The HFI-780 headphones from Ultrasone provide crystal clear audio in a compact and comfortable package. Developed from the studio sector, the HFI-780 has a frequency response that's specially tuned for DVD and gaming, making these the perfect headphones for the home theater or video game enthusiast. Highly-efficient gold-plated 40mm drivers put you right into the middle of your movie or video game experience.

The headphones feature S-Logic Plus, an advancement to Ultrasone's S-Logic Natural Surround Sound technology that provides the same realistic, spacial audio soundstage in a more streamlined earcup. This technology also creates a reduction of sound pressure levels, giving you the same perceived loudness at lower volumes, which may help to reduce the risk of hearing damage.

In addition to being able to listen at safer volume levels, the HFI-780 offers reduced electromagnetic emissions. The ULE technology uses an MU metal bufferboard to reduce radiation by up to 98% compared to standard headphones. For professionals who spend a lot of time wearing headphones, this is a fantastic feature.

      Comments about Ultrasone HFI-780 Closed-Back Stereo Headphones:

      Great headphones for the price. I've researched, listened and bought my headphones to look for the pair that I like. I'm not an audiophile, but I would say that these headphones are definitely up there in terms of performance in this price range. It's better than the shure srh840 in bass performance and the clarity of both the high/mids are great...tho the shure are slightly crisper and more neutral sounding. Initially the bass might be strong, but as you burn them in it should settle down (the detail and tonality of bass are top-notch though). These are way better than audiotechnica ath-m50. In terms of the overall balance, I would say these are slightly bass heavy and warmer sounding than monitor headphones like ultrasone pro-750 or 650. That's not a bad thing though...these headphones work without an amp and works fine on mp3 players. It's still crisp and detailed with all the frequencies. Some people don't like the comfortablity, but I don't find any issues with it. If you find the pads too hard, you can buy beyerdynamic dt250/280 ear pads to make it softer and fit better. I think these are better balanced than the ultrasone hfi-580 too. Been a great purchase but not 5/5 because bass could be better, and it's also slightly heavy.
