    Switched to these after using a pair Airpods Max, and added a Sound Blaster AE-5 Plus. Set my sound to Direct Mode, and it's a new world of sound for my games and music. I highly recommend these, definitely worth the money.

    Comfortable, clear sounding headphones. I bought these for general computer use and gaming, they perform great. I would recommend these headphones for FPS gaming.

    Greatness beyond measure for the price this blows the competition out of the water. Better cans will run you 4 figures. These maintain crystal clear quality throughout its output range even at very high volumes. I have tested several including the beyerdynamic dt series and they just didnt compare. The sennheisers have a beautiful sound signature; punchy bass that does sound mudded in addition to the fact that it doesn't overpower the other sounds. Soundstage is amazing; so much so that I use these for competitive gaming as well. *Disclaimer I'm running these with a fiio k5 pro dac amp and an equalizer (Boom audio). For you to get the most of these headphones I recommend you run them with a stack (dac and amp) or all in one solution like I have.

    Happy with it. My first real headphone buy after buying bluetooth type headphones. Big jump up in sound quality. Very clear and crisp and good clean bass. I can't really compare to much but it's comfortable and easy to drive with my schiit magni 3+. Works pretty good on my pixel 4a too.

    Sennheiser once again showing the things they are capable, never fails to disappoint. They deliver in in amazing stereo imaging and a nice not too open Soundstage. But also a nice flat frequency response that delivers Clean Bass that even though not the best for applications of EDM. becomes really nice for Competitive Shooters and Detail pick up for analytical usage because of the bump up in treble also. It does take some time to get used to them. But once the clamping force goes away. And when your ears burn in to the FR of the HD 560S’s they truly become something that you find yourself coming back too.

    Honestly the quality of the audio on these are really good. I was just looking for some headphones to use to hear my editing a bit better and to make sure the adult is good but this is awesome.

    I am primarily interested in the clarity of the directional sound that these have for gaming purposes and they clearly and accurately reproduce footsteps or projectile movement/impact. Great for gaming. Musically they are pretty nice as well. Some finer details that get lost in cheaper headsets are noticeable on this pair. I also got a phenomenal price open box.

    Great neutral sound and very comfortable cups. The headphones feel light and don’t clamp hard after long term use, and the soundstage is great.

    Got these for my boyfriend for Christmas and he said they’re the best headphones he has ever used! He’s a videographer and is particular about how they feel and work since he’s wearing them all day editing. Big fan!

    Been using it for a couple of weeks now and audio is very nice. Haven't even used to the maximum potential with an equalizer of dac/amp, but it is still very good for gaming and listening to music. Clamp force is tight when first using it but loosens up over a couple of days and stays comfortably tight afterwards.

    Great sound quality! I can hear what I need to with my hf radio needs. Music is amazing as well. Being open back I can still hear if someone talk to me so I'm not startled. Seem to have a high build quality.

    I ended up returning these because I could not get them to be comfortable enough for longer than a 45 minute to 1 hours session. The clamp force and my glasses on my big noggin don't make for a good fit. So if you have a big head, maybe look at something else. That being said, these sound really good. Some of the best headphones I've ever heard. These are flat, like flat flat. The soundstage and imaging are on point, they got some sparkle in the highs and the mids are classic Sennheiser but not quite as forward as the HD58X and the like. The bass is pretty light in these and it doesn't respond well to bass tuning but these are still really good headphones.

    Pricey but worth it. The audio, comfort and clarity is top notch but Sennheiser is known for this. The only real complaint, but I knew this, being not an anc headphones, there is more outside sound than expected. Thinking over the ears would help reduce that, but loud environment will cause a disturbance. Maybe if it's my head, but I think if I had a better seal, I might hear as much exterior noise. All in all, great headphones

    Phenomenal For Gaming

    I use these headphones every day. I use them for playing games, this is one of the best pairs of headphones I have ever had when it comes to surround sound and sound clarity. If not THE best. The quality is out of this world. I play siege and cod and any FPS you can think of as well as story based and cinematic games. Blows every headset I have ever gotten out of the water. Including my astro a-40s and 50s. hyper x cloud II's and the Logitech G pro x2 lightspeed. There is no built in mic, but I just use a stand mic.
