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), Wired

highly recommended.you can hear so much details in songs with comparing Sony M4s .Once your ear gets used to it you feel to hear so much details which you never heard it before .and of course you must need to select a HQ music source and better pair with a DAC/AMP for better performance .

Very good sound quality. One of my favorite headphones - Pioneer HRM7, the planar Hifiman HE400SE, Sen HD560s. I have more cans and even iems, but these 3 are my top. Listen to alternative, rock, classical.

Really great, I didn't need a dac/amp with it, it has high sensitivity, just plugged it straight to my PC, Very comfortable i wear it for hours with no problems. great sound quality, can hear the little details in the background.

best headphones under 200.. period.. nothing comes even remotely close, these are the best headphones i have heard yet. good build quality albeit all plastic but its fine because its really light, clamp is kind of tight but not horrible, extremely comfortable with no fatigue or anything since the cups are plenty big and soft.. but the sound is where its at really, these have the best treble performance i have heard yet, it hits the perfect balance of detailed and sparkly JUST before reaching harshness and sibilant, its right at the edge so its perfect for me, mids are insanely well presented and balanced, bass is very tight and fast but not rumbly, amazing bass performance in the right songs, these sometimes feel like they have more bass then headphones that are more bass heavy because of how good the bass performs (does that make sense?) overall i can say they are just so.. perfect.. its like there's nothing wrong with the sound profile at all, you dont even need EQ to adjust anything, just get these lol

After one year and twenty days, the headphone left speaker stopped working for no specific reason.

it won't boost blast the sound to your ear so it may seem it has a lower volume than a cheaper headphone but what it does is surround your ear and make what you hear sound like you're sitting there live and with some good music it's mind blowing, works just as well with gaming too. it's an expansive headphone but I don't regret paying for it.

I'm not an audiophile or headphone expert. I played drums as a teenager and later took guitar lessons for 10 years, still play the guitar almost daily, and love music in general. Hard rock has always been my favorite genre. I use headphones with my PC while watching YouTube music videos and concerts and also while playing video games like Cyberpunk 2077, Skyrim, Diablo IV, etc. I also have a pretty big library of old and new music on a 7th gen iPod Touch (now discontinued) and do some critical listening with that. I had been using budget headphones like the Koss KTXPro1 and Logitech G333 gaming earbuds, but always wanted to try something considered as "audiophile" headphones. My son is somewhat of a headphone expert, so I reached out to him for buying guidance. His ideal headphones would be completely neutral, with no emphasis on either highs or lows. To start, he gave me a FiiO K3, which is a DAC/headphone amplifier. I didn't know I needed one, but he insisted. He also convinced me to download and install the open-source Equalizer APO application and its companion Peace UI component. It's a bit daunting for a newbie to get started with the headphone amp and equalizer software, but there are plenty of YouTube tutorial walkthroughs available. In a few hours I had the headphone amp and the Peace interface working, and had separate configurations saved for the Koss and Logitech headphones. I downloaded pre-configured settings for each pair of headphones, which are set with the preferred "Harman Curve". I had no idea about any of this stuff previously. By the end of that day, I had learned how to tweak and save additional configurations, and now could choose between multiple pre-sets for each pair of headphones. For example, I created a pre-set that boosted the bass, another that boosted the highs, and one that boosted both bass and highs while leaving the middle frequencies at the standard Harman curve settings. That allowed me to experiment and decide my own personal preferences for music listening. Just a primer - the headphone amp connects to the PC by USB, and it disables the built-in PC audio chip with a more powerful and clean signal. Then you plug your headphones into the headphone amp instead of the PC headphone input jack. Windows audio and volume is bypassed, so now the volume is controlled by the volume knob on the headphone amp. (You can turn off the headphone amp to listen through PC speakers or with the standard PC headphone jack.) With the headphone amp and equalizer software, both my Koss and Logitech headphones sounded better than ever and I was hearing details that I wasn't hearing before. I had heard of headphone amps before, but never thought they were necessary. I couldn't imagine not using one now. Then my son lent me his AKG K702 open back headphones to try. He likes them because they are pretty neutral. As he puts it, "you hear the music as the producer and engineer intended it to sound." The AKGs were the best headphones I had ever tried, hands down. I downloaded the pre-configured parametric EQ file for them and listened for a few days. I learned that I preferred a more bass-heavy sound, especially with the hard rock I usually listened to. (I am currently obsessed with a band named The Warning, but like many other artists including Spiritbox, Breaking Benjamin, Band-Maid, Evanescence, Muse, and older classic rock like Deep Purple, Pink Floyd, Zeppelin, Hendrix, and Van Halen.) Given that I liked a bit more bass emphasis, my son suggested the Sennheiser HD 560S. I love them. With the standard EQ configuration, the low bass is a little lacking for my taste. I want the bass drum emphasized. So I created a pre-set with the bass boosted at 52 Hz and left the rest of frequencies alone. Perfect! I created another pre-set with the same 52 Hz boost and an additional boost at 5K Hz. I have some high frequency hearing loss, so this compensates for that, and allows me to hear the cymbals a little better. Normally I listen with the bass boost pre-set only and can hear everything fine. The only minor gripe I have with the Sennheiser HD 5600S phones is the comfort level. The ear pads are soft and comfortable, and the clamping force isn't too much. But the headphones are somewhat bulky, especially compared to the Koss which are feather light and have almost zero clamping force. The Logitech earbuds are another story since they weigh virtually nothing and there's no clamping force. That said, I have used the Sennheisers for hours at a time and they're fine. You do forget they're on once you're immersed in the music or the game. I'll definitely choose the Sennheisers every time for critical listening. Occasionally I will use the Logitechs or Koss when watching non-music videos like interviews or product reviews, for the improved comfort level. Here's a good website for scientifically tested objective headphone ratings: https://www.rtings.com/headphones Definitely recommend the HD 560S as an entry level audiophile headphone. They're a tier above sub-$100 headphones for sure.

Orgasmo auditivo !

Non mi è mai successo prima con Amazon, di ricevere un ordine con caratteristiche contrarie alla descrizione posta sulla pagina web dell'oggetto messo in vendita. Premessa: la cuffia è stata descritta come in "condizioni pari al nuovo". Una cosa inaccettabile: aperta la busta di contenimento: 1. la scatola presenta segni di usura 2. aperta la scatola, non trovo la custodia (credo in spugna o altro materiale) che dovrebbe contenere la cuffia per proteggerla. 3. l'ascolto della cuffia è stato ovviamente soddisfacente. In queste condizioni ho disposto comunque e immediatamente il reso.

ON TIME ..GREAT PRODUCT

Los compre en una oferta por 3500 pesos y la verdad han valido cada centavo. Los uso para gaming, música y multimedia, me ha sorprendido la cantidad de detalles que otros auriculares no captan que estos si, se siente como si le pusieras lentes a tus oídos jaja. La música se oye preciosa especialmente si consumes en formatos de alta calidad, en gaming permite un nivel de inmersión fuerte en juegos de un solo jugador y da buena información en juegos multijugador. No tienen micrófono, es el puro auricular, un aspecto a tener en cuenta si los quieres para jugar. El material es de plástico, es verdad, pero no se siente mal. Son ligeros y las almohadillas son de terciopelo, lo que facilita que puedas tenerlos por bastante tiempo sin que te incomoden. Lo que dicen otros es verdad, cuando te llegan tienen una fuerza de agarre fuerte que puede llegar a incomodar, pero con el tiempo se aflojan y son más cómodos, en menos de una semana se olvida esa impresión inicial. Tienen un volumen decente y una firma de sonido neutra, se venden como auriculares escucha analítica y lo creo completamente, reitero que permite escuchar muchos detalles lo cual me encanta, pero puede desencantar a más de uno si prefieres un sonido más cálido/musical. No hay que preocuparse por los bajos, se oyen de perlas.
