Featured Comments

Free flow of outside air and sound on each ear cup. The outside part of each ear cup is not sealed. Therefore, larger sound stage and sound seems like it's coming naturally from in front of you instead of inside your head.
It also means that it doesn't block outside noise. If someone is next to you on the bus, they can hear your music and you can hear them
These are my favorite gaming headphones for PC. You can wear them for long sessions and they don't hurt at all. Sound quality is better than gaming headsets and they're lightweight. They feel like astros without the extra weight

Quote from bonbon525 :
if i havent already own the 558 and the game 1 from senn, i would totally jump on this. this is about the same price i got the 558 many years ago. so consider inflation and such this is a STEAL!
The 558 is a great pair. I have some near field monitors here and honestly it's hard to tell if I have them on or off when wearing these. The sound is really close to the monitors.

If you don't mind refurbs, Sennheiser's official store has the 599 SE on sale for $69.99 with free shipping (I was able to pick up a pair this morning, but going back they now say 'Notify me', implying sold out I guess): https://www.sennheiser-hearing.co...lb4yizpul/

You'd be hard pressed to find a better bang for your buck pair of headphones at this price. I got them around Black Friday a couple of years ago. Neutral with good clarity. I paid $100 at the time which was solid. Had no problem selling them used for my cost.

This deal couldn't have come at a more perfect time. I've been doing shopping for new headphones for PC gaming, and this is such a great value for the under $99 price range. These drive well so you don't need an amp, cable is replaceable, most people consider them the most comfortable pair they've ever worn, and the sound is incredible, but don't expect deep bass, they provide a really great range and depth instead of sacrificing it for deep beats.

In terms of pure audio quality, how much better are these than my old HD 202 pair?

I already have an HD 560S but this price is way too good to pass up.

Do you know what is the difference between 599-SE and 599? Googling the info and some on Reddit said no differences, but other said the SE has more bass! Not sure who to believe☹️
Also the delivery time showing on my Amazon acct is May 3rd do you see the same thing? Thanks

The price is tempting, but I already have the HD 58X Jubilee, is there any difference in sound stage compare to the HD 599 SE?

Only difference is color. The standard is a whiteish color, SE is black.

And it's on backorder, but Amazon often pushes the ship date further back than needed, but usually their backordered stuff will ship in half the time or less.

What microphone do you pair them with?

For gaming, these are my favorite I've had since my HD555s(which was an amazing headset), wish they made wireless version of these. You are able to unplug the cord from the headset when not in use to store. Very comfortable and the velour ear cushions feel so much better than the leather style alot of companies use. I paid $120 for mine so this is a good deal. A good eq setting for gaming can really improve the directional hearing with these.

Quote from SeventiesVet :
Everything I've read on that comparison is that they're an improvement over the 598, and closer the 600 in soundstage though a bit less in detail. But overall closer nevertheless.
Haha. They are the same. 599 is a cosmetic change of 598, they have no difference. It's quite interesting to see many people claim 599 has a sound improvement

Actual freq response chart with eg settings for the 599. If you don't know, it's a pretty neutral headphone lacking bass. I prefer the DT990 for production and mixing on cans, but the 599 is excellent for listening especially at this price.
