Honest review
I have had about five AKG k702 headphone before I made the decision to buy the Sennheiser HD600, and I have had it on my radar for a long time,
I like the speckled version better from the 90's it is imo such a shame they changed that, but....it has nothing to do with the first impressions and experience I have with the HD600.
Compared to the K702 which is a cheaper, I was suprised that the wires for both ears are kind of close together when you put the HD600 on...
I did not like that at all and the fact that the wire is not tangle free is a second that will come due time and it will bother me just thinking about
it.. The AKG K702 has a wire to one ear and a tangle free 3m wire which is comfortable in that regard I like it more,
sound wise the AKG K702 is more open too and the mids are better, like mixing on NS10's , but the Sennheiser HD600 is fuller or better said has more low mids it seems but nearrow in stereo image, the reason why people like this headhone is probably because of this, low mid are renowed to hug your eardrum, they are the frequencies that make people say it sounds ''warm'' or ''full'' and they do, so this HD600 i will
keep to refference mixes and have an additional means to check my mixes. But to be clear, my main headphone will stay the AKG k702's for they sound more spacious and defined to me.

Monitoring standard
Great headphones, very clean for monitoring and critical listening. The only thing is that they’re slightly lacking on sub freqs. Everything else is great for the price range.

Amazing product by Sennheiser
I am using this headphone for two weeks and it's absolutely great. worth every penny I spent. I have another two high-end headphones but this one outperforms all of them in terms of audio quality. actually, when I listen to songs I hear sounds I never heard on those before. I would have been happier if this product had come with a shorter cable. I love this product and probably will buy Sennheiser products in the future. and I am pleased with the customer service provided by the thomann team.

Amazing headphone
This headphone is extremely comfortable and has a great sound. The only drawback for me is that it has poor isolation. Meaning that unless you are listening to music on the lowest possible volume, people close to you will be able to hear it as well.

Headphones
I bought these headphones because I saw a lot of positive opinions about them. I was disappointed with both the sound and built of these headphones. They are quite tight on the head, which causes discomfort after longer use. The sound is too flat for me, I miss more dynamics. From the looks of it, they seem like a cheap product. The cable in them seems to be very delicate. For example, Beyerdynamic headphones are half the price, very comfortable, have a solid cable and amazing sound.
