Philips Fidelio X2 vs Sennheiser HD 600

However, these are THREE HUNDRED DOLLAR headphones. The difference in manufacturing is completely unacceptable. Yes, I got these for $220 after tax, but for headphones that MSRP at $300, these should be perfectly manufactured. Although the font, steel, and leather differences do not concern me, the longevity of this product does

But those are my thoughts on the new 600. Now I'd love to know your thoughts in the comment section down below. Do you think you'll be picking up a pa...

So this is an extraordinarily popular headphone and I think a lot of people watching my channel already probably own this headphone and can vouch for ...

The original HD 600 is a legend in our hobby and its design and its sound has stood the test of time. This is one of the newer versions that has been ...

You can feel it. It also doesn't have an adjustable headphone strap so it's one-size fits all. I have a pretty narrow head so the headphone sits very loosely on my ears. Combined with the weight it can easily shift if I tilt my head down or backwards

I’m not a headphone expert, though I have been using them in one form or another dating back to 1977, so a good 40 years on everything from the old Koss white eggshell looking things to Sony’s 1980s on the ear to noise canceling Sony and Bose phones. But for music (hi-fi) my AKGs had been my reference until they were damaged. But this review concerns some AKG K-712s that I purchased at the same time as the Sennheisers specifically to test. In truth I picked up the AKGs after being disappointed with the HD600s; feeling like something was missing

I'm actually very surprised with them. I wasn't a big fan of the SHP9500s, but the X2s are built very nicely. Comfort is fine. I can wear them for a p...

Clear: It’s pretty crazy how comfortable the Clears are for how heavy they are. They are so perfectly balanced on my head that I do forget I have headphones on sometimes.

They sound really great for a portable option and the ANC is impressive. My travel headphones.

I went around one day in Sydney and tested all the earphones I could find in 3 stores and was just stunned by the performance difference in the Sennheiser compared to the rest. It was a huge difference.

Zeos said it best when he said if you could have $300 or these, buy these every day of the week.

Clearly the Grado's at $100 are the least expensive with the Momentum jumping up markedly to $299, while the more recently acquired Sennheiser HD600 hit the $400 mark. When a number of them are playing notes together the Grado's sounded smeared compared to the HD600s. Not unlike a poorly created JPEG from a digital point-n-shoot versus a well-made JPEG from an original RAW processed via Adobe Lightroom. Details are are lost in the former, but the latter does a far superior job of keeping the detail even in the process of losing information
