Sennheiser HD 560 S Over-The-Ear Audiophile Headphones - Neutral Frequency Response, E.A.R. Technology for Wide Sound Field, Open-Back Earcups, Detachable Cable, (Black) (HD 560S)

Earbuds gave me a ton of ear pain. These eased that. Takes longer for less pain to come.

El único punto negativo que le puedo poner es que por 250 dólares hay otras muy buenas opciones a considerar y de todas éste tiene los peores materiales, no son malos pero son los peores en el precio.

My boyfriend is pretty picky about headphones. For Christmas he asked for Sennheiser headphones and I chose these. Really fast delivery with prime. Anyways, he LOVED these. They are super comfortable with great sound quality. I wish they weren’t so expensive but regardless, he says they were worth the price.

You already did your research and you know they are good, make sure you have dac tho

I guess that you could call me a cheap audiophile. My previous favorite was the Hifiman HE-400i. These sound more tight and accurate. The 400is have more bass presence, but I think it is trampling the mids a bit. These (560s) sound more balanced. I never once thought that the bass on these was lacking. It has great extension.

I bought these to replace a set of K712s. The 712s are known to have a huge sound stage for gaming, but in my experience the 560s is even better and has more accurate positional audio and clearer imaging. For example when playing FPS games I can hear people running around in rooms above me, whereas with the K712 it sounded like those footsteps were coming from non-distinct locations in the same room. Music sounds good as well, vocals seem a little clearer than the K712 and there is slightly more bass.

im a good gamer who also love music and movies, and those headphone doesnt compromise anything sound wise. base are good and have great frequency range, not ULTRA deep base, but great, especially combine with the stability range it can achieve. those headphone are simply the clearest one i had, no mater how much noise is comming up from so many differences frequencies, they will reproduce the sound with great fidelity.

I bought these both for listening to music and for mixing. I have a pretty high-end stereo system with a tube DAC and Magneplanars so I am used to a very clean, detailed and musical sound. I was worried these headphones might be overly analytical and therefore not particularly musical. To my ears they certainly sound analytical but musical as well. Naturally it depends on the source material. Sure they wont make vocals slap you in the face the way the maggies do but they still sound every bit as musical. I hear far more detail and find things in tracks i have listened to for decades that I never realized were there.

The headphones were expected with a case

Ive owned plenty of high end, mid-range, low end headphones, and these are by far the most annoying sounding headphones Ive ever encountered. Even using a dedicated headphone amp to drive these, the high frequency sounds harsh and overpowers the overall sound.. I have to turn it way down. I ended up having to buy a dedicated EQ device to be able to TOLERATE using these headphones. I suppose if youre over 70 years old and no longer hear anything above 7 or 8khz youll probably be ok with these :)
