Probably the best headphones you can buy at $200
if you are looking for an enjoyable headphone. One that is pleasant and pleasing to listen to after a long day at work, just get a pair of these. I have had mine since the end of 2016. I was able to jump into the original drop of the HD6xx. I have bought several other headphones throughout this time and I always ended up with these. the 6xx lacks quantity in bass, but it does not lack quality. it has enough for genres like Jazz, not enough for other genres though. I am currently powering my 6xx through the Massdrop Liquid Carbon and it just such a beautiful pairing. There is zero fatigue. the liquid carbon adds a bit of umph on the bass too. these are great headphones for vocals. Male & female After almost 3 years of buying and selling headphones, these are still sitting on my desk, because I have not found a better value than these anywhere

A Top-Notch Experience From Beginning To End!
From the painless ordering process to making sure that the product arrived on time professionally packaged, along with an invoice to the actual product itself - the HD 6XX - Wow! I have been listening to music for over 40 years and have never heard my music like this before. Little nuances that were never heard before come out here. Not like hearing it for the first time, but like hearing a different mix of the same song. Very impressive Drop, please give yourselves a big hand for making these beautiful headphones even more available for all to enjoy!

What are "open back headphones"?
Open backs project sound both towards your ears and out the sides of the earpieces. This makes the sound feel as if they are coming from further away. Good for replicating the directions of where each vocals and instruments are coming from; like at a concert. Close backs sound as if the music is coming from the centre of your head; you get less "directional" experience but they feel more intimate. Open backs leak sound so if you are riding on public transport, the people sitting next to you might look at you sideways wonder why you are playing music for everyone around you. Most high end headphones are open back so don't worry about losing any sound quality from the leakage!
What is the best amp (or amp/dac) to pair with the HD6XX?
They go well with my Modi/Magni Schiit stack

Excellent value and quality
I purchased these on the initial drop, and mine arrived defective. Anytime bass hit, I could hear a fuzzy rattle in one of the ears. So I processed an exchange via MassDrop/Sennheiser. I ended up receiving a retail version of the HD650 as a replacement. I really enjoy these headphones. Vocal quality is excellent. I use them with my computer on an Apple dongle dac and JDS Atom amp.

Wonderful sound!
Admittedly, I prefer IEM's for comfort and convenience. However, I felt I needed to get something with wider soundstage, and the HD6xx does not disappoint. The sound beats all my IEM's without question. They will hold a great spot in my listening rotation. The headband does cause hotspots on my unusually large, bald head. I had to carefully bend the metal to achieve a better fit. I would not call them uncomfortable, but there is room for improvement.

Very surprised
I had no previous experience with fancy headphones. I was looking to replace my Shure SE215s that I stepped on, broke the stupid nozzle and got tired of gluing it back on. So I wanted something that wasn't....like that.... Just gotta say; wow. It's like the artist is singing in my room with my head wrapped in two of the most comfortable pillows I've ever rested my head on. I'm powering theses with an Fiio EK10 and it's doing it pretty well. One day I'll get a more powerful amp/dac but for now I'm very happy with the setup. Just wish the packaging came with that fancy hinged black box that I was seeing in the reviews....

Great sound, great price, hidden cost.
Firstly, these sound amazing, and are an amazing value. Secondly, I have sadly also encountered an issue that seems to get mentioned in the other reviews here: the ear-cups are garbage. These headphones are my daily drivers so I expect some wear and tear, but the time in which the ear-cups have been ruined is simply unacceptable. These arrived at my door at the very end of June and but only 2-3 months in the ear-cups had already heavily deformed. I don't know how much longer I can use these ear-cups, the right ear-cup is especially thinned out and this has dramatically affected the sound. Vocals now sound as if they were mostly in the left ear, and to counter this I initially made the sound louder in the right ear, which worked for a portion of time but I would forget I had done this, leading me to playing music too loud and damaging the hearing in my right ear (bit quieter now, extensive listening makes sound muffled and sound very close to ear). The ear-cups after 5 months:

A longevity review
I ordered these back in late 2017 and other than needing to replace the ear cups due to normal wear and tear, they've lasted multiple cross country drives and flights across the USA. They sound as good as the professional reviews say, which is to say they're the best sub-$500 deal you can get hands down. Mine see almost daily use, sometimes for hours at a time. The longest I've worn these was for an 18 hour stint and everything except my ears were worn out by the end. Cannot give 'ol Senny enough credit for these.

Great but make my head warm/itchy
The sound and comfort is great. There's a reason these are so well recommended for open-back headphones. The only complaint I have is the headband makes my head hot/itchy

A good upgrade to the 58x
Good upgrade if you have the amplifier or dac in your chain.

Get this instead of HD600
If you're in the market, these are a much better deal than the HD600. Sound was on par, but I ended up returning because it was uncomfortable to wear.
