Reveal the truth in your music.
Today’s audiophiles monitor their music with measured purpose on a wide range of devices from headphone amplifiers, audio interfaces, computers, and more.
The HD 560S delivers the linear performance required by analytical audio enthusiasts at a breakthrough value, allowing the listener to have an honest look inside their music.
Open earcups for open minds
The HD 560S features an open-back design that provides natural propagation of sound waves.
The E.A.R. (Ergonomic Acoustic Refinement) angled driver alignment recreates the optimal triangular listening position you regularly find in hi-fi loudspeaker setups. This combination creates a wide, articulate soundstage without the need for room treatment, letting you hear the neutral version of your music unaffected by the artifacts of a confined space.
Signature sound
The HD 560S transducers are specifically tuned for accuracy, offering dependable A/B comparisons of components, remasters, and media formats.
The HD 560S delivers honest sound with deep bass extension (20-50 Hz), surpassing nearfield loudspeakers. Its new 120-ohm transducer uses a polymer blend membrane for linear excursion and brilliance above 10 kHz. An efficient drive magnet and advanced damping reduce distortion, ensuring clear, fatigue-free listening for discerning audiophiles.
Comfort is king
Although the HD 560S sound is rooted in the reference-level DNA of the beloved HD 660S, its comfort mechanics are based on the chassis of our ultralight HD 599.
A headphone this neutral deserves a distraction-free fit and a “barely there” feel on the listener’s head. Even the velour earpads have been carefully considered to keep all contact points soft to the touch. The open, around-the-ear design offers benefits beyond natural sound—the ventilated cup remains cool without ever needing to touch the wearer’s ears.
It’s all about connection
Because audiophiles frequent a variety of sources, we developed the HD 560S to provide an exceptional experience regardless of the playback system.
The HD 560S's detachable 1.8m cable offers ample freedom to connect to your setup. Its 3.5mm plug suits headphone amps and hi-fi sources, with a 6.3mm screw-on adapter for optimal performance on portable audio players and various devices.
