Sennheiser HD 25 replacement ?

From my own experience/collection: Beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro would be my top choice for your purpose. One of the most comfortable closed headphones out there for extended use. I can wear these for hours and hours. Sennheiser HD-380 Pro are also very comfortable, and isolate better than the Beyers. Sen

My Vic Firth’s broke. Recs for iso headphones?

Sennheiser HD 280s I found them to have just as much isolation as the Vic Firths but more comfortable and better sounding. The only thing I dislike is the curly cable.

Headphone recommendation for Soundcraft UI24R Rackmixer

If you’re narrowing it to AKG K371, Shure SRH840A, Sennheiser HD 280 Pro, and Beyer DT770 Pro, you basically picked the actually useful on a loud stage shortlist. K371 is the most neutralish of the bunch and it seals well enough for stage, plus you get long detachable cables in the box, so you’re no

Quality affordable headphones

I've been using my Sennheiser Professional HD 280 PRO headphones for years. I like the accurate sound reproduction, rugged built, and they're comfortable to wear.

Best Editing Wired Headset (Suggestions)

I've have a few pairs of the Sennhwiser HD 280 pro over the last 10 years and they kick butt. For a mid-range price point ($100) these are hard to beat. Great sound, comfortable to wear, great sound range (low to high) You will still want some studio monitor speakers to test on as well. I usually mi

Home sound set up advice

Recording/tracking is normally done with headphones, not speaker monitors. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/HD280Pro--sennheiser-hd-280-pro-closed-back-studio-and-live-monitoring-headphones I think these are the ones that were previously labeled as the HD-99's. Closed back, so good bass respo

Does someone who likes listening to music should care about getting a "reference" headphone?

No earphones, or loudspeakers for that matter, reproduce sound perfectly. The most common problem is that the frequency response is not flat. For example a given model might have more or less bass than the original signal, or might have peaks and dips in some of the high frequencies. This is not "di

Ill leave Razer for good this time!

There are some good ones out there. I've had the same set of Sennheiser HD 280 Pro headphones since 2012 now. I've replaced the headband foam twice. Almost time again. Replaced the cord once, after someone tripped over it. Got some very comfortable ear pads about 4 years ago, still going strong.Good

Looking for an Audio Interface.

I have a focusrite 2i2 and I just use Sennheiser HD 280 Pro headphones with a seperate xlr mic. They're only like $85 now (used to be more expensive), excellent sound quality, noise reduction, and comfort. Been using them for like 12 years lol. They're not active noise canceling but they're extremel
