Good Sound for few Bucks
I purchased those Headphones because I needed some inexpensive Headphones in order to play my bass without disturbing my neighbours. So I ordered the Superlux HD-662 simply because they are among the cheapest products, but still have good reviews. I never thought I would use them in a different occasions then playing alone at home, because I was used to more expensive headphones.
Quality: As usually the thomann package arrived very quickly and very well packaged. My first impression of the headphones: I was simply surprised. I honestly didn?t expect that quality for that little money. But I have to say that after some Weeks the audio jack broke (easy to fix!), and the wire insulation broke at the passage to the headphones. All in all no big deal . But ? as my biggest complain ? the tissue is getting very cracked, what looks not very nice.
Comfort: The headphones are not very lightweight, that doesn?t mean they are too heavy. But during longer (recording etc.)-sessions I noticed the weight definitely. Additionally I?m really starting to sweat under the Headphones. Especially in the summer that?s a little bit ? eew?.
Sound: Keep in mind that I am not a professional audio?master?. In my opinion the Headphones have its strength in the Bass frequencies. But I also used as ?ordinary? headphones, simply to listen to music when I am working at the PC. I think when you don?t have very high requirements the Superlux HD-662 have a very good sound and, that?s my very own opinion, can compare sound wise to products in the price range up to 150 Euros.
Conclusion: All in all you can say that the Superlux HD-662 are awesome for the price. If you don?t mind the weight and the minor quality issues you can get very high quality sounding headphones for a little money.

Great purchase !
Now that I've had these headphones for more than 6 months, I though it would be worth reviewing them!
They've had a lot to put up with, since I bring them everywhere when I travel (long drives/flights - squeezed in with luggage etc) and they've held up quite well.
I haven't noticed any decrease in sound quality at all or any damage for that matter.
I mostly use these headphones for home recording / mixing / live sound mixing and also just for kickin' back and listening to tunes.
The isolation is pretty good, enough to hear what you're listening to at low-mid volume levels even in loud surroundings. To my ears the sound quality is really good for something in this price range.
They're really comfy, I've worn these for countless hours and never have they felt uncomfortable, I sometimes forget that I'm wearing them !
I honestly can't find any flaws with these, in terms of value for money you probably can't do better.
I'd be getting another pair in a heartbeat if anything was to happen to them !
A big shout out to Thomann for a hassle-free delivery !

Nice!
I use these headphones for playing e-guitar trough Steinberg UR 22 & Guitar Rig/S-gear. They are good quality, fit nice on the head and sounds good. Cannot really compare to any other headphones but I can say the quality is there.
I recommend!

I like them very much.
I had some other headphones by a much more famous brand, yet, when I switched to these I could hear details I never heard before. Bought several, using them mostly for tracking, but I made several mixes using them.
For the price, they are amazing.

Excellent for rehearsal use.
I use them only for rehearsal (sadly i play right next to the drummer :), and they have a very decent isolation for the price. The sound, although not accurate enough for studio use, is very workable for live/rehearsal use (dont overload the bass :). They are a little bit bulky and in the summer the heat might of consideration. Nevertheless, more than fair for the price and very usable. Highly recommended.

Great budget headphones
I am very pleased with these headphones. Sound is great and even, perfect for recording at home, or even a professional studio. As far as quality goes, I haven't noticed any flaws and I doubt that I'll ever find any. As long as you take care of them they won't break so easily. One thing that I would count as a negative is that after wearing them for a while they become mildly uncomfortable. But that may be a personal issue

Bought as standby and became my number 1!
I can't recommend these highly enough. I'm a full-time audio professional and spend long periods of the day wearing "cans". I bought these as both my main pairs of headphones - BeyerDynamic DT100s & DT150s - were badly in need of an overhaul due to wear and tear. I found these so comfortable both to wear and listen to that the BeyerDynamics (which cost more than 3 times the price of these Superlux headphones) have been relegated to "spare" and the HD-662s have become my main set. I have recommended to a number of friends and colleagues and none have been disappointed. The build quality is excellent and although I had concerns that headphones at this price point might suffer wear and tear issues I am pleased to say they have lasted well for over two years without any problems. The enclosure is very good too - essential in a studio situation. One big issue with wearing headphones for extended periods of time can be the "fatigue" and often cheaper cans will begin to get sore or hurt. Again, this hasn't happened with these - the self adjusting headband keeps them at a comfortable level and also seems to avoid them being too tight. Great price/quality ratio overall.

good during band practice
Perfect for monitoring while playing live with my band, I needed a cheap closed ear solution and I found it, sound quality is better than i expected and shuts out all the outside sounds when practicing at a high volume with a full band, wish the cable was longer but thats just a personal preference I believe its the same length as most headphone cables, can always get an extension. headphones stay on tight which is perfect and they are built solid, would not be afraid if they fell to the floor a few times.

Quality bargain
I use them for practice on my roland drum kit.
Sound produced is clear and detailed. Kick sound is reproduced well. On some other headphones I tried, the kick was barely audible (eg HD-681F).
They are very comfortable over 2-3 hours sessions and don't squeeze my head to much.
It also provides decent isolation from outside noise and sticking noise produced on plastic/rubber cymbals.

Great sound from these headphones. Great build quality. Gets a bit warm sometimes but then I don't were headphones a lot. Overall unbelievable sound range at this cost.
