EPOS I SENNHEISER ADAPT 460 Specifications, Tests and Review

​​The EPOS I SENNHEISER ADAPT 460 are wireless headphones. The wireless connection allows absolute freedom of movement and with that increases the comfort of using the headphones. This feature is very popular, especially when using headphones every day. The limiting factor of wireless headphones is a certain delay in the sound transmission between the source and the headphones (almost indistinguishable for a normal user), as well as the need to charge them (in the case of wired headphones, the headphones are recharged by connecting the cable itself). The technology used for the sound transmission used by the headphones is Bluetooth 5.0. The maximum range of the headphones is up to 20 m. This range represents the distance from the sound source at which the headphones with wireless sound transmission can be used. However, the maximum range may be affected by obstacles such as walls or people, etc. The weight of the headphones is 50 g.

The sound quality can be affected by many factors. When it comes to frequency range, the wider it is, the more detail you will hear when listening. However, the range a person can perceive is highly individual. The average person is able to perceive frequencies in the range of 16 to 20 000 Hz. So the most common frequency range you will see on the market is 20 to 20,000 Hz. Lower frequencies up to approximately 256 Hz are considered bass frequencies. Therefore, the lower the bottom value is, the better the headphones will reproduce bass. Conversely, values from approximately 2 048 Hz upwards are treble. That is why headphones with a high upper value will provide a much more accurate reproduction of high notes. EPOS I SENNHEISER ADAPT 460 offers a frequency range of 20 - 20000 Hz. Overall, these headphones can reproduce sound up to 118 dB. However, be careful. Repeatedly playing music continuously at really high volumes can damage your hearing.

The design of the headphones and their ear cups can also affect the quality of the audio output. The closed design does not allow ambient noise or sound from the headphones to flow outwards. Not only will you enjoy music in noisy environments, but you won't disturb anyone while enjoying listening session. The closed-back design makes the headphones suitable for the office or for travel.

Active Noise Cancellation provides an even quieter listening experience.

A nice benefit of the microphone of the Headphones EPOS I SENNHEISER ADAPT 460 is the Noise Canceling technology that suppresses ambient noise and allows a clearer sound recording to be captured.

These headphones allow simultaneous connection up to 2 devices. This feature allows you to easily switch between listening from your mobile, tablet, or computer without having to switch manually.

In terms of headphone battery life as a significant factor in the purchase decision, it depends on what you want to use the headphones for and potentially how often you will be able to recharge them. Headphones with up to a few hours of battery life are more suitable for home use as they will require more frequent charging. Headphones with a battery life of around 10 hours or more are already more suitable for commuting and shorter journeys. However, nowadays you can also find headphones on the market that have a battery life in the higher tens to hundreds of hours. In this case, you do not have to worry about your headphones simply running out of power on longer journeys, and you will not have to deal with constant recharging. The battery life of the EPOS I SENNHEISER ADAPT 460 reaches up to 15 hour(s).

The standby battery life quoted by the manufacturer is 720 hours.

Charging time is 2 hour(s).
