Review: Needs EQ and then they're Wonderful!! - What can i say, very well made headphones and the sound really nice and accurate especially when you eq the slight muddy base. Great headphones especially on sale for $100!!! Gaming on FPS games like Valorant is really Cool! you can hear footseps easily and the direction. Overall, Great imaging! Great sound accuracy not too harsh and somewhat warm. Awesome Price, Only HD560 will be a small upgrade in terms of build quality and easier to use since you can wear those without eq and they will sound nice out the box without any tweaking.
Review: Better than my B*se - These are by far the best headphones I’ve ever used. I’ve been using a pair of B*se quiet comforts, which I originally bought for airplane trips. Those work well for noise cancellation but they have no range or depth compared to these. The Sennheiser’s go on sale from time to time, and if you can get them under $90 then they’re a no-brainer. Someone who wants the best possible sound for the lowest cost of acquisition and who is going to be using these at home in a quiet / private environment will be very happy with this purchase. I would not recommend these for airlines or other forms of public transportation, as the open back model allows others to hear what you are listening to, at the same volume. These are not appropriate for public places. Likewise, you will hear everything around you, and not in a good way. The wire makes these inappropriate for any sort of exercise as well. You would be better served with a bone speaker which is wireless and which allows for the ambient noise around you to still be audible. These are very appropriate for someone who is listening/mixing/producing music at home, or for someone who is playing video games or watching movies in a private room. The surround sound is spot on and clear, the range is vast, and the sounds are crisp. Moreover the ear muffs themselves are very very comfortable. The microfiber lining allows for hours of wear. The holes for your ears are very large, so if you have big ears then these are good. Note, these are good for ears which sit close to the head, if you happen to have ears like dumbo the elephant which are seated far from your head then these may not be for you, as I can feel them rubbing one of my ears not from the top, bottom or sides but from the outside and it is uncomfortable from time to time. These also fit people with large heads, I have a large head and a lot of hair and these fit very nicely for long stretches of time (IE several hours without removing them). The last thing to note is that the volume on these at “10” is equal to my Bluetooth headphone when the volume is set to “60”, so you’ll get a much louder headphone. If you have very very sensitive hearing then that could be an issue, but if you are not super sensitive these will be better than Bluetooth in that regard. At $200 they’re alright, but under $90 they’re really something. I would rate these as a buy, but unless you have money to burn then wait for them to go on sale and you’ll be very happy indeed.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do these compare to the 598s?**
A: The HD 599 is a cosmetic refresh of the the HD 598.  Both uses the Sennheiser SYS38 50-ohm transducer.

**Q: How is the bass on these headphones? Does it effect the mids/highs at all?**
A: While these aren't "bass head" headphones, they have noticeably more bass than their predecessor the HD 598s.  I always found the HD 598s to be a little "bass light", where the HD 599s have a much richer sound.  The HD 599's are more musical where the HD 598s are more analytical.  Depending on the track and your listening level there may be some noticeable intermodulation distortion where the bass frequencies will distort the mids and highs.  On Deadmau5's new track "Let Go" the effect is very noticeable when you turn them up (and not all that loud).  Playing the same track on my HD 600s, HD 650s, and HD 700s does NOT result in this distortion.  It isn't that the bass is distorting, it just interferes with the mids and highs.  These HD 599s are my daily driver (at work) and I REALLY like them.  They are a far more versatile than the HD 598s, they sound fantastic, and I don't regret the purchase at all.  At work I run them on a Schiit Modi 2 Uber/Magni 2 Uber stack and the pairing with the HD 599s is excellent.  The highs are also better on the HD 599s than the HD 598s (which struggled with "Sh" and "F" sounds).

**Q: Can you use these on a phone**
A: Yes. I have an earlier version, the HD598SR. They are compatible with phones and computers, and the short cable has a built-in microphone which will allow you to use it on phone calls. The longer cable doesn’t.

**Q: Can any recommend an amp for these? i was thinking of getting the objective 2 but if anyone else has a better one please tell me. p.s. i'm on a budget**
A: I powered the HD599s with my LG-G4 smartphone, an Acer Chromebook R-13 (excellent headphone section for a laptop), a Schiit Modi 2 Uber/ Vali 2 (Genalex Gold Lion 6922 tube) stack that I use at work (I also used a Schiit Magni 2 Uber with the Magni 2 Uber), and a Schiit Bifrost Multibit/Valhalla 2 (Genalex Gold Lion 6922 tubes)stack I have at home (I also used a Schiit Asgard 2 with the Bifrost).  I did/do not apply any equalization or effects when I listen.  Like all the higher end Sennheiser headphones, the HD599s improved noticeably as the driving components improved.  After a lot of listening to the 598s and 599s I concluded that they both sounded best when run through my Bifrost/Asgard 2 stack (The Modi 2U/ Magni 2U pairing was also excellent), so this is how I listened when doing my analysis.  Like most lower impedance headphones, they both seem to prefer solid state amps to OTL tube amps, but they did pair well with the Vali 2 (a hybrid tube amp) as well. I know the O2 is a brighter amp (and solid state) and would probably pair quite we with these.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great set of entry audiophile headphones. Warm, articulate sound and well built
*by J***N on December 31, 2020*

I really like these headphones. They are comfortable, look sleek, have great sound, and respond well to EQ. BUILD QUALITY: I would place these in the higher medium build quality. Very typical Sennheiser feel. They are mostly made of plastic but it’s not cheap plastic. There is absolutely no creaking when twisted and manipulated. They have a premium feel. The leatherette headband is comfortable and adds to the sleekness. The velour ear pads are very soft and comfortable. They don’t make my ears hot at all, making long listening sessions a breeze. The long 9’ cord is thick and durable. I love the length because I can sit comfortable on my couch while I listen. It comes with a shorter 3’ cord for listening on my phone around the house. I would not bring these out in public because they’re open back and everyone will be able to hear what you’re listening to. Don’t be that person. SOUNDSTAGE: I would say the sound stage is medium. Definitely not as wide as some other headphones that I’ve tried such as the Audio-Technica ATH-AD700X, which were TOO big in my opinion, but enough to give the music some space to breathe. They definitely don’t have that closed in soundstage that closed back headphones have where the music feels like it’s right on top of you AUDIO COMFORT: These are very comfortable to listen to. It has a nice warm delivery that make listening to vinyl especially enjoyable. Some people complained about the boomy bass and I will cover that in the next section but compared the the ATH-AD700X, they’re much warmer and not harsh at all the way the ATs were. Regarding vinyl records, these seem to hide surface noise quite well. HIGHS/MIDS/LOWS: One thing to note here is that these seem to respond well to EQ. Many people find these headphones to be too bassy, and they’re half right. Out of the box they do seem a bit boomy but a simple bass adjustment on your EQ will resolve that. All songs are mastered with differing levels of highs, mids, and lows and you have to compensate on your end to make it sound the way you want. His is especially true when going from vinyl to digital sound. Some adjustments are going to need to happen. HIGHS: Highs are articulate without sounding icy. MID SECTION: Again, clear and articulate. LOWS: Lows don’t seem to get lost in the bass. BASS: I am pleased with the amount of bass these produce. I actually would prefer to have a set of headphones like these that have a touch more bass than I want because it’s easier to roll that off on my EQ than to push them to produce more. If the drivers are incapable of it, they just won’t be bassy and it’ll end up muddying up the rest of your sound, sounds I take the more bass as a positive NOISE ISOLATION: They’re open back so they’re not at all noise canceling or even noise isolating. For this reason I would not recommend using them in public where everyone will be able hear what you’re listening to. These are really designed for at-home listening FINAL THOUGHTS: These are a great pair of entry level audiophile headphones. I think there’s enough to love here for the price point.
