    Notice that these are open headphones so sound leaks. Other people will hear your music.

    Bass isnt as booming as id like and theyre open ear so you can still hear the outside world while wearing them...sound is crystal and impressive though.

    These headphones do not blackout any exterior sound and they probably leak sound pretty bad too. If you can live with this style of headphone then these are great.

    Glad on special offer - nice wide spectrum and good sound, nice long lead and gold plated mini jacks. Full price nearly £200 wd be too much for me

    Recording my listening experience with the Sennheiser HD 598 which I bought after breaking my pair of HE-400 headphones. I own Grado Labs SR80, BModed Fostex T50, Sennheiser HD-600, Hifiman HE-500. Hour 1: Pro: Looks good for plastic and reasonably comfortable. Con: heavy handed, muddy, base reminds me of a one-note subwoofer, and the signature reminds me of a cheap pair of Skullcandy headphones. You could get better sound from a pair of Beat headphones. I am feeling ripped off and dont recall the last time listening to music made me MAD! One word: Garbage! Hour 10: The headphones have opened up some. Vocals feel recessed. Bass still feels one dimensional. Upgraded rating from one to two stars. Hour 15: I am baffled by the positive reviews of this product. Yes, headphones and their sound signatures are very much a personal preference, but these are so grossly bad that I can only assume my ears are damaged or the headphones are defective. Returning them to Amazon.

    I own quite a few headphones. After I got this one, I use this most frequently. 1. This one is super comfy. Considering the size of my head being bigger than the average, I tend to care a lot about how comfortable headphones are. This HD598 is even more comfortable than Bayerdynamic DT770/990, which used to be my favorite. 2. Sound quality is great at this price range (100-300 euros). This is open, so if I compare this with DT990, I would say that HD598 is less neutral and less sharp, but warmer and more comfortable than DT770. This probably helps me enjoy music for a long time. 3. Design is probably subjective, but the design of HD598 is very decent (I got a black one). It is not as fancy as my Sony MDR 1R, but is better than for example Bayerdynamic DT series. This may not be a perfect for professional monitoring, but is a very good one for causal listening (especially for long hours).

The HD 598 Special Edition headphones are an open back, over ear, audiophile grade headphone that combines exceptional sound quality with extreme wearing comfort. This premium headphone features a padded leatherette headband and luxurious velour covered ear pads perfect for long listening sessions.
