Product Description
In 1991, Axel Grell joined Sennheiser and designed the HD 580 Precision: the headphone that would launch a much-loved series—and the peak of the company’s audiophile headphones for more than 25 years. Four years later, to mark its 50th anniversary, Sennheiser released the HD 580 Jubilee, which would later become the HD 600 and lead to the HD 650 ... Read More

Different in a nice way
I'm not a qualified audiophile in any way, but, like art, I know what I like when I like it. I like the openness of these headphones. I was hesitant about buying these since I have only used closed-back before, but the way the sound was presented was very likeable. I let a couple of others try it at work and they all arrived at the same feeling independently without any prompting from me. They all liked it.

perfect
Had these babys for a week now and i've never been more satisfied with a pair of headphones. Fantastic sound, the bass is "phat" and the highs are crisp.
I run them through a GSX1000 and for me personally, its perfect.

Great Bass
Hi,
well I’ve been listening to these for a couple of days now and I’ve got a couple of observations.
First, I should tell you that I have the original 580 and the follow up HD600’s.
My first impression of the 58X was that it had great bass and crisp highs.
But from my perspective the bass is a little exaggerated and the “crisp” highs are a bit fatiguing.
Both my old phones give a smoother and more natural listening experience. Slight nod to the HD600.
Yeah I know these new phones are voiced for today’s music and listening styles but
I also didn’t think that they are as comfortable as my own 580’s or 600’s.
The clamping is just too tight. Probably because the new ones are meant to used by a more active user.
Just to be sure, because my older headphones are 15+ years old,
I opened up my Brand new back-up pair of HD580’s. Yes, brand new in the box.
Impressions confirmed, the vintage phones ARE more comfortable and have a less fatiguing sound.
I guess the newer model is more elevated at the extremes because the manufacturer is factoring the environment that they are most likely to be used in.
That said, they are fine headphones and may likely be the best headphones that most purchasers will likely ever use. All in all, a good value for the money.

Great value. Amazing sound
Sound quality beats out all previous headphones I used. Don't like that it's almost all plastic but it's still has a solid construction.

Previously to buying these, I had been mainly using some Senn hd 518s for a few years. As soon as I took the 58x out of the box and tried them, I didn't even need to compare them to notice the far superior depth to the sound.

Worth the money, not the hype.
I bought this headphone because of all the hype around it. Keep in mind that I already have the Senheiser HD600 HD650(6XX) HD660S beforehand.
People were saying this is better than all those three combined, that it is what HD700 should've been.
My take after almost a year of use? No.
BUT
Do not get me wrong, this is a great pair of headphone. For the price you are getting something special here. The clarity in the mids and highs are there, the bass is more pronounced than the HD 600, all in all a pretty decent pair of headphone. But it doesn't win against its bigger brothers.
The HD600 is still by far, the clearest, sweetest sounding of the family, the resolution and details in the mids and highs still makes my hair stands on end, what it lacks in bass it makes up for in its' clean sound.
The HD650 provides a different musical experience, more relaxed and dynamic
The HD660s wins all in the 6XX line ups. With clarity of the 600 and a punchy, clean bass.
Where does the 58X Jubilee comes in? Though the sound signature is similar to that of the 660s, that is, clear and dynamic, not veiled like the 650 and not flat like the 600. It loses out by a large margin in terms of distortion. The distortion in the bass is much more pronounced in the 58X, making longer listening session fatiguing . The clarity in the upper mids and the sparkles in the highs are also nothing to write home about.
What it has going for it is the lower impedance. Making the headphone shines against its siblings when paired with a bad amp or a mobile device.
Think of it as a portable 660s with low impedance, get one to complete the collection but don't expect anything life changing.

Excellent product and value
A wonderful take on the classic Sennheiser sound with better bass. Excellent driver matching on my pair. Only improvement would be to raise the treble by 20% or so, as they sound a bit flat compared to most consumer headphones.
