Sennheiser Professional HD 280 PRO Over-Ear Monitoring Headphones

Noice cancellation

I cant believe I paid $85 for this. In the past Sennheiser has always made me happy with their headphones and this was a surprise. It sounds like a $20 cheap headphones - no depth of sound or treble. The only good thing is the passive nose cancelling that was useful on flights.

I purchased these headphones primarily for use while practicing with my bass guitar. I had reservations as to whether these headphones could handle the low frequencies that my bass produced without distortion, and I must say I was pleasantly suprised. I am also satisfied by the sound isolation that the earpieces provide. The headset remains comfortable during longer sessions, and they reproduce audio flawlessly when listening to recorded music.

A buddy of mine is an audiophile who has his own music studio. When I asked him what my next pair of headphones should be, he stood behind these claiming theyre his favorite. The coiled headphone cable allows me some movement around my work area while preventing the cord from getting crushed by my roller chair. I like that there is not an inline volume control. Those tend to be very jumpy and of low quality. Plus, it makes for just one more unnecessary volume control.

The sound is amazing! I already love these and its been about 10 minutes. I used to own some Audio Technicas which had great sound too, but the ear pads started to peel after about a year so Im not sure how these will hold up but so far the sound on these is superb. Also, the fit is perfect.

Forget sony, skullcandy, bose, and whatever other headphones the kids at best buy are trying to get you to buy. These are BETTER for CHEAPER. Full, clear, engaging sound quality. I have listened to most of my CD collection again and its like hearing them for the first time! Theyre THAT good. Crazy good sound quality for a not so crazy price. (Crap Bose are around $[...]) Save some money and do your ears a favor and get these!

Now these are great headphones in where its sort of what I was looking for, I wanted headphones for my big head and around my ears, you do have to adjust them everything so they wont bug you if you have a large head, audio wise they do what they are meant for as in NOT FOR WATCHING MOVIES (using adapters such as Xbox one), they are ok for gaming and music but their target audience is for studio work, if you want these for watching movies and enjoyment then look some where else honestly (unless on pc with a good set up), not saying they are bad for it just you can find better for cheaper for that specific things, they dont bother me since I use them on my pic strictly, tried them on my Xbox one controller adapter and not that great compared to some gaming ones I got for them

I have a relatively big head, and those headphones were a horrible fit, very tight and uncomfortable.

Very comfy even when on all night

I like how I can experience music like Ive never done before.
