Review: Quality entry level audiophile headphones. - I bought these at around 200 pounds, and think them a good buy at that price. The HD599 SE can be bought for less than half of that, usually as an desertcart exclusive. There is no functional difference. The only difference is the colour. Quality is good, which is generally pretty standard for this brand. The main body is plastic but it still feels sturdy. Comfort is among the best out there. The soft, plush ear cups can be worn for hours without feeling restrictive. They're more comfortable than the Sennheiser Momentum 4s that I also own, and those are very comfortable. These are open backed headphones. That means there is no noise cancelling at all. In fact, there's very little noise blocking either, because your ear isn't sealed in. That's how they're supposed to be. Sound is pretty neutral. Probably suffers a bit in the mid range sounds, but these are expensive yet not hyper expensive headphones. They suffer slightly in the mid range because they're a mid range product; however, they don't tend to misrepresent sounds in the same way that the hugely bassy Beats Pro Over ear wired headphones did [the really chunky metal ones from 10-15 years ago around £400]. You're getting a neutral listening experience for an entry level audiophile headphones. These are wired headphones with no battery life and no option to. You probably could with some sort of Bluetooth dongle, but why would you want to? These are for sitting in a comfortable chair and listening to your vinyl records. These come with a 1.2 m cable with 3.5mm jack and 3m cable 6.5mm jack. The former is for your portable device, probably a phone. It'll need to be pretty quiet wherever your using these because, as I said, they're open backed. If you live in London and you're on the Jubilee line, even with the volume at maximum, the only thing you'll likely be able to hear is the Jubilee line. I think the 1.2m cable is an afterthought to increase the options. Nice to have but i'll never use it. Make no mistake, these are sitting down indoors headphones. The main cable will plug straight into your amp. 3m should be plenty of length for that purpose, depending on room setup. I suppose you could use a 6.5mm to 3.5mm adapter to plug it into most televisions that feature headphone jacks [nearly always 3.5mm], but 3m seems pretty close to the TV to me. You could use an additional adapter to join the two cables together to create a 4.2 metre cable, if you wanted to be further from the plugged in source. You'd need a female to female 3.5mm adapter to do that. Assuming any adapters used were well made and the connection good, the sound should not be affected [physics doesn't work that way]. 1.2m = 3'11" 3m = 9'11" I own quite a few sets of quality headphones and earbuds. Different things for different occasions. These are a worthy addition. They've more than earned their place. If you like black, the under £100 SE version is a no brainer. I've seen those for as little as 70 quid brand new. That's a lot of quality for not much money.
Review: Clear, detailed and solid sound stage. - Clear, detailed and solid sound stage, at least with most of my music collection. I have been buying various forms of the cheaper Sennheiser headphones for many years, my favourites were probably the portable PX100-II unfortunately no longer available and not very durable. I also had a pair of HD 495's back in the day, very low price and perfect, only Sennheiser do not offer replacement pads etc for them, still have them just in case I find suitable replacement parts. These are all open back and provide clear relatively undistorted bass, detailed mids, especially vocals, and some reasonable higher frequencies. These headphones are almost perfect, mids and very solid and appear exactly where they should be on the sound stage when I am using higher quality source material, well pressed vinyls, well sourced high res audio and even some masters played on Youtube. What is surprising is that it is forgiving with some lossy compressed content, but the bass seems a little out of control with even the the highest quality content. I don't think the bass rendition is accurate, but it is pleasant with some content and just lacks precision at times. I have used driven these phones using: My PC, headphone jack, on an AORUS X570 Pro. This is a high quality device, sound section has been designed with gamers and audiophiles in mind, DAC up to 192khz 24bits very low noise (I wired the jack myself to ensure the lowest noise). Just about anything I play on this sounds great as long as the source material is good. Have not done much with gaming to comment. Behringer UMC202HD, used with Laptops while working on tests with various turntables and cartridges and other audio sources. This device provides DAC and ADC support for up to 192khz 24bit sampling, have had some great results listening to my vinyl collection, capturing the audio to add to my digital library. PiFi DAC+ clone, using a Burr-Brown PCM 5122, still experimenting with this. Have actually driven these phones directly from the 5122, probably not a good idea, but they still sound great. Use this as the main way to access my music library. Supplied with two cables, a 1.2 meter with 3.5mm plug and a 3 meter with 6.3mm plug with an adapter to take it down to 3.5mm, the adapter is large does not sit well in most devices offering a 3.5mm socket. if anything rubs or taps on the cable I can hear it very clearly on the left, very annoying! Worth finding a replacement cable, still have not found one. These are good headphones IMO, but for the price I'm not sure, also if you are looking for a good clear accurate punchy bass, going by other reviews I think I would consider the HD 560S, wish I had!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like being there
*by A***R on 7 September 2020*

Tested with ifi Zen Dac These are just amazing, they are very light and with little clamping force, it is easy to forget you have them on and you can wear them forever with no discomfort, the pads a re the first I have ever owned that do not touch my ears at all. They even look gorgeous in ivory and brown. There is no wireless option here, nor any noise cancelling, you just get amazing sound from them. At 50 Ohms, these are easy enough for a phone to drive but you may also want to consider a headphone amp to really give these phones the best signal to work with. Sound wise, the sound is very relaxed, I was concerned that after previous Sennheisers, these would have a very boomy bass, they don't, they have sufficient bass though they probably wouldn't be suited to bass heads. mids and highs are relaxed which I like for the evening when I am just listening. I have headphones and earphones which have far livlier highs but these I find to be tiring. One thing to note is they are not forgiving at all of poorly recorded or mastered tracks. You can stream the high bit rates from spotify or tidal and they will sound great but if there is source is poor and has too much dynamic compression these will let you know about it so things like China in Your Hands will sound like garbage even from vinyl or SACD. The sound stage is not the widest I have heard but things do exist outside your head whilst listening, I have sometimes found myself wondering and checking that my speakers were not also playing the music. As these are open backed, you will hear the world around you and they will hear your music, so they are best listened to alone. I listen to most types of music and have found that whilst most types do well on these, classical really shines out on them and you can picture the instruments around you. These are not heaphones for dancing with, or wearing for a workout. They are also not really suited for analytical work in the studio but they don't try to be for any of those things, they are for relaxing in comfortable chair with a glass of good single malt whisky and for that purpose they are amazing. Update, can I make these 6 stars? They have an undocumented feature, in that they are internally wired as balanced, and if you can find a compatible balanced cable teh sound goes to the next level, it is incredibly clear and the sound stage is wider. Search around for a cable (warning some that claim to be compatible may need slight modification to make the groove in the 2.5mm plug deeper) and you get great sounding balanced headphones for a ridiculously low price.
