The Hesh 2 Wireless is a bulky but lightweight circumaural headphone that comes in black, blue, gray/yellow or camouflage. The ear cushions are well-padded, but can get a bit uncomfortable for extended listening. The volume controls and an LED status indicator/multi-function button are located on the right earcup. The volume controls also handle track navigation depending on how long you press them, and since the buttons are raised and shaped like + and – symbols, there is rarely any confusion even if you can’t see them. ..
The Hesh 2 Wireless is a pinhole microphone that is also located here. The micro-USB port for the charging cable is located at the top of the left earcup – in an awkward spot, so you have to hold the earcup in a certain position to see it, which can make plugging in the cable a hassle. The Hesh 2 Wireless can also be used in passive, wired mode – a cloth-bound cable is included.
The headphones come with a built-in microphone and remote, so you can still answer calls and control your device without having to reach into your pocket. When you plug in the cable, the headphones automatically turn off and stop Bluetooth pairing. When turned back on, the headphones will pair with your device again when the cable is disconnected and your mobile device is in pairing mode. The headphones also come with a USB charging cable and a protective drawstring pouch. ..
The Hesh 2 Wireless headphones offer a commendable reproduction of deep bass without distorting. Bass lovers might find the sound signature a bit lean, but the headphones deliver a clear bass response that doesn’t sound thin or overly boosted. There is certainly some depth, but it is simply not overdone.
