My new headphones - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

BuddyHawks · 04-03-2004, 05:36 PM

I just ordered the Sennheiser HD 595 headphones.
I listened to my friend's HD 590's and I was blown away.

I found them at a site that sells them under retail price for $190.
I still dont know if it was worth it to spend that much, but i'm sure I will appreciate them when they arrive.

Does anyone else have any experience with these pair of headphones?
Can anyone tell me something so I can justify my purchase?
Here's the link to where i got them "cheep".

sennheiser makes some of the best headphones out there. I use them in the studio, and I use them when I DJ on the road, I've used a few other brands(sony, pioneer, technics) and none of them can touch sennheiser, my old pair of 595s were super nice, A nice fit, the fun part was taking them off after an hour, sometimes they would pop when I took them off my head. I was told it had something to do with how tight they fit and the pressure change when the volume is turned up. I really didn't understand it, but all I knew is I had a pair of great sounding headphones that fit nice. The price isn't bad, if I had the money right now I'd be picking up another pair.

I've never used the HD-595s but I would trust HeadRoom's evaluation of them (they got a 5/5 rating). I purchased the Beyerdynamic DT 250-80s from them because I wanted a good pair of mid-range, closed headphones and they haven't disappointed.

we did receive free the new Pioneer HDJ 1000's which retail for anywhere between 150-250, i beleive. They are really, really decent.
