Does the HD 620 S need a headphone amp?

It works from a phone or laptop, but its 150-ohm impedance means a dedicated amp or a good USB dongle brings out more dynamics and bass control.

Is it good for commuting or flights?

It is wired and has only passive isolation, so it is better for home or office use than for noisy travel.

Can I replace the cable?

Yes. The 1.8 m cable is detachable and connects with a 3.5 mm plug, so you can swap in another cable.

How does it compare with the HD 600?

The HD 620 S is closed-back, so it isolates and leaks less, while the open-back HD 600 sounds airier with a wider stage.

Does it have a microphone or Bluetooth?

No. It is a wired, passive headphone with no microphone, Bluetooth or active noise cancelling.

Our take on the Sennheiser HD 620 S Headphones

The Sennheiser HD 620 S is a closed-back, wired over-ear headphone built for listeners who want open-back-style detail without leaking sound. It uses 42 mm angled dynamic drivers, a 150-ohm impedance and a detachable 1.8 m cable with a 3.5 mm plug. The steel and polyurethane frame with soft artificial-leather earpads is made for long sessions. Against open-back rivals like the HD 600 series it trades some air and soundstage for isolation, and its 150-ohm load rewards a decent amp or dongle.

What reviewers say

Owners treat the HD 620 S as a strong closed-back option in the HD 600 family, praising its detail and comfort. Some find it needs a good source to sound its best and note it is heavier and less portable than expected.

What people mention

Sound qualityPraisedOwners describe a detailed, balanced tuning close to the HD 600 line despite the closed cups.
AmplificationMixedSome say it sounds thin from a phone and improves noticeably with a dedicated amp or dongle.
ComfortPraisedThe soft artificial-leather pads and adjustable headband are called comfortable for hours.
IsolationMixedThe closed cups keep sound in, but passive isolation is modest next to ANC headphones.
PortabilityCriticisedIt does not fold and the frame is sturdy but bulky, so travel is awkward.
