About this deal

A Sennheiser HD 559 a vonzó, modern dizájnjával és levehető, 6,3 mm-es csatlakozóval ellátott 3 m-es kábelével remekül passzol a tartalmas mindennapjaidhoz és otthoni szórakoztató rendszereidhez. In addition to feeling more secure than those of the SR80e’s, they also have better sound isolation (as one might expect with an over-the-ear headphone). It should be noted that some instruments can seem a bit harsh in the upper register, especially with lower quality amps or digital music files. The 10 ft (3 m) headphone cable is thick and durable, but the connection is a 1/4’’ stereo plug – and there is no adapter to be found in the box.

Osnovni model u novoj HD seriji izveden je u otvorenom dizajnu i idealan je za korisnike koji traže optimalan zvuk u kućnim uslovima. You can listen on the HD 6XX for fun as well, but its studio-style sound will be notably more subdued in the low frequencies, even though both headsets have a sub-bass roll-off. Surely, it excels when it comes to rock and hip hop, but may skimp on classical or some more intricate instrumental tracks. Therefore, these headphones are better for folks listening to acoustic music such as folk, jazz, Bluegrass, or any vocal centric music that don’t rely on low-end for emotional impact. The Sennheiser HD 559 ear pads are over-sized and covered in a soft velour fabric that gently rests around the entire ear.Even though both headphones are built mainly of plastic, the ear pads have more give on the HD 599 with a lighter clamping force. It can be hard to find headphones that add bass to music without entering skull-shaking territory, but not anymore. Powered by Sennheiser proprietary transducer technology, these comfortable and attractively designed headphones are the key to unlock the true potential of your home entertainment system. Said to myself to give it some time to break-in and see if there was a difference after a couple of days. Aiding in a comfortable fit, each headphone swivels slightly on horizontal and vertical planes, but does not fold.

The HD 599 is made mainly of plastic and sports removable velour ear pads with 70mm x 45mm clearance for your ears. Next day, after cleaning the headband and pads a bit, I decided to give it a listen on one of my cassette walkmans. While I can't tell if the smoothness I'm hearing in some recordings is just because these headphones are forgiving or if the dac truly makes the difference, I can say that the HD 559 does pick up the improved sound of cymbals that the multibit dac provides. It is not objectively the most accurate, or the most consumer-focused set of cans, but it has a specific high bass and midrange emphasis that can appeal to some people looking for that sound quality.As I mentioned above, I spent many years away from my head-fi rig, and over that time I must have lost some of my discerning ear. For the money, it's definetely worth getting this pair if you never had an open-back before, it's a very good starting point in this regard. Available in a divisive pearlescent ivory and brown colorway, the Sennheiser HD 599 suggests a retro-futuristic vibe. The SR80e has a smaller, circular earcup with a metal grill, leaving the innards of the headphone visible and open.

as real users, posing a threat to a site’s security, so the site sometimes runs random security checks. Another thing I immediately noticed was it sounded kind of muffled, like vocals were recessed from the rest of the spectrum. They listen to nine recordings for each pair of headphones, which cover a wide range of music and radio genres, giving a rating per recording and an overall verdict (not an average).However, it regains some of its energy down there by a boost in the low-mids, where bass guitars love to bump. I would not hesitate to recommend the HD 599 for pop music fans, except for fans of Beats-style headphones or folks who want very neutral headphones.
