Welcome to the headphone world everyone does it! Trust me I’ve bought and returned way too many sets. Phillips x2hr we’re my first “audiophile” headphones and the 599 followed quickly after. I have bought way too many sets after that but for whatever reason I just love my 599s more than anything. Great soundstage, stupid comfy, reliable, solid sound but just a little ugly. I’ve gone deeper down the rabbit hole than a lot of others and I believe this should be one of the first audiophile headphones anyone should get. If these ever break I will instantly buy another set.

Nah I own both. I’ve had my 599 for over 5 years I absolutely love them and I use them more than any headphone for gaming. I find them more comfy than my 560s even though they’re similar. The 560 is in technical terms better but the 599 has a pretty good mid bass curve that sennheiser loves to do and I love it. Tbh most of the time I use peace apo and just turn on the premade bass setting. Those things just have the most relaxed sound to them that I could listen to for hours and I do. I own a lot of headphones and the 599 have always been my most thrown on pair. 599 for that price is great. I just think of them as different personally
