Features and Benefits
The Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 Wireless are an over-the-ear model, which makes them much more effective at blocking out sound, but they achieve bass reproduction that’s more like ported models. Sennheiser has a reputation for accurate reproduction throughout the audio spectrum, but they’ve made adjustments for the modern listener’s desire for more sub-bass during their playbacks. If you want bass, the Sennheiser Momentum’s will deliver booming sound without any hint of distortion. The overall sounds slightly modulated in the upper ranges, but it’s very clear. If you’re looking for studio-quality accuracy, the Sennheiser isn’t for you.
The Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 Wireless has really good noise cancellation, but if you use the headphones simply to block out noise, you’ll hear a faint hiss instead of silence. This isn’t noticeable when you’re listening to music or talking on the phone, but some people use noise-canceling headphones simply for noise reduction and might prefer a quieter design.
Simplicity of controls is important with headphones that will be worn when you’re out and about, and the Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 couldn’t be more straightforward. All the playback and volume controls are located on the right earcup, and operating them by feel is easy and intuitive. Bluetooth range is up to 33 feet, and once you lock onto your desired device, the headphones will remember it to make turning Bluetooth on again quicker in the future. Battery life depends on many factors, especially the volume you’re listening at, but you can expect up to 22 hours, with a 3-hour recharge time. If your battery runs down, you can always plug them in and use them as passive headphones.
