I have a few songs I always used to listen to, orchestral songs that just took me to another place. Transcendental, I've heard it called. Well after getting these headphones these songs are taken to a whole new level. I close my eyes and I could swear I'm in a concert hall the sound is just so realistic, so perfect. That being said, crank up something nice and heavy and these will rock your socks off. It does everything except rattle your brain with bass.       » READ MORE

I've had these for awhile... 3rd owner, bought them used off the head-fi.org for sale forums. They are still like-new and sound great, so they hold up well to careful but regular use. I wear them about 8 hours a day, plugged into my computer. I have a DAC and amp, and the 595s benefit from them, but they certainly don't need them. My Cowon A2 drives the 595s just fine, too. So you don't need to have an amp to enjoy these.       » READ MORE

I listen for hours a day and these are the best headphones I've ever owned, and I've gone through a number of them over the years. At one point I tried the HD 555 but found the sound to be too distant for gaming, the 595 remedied this by creating a feel that you're much much more upfront to the action, similar to sitting in the front row as opposed to several back as I recall one review mentioning which I can say is spot-on.      » READ MORE

These are the best headphones I ever heard. They give an amazing ¨front row¨ sound, the highs are crisp, the bass is round and deep. If you have a good amplifier or a decent sound card, you can not be disappointed with these. Audiophiles might consider getting a balanced and bigger cable, along with a balanced headphone amplifier to deliver a better sound quality and increase the already wonderful listening experience you get with these. Sennheiser quality and reliability standard is evidently present.      » READ MORE

These cans are great. They have a forward aggressive sound to them. If you've never spent over $100 on a pair of headphones, then these would be a good place to start. They're comfortable and very very clean sounding. Keep in mind they are open cans, so they bleed lots of sound out, so if you're planning on using these for LAN parties, then you might want to reconsider. (DT770s would be my recommendation there).       » READ MORE

I'm not really an audiophile, but after using these cans I've realised how much I've been missing from my favourite music, games, and movies. These work excellent with an X-Fi soundcard and provide surround sound and awesome base response. Perfect for movies, games (especially Battlefield 2142) or taking advantage of the superior sound of an X-fi, you'll never believe your ears if you haven't tried a Hi-Fi pair of cans before. You might want to get a headphone amplifier to get full volume since these have a high resistance (I use a portable amp with the X-Fi, and also with my Creative Zen).      » READ MORE

Simply the best sound I have heard in a headphone for a very long time. The sound stays true to the original output, and is a dream to listen to. You will notice immediately when you first put them on that it was well worth the price. Lightweight and comfortable to wear, you won't put these down.      » READ MORE
