Superlux HD562 Headphones

An all-purpose headphone with a supra-aural, closed-back design, the Superlux HD562 rivals the Sennheiser HD25 in comfort, style, and sound quality—at a fraction of the price. The large, high-efficiency neodymium drivers perform remarkably well in noisy environments and with low-output devices, making this pair a shoo-in for studio monitoring, field recording, DJ sets, and your daily commute. Plus, the HD562 is ripe for custom use, with a replaceable cable and a 6.4-millimeter adapter that unscrews to reveal the more common 3.2-millimeter mini jack.

Coming in just over 6 ounces, these headphones won’t weigh you down during long listening sessions. The padded, split-style headband helps distribute pressure more evenly, while the earcups adjust to the perfect fit and swivel for one-ear monitoring when you need it. Use the leatherette earpads for optimal isolation, or install the included velour earpads for no-sweat breathability. Either way, you’re in for fun, engaging sound with crisp, present highs, extended lows, and good instrument separation through.
