The Philips Citiscape Metro on-ear headphones exhibit a sleek, Euro design with a warm balance of sound.
Design and features
The Citiscape Metro is a lightweight closed-back, on-ear set of headphones. I see a definite kinship with the Downtown, the next model up in the Citiscape line. Both headphones are wrapped in faux leather with thickly padded ear cushions and pivoting earcups that naturally conform to different head shapes.
The Metros take a price cut to the Downtowns since they omit Philips's "MusicSeal" feature that promises superior isolation from external noise to keep the user's music a private experience. It's not just hype, either--the Metro's ear cushions aren't nearly as effective in blocking external noise.
Large perforations speckle the center of the ear cushions, presumably to
allow sound to pass while simultaneously providing air circulation, but
my ears still felt overheated after just 15 minutes of use. philips citiscape metro
