Our take on the Sennheiser HD 600

by Dave Bar

An audiophile favorite

A long-time favorite among discerning listeners, the HD 600 headphones are an excellent choice for pro-audio recording engineers and home audiophile music lovers alike. Sennheiser's exacting design standards and construction quality ensure outstanding performance. The HD 600s will dazzle you with their ability to convey music's dynamics and emotion. Deep, effortless bass anchors your listening experience while the headphones' rich midrange and airy treble help render instruments from acoustic bass to soprano saxophone and electric guitars with stunning realism.

Superb driver design delivers high-definition sound

The HD 600s' drivers boast lightweight aluminum voice coils for superb accuracy and fast transient response. You'll experience wide, open sound that complements everything from sweeping orchestral arrangements to high-impact movie soundtracks. The metal mesh on the back of the earcups leaves them open to provide added spaciousness and prevent unwanted vibrations from coloring the sound. The Kevlar-reinforced, oxygen-free copper cord ensures clean signal transfer.

High-quality craftsmanship

The elliptically shaped velour earpads fit gently but snugly around the ear. The padded adjustable headband and earcups make these 'phones ideal for long hours of comfortable music listening.

Highlights:

  • around-the-ear design with adjustable padded headband
  • open-back, metal mesh covered ear cups for spacious and transparent sound
  • exceptionally comfortable fit with replaceable velour earpads
  • deep, balanced bass output
  • computer optimized magnet systems for minimum distortion
  • lightweight aluminum voice coils ensure accuracy and fast transient response
  • frequency response: 12-39,000 Hz (-10 dB/1 kHz)
  • impedance: 300 ohms
  • 10-foot detachable, Kevlar-reinforced, oxygen-free copper cable with 3.5mm headphone plug
  • includes full-size stereo plug adapter
  • weight: 9.2 oz. (without cable)
  • warranty: 2 years
  • Our 60-day money-back guarantee

    Features

    Overview: The Sennheiser HD 600 audiophile-grade headphones are optimized for high-resolution recordings, and are ideal for active listening sessions or master engineering work. They utilize several high-end technologies to provide superb performance in any environment.

    "Open-Aire" Design: The HD 600 headphones feature an "open-aire" design to give you an exceptionally natural, spatial, and accurate sound. Opposite of a closed, noise-isolating earcup, the HD 600s have high-quality, open metal mesh grilles behind the transducers for an extremely transparent sound.

    Internal Components: The headphones utilize a computer-optimized magnet system to minimize harmonic and intermodulation distortion. Neodymium-ferrous magnets give you optimum sensitivity and an excellent dynamic response. Extremely lightweight aluminum voice coils ensure excellent transient response.

    Headphone Cable: The HD 600 headphones come with a detachable, 10-foot oxygen-free copper (OFC) cable, reinforced with Kevlar fibers for strength and to eliminate contact noise. The cable is terminated with a 3.5mm miniplug, and comes with a 1/4" adapter.

    Storage Case: The HD 600 has a handsome, hinged case with cut-out foam padding for storage of your headphones and attached cable.

    Specifications:

    • Frequency Response: 16-30kHz (-3dB); 12-38kHz (-10dB)
    • Nominal Impedance: 300Ω
    • Sensitivity (1 kHz): 97dB
    • THD:<0.1%
    • Weight: 9.2 ounces

    Precisely clear and detailed headphones with an excellent look!

    Written By Bobby D, Canton, MI on Sunday, March 03, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    I cannot believe I am the first person to write a review for these amazing headphones here on Crutchfield. These headphones replaced my Shure SRH-840 as my primary headphones.

    Build Quality, Appearance and Comfort: If you're like me and cosmetics have some value, then these headphones will please your eye. The granite-like marble finish of the headband is made of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic. They feel extremely sturdy while maintaining a very light weight. The velour pads are extremely comfortable and the cups are deep, my ears have plenty of "breathing room". The headband extender is also very strong and requires some force to adjust, this is good because it will never lose it's position.

    Sound Quality: Being 300 Ohms they are absolutely stellar when amplified, still very good from PC/smart phone (clarity is there, but lacking detail). Hooked up to my Valhalla tube amp and Modi DAC, these cans absolutely sing. From Rock to Rap to Classical to Dubstep, these headphones produce details I've never heard before in my music. Since these beauties are open-back you will be able to hear a pin drop, sometimes I forget I'm wearing them if music is not playing. They leak lots of sound, so make sure nobody around you will mind the music they will most definitely be forced to hear. But because of this, the sound stage is very wide and open. The lows are smooth, the mid's are stunning, and the highs are angelic. I can't say enough about this 15 year old contender. It's a winner!!
    Pros:
    Extremely detailed clarity across the spectrum, neutral tone and no over-exaggeration in the sound stage. Very comfortable, sturdy, and lightweight. They look awesome and are definitely an eye catcher. Considering the cost of some other headphones, these are an absolute steal. Perfect, in my humble opinion.
    Cons:
    None. Except that you may dislike some recording quality of your music, not a fault of the headphone.....
