Just curious why you came to a Razer forum to ask about Sennheiser headphones.

I'll bite, though. I actually have the HD280 Pros for work (as an audio engineer). They're not super top of the line, but they have a very natural sound - even as a reference headphone - they're comfy, and are great for recording, or even mixing.

The link you posted mentions that they are noise-cancelling ... they're not. They are noise-isolating to a degree, and there's a big difference. (The review also said that they were the best headphones for running ... there is no such thing as an ideal HEADPHONE for running. As soon as I read that, I stopped taking the review seriously, because whomever posted the review doesn't have all their facts straight.

I haven't used all the other ones listed, except for the DJ ones at the end. They serve their purpose, and a lot of the DJs I know really like them for the price.

A lot of the audio guys I know absolutely love the Beyerdynamic DT series. I've only tried a pair of my friend's DT990s, but they sounded amazing and were super comfortable.

Really, though, everybody's ears are different. What sounds great to me might sound like junk to you. Your best bet is to get yourself to a music store and try some out with some music that you know VERY well. The right pair will make itself known to you, whether it's a Sennheiser, Shure, Beyerdynamic, AudioTechnica, or even Razer (my Razer Hammerhead BTs are still my favourites for listening to the "Hamilton" soundtrack - just the right amount of bass in just the right frequencies for that particular album).

Happy hunting, and welcome to Razer Insider, @Flynn2019 !
