I used them to mix as a dj excellent overall
These are excellent overall, they have a very long interchangeable cable that is ideal for djing with. The sound is wide, clear and not too bass heavy, I have found it is possible to over power the drivers if pushed too hard but I don't think this is a failing of the headphones but the ability of my gear to put out high levels. Overall a great set of headphones that fit people with larger heads and can be used for reference and studio work. Update JAN 2023 These are still going strong and have become my go to headphones, as someone that uses headphones for extended periods be it for mixing or mastering I have totally fallen in love with these. I've had HD 25 pros and most of the other DJ headphones on the market but none do the job as well as these can do both mastering and DJing. The interchangeable cables are handy as the long version is the 6.8mm and the short is 3.5 mm ( I have since bought a curly 6.8mm for DJing so I do tread on the longer wire ) the ear cups do offer very good isolation and this is what pushes them above the HD25's aswell as the larger size. Overall after nearly a years use they are as responsive, clear and comfortable as the day I received them. Definitely my favourite cans May 2025 Still the Same Cans still well worth the money...... After 3 Years and thousands of hours use they are still going strong !!!! My only complaint is that they don't flex as much as I would like but they do keep their shape exceptionally well ! If you really want to spend loads on headphones then you can but these are without a doubt my work horse cans. I've bought them a carry case and a 2nd curly lead. No doubt the best bang for buck cans I've bought in the last 10 years

Perfect for my needs
First off, I bought these in the Amazon Prime Day sales for £70 which is a total bargain. I would not consider myself an audiophile and if you are then you will probably want to invest more money into your headphones but the quality on these should suit most people. Very clear sound and I've picked up sound that I've never heard before on tracks I listen to often. I found these when looking for open backed headphones, partly because I want to be aware of my surroundings when I'm wearing them and partly so they don't make my ears feel as hot as my older headphones. Another benefit was that they feel more like listening to speakers rather than just being blasted into my ears but that could be personal preference. The open backed nature does mean there is sound leakage, both for you hearing external sound but also others being able to hear your music, so that's something you will need to consider for your usage. Very comfortable to wear for longer periods of time partially due to being lightweight though maybe not as portable as folding headphones would be but I don't need that. Very easy to use, no controls on the headphones so controlled completely through whatever you plug them into. In the box you get a 1.2m cable with a 3.5mm jack plug and a 3m cable with a 6.3mm jack plug, however there is also a 6.3mm to 3.5mm adapter included so you can still use the longer cable with devices that have a 3.5mm socket. The adapter makes the plug quite long so maybe not a great solution if you intend to use it with a portable device like a phone. The leads have a twist and lock mechanism to secure them into the headphones which is fantastic but you will need to be aware of that if you intend to swap over to the 3m cable. Overall, with the considerations I've given above, I would fully recommend these headphones for people wanting wired open back headphones without paying hundreds of pounds. Especially great value if you can pick them up on sale.

Good at around £100 but not great compared to Bose in ear
I bought these Sennheiser HD 599 "ears" on a Black Friday deal for £99. The reason I bought them is, I damaged (but still working) wires on my +/- 15 year old Bose in ear headphones (wired with no noise cancelling), with the Bose replacement costing also around this mark. I thought I would give these over ear phones a go based on reviews, and to get even better sound. My review is a comparison to the Bose in ear phones. The type of music I listen to range from classical, pop, rock, heavy metal, country and well, any music I like. Mostly older songs, I am not into the modern manufactured repetitive boom-boom stuff although I do have very good rap and rave (type repetitive) songs. I use "ears" only for listening via an iPod and laptop, as my sound system has excellent Monitor Audio speakers. Quality and comfort. The Sennheiser HD 599s feel plasticky but do not let the put you off, I think it helps towards keeping the weight down. They are comfortable to wear for long listening sessions, a lot more comfortable than much cheaper ears I had in my younger days. The Bose (though very small) feels solid and as for wearing comfort, I do not know I have them on, that is how good they are. Sound. These two ears are different, it depends on what you like. When I first listened to the Sennheisers, I was disappointed, I expected more but now I'm (nearly) onboard. After about an hour, I swapped between the Bose and these, and realised why. They give a different experience. The Sennheisers give a smooth deep richer (not excessive) base sound, while still hearing everything. One way to put it is, the music is smeared all over your brain in smooth chocolate. Whereas the Bose, when I first put them on, they blew my mind, a WOW I did not expect that moment. They do not give as "rich" (base-y) sound as the Sennheisers but do not get me wrong, they give amazing base. It is just that they are not as smooth or deep as the Sennheisers. You do however hear where every instrument is placed and every note played, in detail. No smeared in relaxing dark chocolate here, the light is shone on every note. Which would I buy again. Tricky, it depends. Please do not get me wrong, these Sennheisers are very good and super comfortable and I am keeping them but, if the Bose and these are at the same price, for my taste and comfort, I will get the Bose. If the Sennheisers are full price at £170, it is Bose for me no question. It would have been interesting to compare a Bose over ear to the Sennheisers but that is for someone else.

Nach einem Jahr im Einsatz kann ich diesen Kopfhörern eine sehr gute Bewertung geben. Sie sind auch im Dauereinsatz sehr bequem zu tragen und zeichnen sich durch einen sehr guten Klang sowohl im Gaming als auch bei Musik und Filmen aus. Außerdem sind sie solide verarbeitet, auch wenn es bei dem Preis halt viel Plastik und keine Premiummaterialien sind. Dazu kann er auch ohne DAC sehr gut am Mainboard des PCs betrieben werden. Mit DAC sind die Kopfhörer fast ein wenig zu laut. Wer diesen Kopfhörer im Angebot kauft, der wird denke ich damit sehr glücklich werden.

No sé a que vienen las críticas negativas por parte de algunos clientes y usuarios de YouTube. Si lo que esperaban es el sonido de unos de gama alta, pues entonces no es para ellos. Tienen un sonido claro para no ser neutrales del todo no son para a los que les gustan unos fuertes graves o agudos a los que están acostumbrados de otras marcas que los exageran. Con este tipo de auriculares podrás escuchar matices que no habrás oído nunca, los cuáles están enmascarados. Yo poseo unos AKG K-240 MKII estudio también de sonido neutral (Sé que su precio es bastante inferior) Y aunque también reproducen muy bien el sonido tienen el problema de que por su impedancia 55 Ohms necesita un apoyo para que suenen con gran potencia, cosa que no ocurre con estos SENNHEISER HD 599SE con sus 50 ya se escuchan bastante fuertes. El AKG trabaja en unas frecuencias entre 15-25000 Hz y los SENNHEISER 12- 38500 Hz. Por la comodidad pues los dos son lo bastante cómodos ya que están construidos en materiales de plástico de calidad por lo que pesan poco AKG 240grs. SENNHEISER 250grm. El diseño de los SENNHEISER ayudan a que el sonido se envuelva y vaya más directo a los oídos. Los dos vienen con dos cables desmontables con diferentes tipos de jack aunque el AKG le conexión al mismo es con entrada mini XLR por lo que si en un futuro tienes algún problema es más difícil de encontrar. El SENNHEISER solo trae las almohadillas que vienen montadas en material aterciopelado muy buenas al tacto también te cubren las orejas en su totalidad tambiénayuda su diseño (Existe recambio). Los AKG traen dos tipos unos en piel sintética que ayudan a producir sudor y otras aterciopelada estas no cubren en totalidad las orejas por su diseño circular distintos a los SENNHEISER que son avaladas. Debemos de tener muy en cuenta que los dos son auriculares no cerrados por lo que sale sonido al exterior y también entra sonido también del exterior (Aconsejo utilizarlos en el interior) Por lo que ayudan a reducir la fatiga y se pueda estar más tiempo utilizándolos. Si puedes esperar a que Amazon tenga en oferta los SENNHEISER te saldrán algo más económicos que los AKG y en verdad os digo que merece la pena. Yo los he comprado a 79,99 € cuando su precio oscila en cualquier tienda a 170. Los AKG por su parte tienen un precio de 77 € Espero que mi reseña os ayuden.

Having owned the Sony WH1000XM6 and also the Sennheiser Momentum 4's, I can say these cans are superb! But that needs some explanation. There is no app (I'm aware of at least) for these, as with the Momentum 4's. They are not "fancy"- but are incredibly comfy! I wear 2 "behind the ear" hearing aids and often readers too and I can wear these all day. Because the pads are so large an d the way they are angled, means that for the FIRST time - ever - I can turn up my hearing aids without constant squealing in my ears! Is that extra volume impacting my sense of the sound? Probably. But that IS still the point because these are thus far - the only cans I am able to do this with. So, it IS the headphones. Then there is the mid-range clarity and highs - WOW! Out of the box these are not as "bass-forward" as the XM6's - but with either an EQ on your phone, tablet or external DAC, they can be, without being muddy or thumpy. I am running a $58 small AIYIMA DAC that sounds phenomenal with these cans. Listening to "No Easy Way Out" (Robert Tepper from "Rocky IV") sounds incredible! The opening bass/drum section sounds full, tight, dynamic. "Africa" and "Hold the Line" by Toto have never sounded better to my ears. The bass is full, warm and tight - and it can be adjusted more or less. Trebles have excellent clarity without being harsh. I got these on sale and unless the HD600 line *truly* blows these away - maybe so - why pay more? "I'm In A Hurry" by Alabama, it’s opening vocal intro sounds amazing. "500 Miles" by the Proclaimers when the bass and drum "kick in" (sorry), sound incredible! I can go on and on. "Everything I Do" by Bryan Adams or “God Bless the Broken Road" by Rascal Flatts sound pristine, clear, rich, balanced and nuanced...my favorite instrumental music with piano / cello and acoustic guitar sound remarkable. Even more so - to my surprise - on You Tube. Playing games on my PC is a new experience - especially in the ability to hear "directional" sounds etc. I have never heard the grunts in Halo Infinite as good as I do with these on...the XM6's have more "punch" in the sounds of guns, explosions, but don't have the clarity or directional element as these do. Having now experience this difference, I MUCH prefer it! Dolby Atmos tracks in Movies on Apple TV, Prime, Netflix sound detailed, rich, balanced, warm. These are my first experience in the "open back" headphone field and I can honestly say, I AM impressed! IF - just saying IF I return these, it will ONLY be to experience an even higher level of "audiophile" sound in the HD600 series. Seriously - if GOOD SOUND quality really matters to you at your desk, in your room, or office where you will not disturb others around you with the sound "bleed" that comes from the open backs, you owe it to yourself to try these! I prefer these in every way to my XM6's and paid approx 1/3rd the price for them! Sure, they do not have ANC - but who buys open back headphones for that feature?
