Got my H2 already a couple of weeks ago - made pictures - but forgot to make the thread about it.
So here they are:
There is a tv - and there is a BV

It is very nice, light and tight sitting - you don’t really feel it on after a while. It is nice to handle and robust too.
Not like the H6, which is - imo - not really something for on-the-go.
I wanted the H2, because I needed a headphone to take with me on vacations, on train rides etc.
I would never take my H6 away from home.
It is too loose on the (my) head because of the higher weight - and it is also too ’expensive’ (for me at least),
if something should happen to it.
Besides, and that is important - it is not the headphone I need for the music I mostly listen to, when I am ‘away’.
The sound of the H2 is much more punching, forward and engaging. Quite nice for certain kinds of music.
The H6 is the one, that lets the music play, if you engage yourself in the music - it is airy and reveals a lot of details.
It lets you slip into the music.
It keeps background noise well away and does not leak much sound - which is not unimportant at home
It is not ‘dull’ at all, as long as you are actively listening.
It is ust the headphone I had been searching for for home-listening.
My wife fully understood, why I had to have both of them, when I explained that ‘we all need different/multiple pairs of shoes’……
Shoes for this - and shoes for that.
I must admit, that I don’t use the H2 very often. But it is there, when I am planning to go away - so it stays with me.
My H6 is still my favourite!
As with speakers in general - you should try the H2 yourself (with music you prefer/know), and then decide if you like it, need it, want it.
Maybe you’re like me - and need both of them
Fits nicely in a hardcase I found online - for a couple of €'s
Looks very nice
Yes!
Or rather a late birthday present
They look good and the lightweight and unpretentious style remind me of the Sennheiset HD414 headphones my family had when I was young . The H6 seems vain in comparison .

Not made for the H2, but it fits well in - and I had it already lying around:
