I have had these for 3 years now in daily use. No problems so far and they work well in both music listening and competitive fps gaming.

It has been verified that they are the HD650. I ordered a set, I kind of missed my HD600, but these with a nice headphone amp and DAC are one of those cans that makes you want to listen ALL DAY.

It could be because he just regurgitates review specs and buzzwords, doesn't talk about the *actual* downside to products (for instance the fact that these in comparison to the HD650's have a significantly reduced build quality, coming from massdrop and being almost entirely plastic.) , and spreads misinformation (HD6xx ARE NOT EVEN CLOSE TO UNPARALLELED FOR GAMING, WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT) leading people to buy products they ultimately end up disliking. He is not honest with people and makes a pretty penny off of those who use the links he provides. Every review for open backed headphones has been about the same. Always the same con of 'these are open backed, people will hear what you're listening to'. No shit, sherlock. Got any other cons or are these just about perfect? Just about perfect? Awesome...Do not be mislead, this is just a product ad disguised as an unbiased review. He'll say that the only reason I feel this way is because I disagree with his opinion. Let me say this, if the opinion you give is your honest one, stop reviewing headphones, possibly stop reviews in general, because damn, what an incomplete, and poorly communicated opinion you give. Maybe focus less on the production value and more on being honest with your subscribers

Your reviews are getting better! In your last review I watched, I didn't like it because you didn't really mention any negatives, and everything sounded very generic. This one was better, although you could mention the so-called sennheiser veil for some bonus points for having those extra special details . Lastly, I loved the b-roll, very visually appealing. I think your reviews are great for new audiophiles who probably wouldn't understand the jargon from a detailed head-fi review or something.

What you're implying is kind of contradicting. The more people review them and say they are great, lesser the chance that they're actually shit. Because Sennheiser can't promote all youtubers, if only a few said they were great than the chances of being sponsered would be way higher. These are btw a massdrop, not retail price, and sponsering this massdrop to create lots of hype is a worse marketting scheme than sponsering retail headphones as much, because they are worse price/quality.

I joined the drop, but they ship in 4 months!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why!!!!!!!!????????? Also, I hope the cable length is actually 6 feet. I also will basically only use these at my desktop and my bed is right next to it, so I want it to reach my bed and when I'm sitting at my desk. I also need to get a amp, the FiiO E10k I bought for my broken and returned HE400I will not be enough. I want to get an amp and use the E10k as a dac, but I also have a Xonar DGX soundcard but am not sure if that will work well enough as a dac. Been looking into the Schiit Magni 3 or the Objective 2 or the monoprice amp/dac if I just want to replace the E10k completely and sell it. For neutrality I'm leaning towards the O2, but the Magni 3 has more inputs so I would maybe be able to connect my desktop speakers and my dac as well as my headphones if I get it. If I can just connect the speakers to the dac I guess it wouldn't matter either way. I have ever owned a dac/amp combo, so have some simple questions. If I have the e10k do I then connect that to the linein or rca ports on the amp? If so, the O2 on massdrop is rca only, will I be able to buy a male single rca to dual male rca cable to connect the single coaxial out on the e10k to the dual rca on the amp? Or will I need a different cable or a line in to rca cable/adapter. Also, the connection order is amp to dac to pc? Meaning the dac is the bridge between the amp and the PC? Sorry for all the questions, I just want to get the max enjoyment out of the HD6XX(without spending more than what I spent on them on an amp/or dac).

The HD6XX have a significantly smaller soundstage (some consider it more natural), are tonally better balanced, overall more resolving and they scale better when upgrading the source equipment (amplification, DACs, etc). Comfort depends on the shape of your head, but both are very comfortable (usually the K7XX has a small edge on comfort).

Hi guys I’m wondering if I should the HD6XX or the HD58’s with a modmic or something. Because what I was originally going to do was get Sennheiser GAME ZERO heedsets with a Mayflower Arc amp/dac. Also I really only game on my pc so I don’t really listen to music Often, well I do, but I’m not a audiophile or anything. And the other thing is I want to get into DCS world and I basically need a trackIR for that and the current headsets I’m using right now are the corsair void pro wireless which aren’t that good and they fall off my head easily just by looking down, left and right. The reason I’m here is because I really don’t know too much about headphones/headsets and I’m so overwhelmed by all the choices and I want to make a one time purchase because I wasted 80 dollars on those crappy void pro’s when I should of done my research in the first place. Thanks for reading

Asking kind of late, but anyone here knows if 6xx/650 combo with GSX 1000 amp would be better than 598 se with the same amp? Adding modmic to that, I'd use it both for gaming and listening to music.

Cho Lin Just get the 650's. Or get the Fidelio X2's, they are more fun and better build quality too. Combine that with a regular 3,5 headphone jack input so you can use a V-Moda BoomPro mic. But now suddenly everyone thinks the 650's sound terrific which they do, dont get me wrong, but these reviews is just ass licking.

These have a significantly smaller soundstage, but are tonally better balanced, overall more resolving and they scale better when upgrading the source equipment (amplification, DACs, etc). Comfort depends on the shape of your head, but both are very comfortable (usually the K7XX has a small edge on comfort).
