Ultrasone Proline 750 Headphones Are Magnificent In Every Way!

If you are looking for a pair of headphones that you can wear while you are running accompanied by the music coming from your MP3 player, the Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones are definitely not for you. However, if you really care about your music and sometimes listen to music attentively while doing nothing else, then the Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones are most definitely the right choice for you.
I have come to realize the opinions (especially among audio professionals) about such things as microphones, speaker systems and headphones vary tremendously. I think anyone who has actually heard the Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones and then writes a review expressing their supposed dislike for the sound of these headphones, belongs in one of these three categories:
1. They are lying for some reason such as they own, are employed by and/or have stock in a competitor headphone company;
2. There is something wrong with their hearing;
3. They are insane.
In my opinion, the Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones are absolutely the best, most accurate sounding headphones I've ever heard. You may be asking yourself which other headphones I'm using as comparison to the Proline 750's. The answer to that question is all of the best of the "top of the line" brands. I could name them but I think you understand the caliber of headphones to which I'm referring. While all of these companies manufacture excellent sounding headphones, none of them (I will repeat that) NONE OF THEM MANUFACTURE A HEADPHONE THAT SOUNDS AS GOOD AS THE ULTRASONE PROLINE 750 HEADPHONE, in my opinion.
The overall sound of the Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones is like none other you've heard before. The sound is more true to life. The sound is more like listening to an extremely high quality speaker system while one is positioned exactly in the perfect "sweet spot" of the speakers.
I will attempt to illustrate and exemplify the sound of the Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones by telling you that right now I'm listening to a recording by the late, great singer, Ella Fitzgerald using the Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones. As I listen and analyze the "sound stage" of this recording as it is playing through Proline 750's, Ella's voice is in the middle somewhat in front of my head at my forehead and going somewhat "into" the front of my head, the piano is playing just outside of my right ear, the tromones and saxes are outside of my head surrounding my left ear, the trumpets are outside of my head, above and to the front of my right ear, the bass is outside of my head mostly behind the back of my head and to the left, the string section (except for the cellos) is outside and up from my left ear, the cellos are mostly behind the back of my head, the drum is outside of my head and above my left ear and the guitar is outside of my head, above and to the back of my right ear.
Reading a description of what it's like listening to the Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones if you've never had this experience is probably something like reading about swimming if your only experience with water has been drinking it. You have to hear the beautiful sound of these headphones to truly appreciate them.
Like all high quality headphones, the Ultrasone Proline 750's require a "burn in" time to bring their sound to it's fullest potential. I am uncertain exactly how long is that "burn in" time. But, I will say that the more I listen to mine, the more I like their sound and I liked their sound a great deal the first time I used them direct from the box.
Since I mentioned "the box", I will tell you that judging from the way the Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones are packaged, one can discern that the Ultrasone company is one that truly cares about it's products and it's packaging. You will understand what I mean by this when you see the packaging.
Another way one can discern this caring by the Ultrasone company is from the construction of the headphones, themselves. Their construction is very sturdy and durable. Another reviewer indicated that because the Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones are made of plastic, they appear "cheap" in his opinion. First, I disagree generally that they appear "cheap" in any way. In my opinion, they appear as being quite professional. Second, I disagree that because they are made from plastic that (in and of itself) in some way causes them to be tawdry or "cheap" appearing or in physical actuality. Remember, there are different grades of plastic and the plastic utilized in the manufacture of the Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones appears to be a very rugged, dense plastic that will last for many years. The plastic in these headphones causes them to be light and comfortable to wear, certainly every bit as comfortable as any other headphone I've ever worn and indeed, probably more comfortable than any other headphone I've ever worn.
I give my highest recommendation to you regarding the Ultrasone Proline 750 headphones. All things considered, they are magnificent in every way!
