Review: Simply wonderful - Bought these for critical listening and mixing. And they do an *excellent* job. For once, I think the "reference grade' soubriquet is justifiable. There's minimal attempt to enhance high and low frequencies here. You'll hear things in your favourite albums that you never noticed before. For a home studio enthusiast, they're perfect. Sure, they're mostly plastic, but in a typical home studio you can get away with that. They're not likely to get thrown around and abused. And the flip side of that is that they're very light and comfortable. A bit of a tight clamping force but this seemed to subside after a week or so. The nominal impedance of 120Ω - quite a bit higher than most consumer-grade headphones - means that you might find them a bit quieter than other headphones you've heard, but it's also rather unlikely that you'll experience sound colouration from higher-impedance outputs. Just turn the volume up a bit. I've had no problems whatsoever driving them plenty loud enough from any devices from audio interfaces to iPhones. For the current price of around £90, buying these is simply a no-brainer. You'll be glad you did. Solid five stars, no question.
Review: Sennheiser HD560S — Incredible Detail, Comfort, and Perfect With the Moondrop Dawn Pro 2 - The Sennheiser HD560S has quickly become my favourite pair of open‑back headphones. The sound is incredibly clean and detailed, with a wide, natural soundstage that makes everything from music to gaming feel more immersive. The mids are crystal clear, the treble is smooth without being harsh, and the bass is tight and accurate rather than bloated. Comfort is excellent — the headphones are lightweight, the pads are soft, and I can wear them for hours without any pressure or fatigue. Build quality feels solid and reliable, exactly what you’d expect from Sennheiser. What really takes these headphones to the next level is pairing them with the Moondrop Dawn Pro 2. The Dawn Pro 2 drives the HD560S effortlessly and brings out even more clarity and separation. Bass becomes more controlled, vocals sound more lifelike, and the overall presentation feels more open and dynamic. It’s a perfect match if you want to get the absolute best out of the HD560S. If you’re looking for a neutral, detailed, and extremely comfortable headphone — especially when paired with a good DAC like the Moondrop Dawn Pro 2 — the HD560S is an outstanding choice. Coming from the arctis nova pro and the corsair wireless max. The sennheiser's feel so much better, even though they are the cheaper ones. For competitive games like Apex, Valorant, CSGO, Overwatch or any title where sound is crucial. These headphones are a beast.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do these compare to the 58x and 6xx?**
A: I have all three.
The HD 6XX has the highest technical performance out of all three, and has the best dampening and least distortion. It’s tuning came from the studio-monitor like HD 600 sound, but the treble was intentionally reduced a bit so that mixing professionals or music enthusiasts could listen for hours and hours with less fatigue, and there’s just a bit more midbass to sound more like a home speaker system. So it has less sensation of “air,” but the drivers are quite articulate and detailed, also most people’s brains acclimate to the sound quickly so it sounds “normal” and pros can make mixing decisions based off it. The HD 6XX is a visual variant of the HD 650, and overall it is one of the most common HiFi headphones ever and a good reference point that has been compared to pretty much everything else. If I could describe the HD 6XX in one word, it would be “beguiling.”

The HD 560S is close behind the HD 650 in technicalities, with almost as much detail, and very low distortion. The HD 560S’ slightly smaller driver is also more efficient and needs less power to sound good, though the 120 Ω impedance is like a sweet spot that helps with some dampening and stability in amplifier operation, while being a bit less impedance than the 300 Ω HD 6XX. The longer, 1/4” terminated cable is great for listening to a TV or turntable while you sit in a comfy chair, but it also includes the best kind of 1/4” to 3.5mm adapter to prevent damage to your equipment. Things get interesting when you consider the HD 560S’ driver is set at a 9° angle, meant to interact with your outer ear more, and also the HD 560S has more treble “air” than the HD 6XX, so it’s easier to hear positional directions and recording venue acoustics... the HD 560S has better soundstage than the other two. Overall, the HD 560S is tuned closer to a studio monitor speaker, and maintains its deepest sub bass more than the other two, but has also the most linear sound... it sounds the most “reference” like a studio monitor speaker.

The HD 58X has an enclosure and flat-angle like the HD 6XX, and a driver size and impedance like the HD 560S, but it is the most “fun” sounding of the three, also the least expensive. A short cable, efficient to drive, more bass and treble to excite you, the HD 58X is lively and ready to immediately bring you a lot of fun. In one word, I think the HD 58X is “Perky!”

YMMV, hopefully from my description you can decide which appeals to you the most. I know it’s tough since they’re all between $180 and $220. Personally, I’ve been using the HD 560S the most lately, but it’s also the newest, so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

**Q: How much do they weigh? How long can you wear these before getting a hotspot on your head?**
A: Without cable, they weigh only 240g.
That is unusually light for a full sized over ear headphone. To further prevent a hot spot from forming at the usual spot at the top of your head, the HD 560S have a gap where the headband doesn’t touch the top of your head, instead distributing the weight to the sides and some to the earcup clamp. The clamp is snug... you won’t exactly forget that they’re there, but they won’t slip around, and the padding is pretty soft. I will literally wear these all day for 8 hours or so, though I give my ears a break from sound every hour or so (that’s just good hearing health!).

**Q: Can I plug these into my phone and get good sound? If not, how is it for Xbox gaming?**
A: These are efficient: you will get good volume out of most sources. Yes, you can use them out of an Xbox console controller.

However, the HD 560S are also high quality. You will be able to hear how much better an iPhone dongle can drive headphones than an Xbox controller. Also, the HD 560S stock cable is very long, with a 1/4” plug and a (very good) 1/4” to 3.5mm mini plug ponytail adapter.

Xbox controllers are limited... out of their $60 or so purchase cost, most of the parts cost goes to the button input electronics and wireless transmission, with only a tiny fraction going towards audio parts. Also, wireless requires some audio compression. Lastly, very little battery power is spared to power headphones.

In summary, yes you can use it with an Xbox controller out of the box, but you will have a much better experience if you use the HD 560S’ long cable to your benefit and plug it into your TV or AVR/receiver instead.

**Q: What country are these made in?**
A: They’re an international headphone, haha. The transducers (aka drivers or headphone speakers) are made in Sennheiser’s exclusive Ireland factory, pads are from Germany, enclosure and final assembly is in China. They are triple-checked for QC throughout production and just before being packaged for retail and shipping.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow. Amazing sound, but read this BEFORE you buy! (No audiophile jargon)
*by J***I on 26 June 2026*

I’m not an audio engineer, and I don't know what "imaging" or "linear frequency response" means in the real world. I just wanted a great pair of wired headphones for listening to music, watching movies, and casual gaming at my desk without spending a fortune. After using the HD 560S for over 6 months, here is an honest breakdown. The Sound (The Good Stuff) If you are coming from cheap earbuds or standard Bluetooth headphones, these will blow your mind. The Clarity: You will hear things in your favorite songs you literally never knew were there. Background acoustic guitars, subtle breaths from the singer, or a random triangle in the back—sound great. The "Space": Because these are "open-back" headphones, the sound doesn't feel trapped inside your skull. It feels like the band is playing in the room right in front of you. A slight, expected negative....As they are open-back, they leak sound: The outside of the earcups is literally a metal mesh grille. If you turn the volume up, the person sitting next to you can hear your music clear as day. They don't block noise: You can hear everything happening around you. If your roommate is vacuuming, you will hear it. Do not buy these for commuting, noisy offices, or library sessions. These are strictly for a quiet room at home. Gaming & Movies: Absolutely incredible. Because the sound feels so wide, playing games like Call of Duty or Valorant, CS2 feels like a cheat code. You can pinpoint exactly which direction footsteps are coming from. Movies sound cinematic and grand. Build & Comfort Feel: To be honest, they feel a bit like cheap plastic out of the box. They aren't luxury leather, but they are incredibly lightweight. Fit: The ear pads are a nice, soft velour material. The clamping force is a little tight at first (it squeezed my head a bit), but it loosens up after about a week of use. Now, I can wear them for a 4-hour gaming session with my glasses on and totally forget they are there. 🔌 Do you need a special amplifier (Amp)? The short answer is No! They plug right into my PC motherboard and my laptop, and they get plenty loud. You don't need to spend extra money on fancy audio equipment to enjoy these. (Note: The cable it comes with is a bit long, which can be a plus or a negative). The long answer is, they do sound louder, (if that's what you're looking for) with a DAC/amp, As a sidenote, If you are listening on a PC, I recommend getting a free software equalizer such as Equalizer APO and pair it with the Peace Equalizer. These both help fine tune the sound on the headphones to get exactly the right listening experience from your headphones.
