Those are a lot more expensive, and do not even come close in the frequency range. (They dont even list THD distortion)
But, they certainly would be better for portable travel / use.

The Open Back Senns are more for PC / Music / Gaming / Movies, at home, or in a closed-door office.

Nice that they have detachable cords though.

Its really about what you want to do with them, and what you are trying to experience.
There are always positives and negatives to weigh.

Thanks for sharing that, I never really looked into the stats. I just heard a pair was sold. When I am due for new ones I will check out the Sennheiser's.

Quick question, are you using a certain MP3 player, amp, sound card? My cell phone works fine but I wish I could get the same quality as my sounds card on the PC.

Honestly, most of my listening / use is on the PC. Watching youtube vids, movies, and listening to music.

I used to have a decent 16gb $100 Sony MP3 player that had a custom EQ, that was pretty damn good. (lost it) The HD 500' s do not have as high of an ohm rating as something like the 650s. The certainly were not as loud, compared to weaker / inferior drivers... and while they still sounded great... they could not fully hit their super dynamic sweet-spot, without a little more amplification. As such, I did pick up a mini battery powered amp from radio shack... and man, that was a huge difference... when using on that same mp3 player.

On my PC, I used a Soundblaster Audigy. The sound quality was sooooo much better than typical on-board garbage... and or generics. Even with my work PC.. Im saddened with its inaccurate audio nature. Ima have to slide a better card into the beast... =)

My phone, a Galaxy Note 2... I cant tell you how disappointed I am in the Audio Quality. I thought Id be using it like an MP3 player... but its just not up to par.

As for my PC audio... Im also typically running it through a stereo amp. Currently, its my old Pioneer surround sound amp I purchased when I was like 17... way back in like 1990. Thing is solid as a rock! =) Cant believe its held up all these years. Analog sound, not digital.

Of course not. And that is precisely why you will never find such things. You choose to limit your expressions and your life.
You place yourself in a little box, and that is what you experience as a result.

You are in fact, what you believe. Most of the life we live in, and experience... is In out own minds, hearts, and souls. Meaning, we are mostly living in our imaginations. Preconceptions. Assumptions.

Most of us are unwilling to drop the box, and actually search beyond it.
Which is why most will always be Lemmings, following the other Lemmings. And the results will almost always be, exactly the same.

Seek and Yee Shall Find...

Everything this guy says is a lie. He talked all kinds of garbage on mma forums. When he was challenged, he claimed that he couldn't tone down his art in the ring. He was afraid he would kill or maim someone.

Howard_Casto:
I'm glad you are in a better situation man, but I can see that your hard times haven't fixed that b.s. problem of yours any. I mean if you want to waste your spare money on headphones that you are paying too much for have at it. It would probably make better financial sense to just get a nice Sony set for around 50 or so but whatever.
