I still use my first bigger money headphones, the HD 570. For the 23rd year straight. Will upgrade to this worthy successor, thx. There's no denying that the cushioning is slowly but surely starting to fall apart xD
Sorry but they’re not very comfortable, actually they clamp very hard at least for sometime. They do sound very good when paired with an amp or dac. 😉👍
I heavily disagree. They're the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn. Though I did come from the WH-1000XM3, which had a way stronger clamping force, so maybe that's why I find the HD560S more comfortable in comparison.
Yeah, they are pretty uncomfortable. I came from a Hyper X cloud II which is infinitely more comfortable than the HD 560s. I use a ifi zen dac (AMP / DAC) and the 560s don't really sound much better if at all.
I bought these a couple of days ago. Wow. I've had headphones from Audeze (great, bit heavy and not quite there across the board), from Grado (fun, heavy cable, not so great with some genres), Edifier stax, Sony, Bose... The Senneheiser HD560s are my favourite headphones already. Audio quality, especially using a 4.4mm to 2.5mm balanced cable from my A&K is astonishing. Comfort is great - so light, a single cable is so much better than 2 cables foem each ear. These handle every genre I've thrown at them. The enjoyment I'm getting from these reminds mw of when I got my first decent speakers, when ibgot my first quad driver IEMs.
Can it do with just laptop and Phone particularly Laptop man? why because I dont have a DAC and am wondering how much isthe performance difference really ?
great review. just got these after my ATH-M40x's broke. honestly not super impressed of the bat but I'm gonna give them a solid chance since everyone really likes them
Hi, great interesting video, I had my 560s for a few months and I noticed that mine is ternmated in 1/4" jack plug with adapter lead 1/4" socket to 3.5mm plug. I seen in the US they are going for $199 . They are around £130I in the Uk, think at this price point it's about right , however if I was buying new headphones I would have gone for drop 6xx for the same money. I have also have these too. Although the 560s quite comfortable but not as comfortable as my old hd575 which have thicker pads and like wise my 6xx 6xx I have changed for thicker pads. My old 575 is 1", where as the 560 is about 3/4". Regards Mark
very good review. I just got mine last week at BH photo. They had a 24 hour blowout at 129 dollars. I jumped on it as I was so wanting an pair of open back headsets. I had bought to pricey pair and was under impressed with the value. I knew right I way I was going to keep these. Very happy and the price unheard of. Winner for sure. Love mine. Now I can mix my videos with confidence. :)

i seen your channel mostly are consumer headphones these hd560s are audiophile headphones. They are different wait till you try sennheiser hd58x , hd600. For planar the he400se. these are all audiphile grade headphone. I own all of them except the hd560s. Was blown away. Especally with the hd600 for vocals , the hd58x subass after eq. And the airyness of the vocals from the he400se. Currently i just bought an entry level fiio jt1 headphone. i never tried their headphone before nor i seen people review them but lots of people are saying they are better than the philips 9500. So i just gave it a shot. I also do own the shp9500.
@@waleedassaf1836 never heard 560s before. Imo they sound different hd600 and shp9500. If you want sound stage and super comfortable out of the box and on a budget shp9500. If you want vocals focus and intimate sound go for hd600 the quality improve overall but than again. Now I own aune ar5000 imo it's best of both worlds it have bass even though it's open back , have very good soundstage depending on how you wear them and it have very decent vocals. But hd600 still sound more natural. But than the aune have that more punch and slam. And most importantly the sound like coming out of my head for the aune ar5000 it's an awesome experience. Currently my daily driver is aune .
Bro fantastic can you make a video comparing them to the Momentum 4 which is 100$ + more than these and supposedly their best sounding bluetooth headphone
The one in the video should be the shorter cable, length is 1.8m, unless there's been yet another revision for them. I bought a pair 2 weeks ago and that's the cable I received in the box. It used to have a 3m one with a 6.3mm end and another adapter from 6.3mm to 3.5mm. I've got that cable too as it used to ship with the HD 569.

Most accurate FR to the human ear. Angled drivers also ensures accurate imaging.
Can it do with just laptop and Phone particularly Laptop man? why because I dont have a DAC and am wondering how much isthe performance difference really ?
Sennheiser does sell replacement caples and I have short one with microphone. It’s good caple for gaming on Xbox etc.
What kind of amp dac would you reccomend for it? I'm considering a Topping DX3 Pro+ DAC
you don't really need an amp. It's an really easy headphone to drive

Hello, what is your opinion now on 560s
@@testname2635 i returned them because they wouldn't sit on my head right and didn't feel durable. i got dt 770s instead

Just picked these up for $170 USD
The Sennheiser HD560S goes on sale for $150 in the U.S. a lot.
Yep, got mine for 145!

Yap I too would like a comparison of momentum 4 vs HD 560S just because its no where and it would help all who are comparing the two
Open back vs closeback. It's like comparing apples with pears.
It ships with a shorter cable now.

just buy a bluetooth dac like the Qudelix 5k
