Behringer Headphone Bh470

When you first see the Behringer BH 470, you can’t believe your eyes: these 20 Euro headphones look very professional, their contours look elegant in brown and grey; the large oval ear cups have a stylish matt finish, and the Behringer branding is striking yet discreet. The chrome trim on the edges further enhances the design and provides a touch of smart “bling”. The grey-silver cuffs and headband are made of plastic, but are not made in one piece. The connections are not glued, but screwed together. Behringer relies on stable metal for the nine-step extendable and snap-in bracket extensions, which are reinforced on the inside with an anthracite-coloured plastic band for aesthetic reasons. The extremely soft padding with a cover of reddish- brown imitation leather both on the headband and on the ear pads promises comfort and a product which would be pleasant to use.

You’d usually expect to pay five to ten times as much for headphones with this kind of style, so what’s the catch?! Qualitative compromises have to be accepted in the fixed nature of the capsule padding and the spiral cable, which has a length of 3 meters, firmly connected to the left ear cup. They do not come with a protective case. But at such a competitive price, simply buy new ones when they wear out. The only additional accessory is an adapter from mini to 6.3 mm jack plug.
