, especially if you're using a sound source that doesn't provide one...I tried them on a Fiio E10k, and without an EQ it sounded a bit flat. I used Equalizer APO, and it made a pretty big difference. Bottom line, these are big winners in both sound quality and comfort. Very, very happy with them. Review: These sound amazing. - Okay, I need to preface this review by saying up front that I returned these headphones because they didn't fit me. I have a tall head, and the suspension mechanism kept pulling the headphones up enough that they got uncomfortable after a while. However, it's important to note my star rating: I'm returning these, but they still got five stars. That's how impressed I was with their sound and build quality. They sound really, really good, with clear highs that aren't overbearing, present mids, and solid bottom end that will not let you ignore it, but won't rattle your teeth, either. I'm not an audiophile, but I was quite pleased with how much better balanced their sound was than any other consumer headphone I've tried. The sound I got out of these was detailed, nuanced, and quite pleasing. I didn't listen to a lot of really complex music to see if they'd just turn into a wall of sound when there was too much thrown at them, however. When talking about their sound quality it's important to note that these are open-back headphones. They do *not* isolate or noise cancel. They're not supposed to. They're supposed to allow noise out to create a more open and broad sound stage, giving them more of a natural sense of presence. It's an experience much closer to listening to a good stereo system than using closed back headphones, which seal your ears in little chambers and blast them directly with sound. That has it's place, like if you're listening to music in public or in a loud environment, but it doesn't give a natural and open-air feel like open-back headphones do. If you're looking for more of a natural sound but don't want to piss off your neighbors, open back headphones are a solid option. If your partner is asleep in bed next to you and you want to watch a movie, you definitely want closed back headphones. One advantage to open-back headphones is that the larger sound stage gives you a better sense of position from audio when gaming. That's one of the main reason I gave these a try, and I was quite pleased with the results. It feels a lot more like you're there, or using a good 5.1 system, than when using closed headphones. Their build quality is impressive. These headphones feels very solid, but also refined and polished. I was really surprised by that. The only part I can tell is made of plastic is the cups of the headphones themselves. The band and frame that attaches to the cups are metal. Even the support band that rests across the top of your head is made up of metal bands inside a pad. That's not gonna wear out any time soon. For the sake of comparison, the Sennheiser PC38X headset I replaced these with is made up almost entirely of plastic. It feels incredibly cheap by comparison. However, it fits my head. The cable is also quite nice. It's braided and long. The braiding feels both flexible and strong, reinforcing the cable without making it overly stiff. The connectors are slim enough that I can't imagine anyone having trouble getting them past a cell phone case. The only real knock I have for these headphones is that the included pads pick up everything they touch. Dust, cat hair, anything. However, they're soft and plush, and quite comfortable for long wear. Just know that if you've got a pet you'll end up cleaning hair off them pretty regularly. ## Features - Hi-res Audio Certified with extended response frequencies - Engineered double layered ear-shells with pre-tilted speaker plates - 50 mm high definition neodymium drivers with LMC diaphragm - Acoustic open-back architecture - Replaceable deluxe memory foam ear-pads with breathable velour finishing - Lightweight self-adjustable hammock with 3D mesh and genuine leather outer headband - 3.5mm detachable oxygen-free cable (3m) 3 5 mm to 6 3 mm adapter and cable management clip included - Connector Type: 3. 5Mm Stereo; 1/4-Inch ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01N5VHLUG | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Antenna Location | Professional Studio Monitor Headphones | | Audio Driver Type | Dynamic Driver | | Best Sellers Rank | #17,391 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #528 in Over-Ear Headphones | | Brand | Philips | | Brand Name | Philips | | Built-In Media | Adaptor plug: 3.5 - 6.3 mm adapter, Cable, Cable management: Cable clip | | Cable Features | Detachable, Retractable | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Music Production Equipment, Laptops, Desktops, Gaming Consoles, Tablets, Telephones, Smart Speakers, Televisions, Car Audio Systems, Cellphones | | Connectivity Technology | Wired | | Control Method | Touch | | Control Type | Media Control | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 8,375 Reviews | | Ear Placement | On Ear | | Earpiece Shape | around-the-ear | | Enclosure Material | Aluminum, Leather, Metal | | External Testing Certification | NΓ£o aplicΓ‘vel | | Form Factor | Over Ear | | Frequency Range | 5 - 40,000 Hz | | Headphone Folding Features | Over Ear | | Headphone Jack | 3.5 mm Jack | | Headphones Ear Placement | On Ear | | Impedance | 30 Ohms | | Is Autographed | No | | Item Type Name | Headphone | | Item Weight | 13.4 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Philips Audio | | Model Name | Fidelio | | Model Number | X2HR/00 | | Noise Control | Sound Isolation | | Number of Items | 1 | | Style Name | X2HR Over Ear Headphone | | Theme | Music | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | One Year Manufacturer Warranty | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | Wireless Technology | Bluetooth | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Philips - **Color:** Black - **Ear Placement:** On Ear - **Form Factor:** Over Ear - **Impedance:** 30 Ohms ## Images ![Philips Fidelio X2HR Over The Ear Open Back Wired Headphone 50mm Drivers- Black Professional Studio Monitor Headphones with Detachable Cable - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51JL0AFHjfL.jpg) ![Philips Fidelio X2HR Over The Ear Open Back Wired Headphone 50mm Drivers- Black Professional Studio Monitor Headphones with Detachable Cable - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81TamgYmRiL.jpg) ![Philips Fidelio X2HR Over The Ear Open Back Wired Headphone 50mm Drivers- Black Professional Studio Monitor Headphones with Detachable Cable - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61A9kVB1zcL.jpg) ![Philips Fidelio X2HR Over The Ear Open Back Wired Headphone 50mm Drivers- Black Professional Studio Monitor Headphones with Detachable Cable - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51mu-jkgR6L.jpg) ![Philips Fidelio X2HR Over The Ear Open Back Wired Headphone 50mm Drivers- Black Professional Studio Monitor Headphones with Detachable Cable - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51MxeRbJdjL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I have heard that Phillips has been acquired by Gibson and quality control has suffered. Any truth to that** A: I heard the same thing so I guess it's true. One issue apparantly has to do with the ear pads being glued on. Some pairs have glue while others do not. The pair I received had no defects at all and the pads were not glued on. They have a tight fit but they are removable. **Q: What is the specification for the microphone?** A: While it does not include a microphone it can easily be paired with something like the VMODA Boom Pro. **Q: how do these compare to the beyerdynamic Dt 990 pro?** A: Both are excellent headphones. The Dt 990 pros will have more treble extension. They both have good bass. The X2's are a little smoother. The Dt pros more energetic. The X2's are very nicely built, well constructed, more aesthetic than the sturdy and quite functional Dt pros. Both have incredible ear pads. The price on the X2's make them the better relative value. They both have quality sound. **Q: What is the difference between the x2hr/00 and the x2hr/27 versions? which is newer?** A: From what I could find out there is no difference between the X2HR/00 and the X2HR/27. They are the same model, the /00 and /27 is just to identify the region it was made for. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Some of the best I've ever used. *by T***K on October 2, 2023* I bought these after my DT770 Pro's broke, and after a fair amount of shopping around.

But this purchase was money well spent. Well.........that is after I returned the first pair. I was shipped a box of screws. I'm not speaking metaphorically here, folks. In lieu of the X2HR headphones, Amazon shipped me a big, heavy box of screws. I was like, "I read these headphones are big and heavy but can they be THIS heavy". I had been literally screwed. But I got a refund and my second pair are amazing. I own a few other pairs of wired, open back headphones--all of which were more expensive and are considered more "audiophile grade": Sennheiser 660s's, HiFiMan Sundara's, and AKG 712 Pro's. The others could be called TECHNICALLY better. I will say there is a better transparency to the sound whereas these have a certain amount of "noise" in the signal. But guess what? If I had to pick only one pair to keep, it would be these. They may have technical flaws, but they are the most enjoyable to listen to. The tonality and tuning of these is incredible. Nothing seems missing. The bass is huge, the treble is lively and if there are scooped mids I can't say I really hear it. Certainly not as forward and mid heavy as the 660's, but that's not entirely a bad thing as they can sound a bit congested as a result. Oh that brings me to the best part: THE SOUNDSTAGE. These have the widest soundstage I've ever heard on headphones. They almost sound like speakers on your head. Very few headphones can compete with these in this category--no matter how much you spend. Apparently the Sennheiser 800s's also sound massive--but they cost literally 10x as much. (One of these days I'll probably be dumb enough to buy them anyway). Oh and comfort? The best of all of them. They are massive. Don't look in the mirror while wearing these. You look like a dork. But they feel like pillows on your head. The earcups are perfect. And headphones like this make me question whether expensive even means better. What about Audeze headphones? Focals? By the descriptions I've read, they are all very "warm" headphones with very rolled off treble. I would probably hate them. Even the 660s' suffer a bit from this--although they do sound quite good in their own way and are probably my second favorite pair. But if I put on a rock song I find guitar solos can just sound dull and uninspiring on them. If I put the X2HR's on and play the same track, the same guitar solo soars! After you get past the $200 mark, you get VERY diminishing returns from headphones I think. You could argue there's no reason to spend more. I was watching David Letterman's Netflix interview show last night and he was interviewing Billie Eilish and her brother (who both seem very nice--shame abut their music) in their home studio and it looked like they were both wearing blue Audio Technica M50x's. $150 headphones and they are millionaires. And these seem to be the open back equivalent to the M50x's: headphones that rose from seeming obscurity to become massive hits. Hit that Buy Now button.
