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)

I returned these immediately. I cant believe Sennheiser would manufacture headphones with such a muffled, muddy sound, but the pair I received sounded like the music was coming from behind a wall with an indistinct soundstage.

I guess that you could call me a cheap audiophile. My previous favorite was the Hifiman HE-400i. These sound more tight and accurate. The 400is have more bass presence, but I think it is trampling the mids a bit. These (560s) sound more balanced. I never once thought that the bass on these was lacking. It has great extension.

I did much research and a bit of testing before finally settling on these. I was looking for quality headphones in the $200 range for listening to music and watching videos on my desktop computer.

I bought these cans thinking that I could drive them directly from a Macbook Pro (2018 model).

These headphones are magical. Especially for vocals, it made me fall in love with singers I never paid attention too before and I usually dont pay too much attention the the singer.

Bought this for gaming and I am very happy with my purchase.

These headphones are very nice and comfortable. And most importantly, they sound great. I mainly use my headphones at home, and I must say that Amazon HD music sounds amazing. I dont need more expensive headphones than these to enjoy HiFi music at home. Highly recommend.

Excelente producto, suena super flat y para mi caso es justo lo que buscaba. A tener en cuenta es que el volumen por la impedancia no es tan alto y los materiales de construccion son plasticosos, entendible pues evidentemente la mayor inversion la hicieron en los drivers lo cual en general es preferible y el cable que a mi gusto es excelente pues es muy largo, para algunos puede ser algo molesto. Recomendable al 100.

Headphones was great. Sound was awesome. Too bad it’s not really that comfortable like what people are saying. It has a really tight clamping force. I gave it a week to break in but nothing really changed. The build is plastic so I doubt that the clamp force will get better. If it was a metal headband I would’ve just bend it a little. I did try bending it but like I said, it was plastic. Plastic does bend but it goes back to its original form. I wish it has a 58x headband.

I saw many people saying these headphones were great, especially for the price-range. I found them almost painful to listen to: extremely muffled and tinny - the cheap USB headset Ive had for 10 years sounds vastly more clear. I spent days trying to fix these: installing and reinstalling drivers, consulting tech support guides, etc. I talked to someone with a similar problem who said an external DAC had helped, so I bought one. Nothing made these headphones sound better, though. Now Im returning them. I saw a review here when I bought these saying what Im saying now. I should have listened...
