Sennheiser HD 620
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- the 620S by all accounts looks like a competent headphone with good soundstage for a closed back and a neutral sound signature.
- If you could increase the budget a bit I think the HD620S would be perfect for you
- I'm a closed back guy and consider the HD620s to be perfect (sometimes on sale around $250)
- Have a look at the Sennheiser HD620S. They have great passive isolation, relatively neutral tonality with a bit emphasis on the mid-bass.
- the Sennheiser HD620S are pretty good in technicalities and well-detailed.
Cons
- unlike other closed backs like the Fiio FT1 or the HD620S that are kinda bulky
- The Sennheiser HD620 are also good contender, though they're more on the clinical, analytical side. They have mid-bass bump but the execution of the bass is just okay, imho. The bass hits come off as quite soft, though it's clean and not...
- I auditioned the FT1, HD 620s, Aune SR7000, and even the DCA Noire X. None of them worked for me without huge sacrifices, so I didn’t keep any of them
- got myself the Sennheiser HD 620S. I'm no audiophile but to me they sound pretty similar to the point I wonder if I should just stick with my old ones til they completely die.
- The midrange and treble are okay, but honestly pretty good for a closed back headphone. They are better than the more expensive HD 620S for example.

The Sennheiser HD620 are also good contender, though they're more on the clinical, analytical side. They have mid-bass bump but the execution of the bass is just okay, imho. The bass hits come off as quite soft, though it's clean and not in any way muddy or bleed into the mids.

HD620S, need I say more ?

Sennheiser HD 620S. Lot of reports out there about it being one of the better passive isolation headphones, with pretty good sound quality as well.
