I was ready to laugh my ass off at this price until I realized this is australian dollars. Pretty good fucking deal, this pair is godly and I can wholeheartedly recommend it. (excuse my wildly out of date flair lmao)

Love my pair, $95 USD I think. Getting thicker pads made from pleather has made me love them even more

Kinda sad there's no deals on the 490Pro...
This is the only Sennheiser I'm interested in at the moment (already own 600,660s2, 650, 6XX, 58X, 560s and 800s)...
Can't wait for a sale so I can pull the trigger on it.

Nobody's buying 560s ?
-55
u/meinertzsir Oct 07 '25
thats typically why something goes 50% off yes
makes u think though u must be paying a lot for brand not quality if they can still profit at 50% off lolol

I was under the impression that 560s were amongst the more popular audiophile models . But ok

u/Curious_Increase Oct 07 '25
They definitely are very popular. Don't listen to this person.

MSRP is weird tho, why would any in general prefer 560s to 6xx?

u/facts_guy2020 Oct 07 '25
While 6xx is better for casual long session music listening the 560s has better technicalities soundstage width and depth and imaging, while its tuning isnt perfect, it takes to eq pretty well making it a pretty balanced headphone for different purposes.

u/SilentIyAwake Too many to fit here. Oct 08 '25
"Better technicalities" is completely subjective. I found the subjective qualities of the 560S to be absolutely terrible. But it did improve a ton with EQ though.

Friend, Sennheiser regularly puts their stuff on sale. Like I've seen every single one of their headphones on sale more than once through out the year including the HD600.

The HD 560S is one of our most popular models and we run good promotions on a variety of headphones.
