I bought these for TV watching and for that purpose they work well. I have significant hearing loss as well as tinnitus and when wearing these I can not only follow conversations, but can hear the ambient sounds in a scene, such as footsteps down a hall, the crunch of a piece of toast when an actor...

Clarity and balance of mid-range sounds for following dialogue

For a wired headset, the main cord is too short for tv watching; It should have been much shorter for use with an extension cable, or preferably about 6' longer for fewer connections

Pros: -Sound is very balanced, does not over saturate the highs or the lows. - Comfortable ear pads, does not chafe. - Cables are durable, I have snagged these many times on furniture. The force would break or cut open some lower quality cables. - Comes with both 3.5mm and 6mm headphone cable.

These have to be the most beautiful headphones I've ever had. Sitting very well in any case on my big head and the pillows are velor-like and very soft, memory foam typical. When it comes to the sound, I think they deliver very well, but I still ask others to turn to YouTube videos such as this one...

Audiophiles on a budget need look no further than Sennheiser's HD 569 headphones.

Lightweight yet rugged design; Smooth overall sound balance; Two-year warranty

Isolation from external noise could be better

Purchased this for my son to communicate with his friends playing PS4 games. He gave the thumbs up. He has tried a few microphones but is very happy with this one

The Sennheiser HD569, while relatively new, delivers a mature and high-value experience due to its roots going back a decade and more in the Sennheiser HD5xx line. Build quality, comfort, and styling are simply superb.

This is a pair of over ear noise reduction headphones. They come from a company who are stocked by high end and mass market stores, the former as entry level items and the latter as their top of the range quality headphone offerings.
