  • In terms of style and build quality, these have to be some of the best looking and well-built headphones around. From the metal grills of these open-backed cans to the plastic and real leather lining of the headstrap, they’re a joy to wear. The fleece can covers add to the comfort and it’s hard to fault the overall package. The Sennheiser HD 598 comes with a removable cable. At one end you’ll a 2
  • The Sennheiser HD 598 may have an innovative twist-and-lock cable fitting but the 3 metre cable itself is too long for use on the street, while the audio converter means it’s too large for comfortable pocket stuffing.
  • For the money, the sound quality is amazing and visually you may want to show them off in the street but the cable and connection make them a little too impractical. If perfect sound pitch in the home is what you’re after then it’s hard to deny the Sen...

  • Wide "open-back" sound, Well-measured, powerful bass, Good with movies and games too
  • Eye-catching looks an acquired taste, The look comes at a slight premium
  • Call us boring, but we're not sure we prefer the bold colour scheme of the Sennheiser HD 598 to the standard black and grey, but any qualms blew away once we donned these headphones. The open, powerful sound is extremely versatile and they're comfortable ...

  • Abstract:  The first noticeable thing with the Sennheiser HD598 is its design. When all the headphones of the brands match the premium/high-end image of their maker with black or deep blue colours, the HD598 wears a beige/brown robe. Nothing like the Momentum Ivory...

  • Excellent soundstage, Comfortable, Solid passive isolation, Premium look and feel
  • Not travelfriendly, Headband slides around, Remote lacks volume controls
  • If you're looking for a pair of closed-back, all-day cans that provide a phenomenal sense of spatial awareness, the Sennheiser HD 598 CS are an excellent option...

  • Abstract:  The Motley Crew that lives in my headphone drawer was getting long in the tooth when I decided to add a widely acknowledged classic to the collection. The new acquisition was the Sennheiser HD 600, now more than 20 years and umpteen generations old, and h...

  • Abstract:  The Sennheiser HD 598 – a part of the company's much lauded HD range – is a pair of over-ear headphones and an updated version of the HD 595 which has been around for years. It looks much flashier than its predecessor – in fact, it is one of the most eye-...

  • Abstract:  Here at MajorHifi, we often receive requests for comparison reviews.  However, as of late we've been hearing more and more clamor to compare the newer Sennheiser HD 569 to the old HD 598.  Both headphones are currently priced at $179 (the HD 598 used to c...

  • Musically coherent sound, Comfortable velour earpads, Moving parts don't creak
  • Not especially rugged, Limited low bass, No carry case
  • The affordable Sennheiser HD 598 is styled differently from its famous and more costly sibling, the HD 600, but is just as beautifully voiced and just as insanely comfortable...
