Quite possibly the most legendary headphones of all time, the Sennheiser HD600 have a reputation for being among the best reasonably priced headphones on the market.

As with many standout audio products, these headphones get the midrange right which is where the real heart of the music is. They are well balanced and smooth sounding which will allow you to listen for hours on end without fatigue. And once the headband breaks in and forms to your head they are about as comfortable as headphones get.

These are open back headphones, note there will be some bleeding of sound both in and out so these are designed more for personal listening. The big advantage to open back is the sound is much more spacious which gives you a similar effect to listening to speakers in a room.

These will play with virtually any headphone output but note to get the best out of them they will shine with a more powerful headphone amplifier.
