Sennheiser Professional HD 280 PRO Over-Ear Monitoring Headphones

These are the only headphones that have ever held up for me. I dont feel like Im particularly rough on headphones, but these have held up for over a decade. In the mean time Ive gone through countless in-ear headphones, a few studio style headphones, and one very expensive bluetooth headset. This is all thats lasted. That combined with the clear, accurate sound definitely gets a recommendation from me.

Very good sounding headphones.

These are good headphones. The only reason I’m giving them 3 stars is for these two reasons. 1) I’m an adult woman, but these are huge. They’re made for a large, male sized head. I can’t adjust them down to fit my head as well as I’d like. Unfortunately, this seems to be a common issue with almost all headphone brands out there. (Or, maybe I just have an unusually small noggin)

Im not sure why so many people are praising these headphones. My guess is that the HD280 might be good for listening to a one instrument at a time during recording. But when music comes together they produce completely lifeless sound - all the vibrancy of the music composition is lost.

Bought these for voice over training. I didnt want complete noise cancellation so these worked great. They are comfortable even wearing for a long time. I would purchase again.

Chrystal clear sound great noise cancellation &comfortable to wear for hours

Great sound. Not quite as good comfort as some of those overpriced Bose headphones, but certainly better than a lot of them out there. Nice that you can replace parts on it, though I havent had them long enough to need any.

The Sennheiser HD 280 Pro was selling for about 80 bucks when i got them. After a couple of months of usage, i have come to the one conclusion : THEY ARE AWESOME! When I first got them, the headphone felt a bit tight but over time, it loosens up a bit and it isnt quite as vice-like as other reviewers say it is.

Ear cups, great sound.

Works great.
