Audiophile Avant-GardeDecember 3, 2008 Maybe you're like me. Maybe you looked at this page, in search of a good pair of headphones, and you thought to yourself, "Why the heck would anyone pay $$$ amount for a pair of headphones? Headphones are just headphones, right?" Wrong. Dead wrong, in fact. From Sony, to AKG, to LTB, to Sennheiser, you've got youserlf a wide range of products out there. Do people honestly pay $$$ for a pair headphones? If your sound matters, if you value your CD collection ripped in lossless format, and if you want to properly hear your music, you'll get these headphones.
I, at first, was skeptical myself. But, unlike the HD600s, and HD650s, which are $$$$$ compared to these, you're getting, pretty much, the same sound. The sure, the range of the more expensive headphones will be greater, but that's what you're getting. But, let's be honest, what normal, audiophile-ready ear will actually hear the difference between 12-38500Hz on the HD595s, and 10-39,500Hz on the HD650s? Probably not many. Exactly. So why bother with the extra cash? A marketing scheme indeed. Or bragging rights. Believe me, they're not worth it. You want to brag about headphones, go buy yourself a pair of "Beats" by Dr. Dre, you'll live to regret it. These headphones are what I like to call "Audiophile Avant Garde". They will elevate your ears and you will hear things in your music that you never heard before.
Of course, there is a catch. There's always a catch. Get a headphone amp. Search on ebay, search on HeadRoom, etc. and go and do yourself and your ears a favor: buy an amp. Sure, you really don't need one because the of the low impedance on these 'phones, but, if you're just going to plug these into your laptop or ipod, etc. you're better off not wasting so much cash. But, if you're willing to spend the money on these, and you want to refine your listening a little more, an amp will do these headphones justice.
And boy will your ears thank you. Not only are these headphones beyond comfortable, even people with glasses, the construction is very high quality, and the included desk clamp is a nice addition.
The sound: highs are crisp and clear, mids are balanced and the sound stage is accurate and realistic. There could, honestly, be a little more bass, but some of the purist audiophile's will argue that that's because the bass is being accurately produced, not artificially increased to mess with the rest of the balance. Fine with me.
All in all, these are a great pair of headphones. They will serve you for a long time, pleasing you both with sound and construction. The price is a little high, but, then again, there are headphones that are so much more that can't justify their price. That's just my opinion of course. If you want to spend $$$$ on a pair of headphones, got right ahead, show that you can. But if you want to save and still listen like a true audiophile, don't pass these babies up.
Completely underwhelmed...November 5, 2008 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I was quite anxious to get my Sennheiser HD595 headphones in the mail today. So much praise has been written about them. Man, what a disappointment. These headphones sound veiled and lacking in bottom end. Boxy too. Just putting them on, the outside sounds are boxy sounding. Not a good sign.
I own a pair of Audio Technica ATH-M50 headphones, which are sealed and a pair of Grado SR60's, which are open like the HD595's. The Grado's, for $69.00, blow these out of the water.
I put on a classical CD, since that is what most "audiophile headphones" seem to favor, and the music sounded fine. I then put on a Rush CD that's a personal favorite of mine and was shocked by how muffled it sounded.
Believe me, I like an accurate headphone. No boomy bass, no ultra cripsy highs to set my teeth to aching. But these HD595's are completely BORING to listen to. People keep saying how these sound like you're in the first row at a concert, versus several rows back like other, more expensive Sennheiser headphones. Well, if this is first row, that first row is 6 blocks from the stage.
Save your $200 for a nice pair of Grado's, you won't be disappointed.
Very ImpressedOctober 22, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I use these headphones for music and for watching movies and playing videogames. They are comfortable, light, come in a sturdy box and have a nifty little stand. I also own the BOSE Noise Cancelling $299 headphones, and while those are good for places where I dont want everyone to hear what I am listening to, the 595s produce much higher quality sound and they are $100 less! The other reviews influenced me greatly in my decision to buy these, read them and read them all - make sure these fit the kind of headphones you need, they are NOT the kind of headphones you want to buy if you are working in a place where others are withing 15 feet of you, they leak serious amounts of noise....
Either way, For my needs, they are perfect and if they meet yours, I assure you that you will not be at all disappointed.

I like these headphones because it is possible to get excellent and satisfying audio without turning up the volume enough to aggravate my tinnitus.
From a guy that love to listen music and see movies with heat phones...October 20, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I try sennheiser before and I never like any of them but, I have to said that those headphones from sennheiser are really good. I have for about 4 years a per of Grado SR60 and I like them a lot but, I was looking for a more comfortable headphones and those headphones will give you that. If I have to compare those two headphones I have to said both are very good choice just the sennheiser 595 are more comfortable. If you just love to hear music and see movies with headphones you will love this one. Like I said if you are looking for comfort and great sound those are the headphones to buy.
