Today we have one from the DJ series of headphones from Sennheiser. These are headphones that have been bred keeping in mind its USP, that being sound monitoring. These headphones are mainly sought after by DJs and even by music studios. The HD 280 is specifically made for a really noisy environments, like your clubs or open air parties where there are speakers, air interference, people shouting, etc.

All this may sound like its some supreme set of headphones but they are just plain and simple professional headphones. It s just a matter of time before you know these headphones whether or not these are the headphones that you ve been looking out for; so read-up.

I would surely buy the headphones, given the chance. The HMD 280 PRO headset is not readily available for the PC, but this set is. I would buy professional headphones made by Sennheiser, with no worry. The fact, that one can get such headphones for Rs 6000, is good news. My other consideration in headphones is the snugz from the brand Sonodyne. If one looks at the best headphones available from Sennheiser, they are very expensive.

He he, if you are sonically deaf and would like to spend your money on Sony crap be my guest. These headphones are meant for serious listeners who appreciate music and don't mind spending money for that purpose. And FYI, Wireless headphones are sonic ally much worse than similarly priced wired headphones.

this review is shit.. There is absolutely no information, the author has no idea about what sound quality is and has no sense in what tests to be run.. "Good" in what sense? if being in a noisy place is the problem, then there are noise isloation headphones and earphones.. You don;t need DJ headphones for that.. DJ headphones are for a purpose, that you will never understand.

6000 bucks is still almost 1800 bucks above the US price, but these headphones were close to 12k a little more than a year back. They are recommended by many reviewers to be quite good for the money at their price point for most types of music.
