One of the best open-back headphones we are talking about comes from Sennheiser, Sennheiser HD 598SR open-back headphones.
They are great open-back headphones and come at affordable prices. Also super soft and extremely comfortable with a headband cushion and an earpad soft.
The Sennheiser HD 598 SR most parts are made of plastic, which means they are maybe not durable. But make them lightweight, which is an advantage.
These are the excellent properties of these headphones which are suitable for listening to music for a long time without any fatigue.
Regarding the sound quality of Sennheiser HD 598 Sr, the good thing is that Sennheiser uses transducers use aluminum voice coils. They will deliver high efficiency and excellent dynamics including very low distortion. These are important components to help to ensure exceptional sound for all-genre songs.
Because the Sennheiser HD 598 SR is an open-back headphone style. Hence, you may be hearing an external sound that goes on around you. Also, sound leakage is one of an issue of open-back headphones.
Another thing that I don’t like is these headsets are unfoldable. So, it is not ideal for portable, For these reasons, The Sennheiser HD 598 Sr is not suitable for travel, even if they are compatible with almost all smartphones.
They are produced for enjoying at home or at your private place, not for the subway or public. If you can accept these inconveniences, the HD 598 Sr is one of the great open-back headphones you can find these headphones for under $200.
Sennheiser produces HD 598 headphones that do not just have an open-back (HD 598 SR) but also release a closed-back (HD 598 Cs) which both types have a similar price.
