This is an absolute buy. I am surprised the deal is not getting more attention.

Great headphones. I got one two years ago for the same price. I remembered this went cheaper than $99 sometime.

Are these worth buying if I already own a pair of HD 650?
Probably, but more as a back up pair. The nice thing is that they won't need an amp. They normally sell for about $180

Good deal. But they dont last very long though still works but the padding and everything else becomes sticky over time. Cant use mine anymore because of it.

Can I also use these for gaming as well as listening to music? Mostly for single player
They're great for both. The only bad thing about this is the sound leaks and has zero noise cancelation.

Yep got these when they were $80 a couple years back. Great for gaming and video editing.

Quote from bluestone :
In what way is it better than 58x for gaming and are there any other tradeoffs? I liked the 58x more than 6xx and 559 and not sure if I should try any other Senns.
For me it has a wider sound stage and does a much better job portraying distance. That was the first thing I noticed when trying them back to back with the 58X. It also has more pinpoint imaging. Speaking just gaming, I find zero tradeoffs with maybe the exception of less isolation. Oddly the 599 seems way more open compared to the 58x or any of the 6 series, so any noise in the room is heard. Things are a little different for music but gaming is a strong point for the 599 compared to the others mentioned.

Hard to say. They are not a technically better pair of headphones, but they do offer things the HD 650 doesn't. If at times you feel the 650 is boring and closed in then the 599 is a good alternative. It's a little punchier and crisper sounding. As much as I love the 650, I find watching movies or even just YouTube stuff more enjoyable on the 599. Now if you wanted something that contrasts your 650 with music in mind, the Audio Technica R50x might be worth looking into.

There is an extensive comparison to HD 650 in the review [wordpress.com] I posted earlier.

Thanks for the opinion. I don't do much gaming, but have the PC38x for when I do. It's not that good on music, so I guess I'll keep 58x for music and don't need 599.

With your what now?
It's a literal DAC and Schiit's the manufacturer, lol. Mostly only audiophiles have heard of them. I've owned my Schiit Magni Heretic Black since 2024 and still have yet to use it unfortunately...

They were always velour. Same as their predecessor the 598.
My pair of HD 595s are actually soft leather (or some variation of it).
