    Really nice quality plastic. Feels firm. At first, the headphones may feel tight but dont forget to adjust the length and let the soft pads cut your ears. Really comfortable. I can wear them to listen to music, watch movies, and play games all day.

    Muy buen producto. Combinado con un DAC , escucharas la música en formato flac o dsd a otro nivel. Muy a gusto con el producto. Y me llegó antes de lo esperado.

    These are my first open back headphones, they were an upgrade from some cheap tascams. I do music production as a hobby and i game so I wanted headphones that would do both, i run these through a behringer umc404hd interface and it drives them well. These are very detailed sounding headphones, the high frequencies are a bit sharp coming from closed back headphones but you get used to it, especially because you dont need loud volumes to hear details in all ranges, bass is definitely subtle, but punchy and sub bass has a nice range, its not like youll notice its there but youll notice if it isnt, depends on the song. Soundstage is hard to explain, coming from open back and in ear headphones and earbuds I always like the inside your head sound and coming in to these I was expecting a kind of out of head experience, which it can be, depending on the sound design, but for most songs, although there is a difference its not groundbreaking, people will mosly no notice. The bleedthrough is not bad and since i use these while gaming, my friends havent complained about sound coming out of these, but then again i have a dynamic mic, also you wont hear your surroundings that well, i can barely hear someone coming into my room, so if you wanted more spacial awareness these wont really help. Now the one thing I struggle with is the comfort, its not like these are uncomfortable but theyre pretty tight out of the box, theyre a bit on the heavier side of light and being used to on ear headphones having nothing touching my earlobes but my temples being pressed is a weird feeling, also the earcups are elongated so i feel the edges pressing against my jaw. The headband is very fluffy, so you wont feel it at first, but it is narrow so if you dont position it well it hurts after a while, in general these headphones dont seem to find their place on my head, probably is my head shape but most headphones you put on just tend to grab your head a certain way and then you forget about them, whereas these take some extra adjusting constantly, which keeps reminding me i have headphones on, and that takes away from the experience of the great sound, i cant get imersed as easily. The great sound makes up for a slighly uncomfortable headset, ive only had them for two weeks so im expecting them to keep breaking in, also the cable is way too long, senheiser should sell shorter cables as this is replaceable but i havent found a good replacement.

    Excellent sound. Great resolution and soundstage. Also have very good bass when EQed. They have a little bit of clamp right above the ear, but you can just use the box to break them in. Takes about 72 hrs.

    Best headphones for sound quality I have ever used. I have a Bose QC25 and N700, 1more triple driver buds and an AKG K52 that I have connected to various devices at work and at home.

    With an HD650, an HD558, an HD569 and an original Momentum hanging on my wall, the HD560s is the icing on the cake. I love neutral and this is it. Need a little break-in and they sound and feel better every day that I use them. Amp required to make them sing and you dont have to spend an arm and a leg to power them (Any Schiit will do). I am impressed and I applaud the Sennheiser craft once again. Brilliant.

    Very good headphones, they do truly sound very good. A lot of people say using an AMP makes these even better however I have found the usb-c Apple dongle works just as good for these. Cushions are firm but end up forming to your head after a while. I found they arent as great for gaming not because the sound isnt great but because you can hear the keyboard clicks through the open back which is a little distracting when trying to hear footsteps and other important sounds.

    Best entry level audiophile headphones under $200. Amazing Sennhesier sound signature. FWIW - I wouldnt order these from Amazon again- box was delivered with NO additional boxing, meaning they just slapped a label on the product box and had no protective shipping packaging at all. Really? Headphones were not adequately protected in shipping and had partially damaged box.
