Sennheiser HD 650 - Audiophile Hi-Res Open Back Dynamic Headphone

Nothing to nitpick for the sound, even on onboard ALC or USB powered DAC. Although the comfort is not as good as HD598. The stock wires are heavy, plus the HUGE 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter, its really uncomfortable, even just slighly turning the head the wires will rob against yourneck, add to the fact each cup has its own wire conncted; The worst part is the wires splitting is too short! I believe not just me but almost everyone will feel constraint or tie up by the heavy and cummber sone wires. The other is not a big issue but HD598 is just too comfy! the HD650 by comparison, has way more clamping force on the head--maybe its new and Im used to HD598 for 7 years.

Ive had these for a week now and theyre now run in by about 100 hours. I have to say that straight out of the box they are rubbish but then no hi-fi equipment should be judged in that way. From an audiophile point of view, these phones cant really be faulted. They replicate all frequencies from top to bottom with ease and have great detail resolution. I wont go into superlatives as there are enough reviews on here going into minute detail, save to say that I dont think anyone buying these will be hugely disappointed.

Highly recommended and one of fantastic options seen recommended by most audio review sites. It was super deal at 24k.

These headphones are so crisp and clear, you could hear a fart in an orchestra concert.

Mir gefällt das Klangbild dieses Kopfhörers leider überhaupt nicht. Für mein persönliches Hörempfinden sind die Basse verwaschen, die Mitten nicht sonderlich klar und auch detailarm und die Höhen kaum vorhanden.

These headphones are tops for serious hi-fi listeners at home. However, owners will still need another set such as the Bose Quiet Comfort 15 for defeating background noise when travelling.

Headphones were exactly what I expected. They arrived on time and the packaging was very safe. Ive really enjoyed using them. Thanks!

Longtime Senn guy... and got many others into it over the years... I bought a pair of HD650s in 2015. I sold them to purchase the HD660s when those came out... I thought to myself I didnt like those as much as my 650s, so I returned them. I bought another pair of 650s a few months ago. They are not the same headphones as the OG. I looked this up and apparently Sennheiser improved build quality among other things... I was sketched out a bit, but decided to trust it. I mean, they were noticeably different and felt cheap. Again... thinking to myself, this is Sennheiser they wouldnt do that... maybe its just lighter/stronger mats.

I bought these for my son who composes music using pro tools. He LOVES them. He says they are comfortable to wear for a long time and the sound is great.

Me llegó con la caja golpeada lo que me llevó a revisarlos mejor, me encontré con una abolladura en la malla exterior del audífono derecho, nunca me había pasado recibir un producto asi, dentro de todo recibí buena atención para la devolución. Los minutos que los tuve en mis manos se me hicieron de una calidad que deja mucho que desear, no parecen audífonos de 500 dlls . En cuanto al sonido, se escuchan muy parecido a mis Beyerdynamic 770pro 250ohms .
