The Sennheiser HD 600 are good critical listening headphones not meant for other uses. They're decently comfortable and have an above-average build quality. They also have a well-balanced sound with an excellent mid-range and detailed instruments and vocals, but they lack a little low-end bass, which might not be ideal for everyone. They also don't isolate by design, so they won't be a good option to use outdoors.

Our Verdict

8.1 Neutral Sound

The Sennheiser HD 600 are good for neutral listening and deliver a good, well-balanced frequency response. Instruments and vocals are clear and crisp, and the open design gives these headphones a spacious soundstage. Bass is a little lacking, but they will accurately reproduce the detail in high-res audio, especially plugged into an amp.

Pros
  • Good audio reproduction.
  • Open and spacious sound quality.
  • Stable and comfortable design.
Cons
  • Open-back design, so they leak a lot.
  • Poor noise isolation, by design.
  • Weak headband build quality.
3.7 Commute/Travel

The Sennheiser HD 600 aren't designed for commuting. The open-back ear cups do not block any ambient noise and leak a lot. Also, They're not portable and don't have a control scheme for mobile devices.

Pros
  • Good audio reproduction.
  • Open and spacious sound quality.
  • Stable and comfortable design.
Cons
  • Open-back design, so they leak a lot.
  • Poor noise isolation, by design.
  • Weak headband build quality.
5.5 Sports/Fitness

The Sennheiser HD 600 are big, bulky, and cumbersome. They may require an amp, which makes them not suitable for sports.

Pros
  • Good audio reproduction.
  • Open and spacious sound quality.
  • Stable and comfortable design.
Cons
  • Open-back design, so they leak a lot.
  • Poor noise isolation, by design.
  • Weak headband build quality.
4.4 Office

The Sennheiser HD 600 aren't made for office use. Unless you work in an isolated environment, the leakage will distract your colleagues.

Pros
  • Good audio reproduction.
  • Open and spacious sound quality.
  • Stable and comfortable design.
Cons
  • Open-back design, so they leak a lot.
  • Poor noise isolation, by design.
  • Weak headband build quality.
4.5 Wireless Gaming

The Sennheiser HD 600 are wired headphones and aren't suitable for wired gaming.

6.5 Wired Gaming

The Sennheiser HD 600 are below-average for gaming. They're decently comfortable, have a good sound, and have a low latency wired connection. However, they don't have a microphone for voice chat when gaming and have no customization options, which are typical for most gaming headsets. Also, they do not have the convenience of wireless design or multiple connection options for an optimized experience on Xbox One or PS4.

Pros
  • Good audio reproduction.
  • Open and spacious sound quality.
  • Stable and comfortable design.
Cons
  • Open-back design, so they leak a lot.
  • Poor noise isolation, by design.

Differences Between Sizes And Variants

The Sennheiser HD 600 come in one variant: 'Black'. Some users have also reported a silent re-release of these headphones. They're now made in Romania and have different ear pads, which may change their sound. However, we tested the older model and don't know how this re-release variant compares to our unit.

If you come across another variant of these headphones, please let us know in the discussions, and we'll update our review.

Compared To Other Headphones

The Sennheiser HD 600 are good-sounding, open-back headphones for critical listening but lack a few features for everyday, casual use. They're also quite comfortable but a little tight on larger heads. They have a well-balanced sound that represents instruments and vocals accurately but may be slightly lacking in bass for some and too bright on some tracks for others. If you're looking for open-back headphones with more bass and a wider passive soundstage, check out the Audio-Technica ATH-R70x. The Sennheiser's build quality also feels somewhat cheap for their price range, especially compared to some of the headphones below. Overall, they're one of the best headphones for music and a great choice if you love to listen to more instruments and vocal-heavy genres.

See also our recommendations for the best headphones for recording and the best over-ear headphones.

Sennheiser HD 650

The Sennheiser HD 650 are slightly better headphones than the Sennheiser HD 600, although not by much. The biggest difference between the two models is that the HD 650 are a bit more comfortable, so you can wear them for longer than the HD 600. They have pretty much the same sound quality, although the HD 650 does have slightly better bass and less treble. However, it's very hard to tell by listening alone. On the other hand, the HD 600 offer a better value for your money for about the same sound quality.

Sennheiser HD 598

The Sennheiser HD 598 are slightly better headphones than the Sennheiser HD 600, mostly due to comfort. The HD 598 have a better over-ear fit that does not clamp your head and feels very comfortable. They also have a slightly more elevated high bass which some may like since it adds a bit more punchiness than the HD 600, and they come with an additional cable in the box. On the other hand, the HD 600 are more balanced and will not sound boomy on some tracks like the HD 598. The HD 600 also have a slightly better build quality which should last you a bit longer than the HD 598s.

Sennheiser HD 599

The Sennheiser HD 600 and Sennheiser HD 599 are very similar headphones in performance, and the HD 599 may offer better overall value for most users. Their sound profiles are fairly similar, but the HD 599 are noticeably more comfortable and don’t feel as tight as the HD 600. On the other hand, they don’t feel as well-built as the HD 600. Some may find the HD 600 sound a bit more neutral.

Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO

The Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO are better critical listening headphones than the Sennheiser HD 600. The Beyerdynamic offer a better value thanks to their excellent build quality and great audio reproduction. They feel a lot more durable than the Sennheiser and have a slightly better sound that packs more bass. However, the Sennheiser have a slightly better representation of instruments and vocals in the mid-range and do not sound as sharp as the Beyerdynamic on bright tracks. They also have a slightly more spacious soundstage than the Beyerdynamic and come with detachable cables.

Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO

The Sennheiser HD 600 and the Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO are both great options if you're looking for headphones for neutral sound, and you may prefer either. The Sennheiser have an open-back design. Their passive soundstage is much more open and spacious-seeming, and they have more consistent bass and treble delivery, but their sound lacks a bit of low-bass. On the other hand, the Beyerdynamic are closed-back headphones with much better bass accuracy. They have a much more comfortable fit, isolate you from more ambient sound, and leak less audio. 

HiFiMan Sundara 2020

The HiFiMan Sundara 2020 are better for neutral sound than the Sennheiser HD 600. The HiFiMan are more comfortable, deliver audio more consistently, and have a significantly better passive soundstage performance. While their sound profile lacks bass, they deliver more thump and rumble than the Sennheiser. On the other hand, the Sennheiser trap much less heat against your ears. They're also much more stable and should stay in place during mild physical activities like walks, although they aren't intended for workouts.

Audio-Technica ATH-M50x

If you prefer a closed-back design for your critical listening, then the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x will be the better option. If you want an open design, then go for the Sennheiser HD 600. The Audio-Technica have a deeper bass that some will prefer. Also, since they have a closed-back design, they're a bit more versatile to use outdoors. They're suitable for commuting and the office since they do not leak as much as the Sennheiser  and block more noise. On the other hand, the Sennheiser  have a more spacious-sounding audio reproduction. They also have a more accurate representation of the mid-range.

Philips SHP9500

The Sennheiser HD 600 and the Philips SHP9500 are both great audiophile headphones if you like a neutral sound. Their sound profiles are very similar; they both have a very balanced sound, although the Philips can reproduce slightly more bass. They're also more comfortable for long listening sessions thanks to their spacious ear cups, but they don't feel as well-made as the Sennheiser.

Audio-Technica ATH-R70x

The Audio-Technica ATH-R70x and the Sennheiser HD 600 are very similar-performing audiophile headphones. While the Audio-Technica have a lower bass extension, the Sennheiser have more accurate treble delivery and a more neutral frequency response. However, they have a higher clamping force than the Audio-Technica, making them less comfortable to wear for long listening sessions. Their passive soundstage also isn't as wide and natural-feeling as the Audio-Technica.

Sennheiser HD 560S

The Sennheiser HD 560S are slightly better headphones for neutral sound than the Sennheiser HD 600. The HD 560S are more comfortable, deliver audio more consistently, and have a more neutral sound profile. However, the HD 600 feel better built.

Sennheiser HD 6XX

The Sennheiser HD 600 and the Sennheiser HD 6XX are open-back headphones with similar overall performances, and they're both great for neutral sound. The HD 6XX have a more consistent audio delivery across different listeners. However, the HD 600 are more stable.

Sennheiser HD 660 S

The Sennheiser HD 600 and the Sennheiser HD 660 S are similar headphones overall, but the HD 600 are a better choice for audiophiles who prefer a more neutral sound profile. Their bass and mid-range responses are nearly identical, but the HD 600 have a brighter and more present treble, while the HD 660 S are rather dull. The underemphasized treble of the HD 660 S may be preferable if you find sounds in the higher frequencies particularly piercing or painful, but, for most people, the HD 600 sound better-balanced overall.

AKG K702

The Sennheiser HD 600 and the AKG K702 are both open-back, over-ear headphones that are similarly suited for critical listening. While the Sennheiser have slightly less low-bass than the AKG, they have a better-balanced treble range and are more stable on the head. At the same time, the AKG are more comfortable and have a wider soundstage that's perceived as coming from in front rather than from inside the listener's head.

Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee

While the Sennheiser HD 58X Jubilee are very similar to the Sennheiser HD 600, they are slightly better critical listening headphones. If you don’t find them too tight, you’ll enjoy a slightly better sound with less bass roll-off, which adds a bit of punch to the HD 58X. They are also quite cheaper and will offer better overall value.

HiFiMan Sundara 2018

The Sennheiser HD 600 and the HiFiMan Sundara 2018 are both impressive audiophile headphones, though they have slightly different sound profiles. The HiFiMan produce more thump and rumble while slightly reducing the intensity of vocals and instruments. The Sennheiser sound a bit more bass-light in comparison, and they put more emphasis on vocals and instruments. The HiFiMan have a more natural soundstage and are much more comfortable, but there have been reports of quality control issues from the brand.

Meze Empyrean

The Sennheiser HD 600 are better audiophile headphones than the Meze Empyrean as the Sennheiser have a much more neutral sound profile, which some users may prefer. While they struggle to reproduce a thumpy low-bass, their mid and treble ranges are much more accurate and flat. However, if you're an audiophile who prioritizes a more high-end design, the Meze are significantly more comfortable and better-built. Their passive soundstage seems wider and as if sound is coming from speakers placed in the room around you rather than inside your head.

Audeze LCD-1

The Audeze LCD-1 are slightly better open-back headphones for neutral sound listening than the Sennheiser HD 600. The Audeze have a much sleeker and more premium-looking design, are more comfortable, and have a slightly better-balanced sound profile that's much more consistent among different users. On the other hand, the Sennheiser are much more stable-feeling on the head.

Sony MDR-7520

The Sennheiser HD 600 are better critical listening headphones if you want a wider soundstage and do not care about leakage. However, if you listen to your music at work, or in noise-sensitive environments, then the Sony MDR-7520 will be a better choice. The Sony have a better more durable build quality and than the HD 600. They also have a better bass range, and since they are closed-back, they isolate a bit more in noisy environments. On the other hand, the HD 600 have a more open sound that most critical listeners will prefer. They also have a slightly more comfortable fit, although they can be a little tight on the head.

Stax SR-L300

If you only care about sound, the Stax SR-L300 are better headphones than the Sennheiser HD 600 for music without low-bass. Their audio fidelity is better and more accurate. They also sound significantly more open than the Sennheiser. However, they are very flimsy and feel cheaply made. The Sennheiser are sturdier and will be more versatile due to their 1/4” TRS connection. You won’t need an amp and energizer to drive these as you would need with the Stax.

Beats Solo Pro Wireless

The Sennheiser HD 600 and the Beats Solo Pro Wireless have different strengths, and you may prefer one over the other. The Sennheiser over-ears designed for audiophiles. They're more comfortable, have a neutral sound profile, which some users may prefer, and a wider, more immersive passive soundstage. However, the Beats are wireless on-ears that are better-built and have great noise isolation, thanks to their ANC system. They also have an H1 chip, so you can seamlessly pair them with Apple devices.

7HZ Timeless

The Sennheiser HD 600 are better headphones for neutral sound than the 7HZ Timeless. While both headphones are decently comfortable and well-built, the Sennheiser are open-back over-ear headphones with a much more accurate treble response and a more open and spacious passive soundstage. However, if you prefer in-ear monitors (IEMs), the 7HZ have a planar magnetic transducer, which helps them reproduce a more thumpy low-bass. They can also block out more background noise and leak less audio at high volumes.

The Sennheiser HD 600 look very similar to Sennheiser HD 650, with a few differences in the headband design. These headphones have large open ear cups with a suede-like finish on the padding that gives them a premium appeal. They have a cool blue patterned finish that makes them stand out from the other models in the Sennheiser HD series.

Update 08/12/2019: After comparing these headphones with other models, we found them to be very tight and reduced their score accordingly.

The Sennheiser HD 600 are comfortable but a little tight. They have large ear cups that easily fit around most listeners' ears. They're well-padded and covered in a suede-like material that adds to their comfort level. Unfortunately, the headband exerts a little too much pressure on the head compared to the Sennheiser HD 650 and Sennheiser HD 598, which can get uncomfortable during long listening sessions. If you want a more comfortable pair of audiophile headphones, take a look at the HiFiMan Sundara 2020.

The Sennheiser HD 600 have an open-back design that allows a fair amount of air to flow through the ear cups. That and the soft suede-like padding means you can have them on for extended critical listening sessions and not feel a big temperature difference after hours of continuous play. Simply put, the tight fit will be more noticeable over time than the gradual temperature rise.

The Sennheiser HD 600 are big and bulky headphones that do not fold into a more compact design for transport. They're not made to be carried around often, and they don't come with a case to easily store them in your bag, which makes them less portable. The box they come in can be used as a substitute for a case. Unfortunately, it's far too large and cumbersome for regular use.

Build Quality

The Sennheiser HD 600 have an average build quality. The open ear cups feel dense enough to not crack or get damaged by a few falls. However, the headband feels fragile. Also, the metal frame that links the ear cups to the headband is connected by a thin joint that looks weak and feels susceptible to breaking under moderate physical stress.

Design
Stability

These headphones aren't designed for sports. However, they deliver a tight, stable fit that will remain in place during casual listening sessions and even during mild physical activities. They aren't ideal for the gym due to their bulky design, but they offer a tight enough fit to be stable in most situations. The detachable cord won't disconnect before yanking the headphones off your head if hooked on something.

The Sennheiser HD 600's frequency response consistency is good. Due to their open-back and ear pad design, these headphones have a very consistent bass delivery across multiple users and re-seats. However, their treble delivery could vary noticeably across users and re-seats, depending on the different ear shapes and positioning preferences.

The Sennheiser HD 600's bass is good. LFE (low-frequency extension) is at 57Hz, which is decent. Low-bass, responsible for the thump and rumble common to bass-heavy genres, is lacking by about 6dB. This will be noticeable but subtle. Mid-bass, responsible for the body of bass guitars and punch of kick drums is within 1dB of our neutral target. The high-bass, however, is overemphasized by almost 2dB, adding a bit of muddiness to the overall sound.

The Sennheiser HD 600's imaging performance is great. Weighted group delay is at 0.18, which is excellent. The GD graph also shows that the entire group delay response is below the audibility threshold. This ensures a tight bass and a transparent treble reproduction. Also, the L/R drivers of our test unit were very well-matched. This is important for the accurate localization and placement of objects (voices, instruments, video game effects) in the stereo image.

The Sennheiser HD 600 have an decent soundstage. The PRTF graph shows little interaction with the pinna and doesn't activate its resonances much. There isn't a deep notch present around the 10KHz area either. This means that although these are open-back headphones and may feel more open and spacious sounding than closed-back headphones such as the Drop + THX Panda Wireless, their soundstage won't be perceived to be large or located outside of the listener's head.

The Sennheiser HD 600 have poor isolation due to their open-back design. In the bass range, where the rumble of airplane and bus engines sit, they achieve no isolation. In the mid-range, important for blocking out speech, they also achieve no isolation. In the treble range, occupied by sharp S and Ts, they isolate by about 13dB, which is below-average. Compared to the HD 650, they have a nearly identical isolation performance.

The Sennheiser HD 600's leakage is poor. A significant portion of their leakage is between 400Hz and 20kHz, which is a very broad range. This means the leakage will be fuller sounding compared to that of closed-back headphones and in-ears. The overall level of the leakage is quite loud too. With the music at 100dB SPL, the leakage averages at 63dB SPL and peaks at 78dB SPL, which is a lot louder than the noise floor of an average office. The leakage is nearly identical to that of the Sennheiser HD 650.
