Anyway, I'm not reviewing these here, although they will serve as a comparison, which I why I mentioned them.

Sound pressure is low compared to closed-back models, but on-par with other open-headphones, and the harmonic distortion is decent.If you prefer a rich, dynamic sound that offers a strong low end while keeping the high end in line, this headphone may be for you. Not quite audiophile-grade and not quite consumer-oriented in sound, the Sennheiser HD 599 occupies an unusual space where it ticks a lot of boxes, though not all.

Aiding in a comfortable fit, each headphone swivels slightly on horizontal and vertical planes, but does not fold. Well anyway, I recently decided I wanted to use closed headphones to watch movies at night as to not disturb my girlfriend or downstairs neighbor. In everyday terms, the HD 599 excels at casual music and media consumption, while supplying a comfortable fit.The first number of the IP rating refers to protection against dust, while the second number refers to protection against liquid. I've noticed subtle things in tracks that I'd never noticed before thanks to the great frequency response. The Sennheiser HD 559 over-ear headphones are designed to give good sound quality without being quite as expensive as the top-of-the-range models. However, lifestyle changes in recent years have taken my interests elsewhere, mainly to home theater, and I stopped being active around these parts. There is a depth and space to the sound that the AKG's never had, whilst also having a remarkable amount of detail.
