  1. ElPCQ

    Great entry level audiophile headphones for anyone wanting great sound/monitoring quality for a good price. I recommend these for anyone looking to “squeeze” most out of their music. My only gripe is the build quality (as you can tell by my bad puns) but it’s not all that bad to make it a deal-breaker for me; just be wary that it can be a little annoying after long 1+ hour listening periods if you got a big head like me lol.

    In conclusion, I feel the audio quality you get out of these heavily outweighs the ever-so-slight annoyance of these pinching your noggin a bit, (especially at the price) but if comfort is your make-or-break… You might wanna look elsewhere.

  2. Carson

    Great sounding headset! If you buy I would highly recommend an amp to use with it because of the high ohms or it will not sound like its supposed to.

  3. AbbieP

    Amazing headphones, great quality and comfortable.

  4. JoCar

    I like this headset overall, but using this with a DAC let this headset shine for me.

  5. Emmanuel

    Excellent headphones. Super comfortable. Worth the price

  6. vettesherps

    These are awesome headphones. I bought them to use as studio headphones to maintain and adjust the sound system for several musicians during jam sessions. The work great and are very comfortable.

  7. Jrs1

    Great sound very wide soundstage. Overall a somewhat neutral sound maybe slightly increased bass

  8. ThomasF

    They sound great, I use them everyday to play guitar.

  9. GuillermoM

    Don’t pay for anything more expensive, for gaming this is it

  10. AgustinS

    Never disappointed when it comes down to seinheiser. Really amazing brand.

  11. user523941

    Absolutely amazing headphones, the sound quality is excellent.

  12. Jeves8004

    the audio quality is wonderful, and the open aire nature allows me to hear things in the real world like knocking on my door or my phone! perfect for gaming in things like Escape from Tarkov, or dayz. or other sound dependent games. and wonderful for music quality.

  13. Goose

    I thought the adapter didn’t come with the headset at first, and it took me a while to realize that the adapter is already on. It’s a screw-on jack

    Other than the confusion, these are probably the best headphones I’ve ever had. Incredible sound quality and comfort, especially for the price.

  14. OmarV

    Love these headphones, the sound is amazing, they’re super comfortable and I can wear them for very long periods of time without any discomfort.

    I just yesterday found out the headphone Jack was removable , so that was a pleasant surprise

  15. headphonepawns

    Soild headphone for music and gaming. Soild comfort when wearing it but it can be a bit tight if one’s wearing glasses. Overall really soild headphones.

  16. Value

    Good sound. Compared sound quality with my present, and old, Bose noise cancellation headphones. The sound coming from my new Sennheiser-HD560S was comparable or maybe even superior, at half the price of a new Bose headset!

  17. AmyM

    very comfortable and good sound quality. Will probably need to stretch out the headphones a little but after that was super nice to use!

  18. Soundaudiophileakajb

    I really appreciate on the sounding of this product

  19. JA123

    Fantastic sound and comfort. Not noose cancelling, which is nice to have this option for the home

  20. MarcelloV

    absolutely perfect for what I need, they sound great. I use these on my computer.

  21. RickyB

    Great product. Our 14 year old wanted something better than the basic headphones and these really fit the bill. He was so excited to open these on Christmas morning.

  22. Splittzfam

    Brought for my son as a Christmas gift. He said it is Perfect, clear and sounds are exactly the way it should be. He’s very pleased!

  23. Puny

    Sound is great. I mainly use them for fps gaming like apex and overwatch. Dont need an amp but i use one cuz i already have one.

  24. WayneD

    Great for dj’ing plus reference sound, very lite, solid, I caught it at a fantastic price.

  25. WandaA

    It was a gift for my teenage son, he was very pleased with these headphones. He mainly uses them for gaming.

  26. NewYorkDebbie

    I have had the toughest time trying to get ear pods to stay in my ears. Finally, you offered a high quality solution! Thank you. The headphones are well made and work with my laptop for gaming.

  27. JamesR

    great headphones, would definitely recommend to anyone looking for wired headphones.

  28. Goober

    They sound great and of very good quality. Grandson lives them.

  29. DevilMayCry

    Great for fps gaming and analytical listening. My friend tried it once and get himself one when the sale goes back. Much better than those premium “gaming headset” cost same or more at gaming. Also ok to run without an amp if you don’t want to.

  30. Shayyy

    I bought these for the hubby as a Christmas gift and he LOVES them!! He is a PC gamer and can’t stop talking about how clear the sound quality is and his friends have tried to get him to invest in them for years.

  31. John

    I moved up from the Sennheiser 598’s and I’m glad I did. The 560S headphones sound perfect. Not so perfect is Best Buy. I took a chance buying open box rated excellent but instead of getting the 9.8 ft cord, I got the 6 ft cord instead. Besides sound quality, I purchased the 560S for the longer cord. Best Buy should not have allowed this to happen. It wasn’t worth saving $15 on the open box after having to spend $12 buying the longer cord from Geekria. Lesson learned, stick with only buying new from Best Buy.

  32. GageH

    I enjoy the sound quality I use a Scarlett 2i2 to drive them and turn up the bass using voice meter. First pair of open backs and senheisers. My Logitech pro xs are on the sidelines.

  33. LeighT

    Great product. Has good sound stage. Expected build quality from Sennheiser

  34. JasonD

    Excellent product! My son wanted this because of clarity of sound.

  35. Liam

    Absolutely love the sound of these, I’ve had these since March of 2023, reviewing in January of 2024. I have worn them almost every day since, and there are no signs of wear on the foam or headband. Love these.

  36. Dommy

    *Gaming review* – Unbelievable sound stage for directional awareness. I will never buy another gaming headset as long as these exist.

  37. yogidang

    Pricey but worth it. The audio, comfort and clarity is top notch but Sennheiser is known for this. The only real complaint, but I knew this, being not an anc headphones, there is more outside sound than expected. Thinking over the ears would help reduce that, but loud environment will cause a disturbance. Maybe if it’s my head, but I think if I had a better seal, I might hear as much exterior noise. All in all, great headphones

  38. AnthonyM

    Great sound for a reasonable price. Might buy another pair in the near future.

  39. RemoneG

    By far my favorite headphones I’ve owned literally 20 different set wireless and wired these with a 2I2 as my amp and I can literally hear everything every foot step even when they are crouched down plus they are very comfortable

  40. Lance

    Excellent headphones! Especially for the price. Best Buy had these on sale at a remarkable value for headphones of this magnitude. Comfortable as well

  41. GlendaG

    I would give this a 7 out of 5!! They are excellent!!

  42. ConnorJ

    I ended up returning these because I could not get them to be comfortable enough for longer than a 45 minute to 1 hours session. The clamp force and my glasses on my big noggin don’t make for a good fit. So if you have a big head, maybe look at something else.

    That being said, these sound really good. Some of the best headphones I’ve ever heard. These are flat, like flat flat. The soundstage and imaging are on point, they got some sparkle in the highs and the mids are classic Sennheiser but not quite as forward as the HD58X and the like. The bass is pretty light in these and it doesn’t respond well to bass tuning but these are still really good headphones.

  43. Postalman

    Like the way fit. Very nice fitting. Great sound. Got them to listen to my vinyl records.

  44. Mark

    Bought these to game with. Had Astro a40s and steel series move pro wireless.. these are exceptional for gaming and we won’t be going back. The weight disappears on your head and there is 0 fatigue even after a long 12 hour day wearing them. The sound stage is amazing, directional is better than any gaming set I’ve ever used.

  45. Ching684

    One of the best sounding headphones I’ve used so far because of the sound signature and I’ve always used gaming headphones mainly Astro A40/50. So when I picked this up on Black Friday deals it was a pleasant surprise to my ears. The sound stage was wider and imaging for COD which is what I mainly play was superb. The sound signature is pretty flat but that just means less base explosion in my ears and I could game longer without fatigue. But where it really shined for my is when I’m listening to HIFI music on Spotify. I got for about the same price as my Astro A40s so I was wondering why I never bought these instead all this time. Its entry level audiophile headphone but fits my budget perfect because my Astro ear pads were falling apart on me from wear and tear. Best part of this ear phone is comfortability when wearing them for extensive gaming hours.

  46. kuyy

    These headphones sound great for the price, and also have really good directional sound!

  47. davey

    These headphones have just been fantastic….. they are extremely comfortable and maintain a very high quality sound. I am super-satisfied with this purchase.

  48. JohnnyA

    These headphones sound amazing. If your looking for good

  49. JenniferG

    First pair splurge on headphones. Sound wise directly plugged into a port is AWESOME. I will say I use it to game more than music listening and the sound is a little quieter compared to other gaming headsets but it may be because I use a splitter and plug it into my controller via a turtle beach adapter, i’m sure it sound louder if I could plug it directly into a controller or dac amp. For the sale price I snagged these at, I am very pleased with my purchase here at BestBuy.

  50. RyanR

    awesome headphones great sound quality but sniper shots are a bit loud
