Our take on the Sennheiser HD 560S

The Sennheiser HD 560S is an open-back, wired over-ear headphone built for critical listening at a desk. Its angled 120-ohm drivers give a neutral, detail-forward sound with a wide soundstage, and the lightweight plastic frame stays comfortable for long sessions. It has no wireless mode, no case and no inline controls, so it competes with other open-back wired headphones on sound rather than features. Reviewers and owners consistently rate it highly for its balance and value.

Questions and answers

Does the HD 560S need an amplifier?
No. At 120 ohms it runs loud enough from most phones, laptops and motherboard jacks. A dedicated amp or dongle DAC helps on weaker sources but is not required.
Is it good for gaming?
Yes. The wide soundstage and precise imaging help with positional audio in games. It has no microphone, so you need a separate one for voice chat.
Can I use it on a plane or train?
Not well. The open-back design leaks sound outward and lets cabin noise in, so closed-back headphones suit travel better.
What comes in the box?
The headphone, a detachable 3.5 mm cable and a 6.3 mm adapter. There is no case, pouch or microphone.
How does it compare with the HD 599?
The HD 560S is more neutral and detailed, with a flatter response. The HD 599 is warmer and more forgiving, and both are open-back and wired.
Is the cable replaceable?
Yes. The cable detaches at the left earcup, so you can swap it for a longer or shorter one.
Where is the Sennheiser HD 560S cheapest?
At eBay, for $139.95, 22% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
