$200 for these gems!?
Ill keep it short and sweet, these are IT right here people. You only need an AMP but i recommend getting a DAC as well for these puppies. For $200 these are a STEAL, the level of clarity in all the ranges are 10 fold better then any headphone I've ever owned (Steel series, JBL, etc). (Currently running a Monolith Liquid Spark AMP and a Schiit Modi 3 DAC) With the Liquid Spark the bass is so warm and inviting but not overtaking, the mids and highs still punch their way through very nicely. I hear NO static or weird issues with the drivers, these are some quality headphones and they are going to sell like mad. The comfort level is on par with any of the most expensive headphones, the padding is VERY plush and soft and sits comfortably on my head all day. The clamping force is in between medium and high, its a good in- between. The only 2 downsides i can really see with these atm is the headphone's overall are made out of plastic(quality plastic, but plastic non the less, and it feels like it.) They don't feel the up most durable but they are not flimsy what so ever, Sennhieser doesn't make crap. The high range can sometimes feel a little overwhelming and loud at times, but not enough to be a turn off.

Most comfortable over ear headphones ever.
Light weight, extremely comfortable, no perspiration on ears with open rear design, no distortion or too much bass, 7' power cord for easy use on most systems. Did require a JM6 Portable Amplifier Adaptor to obtain desired volume level when arrached to my Samsung Fold. Loved it enough to buy a second HD 560S for my wife, who is equally pleased with her Sennheiser. Only negative is it requires a larger storage case since the ear phones do not fold for storage.

Gaming Audiophile Headset
Excellent Gaming Open Back (think Transparency mode on Airpods / no noise cancelling you can hear everything outside the headset) Gaming and Media consumption for the price, it is definetly worth it. Quality plastic with an aluminum band, there is no swivel join so you cant accidently break it by trying to turn the earpiece the wrong way because if you did you'd be breaking it. Comfortable over long periods of time. May get alittle warm during the summer but the light design leaves very little fatigue and the open backed nature means there is no heavy foam or materials adding to the weight on your head. The band is ok on an average sized head, no heavy clamping force. Compared to other headsets I have used, it is very similar to the HyperX Cloud 2 but definetly lighter but has no noise cancelling. A great upgrade for audio quality especially if you use a DAC as it has a Screw on 1/4mm jack.
