Oh man! Hd600 is an experience. For those who are planning to buy note that your iPhone cannot drive the speakers. You will have to buy a mini DAC and Amp. With full volume on iPhone you will get just enough sound output
Benny Bychick –
I just got these and they sound amazing! I already own the HD 400 PRO, and the sound on the HD 600 feels closer to my ears. It is also really comfortable on my ears.
Also, I’m able to drive them perfectly with my 16″ Macbook Pro (M1), so I can use these without needing extra hardware.

過去に大学や職場で主に研究/開発用に使用してきましたが、転職を機に自前で購入しました。
これまで聴いてきた物と変わらないフラットで温かみのある音で、とても満足しています。
この商品は、玄人好みの本格的なヘッドフォンをお探しの方や、これまでヘッドフォンの音が好きじゃなかったという方にこそ、ぜひ一度、静かな場所で聴いてみていただきたいと思っています。
【フラットな音響特性】
今時の多くのヘッドフォンは、2010年ごろに提唱されたハーマン・カーブをはじめとした、低域と中高域を強調した周波数特性になるようにして設計されています。これは人間が「聴感上フラットに聴こえる」周波数特性が、測定上のフラットな周波数特性と異なることを意味しています。
一方、本機の HD 600 は、初出が1997年から続くロングセラーモデルであり、その周波数特性は測定上のフラットを目指して作られているものと思われ、実測すると100Hz以上の帯域でほぼフラットです(耳介による回折の影響を除く)。また全帯域にわたって歪みが低く抑えられており、過渡応答にも優れています。
このような優れた音響特性から、多くの音声/音響系の研究室の実験用デバイスとして使われていますし、以前勤めていた楽器メーカーの開発現場でも(SONY CDR-900STの次くらいに)使用されていました。
【聴感上の印象】
本機は周波数特性が全帯域でおおむねフラットであり、特徴となるような大きなピークやディップがありません。そのため、一聴するとカマボコ型のような、中音域の密度が濃い音に聞こえるかもしれません。少なくとも高音が耳に突き刺さるようなタイプではなく、やわらかく温かみのある音です。
また、解析的ではないものの、音像の定位感がすばらしく、ヘッドフォン単体でもしっかりと頭外定位します。
本機の弱点は、開放型ヘッドフォン全体の弱点でもある低域の弱さがはっきりと表れているところです。昨今の他の開放型ヘッドフォンはもう少し低域を鳴らします(しかしその分、低域の歪みも増えてしまう傾向にあります)。
本機は何にでも使える実力がありますが、低域と高域が落ちていることもあり、ヘッドフォンとしては音が遠くに聴こえるので、バイノーラルなどの実験や制作、および空間オーディオ系の音楽を楽しむのに向いていると思います。ただし、なんでも遠くに聴こえがちなので、合わない作品もそれなりにあります。
【EQ補正】
本機はかなり有名な定番ヘッドフォンのため、EQ補正や音場シミュレーターのPCソフトウェア/DAWプラグイン/モバイルアプリに必ずと言ってよいほどプロファイルが用意されています。元々の特性がフラットなので、補正せずとも十分ではありますが、素の特性が優秀な分、最小限の補正で高い精度を出すことができます。そういったプロファイルが用意されていても、ヘッドフォンの個体差が大きいと効果が薄れてしまいますが、本機は個体差による品質のばらつきが少ないため、他のヘッドフォンよりも相対的に補正効果が高くなります。
【EQ補正とイヤーパッドについて】
なお、ソフトウェアによってはイヤーパッド別のEQ補正プロファイルが用意されていることがありますが、これは、イヤーパッドの素材や形状が(耳との距離や密閉率、吸音率などの影響で)音質に大きく影響するためです。イヤーパッドは消耗品ではありますが、なるべく純正品を使うことをおススメします。
ヘッドフォンを使用していない間は、イヤーパッド同士で押しつぶさないように間に物を挟むなど配慮して保管すると、性能を長期間安定させることができます。
【ヘッドフォンアンプ】
最後に、言うまでもないことですが、ドライブ能力のあるヘッドフォンアンプを使う必要があるので注意してください。特にオーディオインターフェースのヘッドフォンアンプ出力では、ここ近年はハイゲイン対応が進んでいるとはいえ、インピーダンス300オーム、感度97dBの本機を鳴らしきれない機種もまだそれなりに存在します。そういった機材を利用されている方は、せっかくであれば別途ヘッドフォンアンプをご用意いただいて、ぜひ HD 600 の本気を体感していただきたいなと思っています。

La struttura è caratterizzata da semplicità, leggerezza, comodità e resistenza, caratteristiche che hanno reso famosa l’intera famiglia 600 di Sennheiser.
La riproduzione privilegia molto le frequenze medie, le alte sono rese con precisione ma non essendo mai fastidiose mentre le basse frequenze non sono enfatizzate inutilmente ma rese in maniera sostanzialmente “realistica”, precisa e mai invadente.
In breve si tratta a tutti gli effetti della regina indiscussa della famiglia 600.
_______________
» COSTRUZIONE
Le plastiche NON lasciano la sensazione di materiali scadenti e poco durevoli, sono invece di ottima qualità e restituiscono ottimo feedback sia durante l’uso che durante la regolazione o la sostituzione dei cuscinetti.
I padiglioni sono i classici della serie Sennheiser, molto morbidi, comodi e caratterizzati da una firma sonora davvero inimitabile, per contro si consumano molto facilmente e se usati costantemente ci si potrebbe trovare a sostituirli anche due volte in un anno (volendo preservare la firma sonora originale del prodotto).
La comodità è indiscussa, probabilmente la forza di serraggio solo leggermente alta ma non dovrebbe dare fastidio soprattutto dopo qualche giorno di utilizzo.
» PRESTAZIONI
L’impedenza di 300 ohm rende conveniente l’uso di un buon amplificatore cuffie, possibilmente dotato di uscite bilanciate, in questo modo sarà davvero possibile esplorare la riproduzione di tutte le frequenze dalle più alte alle più basse ad un volume corretto.
Le medie frequenze sono le protagoniste, ottima cuffia quindi per un ascolto brani vocali con voci calde e rilassate come ad esempio Norah Jones.
Le frequenze basse non sono particolarmente spinte, tuttavia l’uso di un buon amplificatore soprattutto se valvolare può regalare maggiore calore a questa cuffia rendendola ottima anche sulle frequenze più basse.
La scena sonora è molto intima, la più ravvicinata di tutte le cuffie Sennheiser, l’esatto opposto di una HD800S, il cantante sembra stare davvero di fronte all’ascoltatore a pochi centimetri di distanza, non è un difetto solo una caratteristica che si addice molto ad ascolti rilassati, probabilmente meno a tipologie di brani quali la musica classica.
In ogni caso è sempre garantita la precisione assoluta della riproduzione, nel bene e nel male. La HD600 non inganna, non cerca di rendere migliore un brano con eventuali difetti che saranno palesati senza pietà, questa caratteristica la rende ottima anche in ambito professionale.
» CONCLUSIONI
Ottimo dispositivo, solido e durevole, senza fronzoli ma con tutto ciò che serve per un ascolto ininterrotto anche di svariate ore.
Concentrata sulla riproduzione sonora della fascia media, questa splendida cuffia può comunque essere riscaldata da un amplificatore valvolare o da un ottimo stato solido come il Violectric V222.
La comodità e le caratteristiche di riproduzione sonora priva di affaticamento, garantiscono ore di ascolto sia per svago che in ambito professionale e lavorativo.

But the wire could have been shorter and better quality.

I have never heard this kind of purest and clearest audio ever in my entire life. What an absolute masterpiece. Well done Sennheiser.

As an audiophile you will not get what you pay for

Was using a Sony MDR 7506 with tiny impedance of 32 ohm. This seems such a step up at 300 ohm. The clarity of the high and mids are amazing bass is ok. First proper audiophile headphones. Loving it.

Best headphones I’ve ever owned.
Abhinav –
I recieved this on a Friday. Came back home, unboxed, plugged it in, played Bohemian Rhapsody. And happy tears started rolling instantly.
Legendary headphone that still stands the test of time. Launched in 1997, this headphone is older than me. And the fact that this is still one of the best at this price range says a lot about it. A vocal forward and extremely detailed pair. It doesn’t have a wide soundstage but what if I told you that’s its strength? Intimate soundstage with excellent details makes the sound deep and layered and that’s what makes it special and something everyone must experience. You’ll hear details you’ve never heard before in your favourite songs and it’s easily recognisable too thanks to the layering. It’s simply beautiful. Vocals, both male and female are perfect. Not too warm, not too bright. Just perfect. From the bass voice of SPB to the high pitched Sadhana Sargam. Everyone sounds great and I don’t know how Sennheiser did it. Detailed audio gear generally tend to have shouty vocals but not this one. One real con though is the lack of subbass. It’s not a problem in 95% of the songs but you’ll want more in those other 5%. ≈3:35 timestamp in “Kadalenum” for instance. You’ll notice the lack of subbass, especially if you’ve listened to something that has it. However if you ask me to pick between details and subbass, I’d anyday pick the details.
About build quality you ask? People who bought it in 1997 are still using it, with minor repairs. Says a lot about durability and repairability and I don’t think I need to add anything else. Looks wise, well it looks just like the photos in the brushed black colour. I like it. You decide for yourself. The photos are right there. It’s extremely comfortable too thanks to the light-weight plastic used. See? You can make durable headphones with plastic. One thing to note is, it comes with a cloth earpads and using them in sweaty Indian summers is not really ideal and could make the pads stink. AC is recommended.
Now. These are open back headphones and if you don’t know it already, open backs leak sound out and lets ambient sound in and these are no exception. Not made for outdoor listening. However you can happily run around and dance in the house, plugging them into your portable DAC.
Now that brings me to the biggest confusion I had before purchasing these and something that need to be considered before purchasing any high impedance open back and that is power requirement. Will it work for someone like me who likes to dance around the house while listening to music? That was my confusion. And remember when I told I had tears when listening to Bohemian Rhapsody? Know what I plugged it into? An Abigail Pro with a mere 31mW power! I’m happy to report that even an entry level portable DAC will give you an enjoyable output. That being said, I did need to max out the volume and low volume recordings with detail and bass peaks needed more decibels. And using the Fiio KA13 with balanced cable brought in more details at lesser decibel level. My current setting is around 40% volume (KA13 with balanced cable connected to samsung s20fe). To sum it up, if this is your first high impedance open back, you can happily enjoy the headphone with your apple dongle or audiocular D07 or Abigail Pro, before saving up and upgrading to a more powerful DAC/AMP for even more spectacular sound.
Now coming to the comparisons. Now I haven’t heard any others in this price range. Heard a few expensive ones at the headphone connect event, which ofcourse sound better but not a lot at this price range. My main considerations when I decided to buy a open back under 25k were Sundara, HD600, 900 Pro X and Edition XS (more expensive). Main reason I went ahead with HD600 is ofcourse the price. Got these for 17k and it’s a steal for that price. Reason why I picked this over Sundara was simply sound signature preference. I just don’t like bass. Punchy and fast bass yes (electrostatics💙💜) but absolutely hate it when it makes the vocals even a little bit warm. Over Edition XS simply because of the price. Half the price. Got a DAC and a bal cable along with HD600 and still left with enough to get a very good IEM. Now over 900 Pro X I must say it’s purely because of the Sennheiser brand (Beyerdynamic is an internationally reputed brand too but in India, Sennheiser spare parts are easily accessible) and the legend HD 600 is. And ofcourse the offer price made it more sweeter. May be I would’ve enjoyed the 900 Pro X more because of my preference for brighter detailed sound and tolerance to sibilance but I definitely don’t regret getting the HD 600.
So to sum it all up. If you’re looking for a vocal front, extremely detailed, intimate and layered sounding open back headphone, from a reputed brand, that’s durable and okay sacrificing on subbass. The HD600 is the way to go. And at offer prices, it’s simply a blind buy.

One of the best in their price range.
