Product Description
Ultrasone HFI-550 headphones were designed for abuse. The robustness of the HFI-550s along with S-Logic¿ make for one of our most popular headphones. This headphone uses a very efficient 50mm Mylar driver that provides high volumes even with lots of outside noise. The 50mm driver also has an enhanced bass response which is great for drummer, bassists, DJs, and gamers. With great isolation and sound, the HFI-550 will meet the needs of our most demanding users.S-Logic¿ Natural Surround Sound: S-logic¿ uses decentralized driver positioning to utilize the pinna of the ear in the manner it is used in everyday life, reflecting the audio signal off the surface of the outer ear in different directions before entering the auditory canal. This results in a very natural spacious three-dimensional sound. S-Logic¿ is the only headphone system which includes your entire sense of hearing. Safer Listening: Because the S-Logic¿ technology does not aim the auditory signal directly down the ear canal but at the pinna, pressure to the ear drum is decreased by up to 40% (3-4dB) for the same perceived loudness. This significantly reduces the risk of hearing damage and ear fatigue ¿ an absolute must if you spend a lot of time in headphones.ULE technology: The ULE technology was systematically developed by ULTRASONE for users who spend many hours in the headphones. All headphone drivers produce low-frequency magnetic fields. In response, ULTRASONE developed a special MU Metal shielding (ULE technology) to reduce the radiation by up to 60% compared to ordinary headphones. The ULE technology has stood the test of international review and is recommended by technical surveillance organizations.

Impressive headphone
By King Reis
I got one as a Christmas gift and I'm really impressed with it. The S-Logic is more than just one of those fancy "techy" names, it really makes you feel a deep and superb sound definition.I enjoy pretty much all types of music, from classical to heavy metal, from jazz to acoustic solo guitar. It passed the test in all sorts of music. I use it with either my iPod or listening to music on my computer.Pros: the sound quality is astounding. I'm a musician in my spare time and this headphone allows to me hear everything in such a detailed level that I have the impression that I'm listening to songs I've never heard before. The bass is punchy, the trebles are bright. Isolation from external noise is great. The volume is also great.Cons: I wish it was a little lighter and smaller. The cord is too long (3 meters), and sometimes it's a little tight on the ears, but I got used to it.

By Jonah Westrich
I originally purchased these headphones from a company I work at (which I believe I'm not allowed to name on this site!), and I bought them to replace an old work out & broken pair of $20 Sony headphones I've been using over the last 2 years.These sound great, and are able to reproduce near 10Hz - which is about as low as the 12" sub-woofers in my car go! The Ultrasone HFI550's also have great high-range - and seriously... EVERYTHING sounds 100% better then the cheap pair I was using before.That's about it! These sound great, are durable as heck, have a 3-meter cord and gold-plated 1/4" & 1/8" plugs, S-Logic surround sound (awesome, btw if you've never head surround in a pair of headphones before!) and have a 2-year warranty! What more can you ask for!?The only down side I've discovered is that they're kind of heavy compared to other studio phones - but on the contrary, they seal well and block out MOST outside noise (my co-workers have to tap my shoulder to get my attention when wearing them!!!)I hope my review helps someone out! I didn't once regret spending the cash for such a quality piece of audio equipment!

By Roy Teh
I bought this as I was looking for a pair of headphones for office use. I already have an AKG K702, a Denon D200, and I was looking for something for office use that doesn't leak too much sound out to the surrounding. For the price I paid, this is truly an excellent pair of headphones - especially for rock. Great bass. My only complaint is that the clamping force is a bit high.
