Reply to comment by shadowpapi9890 in 2 pairs of defective HD560s. Suggestions? by Customer-Artistic

Bought them from official Sennheiser store on Amazon. (One would think they are the same being sold on their site but could just be a B stock considering they are 30€ cheaper on Amazon but no proofs about it, just doing some hypotesis)

I just bought one from Amazon , i hope they don’t send me broken ones because i can’t send them back since I don’t live in the USA…

I live in Italy so mine were probably coming from the european store but still, best of luck for yours.

I contacted Sennheiser directly from their website, so I'll update when they'll answer (even tho I don't think they will enlighten me on this problem)

Sad to hear this. Are the headphones any good tho? What can I expect? Thanks

Definitely! As many online online say, this is probably one of the best entry-level audiophile headphone you can find on the market, it's quality/price ratio is definitely golden otherwise I guess one need to get over the 300€ threshold to get something better. Depending on your taste you may feel lacking of low-bass (as you know caused by the open back design) but nothing one can't improve with some EQ, as for me I'm still enjoying the default sound without EQ. In my opinion, sounds seems to be very defined and clear (I listen to basically any genre). I can say they surely are a worthy pair of headphones. Didn't tested for gaming yet but they should be very good there too.
