Review: I cant believe how good these are at this price. - Simply amazing. I have been a headphone guy for years. I almost always exclusively use open back headphones. I have had some closed back headphones in the past that cost multiple times as much as these do and there has always been a sense of claustrophobia in the music making it unrealistically difficult to get a grasp on the spacial qualities of the songs. Out of the box these changed my perception on closed back headphones and the more I use them the better they get. Also, there's nothing wring with that claustrophobic right-next-to-your-head sound, its what I get and expect from Bluetooth wireless headphones, even the nicer ones. The way those create spacial qualities in music is usually with DSP, digital signal processing. That makes the fun happen for sure but its not realistic. The wireless headphones spend much more time on tech in the digital realm than good old sound quality. What the Sennheiser HD620s do, to my ears, is a revelation in the closed back headphone market. Are there others that sound better, I'm sure there are, the HIFI world is vast and insane. What these do is give me everything I want in a closed back headphone at a price anyone can either afford or save up to. I mean that across the board, it's everything I want. Clarity is nice, mids are Sennheiser's specialty so they are realistic and nice, bass is there when needed but not too deep. The highs are not to pingy and insane and the bass is not so deep that it distracts from the music. The Sennheiser HD600, as many people know, is possibly the best all around headphone on the market. This is why they have bene unchanged for decades and continue to sell super well. Again, there are many that are better but at the price point the HD600 does everything so well that it is often one of the price point benchmarks that other headphone manufacturers try to beat. Nothing sounds bad on it. It's my go to swiss army knife ol reliable and it scales incredibly well sounding better and better the more the listener invests in their chain. I reach to it often and I have many headphones that are MUCH more expensive. Tons of people feel the same. The Sennheiser HD620s does not sound like the HD600 so don't expect that. What the HD620s represents to me is the same idea as the HD600, the headphone that will sound great all the time no matter what it connect it to, just this time as a closed back. It's wonderful. It is easier to drive than the HD600, I would assume you could use it from the iphone dongle or the headphone out on a laptop, I have not tried this, but I would HIGHLY recommend using an external dac, amp, or dac/amp. The HD620s, much like the HD600, scales very well and sound better and better higher quality the chain is.
Review: Don't Settle For Less - I was retiring my HD 595s after they cracked at the temples (just like I was warned they would). The Senns fit like a dream and had unbelievable sound, but the cheap build came back to bite me and made me regret spending the money. So, thinking the grass might be greener, I bought the Grado HD325is and was really excited to get them, at first. The "Grado Sound" is highly subjective, you either like it or you don't. I found it to be "tinny" and overly bright to the point of distraction from the music I was listening to. So, I sent the Grados back on the same day I got them. Which brings me to the Sennheiser HD 650s. I had really wanted the 650s, but the high price was a point of contention for me. After being underwhelmed by the build quality of the 595s, I was hesitant to take the plunge. I knew I would need a decent amplifier to push the 650s which have a high impedance, and that meant even more cash layout. But, I wanted to own the best cans I could get for my money, so I ordered the 650s and the FiiO E9 amp along with the E7 DAC, which fits right into the E9. From the first moment I listened to the 650s I knew I'd made the right choice. I really loved the sound of the 595s, but even their great sound is just a mere shadow of the crisp clarity and detail you get from the 650s. And the build quality of the 650s has renewed my faith in Sennheiser as well. Where the 595s had plastic parts, the 650s are metal and I'm not worried a bit about them cracking. The 650s are really bright and not at all muddled. Some people talk about the "Sennheiser Veil" which is supposed to be a damping of the high end, but I don't find that at all in the 650s. I'm utterly impressed with the sound presentation. I've listened to all types of music with theses cans, from jazz to rock to classical and I've enjoyed the nuances of each thanks to these incredible headphones. I don't feel like I'm sitting in front of the musicians. The soundstage makes me feel as though I'm surrounded by the music. I can hear every single instrument clearly. The brushes against the cymbals are just as clear as the warm, rich bass. These cans really shine on pieces where the musical instruments are layered. You become completely immersed in the performance. Comfort is never an issue with Sennheiser. The Grado cups were made of some horrible, scratchy plastic that instantly irritated the ears. The 650s fit over the ear instead of sitting against them, as the Grados do. You can listen to the 650s for hours on end and never miss a beat. Velour padding ensures a comfortable fit. So, are there any drawbacks to the 650s? Well, yes. The price is the single biggest drawback. These are not cheap. But with build quality like the 650s have, you won't be replacing them for a long time. These are "open" headphones, which means that they're not ideal for airplanes, cubicles or anywhere else that you don't want people to hear what you're listening to. But they're absolutely perfect for home use, which is exactly what I bought them for. So, my overall opinion of the Sennheiser 650s is that they're the standard of what headphones should be. They are absolutely superb in their sound presentation and their build. These headphones, like all cans, need a break-in period. I have heard it might be as much as 300 hours for the 650s. This allows the diaphragms to "loosen" a bit and makes the sound even more incredible. I'm looking forward to many years of heavenly sound from my 650s and I'd recommend them to anyone who doesn't want to settle for less than the best. *Disclaimer - I've never got to listen to the Sennheiser HD 800s, they are WAY out of my price range, so I'll be content with the 650s as the best sub-$1000 cans on the market

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these as good as Beats by Dre?**
A: Beats by dre has a tuning that can be summarized as a trainwreck. 
Beats by dre have bloated bass and poor upper range that sounds completely unnatural and not clear at all. Sennheiser hd600's are a reference class headphone; which means they're tuned to be as natural as possible. They have what is referred to as a "ledgendary" tuning (which i agree with). 
If you like to hear what you're listening to in all its detail, then hd600's are the better option. If you don't care about quality at all, and only like poorly executed bass, then the beats are the better option. 
In my opinion, beats is outclassed even by cheap chinese audio brands like moondrop and tangzu. Beats can't even compare with sennheiser as a brand, let alone headphone vs headphone. 
Its like asking if someone who has never played a game is as good as a pro. Hd600's will last you for life and are all you need for good quality sound. 
However, you will need an amplifier (apple dongle for example) to get these to a loud enough volume.

**Q: sound leakage**
A: Ok, I am in my mid 50's and I do not blast the volume so keep that in mind, as a reference on my iPad I listen with the volume at about 2/3 and on my iPod classic the volume is just over 1/2. The sound leakage does not bother my wife (she is easily bothered by my music) with her sitting 5-6 feet away. Along the same vein the headphones do not block outside sound, if you pause the music you can easily carry on a conversation without taking them off. Hope this has some usefulness.

**Q: bass response?**
A: I'll put it this way: These cans play the song that was recorded the way it was recorded. If the artist didn't make it thump these won't make it thump. So if you want your headphones to add bass that wasn't recorded by the artist then these won't do that. These play EXACTLY what was recorded. So if you don't like the bass response of these then you are a person that likes your music with added bass that the artist never intended.

**Q: Where is this Sennheiser HD 600 made ?**
A: Sennheiser has a manufacturing plant in Ireland where some models of their headphones are made.  The product sheet for my pair of HD600s was printed in Ireland and the general word on the street is this model is made there.  The HD800 is currently manufactured in Germany but most of the other models are made in Ireland with a few in China.  A Google search of 'HD6600 made in Ireland' will get you some discussion boards on this subject.  Hope this helps.

*by J***Z on November 12, 2025*

En primer lugar aclaro que soy entusiasta de la música y trato de disfrutarla con la mayor calidad posible pero no me considero audiófilo, por lo que mi comentario es muy simple. He estado utilizando los sennheiser hd 599 SE y es la referencia que tengo. La diferencia es bastante notable al actualizar a los HD 650, desde que me los puse y escuche algunos de los disco de referencia que utilizo se nota la mejora del sonido en general, agudos y medios bien definidos y graves controlados. hice pruebas conectados a un DAC CAMBRIDGE AUDIO modelo DAC MAGICPLUS, 24 bits 192 kHz, con trasmisión de TIDAL y archivos propios en HI-RES. Próximamente haré pruebas con un DAC- amplificador dedicado de mayor resolución.
