Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
The Sennheiser HD 280 headphones are designed for the professional who requires outstanding communication in their daily audio work. Regardless of the very noisy conditions you might be in, the HD 280 headphones help you get the job done by offering you excellent insulation from ambient noise with a linear, precise reproduction of the audio material. Comfort is also taken into consideration with the HD 280's. Soft, circumaural ear pads guarantee comfort over long periods of use. You can even replace all wearing parts if needed - single-sided coiled cable, ear pads & headband padding.

Amazon.com Product Description
The HD-280 Pro is a closed-back, circumaural headphone designed for professional-quality monitoring. Its exceptional attenuation of environmental noise (up to 32 dB) makes it particularly useful for use in high-noise environments, in outside broadcasts, and for DJs. Featuring rugged design and optimum sensitivity, the HD-280 Pro will deliver detailed and natural reproduction of music and speech with a wide frequency response of 8 to 25,000 Hz (-10 dB).

Owing to its collapsible ear-pieces, the HD-280 Pro is highly compact when it comes to transportation. And all parts that are subject to wear and tear--such as earpads, headband padding, and the audio cord--are easily replaceable, ensuring long life. The headphone's 9-foot cord is detachable, so if it wears out you have only to replace the cord, not the headphone itself. The cord is made of oxygen-free copper for pure, long-lasting audio transmission.

4 out of 5 stars Great headphones   November 21, 2008
these are a good pair of headphones if your looking nto to spend a ton of a pair of headphones. the only things i disliked about them is the band started to crack after a couple months.


4 out of 5 stars First Cans   November 18, 2008
Sound is pretty great to me. I'm not an audiophile and definitely do not care about sound enough to become one. I am also not scared to spend money if I judge one product to be superior to another. I budgeted about $350 for headphones (mostly for PC gaming) but most reviews steered me to these. My ears and the sides of my head were definitely feeling uncomfortable after about 4 hours of WOW. Ultimate Ears Super.Fi 5 Pros are already on the way.


5 out of 5 stars So far, so good.   November 18, 2008
I use these with my Yamaha DGX 620 Portable Grand and found a depth and richness of sound that I was not getting with the built in speakers. Bass tones in particular are richer, and treble tones more lively. Next upgrade is to get comparable sound in an external speaker system.

I've lengthened the head band so that it does not rest firmly on my head, and find that the earpieces are comfortable for extended playing sessions.

I went for the higher end product based product reviews and so far am quite satified with my choice.



3 out of 5 stars These Don't Sound As Good As Most Reviews Tell You   November 18, 2008
These are my first Sennheiser Headphones. I purchased them based upon the glowing reviews for their sound. I just also bought a pair of Sony 7506 headphones at about the same price range. The Sony's blow these out of the water. The 7506's have deeper bass, better imaging, extended treble, and are more sensitive. They also seem to mate better with my Yamaha receiver for impedance purposes.

The Sennheiser HD-280's will give you better sound than less expensive headphones, but both the Sony 7506 and V700DJ models are overall better in sound, sensitivity, power handling, and distortion.




5 out of 5 stars Very Good starter cans   October 15, 2008

I've gotten amazing sound quality out of these and they're really good for live mixing. I've used them in paid gigs about 5 times, they never let me down and they really are a god seal on my head, it blocks out a lot of ambient noise. I've also used it for field recording and interviews and you get a good response, no extra noise. Really good quality if you're on a budget or just starting out. They are a little tight so you may want to leave them on a basketball for a day or two to stretch them, but overall pretty comfortable too.
