(Part 2) Best products from r/sennheiser

I have both the Sennheiser Urbanite On Ear and the Urbanite XL Wireless Bluetooth and I listen to basically the same music as you. Their performance is fantastic, the bass is solid, and they are really comfortable. They're good for both indoor and outdoor use, but neither are active noise-cancelling; they're passive but work well.

I continued looking for better options until I heard back from Sennheiser's customer service. I found a cheapo pair that really ticked all the boxes for me, minus comfort and mic quality. They're a bit tight on the ears and the mic is a tad on the weak side, but they're working fairly well so far for what I need. They do a great job of isolating out noise while still sounding decent enough for my needs.

It looks like they're not advertised for the TW's anymore. Regardless, I own these in size large and they do exactly what I need. @Your question, I jam these in my ears and there's 100% no way for them to fall out haha. Also it's amazon, so worst case you can return them for free.

I'm between those and [these] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006NL5SM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER)
I know it's not a sennheiser but i'm hoping you could still help me out.

I know you linked something but reddit app is being difficult lol. It’s this pair: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01MYAC300/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_OQS9BbR73A7V4

They’re actually on hella sale wow. Black Friday I guess?

if you read the entire thread, I tested the USB adapter with both my older Game Zero's (from i believe 2014) and it works fine, it's only the newer model with the removable cable that doesn't work. All other settings are identical. The microphone literally has to be in your mouth + shouting to hear anything.

I have updated the drivers, still the same situation. It has to do with the new model of the headset, I heard back from Sennheiser and apparently the new model is 50Ohmz impedance instead of the previous 150 Ohmz that I have in my headset. They swear it doesn't affect the microphone, and only the Cans but it seems like there's not enough juice being pulled through when going through usb for the signal to possibly make the conversion.

the adapter is this; https://www.amazon.com/Sabrent-External-Adapter-Windows-AU-MMSA/dp/B00IRVQ0F8

Again to be clear. older model GAME ZERO's work with this adapter.
New model does NOT.

These ones fit the Momentum 3s perfectly

Basically, the 3.5mm jack you're plugging into isn't supplying enough power, while the USB was, so you'll need some sort of headphone amplifier. I use this thing with my HD6XX, and it's by no means at all great, but it's good enough!

GSP 600 is noise isolating, not cancelling. Essentially like cupping your ears with your hands. It can be upgraded with an amp/dac but TBH it's not going to make noticeable difference. These headphones aren't meant for their musicality.

The GSP 550 is self sufficient yes.

If you're wanting sound quality but the use of a mic then others suggest going with a mod mic type set up which attached onto the headphone.

I personally don't use that setup. I just have a mic on my desk and use my HD800S. It's all preference.

For better sound quality higher end gaming headsets aren't going to benefit you.

For me I have these because I realize it's not worth the money to me to go much higher.

The HD569 have a 2.5 mm jack. So you won't be able to plug the Boompro directly. You'll need this adaptor. But you might need to trim the plastic because the standard cable has a very slim connector (as you can see in the picture).

The HD569 are a good chouse in terms of impedance. I've seen 16-32 ohms recommended. But I am not sure if even these will be overkill for the output of the PS4 controller.

If this is too complicated, I would also recommed the HyperX Cloud II Gaming Headset. They have excelent reviews.

Thanks for your suggestion, I'll think about it.

Also, is this the velour pads that you're referring to? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MFDX4YO

If by cups you mean the ear pads yes they do. They pads are are clipped by a piece of plastic. But here is a link Genuine Replacement Ear Pads Cushions for SENNHEISER HD598 Headphones https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0084NNK4I/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_-qvJAb9SN1BB0

I use this amplifier to control the speakers at my desk (Headphones / Computer Speakers / Subwoofer; it lets me lower the subwoofer individually at night since I have apartment neighbors) and I was told at the audio place that I got it from that the difference between this and a premium headphone amp were negligble, and I bought it for my 6xx's. It definitely, noticeably (I'd like to put emphasis here) increased max volume from my desktop PC and Apple laptop. I also haven't noticed anything clarity-wise, but that is to my untrained ear.

I would recommend a adapter cable, not just the short adapter, this will take some of the bulk away and not put that much load on the minijack port. https://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-Cable-Adapter-Female-6-3mm/dp/B008JGWY2Y/

I got these from amazon and they work great.

I think they aren't thick enough and big enough. My ears hit the inside of the headphones as well as the edges of the earcups. I was thinking of getting these https://www.amazon.com/Brainwavz-Angled-Memory-Foam-Earpad/dp/B00ZY8PGJI/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8&th=1. Some people say they use them with the M2s. They look thicker and slightly larger.

This one is 20, I ordered one recently and it's fine.

I ha e used the CX 3.0 which retails for $US 55 but a quick Google Search I found them at $US 29 on amazon.com.
