I have a pair of 12 year old Philips SBC HP200 with me and i looked for any discussion threads that might be out there, but there is none so i thought of opening one since i am sure one you owns this. I am not much of a technical fella or audiophile. Just love good sound and that's all. I've been having them for a very long time and they work perfectly well as the day i bought them. Built like tanks to last forever, and it only cost me around 14$ back then. They were my first full size cans it got me in to this hobby. I didn't had anything to compare it with back then but now i do and they sounds amazing for what they are. They have such a big huge heavy full bass sound. If you like bass and wants to find some old cans, they are the ones for you.
I tried the similar priced Philips cans later on but they can't even come close to what SBC HP200 sounds like. They are that good.
These cans always felt low volume and under powered when i used them but recently i got a V.E Odyssey dac dongle from venture electronics and now they are on STEROIDS. they sounds out of this world good with full volume.
nothing much to say other than they are build like tanks with a thick cable and good sound for the price. Very comfortable to wear as well. Also they are SEMI-OPEN back i think because i can hear outside sound very well and they feel airy. there is almost no seal from outside sound.
Here are some specs i dug out of the internet.
32 Ohms
15 - 22hz
100db sensitivity
