HD 569

I really like these head phones they replace some 20 year old Sennheiser's and for a rare occasion I notice a more than marginal improvement in sound quality. The 'phones are well built ,strong and comfortable and don't get too hot. They exclude sound from the outside just as well as sound going out. They seem to have a flat response across the frequency range and a very good dynamic range just right for orchestral works. The bass is not exaggerated which I don't like anyway. i tested them on digital music files of jazz, acoustic folk, rock and classical music. I also tested music from YouTube and voice from the BBC: they performed very well. I compared a completely analogue(vinyl)recording against a so called" HIRES" digital equivalent to see if I could tell the difference. Th recording in question was a from " Chasing The Dragon" records where a vinyl record is rehearsed and performed live and mixed and cut directly to vinyl; no tape recorders involved. At the same time a 24/192 recording is made digitally. The work in question was Espana with two operatic arias from Bizets " Carmen" and two orchestral works from Chabrier and Rimsky Korsakov respectively. Rosie Middleton's rich and wonderful voice was reproduced almost perfectly on both the analogue and digital recordings. The orchestral works work were reproduced with wide dynamic range and the orchestra sounded just like an orchestra. Headphones reveal more detail then speakers and it proves to me once and for all that digital recordings are better for sound quality than their equivalent vinyl ones. But if you ignore the inevitable surface noise of an LP the analogue versions come very close to digital. When you consider that LPs were invented in 1948 it shows how far we have come regarding sound quality, which is what really matters. Whatever, the medium these 'phones make a very good account of themselves and the music and I recommend them thoroughly. Pity no case was supplied but what can you expect for a hundred quid or so. It's the sound quality that really matters.

I wanted a pair of over ear, closed back, not-noise-cancelling, wired headphones that didn't break the bank, and had been looking for ages. I was a bit reluctant to bite the bullet on these because they'd be replacing a pair of Sennheiser Momentum 2 which are, obviously, in a different league when it comes to build quality. (I'd bought the M2s second hand, would never have spent as much as they cost new.) These are excellent at the price, in my opinion. The sound is really good (bearing in mind I am no audiophile) and although the 'phones are heavy compared to the M2s , you don't notice when they're on. The padding under the headband and the ear pads themselves are made from velour, so very comfortable, and the era pads are larger than the M2 over-ear ones. My husband, who also has M2s - which he has never complained about - tried to persuade me to swap with him as he liked these so much! So all in all, I'm very pleased. The sound is at least as good as others I've tried in the round-about-£100-range; the build quality's good, and they're comfortable.

These are some really great headphones. For most music listening I use Sennheiser Momentum on-ear, which are still considered one of the best sounding headphones on the market. These headphones match the great sound of the momentum, if not excel it. The sound is extremely well balanced with great mid-frequencies, as well as clear highs and lows meaning they sound great for all types of music, especially classical which has a greater dynamic range than pop-music. This makes them especially great for me as a composer. I am also a gamer and have been using the Sennheiser Game Zero for some time. I can honestly say the sound quality of the HD 569 are is far better than the Game Zero... even though the HD569 is currently £20 on Amazon! They are almost entirely made of plastic, which is one small down-side but they feel very sturdy and have a good weight to them without being too heavy for long use. The exchangeable cables are a great option because it means they can be used for both MP3 players and pc's, and also higher-end hifi systems that use the larger 6.3mm plugs. All-round a great pair of headphones that has a wide range of uses. Update: 1. After using the headphones for a wider range of audio, I have noticed clipping and distortion at the higher frequency spectrum (Was watching a horror movie and screams, high strings etc where VERY distorted). This could cause a problem for a lot of people. 2. Inside each of the cups is a little triangular part that sticks out a little and I have started to notice that my ears touch these whenever I wear the headphones and it soon becomes very noticeable, making the headphones quite a bit less comfortable (I'd almost stretch to say they have become uncomfortable). I don't have particularly larger ears, nor do they stick out but I believe the main problem is the thin padding on the HD 569, which means after a bit of use (keeping in mind they've only been out a few days), the ear cup pads become very thin leaving little padding around the ears.

No complaints at all, a well designed piece of equipment, feels nice to wear - sounds nice

For the price these headphones are fine and the build quality it ok but, they feel abit plastically. The foam pads feel abit rubbery and have a smell like rubber when new, which is my main issue with them. The bass is great when you hear it but is weak mostly. They are comfortable for long listening and do block out some background sound. For me the weight is average and design is good especially resting your head against something as the outer case is relatively flat, pillow ect. Not sure I would buy again.

Excelentes audífonos para todo , jugar escuchar musica toooodo, en serio es otro nivel que no podras conseguir con diademas genéricas o de marcas "gaming" esta marca es conozida por su calidad y en estos audífonos se aprecia mucho, otra cosa por la que elegí este modelo es por que no necesitas de un dac amplificador para disfrutar plenamente de ellos, lo que si recomiendo estener un buen ecualizador para poder jugar entre los medios,altos y bajos, recomiendo la aplicación para pc llamada "Fxsound" aumenta la potencia y puedes ecualizar sin necesidad de comprar nada es muy buena opción , el tamaño para las orejas es perfecto ya que son grandes y cómodas. No tendrás ningun problema al usarlos con lentes aun así aislan muy bien el sonido. Sin duda los volveria a comprar

1. Extremely comfortable & replacble ear cups. 2. Good passive noise isolation for you & from you. 3. It's on heavier side, takes some time to get used to it. Feel free to ask me questions 🙂

Confort son équilibré, travaille mieux avec un dac

I have had these for a couple of years now and they are the best. - No EMF (no wireless technology) - Comfortable for long hours - Good audio - Cord can be replaced if needed Honestly, what more do you need in a headset? Note that these headphones allow quite a lot of audio from outside so if you need total quiet I recommend buying some second hand quietcomfort 25 (they are also wired and dont have bluetooth which is good)

O fone tem um isolamento bom do ruído externo. Indicou boa resposta em todas frequências, e detalhes sonoros. No receiver Denon mostrou melhor desempenho do que no laptop, ficou ao nivel de outros como Bose, Audio Research. O plugue se fixa no fone por meio de um encaixe, girando o plugue, impedindo que se solte, mas o plugue atrapalha um pouco, encosta no ombro ao girar a cabeça. Mas é confortável, e ótima resposta sonora. Vem com cabo 3 m com plugue 6.3mm ( receiver ) e outro de 1.2m ( curto ) com plugue 3,5mm para laptop ou celular. Até a embalagem vale ! Bem satisfeito !
