I have some HD555s as well, had them since 2010 I think. Use them everyday for work!
I’ve had the same pair of Sennheiser HD555’s since 2006. Buy a quality product and take care of it and they last.
Hi I have the sennheiser 555, money is not that much of problem, just a normal one and I can put a little more on that. Anyone have a suggestion?
I compared personally with second hand HD555. https://b23.tv/rzpbhVW. I don't know what op wants but it's better to know how bad would these sound
It's rare that electronics fall into the "buy it for life" category but Sennheiser's are just fantastic.
My younger brother is still using the sennheiser 555's i got as my first pair of headphones from 19 years ago. Had to replace the fabric around the ears twice in that time. Still perfect sound quality.
I have used 2 sets of headphones and 2 microphones for the last 19 years. Sennheiser 555's that I eventually gave to my younger brother after 10 years of use (got a new pair of 558's for Christmas that year) I have spent $28 on 2 new sets of ear foam. My brother is still using the 555s today. "Gaming" is a marketing term that means 2 things: 1. Cheap parts 2. Overpriced
I have the same ones and still use them too!
18 year old Sennheiser headphones (HD555) + wired 10 year old Antlion Modmic = no new "gaming" headphones in a decade
the least to start with open back that have good sounds quality would be $200 for some model of Senheisser with the HD 5 or 6 lines, hifiman stuffs. And beside, unless u enjoy listening with the gym crowd noises, don't even bother buying open back. One more things is u need a decent dacc/amp to drive those. Open back is def not versatile on most cases of daily use
Yeah totally agree with that, but the turtle beach was insanely bad. I have Sennheiser open backs and while the bass isn't anything to write home about, it's not a noticeable thing.
