Smooth, neutral sound, Rhythmic, Taut, punchy bass, Good insight,
Tough competition,
They don't quite have the dynamic subtlety or transparency to trouble rivals such as the Grado SR325es, which launch themselves into the jaunty piano chords with more exuberance and attack.Still, the Philips Fidelio X2s are worthy alternatives. And if you...
Flattering sound quality, broadly mastered across the spectrum, Accurate sound, Practically no distortion, Wide, deep stereo sound, Design and materials, Unbeatable comfort, Removable ear pads and cable
Few changes since the X1, Slightly crisp sound, which won't appeal to everyone, Not made to fit all head sizes
A reworked recipe for almost identical results—that's probably the best way to sum up the Philips Fidelio X2. Its handful of modifications won't be enough to entice current owners of the X1, but they do make it an excellent set of stay-at-home headphones—...
Abstract: The Fidelio X2 doesn’t deviate too far from the Fidelio X1, which originally launched in 2012; it has the same over-ear design, open-back 50mm neodymium drivers and comfortable hammock-style headband, but Philips has tweaked the materials and colours for ...

Brilliant sound, Superb value, Premium build, Very comfortable
Lacks extras
The Philips Fidelio X2's are a superb pair of headphones offering premium comfort and build quality with a sound that rivals even the most vaunted audiophile cans....
The Philips Fidelio X2 is not for everyone. It does not sugar-coat the audio. It leaks sound which disturbs people around you. It does not isolate ambient noises to give you undisturbed enjoyment. But I still love it. It is a spectacular pair of headphone...
The X2 is a superb sounding headphone that is very easy to listen to. Don't forget it is an open headphone and that sound will leak in and out of it. The X2 is without doubt one of the better Mid-Fi headphones for use at home or at the office, not for on ...
Abstract: I imagine quite a few of you reading this review will already know of the Fidelio X1, perhaps even own them and looking to maybe upgrade. For those who are not familiar the X1 brought to the market a sound signature that many thought could not be possible...
With their offerings over the past year or so, I think Philips has become one of the major power-houses in headphone development. And for me, the X2 may be their best effort yet. For the first time, I think I'm hearing a near perfect tonal balance in a he...
Very wide frequency range, Mids and highs sounds superb, Velour over the memory foam pads provides great comfort, Sturdy build
Big in size, and with no compact form for easy transport, 3m cable is a handful, even with the cable management clip, Weight weighs on your neck after awhile
The Philips Fidelio X2 is a pair of headphones best suited for the indoors, next to a reclining couch or any other comfortable seat that you can really loosen yourself on, connected to your audio setup at home. While comfortable to wear, wear it for too l...
Abstract: When the Philips Fidelio X1 debuted in 2012, it received rave reviews for its rich bass and warm sound. Its successor, the Fidelio X2, builds on those same qualities in an improved package.For a start, the X2 looks more expensive than it is, thanks to its...
