Got my HD 599 SE today
I purchased a pair of HD 599 SE from eBay this week. I just got them in today. I brought them to work and opened my package. They are hooked to my computer with a 3.5mm - USB C dongle. The song that is playing right now is Animal by Miike Snow.
I have to say that I might have to sell my Sony WH-100

Need advice choosing a headset for PS5 (story-driven games)
These games don't need a mic so disqualify all gaming headsets. You can get better and more immersive sound by going for normal wired open back headphones, they are simply better at everything, including competitive fps if that's your thing. Gaming headsets are only good if you really need a mic and

Better quality headphones really make a difference
I use Sennheiser 599, they are extremely comfortable, they do not fatigue you in long sessions, the disadvantage is that they are "open" they do not have noise cancellation at all, but I repeat, the comfort is superior.

Open question - Headphones
Personally I would choose Sennheiser or beyerdynamic. I practice on the HD 599, tried the HD280 and it was too flat. Open back seems better than closed back, it has more room for low notes. I listen to music on a DT770 Pro, the best headphones I tried in the last few years. The AKGs I had were a bit

The best audiophile headphones are now from Sennheiser 🇩🇪, Philips 🇳🇱, Meze 🇷🇴, and Focal 🇫🇷. Quality = European
I recently replaced my Bose QC35 II with the Sennheiser Momentum 4. They're not as comfortable as Bose, but good enough, and much better sounding (especially after customizing their sound to my liking via the mobile app). Nothing beats the comfort of open-back headphones though. I can recommend Senn

Cheap headphones for a guitar amp
I’ve heard good things about the sennheiser hd599 and hd560. Personally, a huge fan of the hd600 and hd650 but they’re a touch out of budget. These are all open backed headphones too, so you can be aware of your surroundings still, which I appreciate.

What’s a small purchase that dramatically improved your life?
Just a good pair of hheadphones. I got some sennheiser hd599 years ago and obviously they are terrible at noise canceling being open backed and all... the upgrade going from aome razer headphones to that is insane. And they're only like 150-200 these days. Which is a lot but I had my first pair for

Headphones recommendations
Yeah, HD 599 SE here, got them steeply discounted for $99 on Amazon for my CA501. They're great, however they are open-back phones, so not entirely private to either the player or people in the room.

Why do people give Sennheiser such good rep when - in my experience - their top headphones have build quality issues, specifically CREAKs. E.g. HD 490 pro
Background noise on a lot of media like pod casts and stuff was just amplified vs all the other headphones i have used. Very distracting, i don't know if this is due to how warm the sennheisers i've used are but it's like any audio like fan noise in the background was just louder and overpowering th
