You can fairly easily take these apart and detach the cable if you've got tools lying around, though Sennheiser no longer provides the schematic inside the box. The center image is slightly forward and up in my head, and left/right separation is pleasantly natural and wide, with no hint of claustrophobia.

I'm excited to check out the 300 Pro before the end of the year and do a full comparison, and I'm happy that Sennheiser managed to improve the 280 Pro in this light redesign. Leisuretec are Trade Distributors of Professional and Commercial Audio, Lighting, Video, Special Effects and Ancillary. The soundstage (the size of the perceived space, in which the musicians appear to be playing) is not as big as that of the Beyerdynamic DT series headphones, but it is not always a con. I remember being fairly underwhelmed by them when listening to music, as they sounded kind of dull to me.However, I often use it as something of a standard to A-B test similar types of pairs with, so it seemed appropriate to give a proper full-length review. Even at very high, unsafe levels, from a variety of sound sources, like a Marantz PM7001 stereo receiver, a Digidesign Digi 003 recording interface, and an iPhone 4S, the HD 280 Pro can handle extremely deep bass without any hints of distorted crackle. If you want a good-sounding wireless headset, then consider the Bose QuietComfort 35 II/QC35 II Wireless 2018.

So I'm not a huge headphone amplifier guy, I don't know, I've never been able to tell a huge difference; combined with the fact I'm a poor college student equals me having a cheaper DAC/Amplifier. Also, they don't have a microphone, but on the upside, if you don't need voice chat, then they could be a decent option for consoles and PCs since they will provide audio for both the PS4 and Xbox One. That, combined with their earcups that create a good seal around your ears, obstructs a lot of airflow, which makes your ears very warm even after a relatively short listening session. I've been producing electronic music for 5 years but never had a good, quality pair of headphones until I picked up these bad boys.

The only faults is if lacks a lot of stage presence, and they don't feel too warm, they feel a bit flat.

Not saying that they didn't sound well at first, because they did, but they did get a little more worked in with time. In a day and age where technology renders itself useless in a just a few years, Sennheiser is still selling hundreds of thousands of these headphones every year. But now, I'm pleased to announce that I'm going to keep going, and you're going to see more headphone reviews right here on World Bolding.The stereo field is ok but nothing like my monitors, which I find odd cause I thought that is what headphones are supposed to be really good at. I really don't think burn in is real, but these tended to just open up a little after playing for a few nights at medium level.
