1 / Unpacking feelings / Overview:
The HD 280 Pro headphones were chosen by a drummer for playing the acoustic drum kit. The headphones are known for both their use in the professional environment and noise isolation that is necessary in the field.
The design is high-quality, and the headphones feel very robust. The collapsible design is perfect for traveling. Additionally, the product is equipped with soft earpads for a comfortable fit, and a very thick cable with a 3.5mm jack connector.
2 / Test outcome:
After 10+ years of professional use on a regular basis and for each drumming session, the headphones are still in perfect condition. Ear- and Headband Pad needed replacement after a few years only, which is perfectly normal. What is more, the smart design allows for these accessories to be replaced in order to bring the headphones back to basically brand-new condition.
The sound quality is beyond expectations. Clear sound, amazing reduction of external background noises without causing tiredness to ears.
QALITV considers the Sennheiser HD 280 PRO one of the best choices for every musician.
The quality vs. price is astonishing, and it is definitely a long-term investment.
