These headphones have one of the best sounding bass that I have heard from a pair of open-back headphones at this price point! The hd650 also had noticeably wider soundstage than the hd58x in all my setups. The second method (which I personally prefer more) is gaming. Only in the most sibilant tracks did I get to hear that familiar hiss when the vocalist is pronouncing the “s”. Yep I can see that you are a deaf guy, no offense intended. It's a modern reimagining of the famous Sennheiser HD650s. Fone de ouvido Sennheiser HD 598 por R$ 699,00, podendo parcela no cartão! Believe me when I say this: the sound signature is balanced (W-shaped in my opinion) with a slight priority towards the bass.

HD58x – If you are willing to concede a bit of detail for better bass depth and a bit more energetic signature, the HD-58x gets the call over the HD-6xx. Help Request. The 598 is in another planet in vomparison with that frankenstein made from residual parts of other models. Even though I won’t be taking them outside of my apartment, still I will rather have it inside a case than it rolling around on the floor! All the words used in this review are my own and this review is written in the most unbiased way that I could have done. The 58x is much more detailed and overall sounds much better. Again, like the HD 598SE, the ear pads are made of velour but this time, the pads are a bit harder, unlike the HD 598SE, which were much softer. These headphones have much more full-bodied mids than the HD 598SE and even though these have more forward mids than the HD 598SE, they never felt shouty and too much “in your face”. Basically, what an open-back headset does is let the sound get outside of the headphones through the grilles or slits of the headphones. 58X is a little overrated imo. I use hd660s on PC, hd58x on PS4. Again, in Sigrid’s “Everybody Knows”, Sigrid’s voice sounds so mellow and soft with the piano in the background playing a dark note with the occasional drum beats, the song was taken to a whole new level! You’re right about bass, the 58x actually has some, compared to the anemic bass of the 598. Sound stage refers to the distance of where sounds are coming from. But in these, I could pinpoint the source of the voice. Also, idk mate about the sibilance issue you found on the dt990. Sennheiser Microphones Everyone from professional broadcasters, to audio-visual technicians and even YouTubers knows that when you need a proper, high quality microphone, you turn to Sennheiser. So here we go! Maybe Sennheiser had a box with bad tuned parts and put it together to create this abruptness. If you plan on purchasing these headphones or any other high-end headphones for that matter, I suggest you get a good DAC/AMP to go with it. Sennheiser has done an extraordinary job on tuning these headphones. I anticipate it to have at least a carrying case along with these headphones. Also, when you are using these headphones for the first time, you might experience pain on your temple like I did. As for the soundstage, i have both the hd6xx and hd58x and i can say that the 58x has a sloghtly wider soundstage than the hd6xx. Even though these are open-back headsets, they didn’t give me that same “wow” factor I had got when I had first tried the HD 598SE. I mean for $150, you are getting solid bass, forward and energetic mids and top-notch treble performance. Sound demo will be coming up sometime … Is the enemy coming from 1 o'clock or 3 o'clock? They sound good but they aren't in the same league as the others. One is the well known CS:GO and the other is Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice (the latter is a much more immersive experience). At $150, these are by far, the best pair of headphones that you can get, period. If you want an awesome all around headphone thats the best for gaming, get the hd58x, hd660s. https://m.facebook.com/soham.sengupta.56, Contact me on Facebook for more info on this.
