Sennheiser HD 560S Studio Headphones

Today's audiophiles monitor their music with measured purpose across a wide range of devices, from headphone amplifiers, audio interfaces, computers, and more. The HD 560S delivers the linear performance required by analytical audio enthusiasts at a breakthrough value, allowing the listener to have an honest look inside their music, whether for pleasure or productivity.

The HD 560S features an open-back design that provides natural propagation of sound waves. The angular E.A.R. (Ergonomic Acoustic Refinement) driver alignment recreates the optimal triangular listening position found in high-fidelity speaker setups and top-tier recording studios. This combination creates a broad and articulated soundstage without the need for room treatment, allowing you to hear the neutral version of your music unaffected by the artifacts of a confined space.

The HD 560S transducers are specifically tuned for precision, offering reliable A/B comparisons of components, mixes, and media formats. The entire frequency range is honest, complemented by a smooth and deep bass extension that reveals what near-field speakers often struggle to reproduce, especially between 20 and 50 Hz. The 120-ohm transducer is entirely new, with a specialized polymer blend in its membrane for linear excursion and enhanced brilliance above 10 Hz. The drive magnet offers highly efficient power while its sophisticated damping system manages ventilation - this combination produces deeper bass while mitigating the distortion that otherwise affects clarity - a difference only the most discerning listeners can appreciate. Whether you're grading a new high-resolution master or reviewing a classic audiophile preamp, the HD 560S offers fatigue-free listening you can rely on.
