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

Hi guys~ I just purchased HD58X few weeks ago. I have ear fatigue after listening musics in iTunes for 30 mins. Will getting an amp/dac help on this issue? Currently I just plugged it directly in my Gigabytes H370N WIFI audio out. The volume can get loud even it is set to 4/100 in Windows Volume and with the volume in apps set to max. Just FYI, I burned them in with frequency sweep, pink noise, and white noise for more than 100 hours.

Is there a place where I can get a 3.5mm replacement cable for the 58x?

Just go to Amazon and search for Sennheiser HD600 replacement cable. You can get them from $15-$30 in various lengths and in either 3.5 or 6.3 mm plugs.
I'm sure A5. meant well but I personally don't like giving my info to more sites than needed and chances are you have an amazon account.

Before buying the 58X, I was not in way a Sennheiser fan. Most all I had experienced were to my ears veiled, congested and bloated sounding. After taking a $160.00 chance on the 58X that has changed. Truth is, if I wasn't so impressed by the HD 58X performance I'd likely never tried the 660 S. After listening with both, below are some personal observations.
The Devil's in the details! The HD 58X is not veiled, but it simply doesn't have the detail retrieval of the 660 S. The bass is by comparison exaggerated on the 58X, but it is not bloated. Both perform best with a good amp. Neither of these cans become harsh with a decent recording. Some have mentioned a grainy sound, it doesn't seem to be present in either of mine. The imaging and soundstage on the 660 S seems noticeably better than on the 58X.
I've twice tried the grill foam removal on the 58X and honestly can detect no notable difference. Years ago with the 500 series there was a noticeable change when removing the thicker mat inside their grill. (Either way they still sounded like hell to me)
As I type this I'm listening with the 58X and enjoying it immensely.
I don't own anything below $300.00 that I enjoy as much as the 58X.
The build quality is I believe equal. Other than the obvious grill logo and shiny headband from a distance they look pretty much like the same cans.
Is the HD 660 S better at clearly delivering the majority of what I listen to? Yes.
Is the HD 660 S worth 3 times the 58X cost? For many if not most, probably not.
I like the 660 S performance enough for "me" to justify the difference in cost. I did wait till I found them discounted to nearer $400.00 before purchasing. I'm still quite pleased with 58X. They are a genuine bargain!
If you have a decent source, good source material to feed them and you're stuck on the bubble about buying these, at $160.00 they're a steal.

Are the ear pads worth the extra money? If so which ones specifically for music and fps games. Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I've got a pair of HD6XX. I wonder if getting a pair of HD 58X JUBILEE would be worth it. Thoughts??

thanks for your thoughtful reply. I already have a pair of HD 6XX. To be honest I couldn't believe what the fuss was about. Then it happened...
The sound kept getting better as I broke them in. I've had other headphones since but always kept going back to my HD 6XX.

You're welcome!
I feel you. I read they were veiled, but in my experience, a lot of people don't have trained ears or simply have hearing damage. I bought them and was instantly wowed upon first listen. Even wearing the super bright DT 990 Pro and then the HD 6XX, I didn't consider them veiled or dark-sounding.
If you like your HD 6XX, you'll like the HD 58X and they won't be redundant, because they have different qualities. I gifted mine to a girl in church after getting my NightHawk Carbons, but miss them enough that I will probably buy them again. While the HD 6XX have a more refined and extended top end, the HD 58X have a unique, sparkly quality that sounds delicious.
They remind me of tube amps. So good!

A classic design that never dies. But what’s the matter with the matt black parts? It feels awkward.
