    I use since 2006, it is therefore 8 years already. I have other models, but between it and me, it's a long story "love", who knows why? :)

    For its price, I find it excellent. That said, for the record, and because there is always relativized, a friend who tried it told me that it was "a pure dobe" compared to its Sony HIFI headphones 40 € ... Obviously with the HD-280 which has a very high impedance, the sound seems smaller and is far less flattering in the bass.

    I use this headset for listening details for taking his battery, taking his song, and in addition to mixing and mastering audio, music but also movies. In summary, I use it for almost everything, though initially I had acquired only for its sound insulation.

    Solid yes, since cash is still there and still going strong. As against the foams are destroyed in time. Fortunately, we can change them for € 16 a pair, it is rare enough to be stressed!

    Everyone, whether amateur or engineer, will have its preferences for sound, according to his own hearing abilities (there are not two people who hear exactly the same way). The important thing is to thoroughly know their own strengths and weaknesses as well as strengths and weaknesses of its hardware.

    I personally have a large hollow in the lower midrange and a slight depression in acute (due to age) and thus a tendency to push too hard these two areas. This headphone is fine with me, because there is not flattering at all in the bass. So I adapted and now I know how it should sound in the headphones to get the right balance.

    I had a 280 hd for several years, he finally give up the ghost.
    I went on the Ultrasone Pro 900 after different opinions ... BIG MISTAKE, I bought a 280 hd is better without common measure, and 4 times cheaper than the pro 900.
    I practice using headphones, I among others:
    excellent Sennheiser HD 600 (perfect for listening to mix or simply listen to the music)
    I also have rolls of STAX electrostatic headphones sr 507 with a tube amp (over € 3000 ...).

    So I comparables for neutrality headphones, the Ultrasone is unlistenable for me, the 280 HD is EXCELLENT and more isolated masterfully.

    This headset is underrated for 109 €, it is a sacred matter.

    This is only my opinion, but I urge you to listen and compare ...
    Good zic.

    Used for recording sound and listen to clean defects taken.
    Quite comfortable to wear, it is not tiring extended for a closed headphone listening.
    Exceptional insulation, virtually no repisse

    Very solid.

    I find the sound of this very precise and neutral headphones.
    I do not understand the reviews that say this headset is not low, on the contrary, they are strained, the serious down low, without the inflated lower midrange effect hollow sound, unlike the Ultrasone Pro 900 I has also, which for me is unlistenable.
    The acute medium is perfect, I am very satisfied.

    Very good for sound design/synth

    Sennheiser HD 280 ProPublished on 11/17/12 at 00:04
    These are very well-made and most comfortable headphones I have ever worn and can wear them for hours while twiddling and tweaking parameters in wee hours of night without neighbors thinking aliens have landed. These have in my opinion, the same neutrality in highs, mids and lows; exactly what I hear from my studio monitors with no insanely distorted bass nor aliasing highs--can hear everything clearly at ALL levels of volume. Very good bang for buck and am going to pick-up an extra set as a back-up.

Very good bang for buck and am going to pick-up an extra set as a back-up.
    Sennheiser have been sticking to what they do very well for many decades; mics and headphones, unlike many other manufacturers whom also side-step into making all kinds of speakers for sound systems--professional and commercial, and Sennheiser does this well.Sennheiser has never used the newest "seller-point-gimmicks" of having artists in certain genres "endorse a product" while forsaking their legacy. Have gone through a few other types in past that just to don't cut it when I am using multiple modulation sources/destinations in higher-end synths that also just happen to be of German origin.
    Sennheiser provides a print-out of the frequency response across spectrum and if one used that in relation to setting-up the bands in a wide spectrum equalizer for just regular listening of music, will see why these are indeed the way studio monitor speakers are in being "flat and equal" with no exagerated lows or highs. You simply can hear everything, even at very low volume. The true test was using them with my newly added Dave Smith Instruments Mono Evolver Keyboard that I now have polychained to a Desktop Evolver. True stereo path for a mono/duophonic voice where half oscillators are real analog, the other half digital, in-fact, wavetables--with true analog filterson both sides because this instrument can make the deepest juicy bass as well as in a good way crazily distortion laddened output hack highs--with these headphone not breaking a sweat with that and infinite possibilities therein.
    The noise isolating/canceling is very good and can see why DJ's and sound guys at the helm of the band on-stage love these as well.
    Only wished I had learned about these before going through a few other brands and yes, would purchase these for twice the going price. It's rare to be able to wear set of headphones for really long periods without feeling uncomfortable, nor encountering "listening fatigue", and Sennheiser makes/stocks replacement parts if needed for these, and yes, even for products of theirs still in-service from the 70's. Simply love them still--more than a year later, having put them through alot of synth sound programming. There's a reason the term "Pro" is utilized in product name!

    Sennheiser HD 280 ProPublished on 11/13/12 at 23:51
    The Sennheiser HD 280 PRO just got introduced to me a few weeks ago when I was in a local studio. I currently use a few different headphones that I am not too happy with so hearing the sound of the HD 280 Pro was “music to my ears”! They are circumaural headphones that you can fold up and take with you anywhere. They are very durable and will last you a long time. As soon as I put them on my head I notice how comfortable they are, I could where them for hours without them getting uncomfortable or irritating.

As soon as I put them on my head I notice how comfortable they are, I could where them for hours without them getting uncomfortable or irritating.

    The frequency response on them is 8 Hz to 25 kHz, they provide some really low frequencies that I really love. When it comes to bass in headphones I am very picky because sometimes headphones can really overdue the bass and that is great for just listening but when it comes to mixing a track I don’t like overdone bass. The bass on the HD 280 is very clean and crisp. It still has that low end thump to it, but it does not have a muddy sound at all. I am fully comfortable with mixing a bass track in these headphones after just using them one time. The tone is very consistence with all types of different music and styles.
    The come with a 1/8 and ¼ adapter and the cord is about 10 feet long making them great for live use as well as studio use because you can stretch them anywhere. These headphones are very affordable and I would choose them over any set of headphones that I have purchased in the last 3 years (and I have went through a lot of headphones). I am going to purchase a few pair of these headphones in the future for my studio. They are comfortable with a great sound, clean highs, well balanced mids, and warm low tones. They are a must have.

    Good but not good enough

    Sennheiser HD 280 ProPublished on 10/18/12 at 21:44
    The Sennheiser HD 280 PRO are an affordable pair of headphones that have a closed back circumaural technology. You can purchase these headphones for around 105 USD online. I was at first on the fence with the HD 280 PRO because I could not get a good mix with using them. But after a while I started to get use to them and then decided they weren’t that bad once I got to “understand” them. They are very comfortable and you can wear them for hours without them irritating your ears or head. The ear cups are very soft and have a nice cushion on them.

The external noise is at bay when wearing the 280 PRO, though they are not true isolation headphones you can still block out most of the external noise with them.

    One issue that I have experienced over time using the Sennheiser HD 280 PRO is that after long use with them the ear pads will get worn down bad. You will need to replace them if you use these as your main headphones and put them through a lot of wear and tear. They new ear pads will cost about 20 USD for a pair of them and they are easy to put on.

    The HD 280 is a decent set of headphones for the price, but I just really don’t trust them all the way because the low end is a little bit too much for me. It is clean, but it's over done, there is just too much deep bass in these headphones. When I mix I like to have a flat and kind of dull low end. The highs are clean though, and the mids are solid. But for the price of 105 dollars for this pair and then needing to replace the ear pads less than a year later that’s another 20 dollars. They really are not worth the buy, there are a lot of other brands that cost around 150 that sound excellent!

    Buy AKG 240s instead

    Sennheiser HD 280 ProPublished on 09/25/12 at 20:47

    These are over rated. I don't like any headphones that you can't do a basic mix down on. These type of headphone have a great deal of misrepresentation on the low end. I think that they boost the lows more than you really hear. They are not flat and that is what you need. I would get a pair of AKG 240's instead. There was no headroom in these headphones and that does not bode well for feeding hot levels or strong low levels at 40 to 60 hz. I don't pay attention to headphone specs, who does, they all claim to be flat from 20hz to 20kz but that is not saying much.

I don't pay attention to headphone specs, who does, they all claim to be flat from 20hz to 20kz but that is not saying much. Consider that with any headphones you have to consider what you are feeding them as far as signal and as far as what you are using them on. If you are feeding bass and drums to these headphones you fill find that they break up at the 40hz range. I don't get that from lets say a pair of AKG 240's. I live the fact that some of the new styles of headphones are cheap but if I am buying any phones that are near the 70-$100 range I again will move to the AKG's to be safe. You have to remember that there is no real consolidated view of what someone likes in a headphone.

    I prefer a set that you can hit hard and not have any distortion. Headroom and clarity are a must. These cans are clean and I don't have a problem with the cleanliness just the fact that they don't take a great deal of level for drums and bass. Use them for vocals and you will be fine. Many of our recording students get these phones and are into HIP HOP and even mix on these headphones. I notice that the bass on their mixes is not placed correctly and that is common on headphone mixing but in these phones your really not getting a full representation of even the basics of the mix. I at least use phones to hear the vocal placement or vocal compression just as a basic quick reference and not on all mixes. But, if i want to just cut vocals these will do for a quick vocal session. Not enough isolation for drummers and I would not use any headphone but the Vic Firth on or for drummers that need click isolation. I like headphones in this price range to at least have a flat frequency sound. To check headphones I always pump singers and kick drum at high levels and if the low mid like at 220 is distorting with about 5 db of gain I will only use them for simple vocal or voice overdubs.

    Great cans for your DAW and more.

    Sennheiser HD 280 ProPublished on 08/08/12 at 19:49
    I got these as part of a combo deal partnered with a two microphone set. I had a different set of cans I was happy with at the time and figured they would just be back ups when needed. Well, being curious in nature I had to test them out before putting them in the closet and well I was very impressed to say the least. These instantly became my primary set and my others were exiled to the self.

    For starters these are nice full sized headphones with a closed back design. The ear cushions are insanely comfortable and the head band is not uncomfortable. There is a coiled cord that comes down from one side. I am not a fan of wearing cans mainly because I do sweat a bit much. …

These instantly became my primary set and my others were exiled to the self.

    For starters these are nice full sized headphones with a closed back design. The ear cushions are insanely comfortable and the head band is not uncomfortable. There is a coiled cord that comes down from one side. I am not a fan of wearing cans mainly because I do sweat a bit much. I did tend to sweat a tad bit more in these than other sets I have owned but that truly is the only down side to them.

    The main reason I personally need cans around is for situations that arise regularly in my home were there is no way I can run any volume at all. I have small children and usually I get to record in the late hours when the house needs to be quiet. My usual complaint about the headphones I have owned in the past is that there always seems to be a coloring in the sound. Not a small amount but usually a big peak or valley of color that really pigeon holes the uses they are good for.

    The Sennheiser HD280 Pro headphones in my experience, while not perfectly flat, are the closest things to using a set of near field monitors. The tone is mostly even across the spectrum. The lows are full and rich while not being boomy. The mids are pronounced without being overbearing, they fit in the pocket. The highs are well accentuated and not harsh with nice timbre in the high end harmonic overtones. These are not only good for tracking but can be used to get a nice rough mix together that I found once I learned the sound left only minor adjustments when I was able to crank up my monitors. Feel free to use them for any other multimedia purpose as well, they sound great for general music playback and rule for listening while watching a movie.

    I love these headphones and while I have not owned a ton of higher cost headphones I feel I can safely call these a best value for the money. They have lasted me for more than a few years and see a ton of use in my home. They are a definite keeper.

I don't have to mention how important is to a drummer hear the rest of the instruments while playing the loudest one, with the only exception of the ear-piercing guitar solos coming from an amp pointing directly at you. These headphones besides isolating, what I can bet, yours overly worked ears, they can deliver a clean and accurate mix from, not only what the rest of the band is playing, as what your drum sticks are producing everytime you excite the skins of your kit. You can play with them for hours and they are super comfortable, and because of its robust and impermeable construction, it makes very resistant to sweat, what for a drummer, ends up being very important. I had headphones in the past that starting to literally desintegrate after long hours of playing.

    The 280 HD pro are in the market from a price around $150.

    <a href="http://www.glintonline.com">http://www.glintonline.com</a>

    Besides giving clean monitoring these headphone seat comfortably on your head and give a great isolation from noisy sources.

    With 8Hz to 25Khz frequency response, these closed, dynamic headphones are really well built. They are collapsable and come with a coiled cord.

    The comfort and quality of this headphones make them a great buy for various monitoring applications.

    2 months of use + DJ monitoring
    most: the strength (the HD200 is next gadget), insulation really appreciable when mixing on a big sound, the sound quite balanced and power handling.
    For DJs it is ideal because it does not have to push the volume very hard to hear.
    minimum: a little heavy on the head and strangled a little when you put it around the neck.

    I think a very good price / quality ratio

    Its cable coiled very solid and useful (it not work dessu all TMPS) exists in two versions: 1.5 meters and 3 meters, the tip is a TRS 3.5 which one is a gold tip plqué 6.35.

    When he was on the ears with a little zick 'in it, means more screaming his ERRF 2 meters.

    - This may sound balance, the guy! With a micro prampli acceptable, should any situation (drummer mad and deaf, costs solo live ,...)

    - At the sound, a word: it is nickel ... As said before, the treble a bit aggressive to beginners but nothing too serious ... (-DSOL-)
    Fidler enough for a "cost-up" (live), do not use even when mixing ...

    - The spiral cable is convenient to have a m'vite kilomtre more live and studio ...
    - Good practice is also that this headphones fold: not take up space!

    Comfort is not what is most enjoyable without being too sucks, it is widely playable.
    Circuit around circumaural ear after a while, you get forgotten.

    - on the other hand, a feeling that one discrtement whispered in his ear: one feels the HP too prs of the ear. I will say that the contact pressure too high (6N). I have also default on the HD202 (more pronounced.
    I'll add a little thickness of foam (like home), I think the problem arduira.

    - It's true that strangled a bit, so I ask when I mix (too bad, a would be more practical to keep the neck).

    - Also, I prfr a jack with an adapter 6.35 3.5 plutt than the other because, as I use it also for the walkman, I was always a little afraid of losing the adapter and find myself as a c ** in benefits. But nothing serious, I put a jack 6.35 and I bought an adapter, nothing too complicated I have to be a bit annoying but does have more "pro".
    I put him 10 for the use I make of it is really excellent. I use it to:
    - The sound system to listen to the solo headphone and it's clean, little or no means the sound system and can push hard if the need arises ...
    - The studio for the return of musicos is a real rgal, not even when I push repisse ...

    The default is not redibitoires: it is a good product.

    I thought he had a small bag (kit beauty!) In which he returns as a dad in mom, so he is happy.

    It has few competitors: LIVE SOUND, BEYER, VIC FIRST ... I have not had the opportunity to test the other but (given the CHARACTERISTICS) the air above it.
    Compared to the HD202, one suspects, there's no picture but the products are not comparable: the ranges are extreme!
    I buy more in the future.
    The quality-price ratio is excellent ...

    I will be fast because I just tried today, the score of 5 corresponds to a 9 / 10 for sound, clean and not "muddy" as on other models of the brand, and 1 / 10 for comfort! frankly, this price is the abuse! it seems to have the head is enclosed in a! after 5 minutes has become dsagrable, I guess after 2 hours !!!!!
    I have a HD 200, HD202 and HD212 one, they are more comfortable in terms of sound, we agree!
    shame, because it is closed and that's what I'm looking for, but I will not buy it .......
