Product Description

Nothing gets you right up close to your sound like a good pair of headphone monitors. In a live setting, they let you monitor your music without distraction. In the studio, headphones offer the isolation necessary for pristine recorded tracks. Regardless of your intended use, Sennhieiser's HD280 Pro headphones have the features and performance you need to produce professional-quality audio.

Ambient noise reduction

DJs also rely on headphones to cue tracks before sending them to the main mix. When the bass is thumping and the dance-floor is packed, it can be difficult to hear yourself think, let alone hear the cue mix in your headphones. The HD280 Pro's closed-back design cuts external sound by up to 32dB, effectively eliminating distractions. DJ's will also appreciate the single-cable design for one-ear monitoring.

Superior Isolation for recording

HD280 Pro headphones are just as helpful in the studio as they are on stage. Musicians need to hear what their bandmates are playing to lock in the groove. but you don't want this sound bleeding into their tracks. With a headphone amp and enough HD280s for everyone, you're sure to get pristine results. The thick, padded ear-cups keep the monitor mix inside while providing comfort for extended tracking sessions. Weighing in at only 220 grams, the HD280 Pro lets you record all day without fatigue.

Convenient storage and long life

In small home- and project-studios, space is always a concern. Sennheiser's innovative design allows these headphone monitors to fold up for convenient storage, keeping your studio organized and functional. Rough treatment can damage any set of headphones, but virtually every component on the HD280 Pro can be easily replaced. Whether it is the adjustable headband, the collapsible earpieces, or the coiled cable, you can fix what's broken for years of quality performance.

Features:

- Collapsible, rotating earpieces
- Lightweight, sturdy construction
- Cuts up to 32db of external sound
- Padded earpieces for extra comfort
- Perfect for DJs, bands, or just everyday use.

About Sennheiser

Sennheiser has been building high-end audio equipment for over 60 years. The HD280 Pro headphones are one of Sennheiser's most popular headphones. Price-wise, they rank just about in the middle of the road: the HD205II costs less but has less padding and doesn't cover the ear completely (allowing more sound to bleed through onto recordings), while the HD25-1II costs more and is more specialized towards DJs, with its superior background noise suppression and extra-loud drivers. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Sennheiser products.

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (197 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Excellent pro/home studio choice."
Sound: Great, seems to warm up after initial couple hours of use. Detailed, more so than other headphones in this price range. Not quite as detailed /balanced as AKG271mk2s (slightly more bass). Feature: Compact, durable.. Folds closed to a smaller size which is nice. When on your head this is a very big headphone though, it cannot be worn under hoodies (for example). Ease of Use: Yes duh put it on. Easy to collapse, and 1/4" adapter screws on, making it more reliable and easier to keep track of. Quality: Very durable, feels luxurious. Pads actually fit my ears and head without pinching. It is heavy, but no problem really wearing it for extended sessions. Prior set in the studio lasted 3+ years including travel, hopefully this one will too. Value: Really amazing set given the price. Unless you want to go to Walmart and get the standard $99 set of Sony cans which, IMHO offer nothing in terms of sound and built quality by comparison. If you factor in sales/open box deals for this set it's a no brainier. Manufacturer Support: Unknown, not dealt with. Zzounds was great though. The Wow Factor: No particularly sexy. It's pretty ugly when worn actually, but who cares? It has great sound and good isolation. Of course, there's also a picture of the Nine Inch Nails frontman wearing hat appears to be HD280s to hammer out a recording, and I'd call The Fragile pretty damn sexy from the standpoint of sound design, which is really what these cans are for. Overall: The best under $250, might buy another pair just in case they 'update' it like they did with my beloved PX-100 (v1.0s).
Style of Music: Electronic, Acoustic

This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "Awesome Phones"
Sound: Well, I just bought these a few days ago and ill just say WOW!! After using consumer grade phones for a while these are definately an upgrade. Remember these take a few days to Break In...at 1st I was a little disappointed but after a few days of playing different types of music at about half volume and sometimes at 75% these phones have really began to sound freakin awesome. I mean really good...I gave them a 9 on sound because im sure there is something out there that sonds better but for me whooaaaa....I couldnt imagine it...Great job Sennheiser!!! Feature: What can I say its headphones...lol Ease of Use: plug it in and go.... Quality: No problems I can see but I don't intend on abusing them so they seem fine for my use... Value: In this price range I dont think you could do better except maybe some Grado's but I needed closed back not open... Manufacturer Support: Havent had to use them
Style of Music: Blues, Country, Alt. Rock
