  • Abstract:  The L1s are Philips' classy riposte to the craze for over-the-ears headphones with processed sound. They provide a more quality, natural sound, are supremely comfortable and nicely made, with the Philips branding, significantly, I say, so muted as to be n...

  • A refined yet engaging sound that's easy to listen to over long periods, fine build and finish, comfortable, low levels of sound leakage
  • Some rivals sound more dramatic
  • These Fidelios aren't the kind of headphones that demand your attention: top rivals from the likes of Grado, AKG and Beyerdynamic that do that better.However, if you value subtlety and want a pair of headphones that have an easy-going yet still enjoyable...

  • Great design, Excellent clarity, Versatile
  • Need amp for best results
  • The Philips Fidelio L1 are semi-open headphones that want to stay at your side whether you're at home or out around town. For the most part, they do the job perfectly. They are extremely well-made, look pretty natty and are comfortable as long as it's not...

  • Sparkling clarity, Premium build, Lightweight
  • Inconsistent bass
  • The Philips Fidelio L1 headphones are designed for the discerning listener more than the street-walking basshunter. If you want to look down with the kids and have your head blown off with bass and nothing else, Beats by Dre are more your bag. But the L1'...

  • Comfortable to wear, sound terrific, excellent build quality, iPod and standard cables provided
  • Expensive, bass can be a little weak, pop can sound crushed
  • A terrific pair of headphones that have beautiful clarity and are comfortable to wear. There's more than enough here to recommend, but we do think the price is a little steep, but you could pay more for less if you bought "fashion" headphones. ...

  • Retro design and sturdy build, Excellent audio, Non-tangle cable
  • Expensive, Could do with longer TV cable
  • As with any audio products, there's a certain amount of subjectivity involved, depending on what kind of sound you prefer. While strong, the bass response on the Philips Fidelio L1 might not be meaty enough for some, but it was certainly good enough for u...

  • The Fidelio L1 is simply a great headphone. Now, I do say that with some caveats: It might not play loud enough off your Droid, its bass resonance might bug you, and Philips really ought to ship it with a halfway-decent carrying case. But I think the vas...

  • Abstract:  The Fidelio L1 headphone was designed to be Phillip’s entry to the premium headphone market. Both in terms of build quality and sound, the L1 is supposed to be far ahead from the typical consumer-grade Philips headphone.Build QualityHolding the Fidelio...
