Customers are saying

Customers love the HD 560S Wired Open Aire Over-the-Ear Audiophile Headphones for their exceptional sound quality and comfortable design, making them suitable for extended listening. Many appreciate the lightweight feel and secure fit. However, some find the bass lacking and the cable length excessive, while others experience discomfort due to the clamping force.

    Great set of headphones, I wanted a simple headset for gaming to connect to my PS5 controller. I liked that I didn't need to charge the headset like most headphones now a days. The padding was very comfortable. It even comes with a jack adapter for other headphones plugs.

    I’ve always been a fan of Sennheisers and their headphones. The balanced profile that this headphone has allows it to be more versatile in terms of customizing an EQ to your liking. I do highly recommend getting a sound card to plug this into since it’s not that powerful but it’s great for the price!

    Great bang for the buck. Great build quality. Only drawback is the proprietary cable.

    By far my favorite headphones I’ve owned literally 20 different set wireless and wired these with a 2I2 as my amp and I can literally hear everything every foot step even when they are crouched down plus they are very comfortable

    Incredible for foot step audio in FPS games. Vastly superior to gaming headsets. EQ using APO/PEACE equilizer and enjoy. Tested Audio Technica, Beyer DT 990 and DT 900 Pro. These come recommended for a reason. Pair with Topping D3X Pro+ or SMSL C200 DAC/AMP.

    As close to neutral sonically as I need. Sonics are similar to my HD 580 but with more low end presence. Not as nuanced as my Drop HD 6xx but has better top end clarity. Sounds good straight out of my receiver's headphone out; no equalization needed. Band's a bit tight but should loosen over time. My new go-to cans.

    This is wothout a doubt the best headset i have ever used for gaming. The long earcups make this wearable for 6 plus hours and the open back design lets ke hear myself like i had mic monitoring on

    I've owned Sennheiser headphones since 1968, including the original open ear 414. For the money, the HD 560S is a steal. Better sound than my 598's with very similar housing. An excellent choice.

    I’m not an audiophile, but the sound quality from these has led me to pick up on new things in music I’ve been listening to for years. I now make it a point to relisten to my favorite tracks just to see what else I’ve been missing.

    Good sound. Compared sound quality with my present, and old, Bose noise cancellation headphones. The sound coming from my new Sennheiser-HD560S was comparable or maybe even superior, at half the price of a new Bose headset!

    The best headphones for the money

    Best headphones I've ever owned. They are simple. No software to get confused with or have to learn to benefit from it's just plug and play. And if you are trying to upgrade from a "gaming headset", you will be very satisfied with these. They are the same price as a high end gaming headset and leagues beyond what they are capable of.

    Can't go wrong with Sennheiser

    Sennheiser makes some of the best Audiophile headsets. Purchased these on recommendations that they do pretty well with spatial sounds and depth for FPS games. They do a very good job at telling enemy positioning and are very clear. There are more in depth review videos that confirm this, and are a top choice for many players

    Actually has solid directional sound , i came from arctis 7x which is about 40-50$ cheaper and the differnce in Escape from Tarkov is night and day. Louder more full audio plug and play etc… only downside is having to solve the microphone having used combo gaming headsets for a decade now.

    I use it for my Yamaha DGX 670 piano primarily and the sound is crystal clear. The bass is perfect, not too much and not too little. It feels cheap, but it doesn't perform like it at all. Seems like they choose the sound quality over the build quality and I'm 100% ok with that. Couldn't have gotten a better headset for my purpose for the money.

    I bought these for the hubby as a Christmas gift and he LOVES them!! He is a PC gamer and can’t stop talking about how clear the sound quality is and his friends have tried to get him to invest in them for years.
