The quality is top notch and I recommend the product for purchase.

my favorite headphones. the first ones worked for 3 years, the sound is excellent, it broke itself out of stupidity. Bought other cheaper and different firms. couldn't listen to them. went and bought again the same. I sit back and enjoy listening to my favorite music. Perfect for music lovers, in my opinion. smooth, clear, detailed sound across the entire frequency range. No mumbling. The bass is even and clear, at the same time they are not artificially amplified by the headphones. Thereforeā€¦

Pros
  • excellent sound throughout the entire frequency range. Thick quality wire
Cons
  • a little heavy. but good quality. The price of course) But for such cool headphones itā€™s not a pity.

No complaints, I recommend to buy.

- Bass is slightly lacking (in my personal opinion). Apparently, the monitor focus affects. But these are purely subjective sensations, everyone has their own expectations, depending on the goals and characteristics of perception. - The first day sounds bad, after "warming up" - excellent. - The ear pads at first press and cause discomfort, then they take the shape of the head and the headphones are almost not felt, it is very comfortable to wear. I didnā€™t have to unbend anything, but my head

Pros
  • - Great sound - Well protected from external noise. - Great volume.
Cons
  • - Wire like a handset. Not very convenient for home use. This is the only reason I didn't get top marks in all respects.

I'm impressed! Exactly the product deserves your attention.

Now I listen to everything Everything sounds more detailed. Hearing things I didn't notice before Someone wrote that there was not enough bass . I thought there would be a problem, but I donā€™t know what kind of people they are, when watching movies during explosions I do it quieter, they press the bottoms very well) I chose according to the tests, looked at the characteristics. For the price / characteristics came out top. I don't regret buying it! I'm certainly not a professional, but I wouldā€¦

Pros
  • Sound! If you previously had headphones less than 3k, you have a good sound source and your hearing is all right . you will definitely enjoy it))) It's like switching from classics to a good foreign car). Decent isolation from external noise.
Cons
  • It presses on the head (apparently for better insulation they fit very tightly to the head, pressure is felt), but somehow I started to get used to it . A conditionally short wire (it seems to be long, but twisted like on old phones) due to this is heavy and spring-loaded (pulls the head down).

Do not hesitate to buy, the quality is amazing for the price.

I bought headphones back in 2022, still made in Ireland. The modern Chinese version has a slightly lower quality plastic, and a higher price. But now, thanks to the Chinese, spare ear pads can be found for quite reasonable money. Conclusion - if you need strong and high-quality closed headphones - the choice of HD 280 Pro is very good. Modern competitors for similar money may sound a few percent better, but they cannot boast of the same design reliability.

Pros
  • + Very solidly made. Will not fall apart even with not very careful handling. I've had them for six years now. + Good sound. Very even frequency response. Wonderful microdynamics - convey even the smallest details of the composition. With a good player / amplifier / sound card, they are able to "pump bass" without losing details. + Excellent sound isolation - ear cups fit snugly and evenly. + A convenient cable with an equally convenient 6.3 mm adapter - the adapter is attached to the thread and provides excellent contact. + Owners of a large head will like it - the bow unbends even for the largest sizes.
Cons
  • - The rather large weight of the structure is not the most comfortable option for long-term use. - On a small head they do not hold well. I do not recommend for teenagers and people of a compact physique.

No complaints, I recommend to buy.

I recently got these ears at work and either I'm too spoiled with the Bose qc35, or I don't even know, but reading the reviews here, I expected much more from them. There is no soundproofing, although the box loudly screams "high ambient noise attenuation", but I often even hear my own pulse in them. But I didnā€™t pursue soundproofing, I was just surprised that it was written on the box, but in reality it was missing. Many here complain about the weight, but as for me, they are quite light (orā€¦

Pros
  • Good sound, good wire, workmanship
Cons
  • Poor sound insulation (if any), puts a lot of pressure on the skull

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

I took it as a game and was not mistaken! Yes, maybe this is not the most adequate use of them, but they just awesomely transmit sounds! For them, a good sound is strictly required, the default one will take away at least 80% of their merits. Although on it the sound will seem to you much better than it was with other headphones! Also (perhaps it seemed just not) they create a kind of echo in the ears, which only makes the sound more realistic and richer.

Pros
  • 1) Absolutely all sounds are heard. 2) The sound itself is clear and juicy 3) Headphones do not let in any sounds from the outside world at all. If a bomb is dropped near you and the air raid siren is turned on, you will not hear it 100%) 4) Do not let sounds into the surrounding space. Nobody will hear what you are listening to. 5) The wire in the form of a telephone twist is very pleasant and reliable. 6) Quality workmanship. Everything is reliable, pleasant and conscientious.
Cons
  • They are not here!. Of course, they can reap for someone, someone's ears sweat, someone's wire can pull their head, etc., but this is purely individual.

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good one.

A lot has been written about these headphones and I'm ready to subscribe to other reviews . I've been using them for probably 3 years now. IMHO the best headphones for monitoring when recording in the studio and just listening to music with a budget of up to 20,000 Compared with many models These are Akg and Bayers and other models from Sennheiser and Monsters headphones Even though the price of the latter is about 20,000, 280 pro remain the best for me!

Pros
  • Flat frequency response sound Good dynamics and sensitivity Comfortably sit Insulation is just as good Price!
Cons
  • Some have a lot of pressure on the skull I'm fine (but they have decent sound insulation and good low frequencies)

Great quality, happy with it one hundred percent!

It started with the purchase of a Philips SHP2500 daughter, I wonā€™t say anything good or bad, there was nothing to compare with. Then I bought my son a Sony MDR-ZX300. and the sound is better. but I wanted to find out what people listen to for reasonable money. Get into the web. They just donā€™t write horror. As a result, I came to the store put Sony, Philips, Pioneer in front of me, well, Sennheiser, starting with cheaper models, tortured the sales manager (although to be honest, I I alreadyā€¦

Pros
  • sound quality is excellent
Cons
  • rather than shortcomings and nit-picking: Ears sweat when listening for a long time on the first presses on the auricle, but fitting on the head solves this problem maybe a little lower price, but a good thing cannot be cheap. all

The quality is at the highest level, be sure to try it.

Monitor headphones and that says it all. At first, you hear too much too much and the brain gets tired. You can hear the singer slapping his lips, the creaking of his fingers on the strings, the clicking of a bow and much more that an ordinary citizen would be better off not hearing. In this regard, cheap "ears" that give a blurry sound picture, but do not allow you to hear sound artifacts - look better. When I bought studio monitors for recording, I thought that music would sound great onā€¦

Pros
  • Monitor. Linear frequency response. Made in Ireland, not China.
Cons
  • The thick twisted wire is heavy, it bends the head to the ground. Very tight fit of the ear pads, ears sweat in the heat. Because monitor headphones, they are demanding on the quality of the recording. All shoals of sound come out at once. On the new ones, some sound artifacts were heard, which disappeared after 40 hours of operation. There is no dip in the frequency response at frequencies where sibilants appear, and all vocal flaws are clearly audible. :-)

I bought headphones as a replacement for the dead Sennheiser HD 558 (which I was very pleased with). There is also a Sennheiser HD 202 worth up to 2 thousand, I can compare 3 models. There is no sound, I did not find any differences between Sennheiser HD 202 and Sennheiser HD 558. In general, a complete disappointment. In addition to the poor sound quality, the ears are very tired. The structure is very bulky. In general, I do not recommend.

Pros
  • Nothing
Cons
  • Heavy, uncomfortable, ears hurt. The sound is not studio.

Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

For a long time I was going to buy them for myself, and the other day I did an upgrade to my home computer, and along with the new hardware I took them. What can I say - the headphones are just super! True, as soon as I brought it home and listened, they didnā€™t really inspire me. Something they were missing. But after a daily warm-up, they seemed to have been replaced. They play just trash. Personally, my head does not get tired in them, I can listen to music or play games in them all eveningā€¦

Pros
  • Excellent workmanship (made in Ireland). Very high quality sound. Comfortable on the head. Convenient twisted (telephone) cord.
Cons
  • The sound depends on the location on the head.

Very high quality product, it's not the first time I bought it.

I am very glad that I bought this particular model. To be honest, I thought they would be mediocre. Surprised, delighted. Really, the quality is rushing from all the cracks, so I could not resist and wrote a review :) Model for a studio or home. For the street, I would buy with a different wire and more compact. After 3-4 years, the soft crap on top began to crack. But until it fizzles.

Pros
  • Low price for such quality (took for 3000). "Honest" clear sound (subjectively: all frequencies sound even, nothing is "twisted" - ideal for writing music). The sound does not merge into a mess (different frequencies sound confidently together). Low bass sounds pleasantly without strain, and generally sound, even at high volumes do not "fart". I listen on the laptop: the volume is more than enough (usually it costs 25-30%). In general, the sound quality is very pleased. The soundproofing is such that you can't hear yourself when you speak. The assembly is very high quality, strong. The quality of the materials was surprising: it seems that it is plastic, but it turns out to be some kind of space rubber-plastic. Inside - strong, flexible and elastic metal. Turn and fold. Removable soft top lining. Design. Real, such, true monitors. Without cheap glamorous plastic. They look like professional equipment.
Cons
  • A bit tight for my big head, but solved by removing the soft lining and arching in the opposite direction. The wire is heavy, but compactly twisted (you wonā€™t run into a chair).

Beyond praise! The product definitely deserves your attention.

Closed type, not suitable for all people. When listening, the sound background of the outside world practically ceases to exist. For work in a noisy audience - a good choice. If you don't have a quality subwoofer, then these ears are ideal for bass control, unlike the 500, 600 series, which are better in quality, but are designed for slightly different purposes.

Pros
  • Great monitor headphones. Used for seven years, Irish assembly. Headphones survived a lot of falls, elephant-like personalities sat on them, small children played with them (those who know will understand :) Ears are high quality and reliable like AK47.
Cons
  • About the pressure on the head has already been said more than once.

Feel free to buy, for such a price, the quality is simply amazing.

I've been using headphones since 2022. In general, very satisfied. They simply have no competitors in this price range. But the headphones have a number of specific features. Firstly, because of the design, they have simply excellent sound insulation (tested repeatedly at rock concerts and discos), but the flip side of the coin is that the headphones put a lot of pressure on the ears and, say, you wonā€™t be able to enjoy music in them for an hour (you can still listen, but it is unlikely toā€¦

Pros
  • Excellent sound, Excellent sound isolation, Convenient design for carrying (headphones are banal folded and take up little space in the bag).
Cons
  • Due to the excellent sound insulation (I checked it in the hall during a disco and a rock concert - they really isolate well, you can safely listen to any of the channels separately in the monitoring mode on the mixing console), the headphones sit very tightly on your head, which means listening to music for a long time is extremely inconvenient - after an hour, the headphones are corny pressing. In the summer, the ears begin to sweat. In addition, the headphones are somewhat difficult to tolerate loud music - they wheeze at the bottoms.

I'm amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

I bought the first HD 280 Pro in 2022, used it until the summer of 2022 (11 years!) And since then I have not changed my excellent opinion about them. I replaced it with the same ones, because the old ones began to wheeze a little on the bass at high volume. I work with headphones all the time, as I do video editing. Noise isolation is excellent - two children run around the apartment, you can't hear them. They sit perfectly on the head, the ear pads do not press, you can work for hours without

Pros
  • Buy only made in Ireland! Quality, soundproofing, great sound, convenience - all listed for a long time.
Cons
  • And walking down the street in these is not very aesthetically pleasing - too big (just kidding, they are not designed for this).

I can't stop being happy with the purchase, a very good deal!

I took it specifically to indulge in a virtual synthesizer for the iPad. Basically the piano. The sound is good. I didn't have to use the volume to its fullest. A pronounced hiss in complete silence, which is what the speakers do, is not audible. Outside noise is not completely isolated. It's good when you're alone in the apartment, you can not miss a phone call or a fire :) In terms of isolation, everything is quite interestingly done. For example, with an open window, the noise of the cityā€¦

Pros
  • - Convenient cord. - Made in Ireland :)

I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

I've been using them for over 5 years now and have never had a problem with them. The ideal choice, the only thing you need to do after the purchase is to buy a good sound card, because with the built-in one you will not understand the difference and will not see all the advantages of these ears. And even after the purchase, the ears must be warmed up, and only after that they will reveal their true capabilities to you. Headphones are not for portable devices, as they are still a little bulky

Pros
  • The best I have ever used
Cons
  • They are not here

The best thing for the money, Im glad I chose this option.

Bought these headphones for my wife. I myself use the Beyerdynamic DT 240 Pro. They are about the same class and the same price category. If we compare them, then Sennheiser has a more powerful, transparent and neutral sound. Great choice for audio work. Beyerdynamic for my taste more music lovers and versatile. Both are revealed when working with the DAC. At home there is an inexpensive external sound card BEHRINGER U-CONTROL UCA222, an expensive Resident Audio T4 and a "whistle" - TempoTecā€¦

Pros
  • Fits well and sounds great!
Cons
  • If you find fault, then the average quality of manufacturing materials. The cord could be lighter and more elegant.

A very high-quality product, I take it not for the first time.

The ratings speak for themselves. The sound quality is very good, I use it with the new Asus Xonar Phoebus. Most of all, medium and high frequencies are pleasing, every small nuance in the music is captured. Bass in general may be lacking by 100%, however, when listening to really "bass" compositions, this cannot be said. The bass level here depends on the location of the speaker relative to the ear, which is affected by the length of the rim (you need to select it) and its location on theā€¦

Pros
  • - Price quality - Sound quality - Ease of use - Good in everything. From music to games.
Cons
  • - After an hour or two, they begin to put pressure on the ears (although I have not seen serious "ears" that do not press) - Not much bass (due to thick ear pads that rest against the head, the speaker is not so close to the ear) - Dubious idea with "springy" cable. It can be convenient for DJs, but not always for a simple user.

Quality is top notch, happy with everything.

I'm not a big specialist, but the headphones suit me both in terms of price and quality, in my opinion everything is perfect, I've been using it for 3 months . and the wire is twisted very conveniently . it doesn't get confused . 01/19/2022. The wire gets a little tangled if you wind it around the headphones all the time when you're not using it! They work just as perfect as before.

Pros
  • they sit well, they fit perfectly on my big head, my daughter still hasnā€™t broken it, the construction is solid, it pumps normally on the built-in sound system, itā€™s enough for me, the best of what was . and the sound insulation is cool . no one bothers to chop in ku3__) ))
Cons
  • Cable 3 meters is not enough. from the camp to the sofa is not enough
