Sennheiser HD 280 Pro Circumaural Closed-Back Monitor Headphones - Brand New review
Amidst all the talk about new headphones introduced at 2017 CanJam and CES I’m reminded of my first “real headphone”, the . It was back in 2010 if I remember correctly and at the time it was the most I’d ever spent on a pair of headphones.

Okay for vocals - not good for mixing
I have an older pair of AKG headphones with great, flat frequency response. But those are semi-open, so there's noise bleed from the outside when I'm trying to mix. I bought these Sennheiser phones because of consistently high reviews and their closed-back design.

While there are some diamonds in the rough of the sub-$100 price point, the HD 280 Pros are not one of them. With significant issues in audio performance, the Sennheiser HD 280 Pros are a strange outlier in the Sennheiser lineup.

Sennheiser HD 280 Pro Headphones
Sennheiser's HD 280s are a perennial favorite among budget-minded audiophiles. And listening to their balanced, flat tonal presentation you can see why. If there's any hint of coloration (anywhere), I certainly couldn't find it. That's great if you happen to be mixing an album.

Extreme clamping force, very poor quality earpads, suckout in upper bass and lower mids (requires several minutes to seal to get better bass and mids and reduce hollow sound), and a bit too much highs around 7 and 9 khz making a slight zingy sound.

Sennheiser HD 280 Pro Circumaural Closed-Back Monitor Headphones - Brand New review
The Sennheiser HD 280 Pro are decent for neutral listening. They have a well-balanced sound with a good bass, mid, and treble range. Instruments and vocals sounded sufficiently forward if a little lacking in detail and clarity compared to some other neutral listening models like the DT 770 and the...
Pros:
- Decent build quality., Moderately comfortable.
Cons:
- Poor isolation., Mid-range heavy audio reproduction., Bulky, unstable design., Bass delivery varies significantly across users. Sensitive to glasses.

Good Headphones
Human hearing range is about 20hz to 20Khz. The fact that it's range goes down to 8 and up to 25 will not be noticeable to most. Clarity of audio quality is limited by both the output source and the audio signal.
Pros:
- They are very comfortable for headphones, not to mention they have very nice sound quality
- The coiled cord can prevent that loud noise that happens when something bumps the cord, as well as preventing it form getting tangled.
Cons:
- Much higher price than standard headphones
- A bit bulky, wouldn't rely be able to take them out anywhere
- (They're a bit expensive to be taking outside anyway) When compared to a 5 dollar set of headphones playing a compressed recording, the difference is not very notable compared to the price...

These headsets are perfect for semi-pro monitoring on music and for the aspiring musician.
The Sennheiser HD 280 Pro is a very good quality headset for the price. They do a very good job blocking outside noise and they also keep from leaking sound. The adjustable and rotative cups make them flexible and easy to store away.
Pros:
- Reliability

the HD 280 pro deliver a tight sound wih a flat frequency responce. Theu don't seem to colour the sound in any way. And deliver a true representation on the source audio.
