  • I wish I had understood this earlier.
Style: HD 599
Analog signal is superior to anything else. I wish someone had told me this earlier. I'm just becoming a true audiophile and these are the gateway drug. I spent 400 on Sony WXM1000h which I thought would be the best possible sound, and I think they are for bluetooth headphones, but they use software and computer chips to place the sound dimensionally. These are half the price and the sound is a freaking miracle. I feel like I am in a space and all of the tones and instruments have their own position. I can direct my attention to them individually. I can hear crazy detail in records I've listened to a million times. Someone laughing in the recording booth and they left it in for some reason, really astonishing detail. I guess this is called the "stage" which people say is narrow for this model. I don't really understand that but it's just beautiful. I guess everything is spatial but the space is a smaller than a concert hall. If you are like me and always wanted audio experience but are too into cell phones and so think bluetooth and other technology matter, take the leap and buy this. It is life changing. I got a shitty set of bluetooth headphones as well just in order to make hands free phone calls. ditch the tech and get what you really want! *sound is neutral - this means you get the true presentation of the music, not distorted at all *open ear means people sitting next to you can also hear the music even though it is quiet- maybe not great for an office or shared space *no noise cancelling means you can still hear sounds through the phones. I haven't tried these on an airplane but I bet they wouldn't muffle the noise at all. this is on purpose to achieve neutral / spatial sound. *these are huge and don't fold. I don't think I will travel with them, because I don't want to risk breaking them. this could be a plus I think, since every pair of nice headphones I've ever owned have ended up breaking on the hinge. No hinge means they are sturdier. *these are the most light and comfortable headphones I've ever owned. They aren't sweaty or constrictive at all and you can wear them for hours. the ear cups are super soft. some bad reviews are saying they feel flimsy but they are designed to be light and the open design lets in normal air circulation. *No MIC you can't make phone calls. Hey do yourself a favor and take a break from your phone to enjoy your music! I think of this kind of like a fixed - gear bike. if you get rid of all the gears the chain is shorter and the whole mechanism works more effectively and you get more power for your pedalling. If you strip away all of the options you are used to having with headphones and just focus on the quality of sound you will end up with these headphones. They are the lowest priced product in the audiophile category and the sound is life changing if you've never experienced it before. The sound is light years beyond anything digital or bluetooth can deliver. You probably won't wear them out of the house but so what. Don't be tricked into 500 dollar bluetooth headphones, just get these for music and some cheaper bluetooth headphones for hands free calls and you will end up with the same price tag and way more enjoyment. TLDR: If you are considering 500 dollar bluetooth headphones because you love music, get these and a pair of cheap bluetooth headphones instead. ... show more

  • For $89 They Are Well Worth it.
Style: HD 599 SE
These sound good out of the box and EQ nicely to sound very good. They are not going to put out planar quality sound no matter how much you EQ but for dynamic drivers they sound good. Extremely easy to drive with phone or laptop 3.5mm jack. They are very comfortable and build quality is good for $89 headphones. For $89 I just can't complain. If I paid $200 then I would definitely be a lot more critical because for $350 you can get planar's that are on another level than these and most dynamic driver headphones. ... show more

  • The best
Style: HD 599 SE
I used to be an iem user but recently started having ear issues due to them so I decided to switch back to headsets. Honestly I didn't want a "gaming" headset cause the audio is usually bad. Sound quality of these is so perfect it's crazy. They are super durable and don't feel like they'll break. For the money there have been really nice and comfortable. They are a nice size that cup over your ears instead of resting on them. If your thinking about getting these I honestly say go for it. Best bang for the buck I've ever had. ... show more

  • Good Headphones
Style: HD 599
After doing a lot of research on this model I finally decided to get it. Now to clear this up, these headphones are always on sell nowadays and you can see that on CamelCamelCamel. I think what happened is that since these are a pretty old model compared to their newer ones plus this version special edition out as well the sellers decided the price needed to be lowered. So instead of lowering the main price they just put it on forever sell to increase the buyers into thinking they are saving money. Now I got this for 115 dollars so it isn't the worst price for this headphone. The audio is good, so you don’t have to worry about it being meh for the price. Now there isn’t any 7.1 surround sound and you get the basic sound. The good thing is that basic sound is more finely tuned so if you are doing sound editing or music writing these may be what you are looking for. The design isn’t really anything special on the looks. But they did put in effort in how the joints work in order to reduce the stress of every joint. My last pair only had one joint and after a year of use the stress broke the plastic casing. With this one you have three joints (the last one is the bending of the band on top of the head) that help keep the stress down to keep these in good shape even with long term usage. The cables they include are very handy. You get two kinds, one for the standard 3.5mm jack and another for the 6.3mm jack plus a conventional piece for 6.3mm to 3.5mm. If you want to use these for a podcast and still be able to hear everyone while having the 6.3mm jack for the rest of the podcast hardware, well, here you go. The jack port on the headset itself is the smaller jack of 1.2mm which still works very well while keeping the headphones slim. They are not that bulky or heavy so you don’t have to worry about any neck pain throughout the day. Comfort. I would say these are pretty comfortable so far. Using them for a week and my ears are not being pressed too hard, clipped, hair isn’t being caught in the joints, and haven’t had any sweating issues with the padding. I believe the makers have indeed made a very well headset in the idea of comfort. False Information on Amazon page. The 599 headphones do not require any batteries. I looked up and down on the headphones themselves, read the manual it came with, and looked directly at their site. These do not use batteries. These are not wireless headphones. Not even the SE ones are wireless and requiring batteries. Not sure who created that page but they must have mixed something from another headset. Do I recommend these? Yeah, the price isn’t bad for 115 dollars and these do have a place to be used. If you want to use these while in a very loud environment then I do not recommend these as it will not block any noise whatsoever. ... show more
