Absolutely Astounding

byutilizer Sep 6, 2003
8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Sonic clarity and balance on what matters most: midrange and bass; superb sound isolation.
Cons Snug fit at first, easily adjustable; slight hiss but goes away after two hours usage.
Recommended it? Yes

Coming from some 20 buck Optimus Nova 71 headphones that I thought sounded great to the Sennheiser HD 280s is an incredible jaw-dropping experience!
I ordered these from newegg.com, which I must say offers the best value and customer experience. Setup was simple of course and I plugged them... Read full review »

Why didn't they make these 10 years ago?

Pros Amazingly clear sound, great isolation, folding design.
Cons None, really.
Recommended it? Yes

I've used the Sony V6 and the newer 7506 for a total of 10 years, since first getting into pro audio. I'd always liked Sennheiser headphones, but they didn't offer anything for the pro. So last year at the AES show, I noticed that the new 280 was at the Sennheiser booth (and they were everywhere... Read full review »

Poorly designed in places...

Pros Powerful sound, good ambient attenuation. Single-sided cord and screw-on...
Cons Uncomfortable after long periods of use. Durability and design issues with the headband.
Recommended it? No

2 1/2 years ago I was looking for some closed-back headphones to complement my open Sennheiser HD600s, and came across the HD280 online after having previously looked at the HD25 and HD25SP. The HD280s look much nicer in my opinion, and I liked their ability to fold up and the DJ-style swivelling... Read full review »

best value in $100 price range

byginsumaster Jul 7, 2005
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros neutral sound, excellent isolation, bargain price
Cons sound could be more lively, faster. not for fat heads
Recommended it? Yes

My viewpoint is from an audiophile and live sound reinforcement viewpoint.

Background. I have been doing running sound at churches for 5+ years. I needed a good pair of headphones for monitoring during live recording. The HD-280 Pro fits me just fine.

Overall balance: excellent... Read full review »

Suprisingly good

Pros Unexpected clarity, and mostly, linaerity for the price class
Cons A few, mostly design (heavy), but you still get way more, more than you pay
Recommended it? Yes



First I must tell a story why I'm into headphones.Simply put, after certain age, and getting married and having kids, it's very difficult to keep old habits and hobbies, ecpecialy if they involve 100 dB of noise and bass vibrations solid enough to shake a house.Add sleeping kids and wife...

Pros Sound, looks, quality.
Cons Crazy coiled wire.
Recommended it? Yes

Previously I was using Audio-Technica studio monitor headphones (M40fs) because I got a great deal on them about 2 years ago. The only trouble was I couldn't wear them for very long because they fit mostly on top of my ears a little too much and they got really sore in about 1 hour. When I am... Read full review »

Pros accurate audio reproduction, 32db noise attenuation, sennheiser quality
Cons alot of pro audio stores sell out of these headphones!

For over 50 years Sennheiser has been producing top studio and consumer grade audio products. this new headphone was designed for dj's and enviroments where monitoring in high noise were present. As a DJ myself I was looking to replace my worn out sony mdr-v700. The sony headphones produced a high... Read full review »

Great earphones! (Make sure to give them time to burn in)!

Pros Sound quality excellent. Sound reproduction accurate. Sound amazingly vibrant and warm.
Cons Not easily portable. Reveals flaws in source material. Coiled cord.
Recommended it? Yes

I had read all the reviews before I purchased these earphones and I narrowed it down to the Sennheiser HD280 pro and the Sony V6. The Sennheiser HD 280 had a $10 rebate, so I went for those. I listened to them when I bought them, knowing they wouldn't sound great at first and they didn't. The bass... Read full review »

Great sound, but less than stellar construction

Pros Outstanding sound quality and ambient noise dampening abilities.
Cons Very poor headband construction, plastic disintegrated, currently held together with...
Recommended it? Yes

First off, I must say that I love the sound quality of these headphones. The external dampening of ambient noise is very good and its ability to minimize sound transmission to anyone around you is also very good. The dynamic range of the sound reproduction is also very good. Unfortunately, the... Read full review »

Pros Looks.
Cons Everything else.

Cannot handle high volume. They distort at anything near very loud levels. Very poor bass response. Unexpectedly bad.
Way, way overrated. Returned them the next day. Read full review »
