![Sennheiser HD 450SE Wireless Headphones with Alexa Integration, Bluetooth 5.0 and Active Noise Cancellation [Amazon Exclusive]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71j1dzyRQPS._AC_SS450_.jpg)
Genau was man von einem offenen Kopfhörer erwarten würde. So wirklich linear ist er nicht, also nicht wirklich zur präszisen Abmischung im Studio geeignet, aber zum einfach nur Musik genießen perfekt geeignet. Der Preis (100-140€) ist wirklich sehr kompetitiv und sticht die Konkurrenz aus, meiner Meinung nach. Wenn man bessere Audioqualität haben will, muss man schon tiefer in die Tasche greifen und mindestens um die 400€ ausgeben für die üblichen Verdächtigen.
Die Verarbeitung ist größtenteils Plastik, fühlt sich aber relativ wertig an. Riechen tut er nicht, sehr neutral, kein chemischer Geruch oder irgendwelche Duftstoffe die etwas überdecken sollen. Für 100€ kann man hier wirklich nicht mehr erwarten wenn man bedenkt dass Plastikbomber mit schlechter Audioqualität 260€ kosten (Apple Airpods).
Audioqualität: Wer noch nie einen offenen Kopfhörer hatte der sollte sich auf ein völlig neues Erlebnis einstellen. Bass sucht man hier wirklich vergeblich, das ist das der offenen Bauweise geschuldet, doch man hat ein nicht vergliechbares Raumgefühl mit offenen Kopfhörern, wie als würde jemand einen Ohrenstöpsel herausziehen wenn man von geschlossenen zu offenen Kopfhörern wechselt. Der Klang ist absolut klar, hell und warm. Jedoch Vorsicht: Wenn man keine hochqualitative FLAC-Musik hat, wird man sehr, sehr bitter enttäuscht werden und nie wieder normale Musik genießen können. Diese Kopfhörer zeigen einem alle Fehler in deutlichster Weise auf! Das fängt bei der Auflösungsbegrenzung von verlustbehafteter Musik an und geht über Aufnahme- bis hin zu Abmischfehlern. Man hört einfach alles und wenn man keine wirklich gute Musik hat verdirbt das einem den Tag bzw. das Jahrzehnt. YouTube-Videos mit Mittelmäßiger Audioqualität ansehen wird zur Folter. Allerdings Spiele mit räumlicher Wahrnehmung (z.B. Counter Strike) profitieren enorm von offenen Kopfhörern und man fühlt sich als ob man plötzlich einen Wallhack hat im Vergleich zu handelsüblichen guten geschlossenen Headsets. Es ist ein wirklich großer Unterschied, man hört einfach alles. Für unterwegs sind diese Kopfhörer überhaupt nicht geeignet, offene Kopfhörer sind wie umgeschnallte kleine Lautsprecher und man hört seine Umwelt relativ gut und leider hört die Umwelt auch sehr deutlich was auf den Kopfhörern abgespielt wird. Hier lieber zu guten In-Ear-Kopfhörern z.B. von Sennheiser greifen.
Komfort ist generell sehr gut, allerdings geht es auch besser, länger als ein paar Stunden kann man die Kopfhörer nicht am Stück aufhaben, sie liegen sehr präzise und eng an. Es ist wirklich nicht schlecht, aber man kann sie eben auch nicht 8 Stunden ununterbrochen aufhaben.
Fazit: Preis-/Leistungsverhält stimmt, klare Kaufempfehlung.

I have been looking for ages for a comfortable headphones that fit my large head and ears ..No matter what I tried it always bothered me after an hour of useI knew it was time to upgrade my old cans to something that can actually get me into the serious audio game.My demands were simple .. I wanted something that can give me a nice experience while listening to music and gaming on the PC .I always liked Sennheiser products in ads but never tried them in person , and honestly their products were out of my range .. That's when I saw the HD 599s on amazon listed for around100 euros and I decided to grab them .The packaging was lackluster for a "premium" product listed from a "premium" company but that didn't stop me from admiring the low weight and overall fantastic design of the headphones .. The "Valour" cushions feel very nice and are wide and deep enough that my ears don't get mushed and don't hurtThe headband is padded nicely and has a wide arch that made me realize immediately it will fit my big ass head comfortably..They felt like they were designed with large heads in mind which is unlike any other cheaper headphones listed on amazon that make the sides of my head hurt.The clamping force on these is non existent and I can wear them for hours non-stop comfortably .The don't let my ears sweat especially now that we are nearing summer which is a nightmare for gamers like me !The sound quality while using the cable alone is excellent .. clear audio with just a little bit of bass and muddiness that will satisfy casual bass heads and electronic music lovers out there and have them not sound as boring as professional studio headphones.They are open back headphones which mean you'll hear most of the sounds around you alongside your audio and this is what you should keep in mind before buying these headphones as they are clearly meant for a "Me alone time" in a quiet room .Although I could tell they were missing that extra oomf and the sound stages could go even wider, so I bought a decent portable amp to drive them and there you go .. The best audio setup for me is done ..I honestly don't know how I was living my life before these arrived at my doorstep .Huge recommendations for any casual listener of Ambient,Electronic and Rock Music and Gamers who are looking to upgrade their audio game but don't want to spend hundreds of euros .This setup cost me under 150 euros with the amp and cables and it is the best money I've spent this year !

The clamping force on these is non existent and I can wear them for hours non-stop comfortably .
The don't let my ears sweat especially now that we are nearing summer which is a nightmare for gamers like me !
The sound quality while using the cable alone is excellent .. clear audio with just a little bit of bass and muddiness that will satisfy casual bass heads and electronic music lovers out there and have them not sound as boring as professional studio headphones.
They are open back headphones which mean you'll hear most of the sounds around you alongside your audio and this is what you should keep in mind before buying these headphones as they are clearly meant for a "Me alone time" in a quiet room .

SE AMATE LA MUSICA E IL GAMING FANNO PER VOI!

Perchè questa recensione doppia? Beh per poter fare un paragone e potervi consigliare al meglio cosa acquistare,le cuffie sono completamente diverse tra di loro.
Partiamo dalla sennheiser: suono caldo,piacevole e ricco. Pur essendo aperta i bassi non mancano (dipende dal dac/amp a cui la collegherete ovviamente). Sono cuffie a bassa impedenza (circa 50 ohm) e quindi possono essere pilotate anche da pc e smartphone senza un dac amp dedicato (ma vi consiglio fortemente di utilizzarlo,il suono cambia di molto).
Danno il loro meglio nell'ascolto della musica (di tutti i tipi) ,gli strumenti musicali sono separati in modo adeguato,ma il suono che ne risulta è un'unica onda,ben mescolata,senza picchi fastidiosi. Ha un suono più ''scuro'' più simile ad una cuffia chiusa,caldo.
Personalmente io preferisco questa cuffia per la musica rispetto all'altra,essendo riposante e meno stancante.
GAMING: eccezionali per il gaming (anche competitivo) grazie all'ottima spazialità del suono (vi consiglio di abbinarle a DTS surround lo potete acquistare sullo store microsoft per 19 euro).
Il suono più scuro e tendente alle basse frequenze la rende perfetta per ascoltare i passi dei nemici. (Testata su call of duty).
QUALITÀ COSTRUTTIVA: La cuffia è tutta costruita in plastica leggera,compreso l'archetto centrale! È di plastica leggera anche il finto metallo sui padiglioni. Le uniche parti non di plastica sono ovviamente i cuscinetti in velluto e il rivestimento esterno dell archetto che è in similpelle. Questo uso eccessivo della plastica rende la cuffia leggerissima e comodissima,ma le da un aspetto poco premium (avrebbero potuto fare almeno l'archetto in metallo leggero...)
La beyerdynamic è una cuffia molto più difficile da gestire. Premetto che non sempre la si può utilizzare attaccandola ad un telefono o un pc in quanto il volume risulta troppo basso su alcuni apparecchi (ha un'impedenza di ben 250ohm) e l'ascolto potrebbe essere non piacevole. Collegandola ad una scheda audio dedicata (dac+ amp) la cosa cambia.
La cuffia ha un suono molto freddo,spigoloso e a volte persino faticoso durante l'ascolto della musica ( alti molto pronunciati e spesso sibilanti,i bassi ci sono,i medi- bassi restano invece un po' indietro) ....ma.....la precisione è assoluta. I suoni sono estremamente puliti,aperti e distinti gli uni dagli altri ,in alcuni casi anche in modo fin troppo eccessivo. Per farvi un esempio in molte canzoni ho sentito il respiro del cantante (con la sennheiser non l'avevo colto).
GAMING: In gioco (testato su call of duty) grazie all'estrema precisione della beyerdynamic riuscivo a percepire suoni a cui non avevo mai fatto caso prima (consiglio di abbinarla a DTS surround,è possibile creare un profilo apposito per questa cuffia), unico problema è che avendo gli alti in evidenza conviene pompare i bassi nelle impostazioni del gioco (o tramite equalizzatore fuori dal gioco) per poter sentire meglio i passi (conservando la sua estrema precisione e ariosità del suono).
QUALITÀ COSTRUTTIVA: assoluta! Mai visto una cuffia tanto ben costruita! Metallo e plastiche dure un pò ovunque. Questa qualità però si paga in un peso maggiore e una maggior pressione sulle orecchie,molto meno comoda della sennheiser. PICCOLO AVVISO: se la usate con il jack grande occhio a non avvitare troppo l'adattatore fino alla fine in quanto fa contatto e il suono si distorce (si perde la distinzione tra canale destro e sinistro!). lasciate l'adattatore leggermente svitato!
A mio avviso le due cuffie brillano in base alle proprie esigenze:
la sennheiser è la scelta obbligata per chi vuole godersi la propria musica in alta fedeltà in libertà e tranquillità per molte molte ore senza stancare l'orecchio e (abbinate a dts surround) giocare a livello competitivo (queste 2 cuffie ovviamente stracciano qualsiasi altra cuffia ''da gaming'' sul mercato).
La beyerdynamic è una cuffia da STUDIO ,quindi la sconsiglio a chi è intenzionato ad usarla come una semplice cuffia da ascolto(salvo lavorarci un bel po' sopra con un equalizzatore per ammorbidirla) ,ma la consiglio VIVAMENTE a chi deve lavorare su delle tracce audio focalizzandosi su delle frequenze precise,inoltre la sua assoluta precisione può rivelarsi un'ottima arma in gioco.
Nel mio caso, amando le loro estreme differenze, le ho tenute entrambe!
AGGIORNAMENTO DEL 24 AGOSTO 2021 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fino ad oggi la scelta ''obbligata'' per chi cercava una cuffia aperta di qualità (e non una commercialata ''da gaming'') era appunto la 599 o la 990 pro.
Due ottime cuffie come detto nella recensione, ma non prive di difetti... La 599 pecca per un suono leggermente ''ovattato'' e la beyerdinamic per alti troppo in evidenza. Purtroppo per avere una cuffia aperta perfetta si doveva puntare alla sennheiser hd 660s (cuffia da oltre 400 euro) o una hifiman sundara (350 euro) entrambe con l'obbligo di amplificatore e dac dedicati, se possibile bilanciati. La soluzione? La nuova uscita sennheiser hd 560s!!! Davvero incredibile, simile alla 599 ma senza il tipico difetto di suono ''ovattato''. La qualità costruttiva è migliorata molto rispetto alla 599 (pur rimanendo tutta in plastica). Ho quindi venduto le 599 e le beyer , sono inferiori sotto tutti i punti di vista. Può essere usata anche senza amp/dac (ma ovviamente ne beneficia , consiglio qualcosa di economico, basta e avanza), è estremamente comoda e incredibile anche in gaming, entro i 350 euro (prezzo della sundara...) non troverete di meglio tra le cuffie aperte.
Andate a colpo sicuro con le 560s! STRACONSIGLIATE
