    I got the Sennheiser HD 600s three months ago and I use them almost every day, mainly listening to classical music. Before I decided to buy I tried to find out if the 600 would be significantly better than my old but in excellent condition Sennheiser 424s. I found little online with the exception of a single comment on Amazon which in the end inspired me to plunk down my money. In this review Ill comment on the HD 600s and compare them to the 424s (just in case theres anyone out there who is in the same place I was).

    I was skeptical before my purchase regarding the quality and look as it was open box. But, now I think its the best purchase I have made till now. I am in love with this headphone and it has surpassed my expectations.

    If you like music, especially instrumentals / vocals you will love these. If you have never had a solid pair of headphones, you will love these. I personally believe anyone who enjoys music, should have a pair of good headphones like these.

    These headphones sounded very good with linear sound and excellent detail. Unfortunately, the left cannel would intermittently drop out. I would have to wiggle the plug at the earpiece to get it to work.

    Pretty good on the base and will work well for most audio.

    I bought these after having a pair of Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro 250 Ohm headphones for the past three years.

    If you dont have a headphone amp then dont worry, these sound great without one and even better with one.

    One of the best headphones out there. I ditched HD800 because it was too bright. This is a very good balance for music with singers instead of pure instruments

    I own these, Grado SR325s and AKG K712s. All similarly priced open back headphones and all purchased through Amazon. I have tried all 3 with digital and analog sources and with old fashioned MOSFET amplification as well as modern Op-Amp amplification. Compared to the Grado and AKG counterparts, I do not prefer the sound of these. The most distinct area these are lacking is in the treble, which lacks the clarity of the AKGs or smoothness of the Grados. They are however built sturdily and quite comfortable, especially compared to the Grados. Thus the Its okay. 3 star rating.

    Best headphones, or cans, I have ever owned. I used to use Beats studio 2.0’s for the past 5 years for music/gaming. These do not compare.

With the HD 650, audiophiles will experience truly unique natural sound. With sound this good, long concerts in the comfort of your home are a certainty, so the HD 650 also sets standards in comfort and convenience. The HD 650 is a genuine masterpiece, which will satisfy even the most demanding listener. HD 650 the Reference Class.
