According to our headphones expert
With the Sennheiser PXC 550-II, you don't have to turn up the music in a noisy environment. The headphones have noise canceling, which muffles ambient noise and white noise. Thanks to the aptX Bluetooth profile, you can stream music in higher quality than with the standard A2DP bluetooth profile. AptX also ensures a more stable connection with your playback device.
Sound according to expertThe Sennheiser PXC 550-II are right for you if you're looking for headphones that make music sound the way the artist intended it to be. The low and mid tones are rarely or never emphasized. These tones aren't pushed to the background either. This keeps the sound reproduction true to nature. The headphones have an equalizer. This allows you to adjust the sound to your own taste, so that it always meets your expectations.

The PXC 550-II meets my expectations. With a matte black finish, I think this model looks sleeker than its predecessor, the PXC 550. The sound quality is superb and the active noise canceling is very good. I bought this to listen to music undisturbed during work. They are very comfortable and light, allowing me to wear them all day with ease. I also occasionally use these headphones for gaming, thanks to the included cable you can plug them into your Playstation 4 controller. With online games I now hear much better from which side an enemy is coming, for example. The only downside: unfortunately you still have to charge with a standard micro-USB instead of USB-C.

It is worth more than €280 max. headset, but quality and all is there for sure! Highly recommended!

I was looking for headphones that I could use for multiple purposes, listen to music on a smartphone, watch movies on PC and TV and possibly make a phone call or zoom meeting. The sennheiser pxc 550 II meets this perfectly.
Decisive for the sennheiser pxc 550 II is that it can also be connected wired (usb) to a PC, then it charges and you can still use it. In addition, the different bluetooth protocols such as aptx HD and aptx LL are very pleasant.
