Review:

The Sennheiser HD595 are a nice set of headphones which offer you superb sound quality. They have a nice fit and you can wear them for hours together and still feel comfortable. It should appeal to the younger, music-loving generation with the solid design and sturdy and durable build. It is very light at just about 9.5 oz.

The HD595 has a nice frequency response and is balanced over the whole spectrum equally. The sound reproduction is uniform throughout the graph and very accurate. You can just plug em in and start listening, there is no need to waste time fine tuning it. You shouldn’t need an amp, if you are using them with a computer or laptop, the volume is pretty high. They fit perfectly, and also block out some of the external noise. There is no noise cancelling mechanism though.

Pros:

• Sturdy, Durable and COmfortable
• Nice Sound quality
• Balanced Sound
• Good Frequency Response

Cons:

• No External Noise Cancellation

Our Rating: 3.5 / 5.
