Review: Unbeatable sound quality at this price point - I’ve been using the HD 560S for a while now, and they’ve quickly become my go‑to headphones for just about everything. Straight out of the box, the sound quality is brilliant! Clear, detailed, and with a sense of accuracy that makes every track come alive. The range is impressive, sparkling highs, deep, rich low end that feels full and satisfying without ever drowning out the mids. The bass deserves a special mention. On its own, it’s punchy and tight, giving music, films, and games a proper sense of impact. Explosions in action scenes and heavy bass lines in tracks carry weight without muddiness. The headphones lean towards a fun, slightly V‑shaped tuning, which makes them lively and enjoyable for longer sessions. I personally nudged the bass and sub‑bass up a touch with EQ, and the difference is phenomenal! It adds even more presence and rumble for those cinematic or gaming sessions, while still keeping the sound very balanced. For the price, the HD 560S are fantastic value. They deliver a level of clarity and immersion that’s usually only found in more expensive headphones. Whether I’m listening to music, watching a film, or gaming for hours, it handles it all with ease. If you want great sound clarity, accuracy, powerful controlled bass, and a fully immersive listening experience without breaking the bank, these are an excellent choice.
Review: best headphones i've ever owned - amazing sound quality and sleek design for a very affordable price. they are great for both gaming and listening to music. this is my first experience with over-ear headphones and i don't think i will go back. they are very comfortable and fit my ears perfectly.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what would be the best way to go about cleaning the HD 560S padding?**
A: I use a small amount of mild soap and warm water. Use a micro fiber cloth to gently wipe clean and leave over night to dry.

**Q: Can you get a replacement coiled cable for the HD 560s, if so where?**
A: I just wanted to say for future buyers - "As the cable is not removable the answer is probably no, but has it occurred to you to ask Sennheiser? They do have customer service you know." - This guy is wrong, they are designed to be removable, I have replaced the cable myself for a shorter one. I got it from Amazon, "1.5m Replacement Audio upgrade Cable For Sennheiser HD595 HD598 HD558 HD518 Headphones"

**Q: Are these compatible with samsung phones with usb c connection?**
A: Yes as long as you use an adaptor (usbc to 3.5mm)

**Q: I'd like to use these for running, can that work if I buy a shorter cable for them? Where can I get a (e.g. 1.2m) cable?**
A: I don't know why people keep saying this - "The cable is captive and cannot be removed from the headphones." - but you can replace the cable, easily, you need to twist it, it locks in. As for running, these headphones would be ruined by your moisture, they are designed for an armchair, not running.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ best headphones i've ever owned
*by P***R on 5 June 2026*

amazing sound quality and sleek design for a very affordable price. they are great for both gaming and listening to music. this is my first experience with over-ear headphones and i don't think i will go back. they are very comfortable and fit my ears perfectly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simply wonderful
*by M***R on 7 June 2026*

Bought these for critical listening and mixing. And they do an *excellent* job. For once, I think the "reference grade' soubriquet is justifiable. There's minimal attempt to enhance high and low frequencies here. You'll hear things in your favourite albums that you never noticed before. For a home studio enthusiast, they're perfect. Sure, they're mostly plastic, but in a typical home studio you can get away with that. They're not likely to get thrown around and abused. And the flip side of that is that they're very light and comfortable. A bit of a tight clamping force but this seemed to subside after a week or so. The nominal impedance of 120Ω - quite a bit higher than most consumer-grade headphones - means that you might find them a bit quieter than other headphones you've heard, but it's also rather unlikely that you'll experience sound colouration from higher-impedance outputs. Just turn the volume up a bit. I've had no problems whatsoever driving them plenty loud enough from any devices from audio interfaces to iPhones. For the current price of around £90, buying these is simply a no-brainer. You'll be glad you did. Solid five stars, no question.
