Sennheiser HD 650

The Sennheiser HD 650 are ideal for engineers who work primarily in mixing and post-production with an eclectic portfolio. They serve extremely well for achieving top results in everything from hip hop to film scoring, and sound design to jazz. If what you’re after is a one-stop-shop kind of headphone that will get your mixes sounding great and at a very realistic price, then check out the Sennheiser HD 650 and discover why so many audio professionals call them THE headphones for mixing.

There was a time when the Sennheiser HD 650 was the absolute best in the Sennheiser lineup. But despite its decade-old design, it is still considered as one of the best headphones in the world in its price range (or any price range, for that matter).

Je had dan niks om je nek hangen of voor je bungelen. Deze HT heeft twee aparte aansluitingen die samenkomen aan een draad en dan ook samen blijven tot aan de plug. Lijkt op een dik snoer. Had liever een gladde ronde kabel gezien welke beter uiziet en bij het strakke design past.

The problem is that I love the HD650’s laidback sound. The Crack in its stock form was the perfect amp. It opened it soundstage up huge. It supplied enough energy to make the HD650 sing with rock music, while still retaining the HD650’s signature sound.

I bought these headphones myself…and I could not be happier. I’ve used them for both mixing and mastering projects, and I’m getting very consistent results. Am I going to throw away my studio monitors? Not at all. I use them all the time, but the Sennheiser HD650’s are my go-to piece of gear when I really need to hear something accurately.

These aren’t in-your-face rocker headphones. Nor are they relegated to classical music and audiophile listening. Instead, I found the HD650s strike an incredible balance of presence, reality, resolution, and detail, all while still managing to be just plain fun to listen to.

The Sennheiser HD 650 design and sound are quite solid. No wonder they were king of the line for so long. For tweaking audiophiles looking for conventional, full size, open ear headphones, Sennheiser's crown prince has modest styling and a design comfortable enough for a few hours of listening.

Simply sensational. No use on the bus, but for sitting at home you’d be hard-pressed to beat these hi-fi ’phones at this price.
