The non-fatiguing HD 660S2 gives people who love music an intimate way to connect more deeply with their favorite songs and artists. Breathtaking resolution and precision take you closer than ever to instruments and vocalists. Yet the sound is natural and balanced, never harsh or brash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThis warm, inviting signature combined with extended sub bass makes listening uniquely pleasant and rewarding. And with comfort this good, it practically begs you to keep going for endless sessions.

That’s exactly what’s different with this new S2 update. This time I do feel that people in 10 years’ time will still be talking about the HD 660S2, just like they did with the HD 650 and HD 600… As such it is getting our Recommended Buy Award this time, and the HD 660S2 now is featured on our Best Headphone list.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDouble the Sub Bass Heightens Your Listening Experience\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eUsually, audiophiles don’t get too excited about sub bass. It can easily get sloppy or boomy and become a distraction. And that’s a shame, because there’s so much more to experience here than just the gut punch of a kick drum. Did you know the low B of a 5-string bass vibrates at 30.9 Hz? Or that the lowest note on a concert piano comes in at 27.5 Hz? And of course, extended sub bass makes bass-heavy genres sound fantastic, too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eAnd that’s the magic trick here. In doubling the sound pressure at the very lowest frequencies, Sennheiser also retained extraordinary precision and balance throughout the sub bass, mid-bass, and beyond. Most impressive is how this affects the listening experience. Extension on the low end changes everything by creating more space for the sound. Against a deeper backdrop, highs feel more brilliant, the soundstage deeper, emotions stronger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eUpgrading Legendary Sennheiser Sound\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eAs far back as the HD 580, high-end Sennheiser headphones have inspired generations with their balanced, natural reproduction. Recognized as benchmarks for neutral audiophile sound, the HD 600, HD 650, and HD 660S all share visible and audible DNA with the HD 660S2. The revised coil of the S2, for instance, now matches the 300-ohm impedance of the legendary HD 600 \u0026amp; HD 650. This new coil also provides higher magnetic force and electrical dampening for cleaner impulse response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe surround is now more compliant, too, dropping the resonant frequency to 70 Hz. Considerable effort also went into optimizing the airflow around the transducer. There’s more sensitivity over the entire frequency spectrum because the magnet´s air gap works more efficiently now. Taken together, these measures result in even greater precision, speed, and resolution with double the sound pressure at the lowest frequencies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTotal Comfort\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe velour earpads of the HD 660S2 can only be described as a tactile pleasure. With just the right amount of tension for proper acoustic positioning and supple padding, the headband won’t draw attention away from your music, either. As an open-back design, the HD 660S2 gives your ears an extremely comfortable climate, even for super-long sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe low total weight and ergonomic headband rule out any potential discomfort on top of your head as well. Combined with excellent build quality made in Ireland, you’ll quickly grow attached to a listening experience that’s as physically pleasing as the warm, non-fatiguing sound at its heart.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sennheiser","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":45981238558893,"sku":"NEW-SEHD660S2","price":479.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Demo","offer_id":45981238591661,"sku":"DEMO-SEHD660S2","price":679.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/3708\/1773\/files\/SEHD660S2_01_2023__83431.1699889626.1280.1280_f5d66f37-7e09-4762-8585-286fdfa437c7.jpg?v=1778147623"},{"product_id":"sennheiser-hd-599-headphones","title":"Sennheiser HD 599 Headphones","description":"\u003ch3\u003eAffordable, Full-Sized Premium Headphone\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eStep into the world of hi-res private listening at a highly affordable price with the Sennheiser HD 599.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eTopping Sennheiser’s 500 series, this full-sized, premium over-the-ear headphone offers near-audiophile levels of sound quality and exceptional wearing comfort, thanks to the large ear cups and soft replaceable ear pads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\"The HD 599 is a great headphone,\" reports reviewer HiWire, \u003cem\u003ehead-fi.org\u003c\/em\u003e, July 25, 2024. \"You are getting a huge upgrade in sound quality at a reasonable price….

Open and airy, but never harsh, the HD 550 headphones are smooth enough to be your daily listen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLightweight, Comfy, Unobtrusive\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eHas there been an award for Most Performance per Ounce?
