HD 280 PRO Closed-Back Over-Ear DJ & Monitoring Headphones | Collapsible Design & Swivelling Ear Cups | 3M Coiled Cable & 1/4" Jack Adaptor Included (506845)

Their closed-back design and snug fit deliver high passive noise attenuation. The sound profile is neutral and balanced with clear mids and highs, ideal for monitoring, mixing, and critical listening where you want to hear the music as it really is. These earphones are well designed with folding and rotating ear cuffs the headband is sturdy. The ear padding is really soft. cons The clamping force is quite strong so extended wear can give some discomfort, especially if you have a larger head. Due to their size might not be the best option for on the go use. over all I think they are good value for money but they are a more serious headphone maybe designed for more professional use .

I've been using these since last September. The sound produced is pretty much perfect for what I want from them. Some people claim they sound flat and don't produce huge bass, that is (in my opinion at least) a good thing. For my somewhat variable hearing, these headphones are exactly what I want in terms of sound reproduction. I use them a lot for audio listening (voices over radio) and general music listening / film viewing. I have 'phones with massive bass, and whilst that is sometimes a good thing, for voice audio it certainly isn't. The high & mid tones are clear and punchy, allowing good voice definition. The bass is sufficiently powerful to give a solid, rounded sound and not overwhelm everything else and make it indistinct and mushy. Comfort-wise they fit my big, wide head and I can wear them comfortably for hours on end. The headband is fully adjustable and nicely padded, as are the earpads. They are fairly light too, despite being fairly large, further adding to the comfort during wearing. To give an idea, I wear for 3-5 hours per night (on average) whilst working and watching and so forth. The cable is a coiled type, and whilst probably fine for most uses (plugged into equipment decks, amps and what have you) I found it a bit too inflexible for my use plugged into my PC. More of an observation and not a criticism, if you were moving about with them then it keeps the cable tidy and out of the way preventing catching and snagging. So not worth a mark down in my opinion. Provided with a 1/4" to 3.5mm down converter you can use them in any device with the appropriate socket. I like Sennheiser kit, and have owned multiple pairs over the years (and still do) and have always enjoyed using them and the sound they produce, and these are no different. Don't expect massive, treacle-thick bass, if you do, you'll be disappointed. Do expect a smooth yet rounded sound experience with what (so far) have proven to be a well made bit of hardware.

I got this as an alternative the the Sony MDR-7506/1 that I use in the studio as monitor headphones, for the same purpose. My first impression was they are very plasticy in comparison although still sturdy. Putting them on, comfortable ear padding but hard to adjust the top well, it has two pads that sit atop the head, but the top is a springy plastic and in practice they flex apart so much that the plastin onbetween actually rests on my head. Second impression any touch of the lead couples loudly in to the left headphone and even if it just rubs on clothes - very loud! In terms of the sound quality, they seem very good for a closed headphone - a little more bass than the sony, clear and pleasant. I use them for about an hour at a time, pretty good and comfortable for that period but they would have been great with more attention to detail. A bit disapointed!

Great value for money. Lightwieght so comfortable and well designed for use for long time. Foldable so easy to carry in small places. Plug and play so easy to use and also comes with an adaptor for jack plug so its a bonus.

Sound fantastic,bought my 1st pair in the 2000's for djing & this is my 3rd pair to date. Great quality,fantastic price as opted for used pair which included a very nice hard case too. I think the only thing 'used' was the original packing,these are brand new.

Great, accurate, flat sound. I use them for mixing sound, mastering and video-editing. They are comfortable and snug but also solid and weighty. The sturdy build and the closed back means that they exclude external sounds without need for noise-cancelling. I can be working comfortably next to someone taking a meeting. Sometimes I just wear them with nothing playing when I need to concentrate! They look great as well.

Never thought I'd see a pair of Sennheiser headphones of this quality at the awesome price! I use them as monitors for my vocals in my studio. 90% of background noise is canceled, & the sound quality is spot on for DJ'ing. Very pleased with them 😊 Very happy with them

After many cheap buys decided to spend more money on a better make. Definitely better made with hopefully a cable that lasts. The sound is infinitely better. Time will tell if they last

Nice headphones for music creating.

Good quality👍👍

Für's Monitoring absolut Klasse! Der Preis hat mich verlockt den Kopfhörer zu kaufen. Alle aus Plastic, leider sogar die Schienen zum verstellen der Hörer auf Kopfmaß. Ging zurück und ich habe mich dann doch für einen Audio Technica für ein paar Euro mehr entschieden und bin jetzt sehr zufrieden.

Essendo appassionato di musica dance, elettronica, techno, house ecc, non ho putoto fare a meno di notare che il 90% dei DJ internazionali utilizza questo tipo di cuffie (come ad esempio Marco Carola, Jamie Jones ecc). Una volta un collega dj me le fece provare e me ne innamorai. Queste cuffie sono tra le più piccole ed ergonomiche nella categoria professionale per DJ e sono fantastiche perché permettono di ascoltare ogni minimo suono durante i mix oltre ad essere estremamente comode e leggere. Quest’ultima caratteristica è proprio ciò che le rende tra le migliori cuffie da DJ e monitoring audio in circolazione. Sono leggere anche grazie soprattutto all’archetto minimalista, divisibile in due parti per far respirare di più la testa e non farvi sentire troppo costipati. I pad sono di tipo circolare ed ON EAR ovvero si appoggiano sul padiglione auricolare offrendo comunque un ottimo isolamento dai rumori e suoni ambientali. Queste cuffie risultano estremamente comode, con delle morbide imbottiture ed i cuscinetti in velluto. La cuffia non stringere troppo sul capo, sia per chi ha la testa grossa che per chi ha il capo piccolo. In confezione super minimal proposta da questa special edition di Amazon, troviamo una valigetta rigida per il trasporto, la cuffia con cavo liscio con minijack da 3.5 e con un adattatore da 6.3 mm. Rispetto alla hd 25 pro, non abbiamo i pad sostitutivi in ecopelle, il cavo a spirale ed il sacchetto per il trasporto, ma il prodotto è esattamente lo stesso e gli accessori sopracitati saranno comunque sempre acquistabili separatamente se lo ritenete necessario. Un prodotto ideale sia per gli audiofili, che per i dj che per chi ha bisogno di monitorare l'audio durante le riprese (es i videomaker). Super consigliati soprattutto se acquistate in sconto (149€). Spero che questa recensione vi sia stata utile :D

Je viens de me rendre compte que je n'ai pas reçu l'étui de transport, vraiment très dommage. Un deal est un deal. J'attends que le vendeur me l'envoie ! Nous verrons. Pour le reste, le casque est une "tuerie".
