General

The Sennheiser HD 490 Pro Plus studio headphones serve up the optimal mix of sonic clarity, wearing comfort and reliability - everything you'd expect from a Sennheiser design. These headphones have been built to handle the complexities of contemporary music production, so you can expect the fully uncoloured response that supports honest yet dynamic audio reproduction, alongside retained definition, fullness and accuracy. Meanwhile, the open design adds a more spacious dimension to the sound and ensures improved comfort, even during longer listening sessions.

Clarity, Reliability & Comfort

Comfort and wearability are just as essential as sound quality and, as such, Sennheiser have given the HD 490 Pro Plus headphones a flexible and lightweight design that effectively eliminates any pressure points, completing a more ergonomic fit. Two pairs of ear cushions (one set designed for mixing and one set designed for production work) have been included and can even be washed after more intense production sessions and, when they eventually wear out, can easily be replaced.

Designed for Complex Music Production

To ensure the best and most detailed, clear audio reproduction possible, these headphones feature Open-Frame Architecture, where distortion and resonance is no longer an issue, resulting in nothing but highly accurate sound. Neodymium magnets boost both the performance and efficiency while the extremely lightweight voice-coils don't only improve the wearing comfort but support a more authentic and dynamic level of audio reproduction. Finishing in pro-grade Sennheiser-style, the HD 490 Plus Pros also feature a patented cable design that blocks any possible noise caused when the cable is moved.

I purchased 490 Pro as my all round wired headphones when I am interested in a comfortable wide sound stage experience. I am using them for gaming and it took a bit to assess them properly but now I know that I like them. There is a clear difference between producer and mixing pads ( I like mixing pads more). As I am interested in nice sound stage and resolution mainly when playing Apex Legends, mixing pads are offering that very well, the problem is that those pads are thinner and not comfortable (my ear lobs are touching the driver and the material is a bit scratchy on my face). As producer pads are better for comfort and really close in sound to the mixing pads, I have decided to use them and just EQ the sound while playing Apex. The rest of the features are perfect on these headphones and very well thought. I am still looking to purchase a nice balanced cable and maybe some third party pads.

Comme beaucoup de monde je fais de la MAO. Je voulais un casque de monitoring fiable et surtout léger pour compléter mon focal clear mg pro qui est lui même excellant mais a peut être le défaut d'être un peu lourd à la longue. Et de ce côté le hd490 est vraiment super léger et confortable ce qui permet une utilisation prolongée. J'aime son son, je le trouve bien équilibré et donne une idée plutôt précise de son mixe. Bon soyons honnête le focal offre un détail clairement supérieur "à mon goût" mais il coûte 4 fois plus cher donc rien d'étonnant. Cependant le HD a un rapport qualité prix vraiment excellant et même si je préfère nettement travailler aux enceintes je suis content de pouvoir régulièrement passer au casque pour avoir une autre écoute de ce que je fais tout en sachant que ce que j'entends est fiable et réaliste. Acheté en b stock j'ai obtenu un bon prix pour un article en parfait état et la livraison à été très rapide. Donc je suis satisfait.

Een TOP-headphone. Ik heb een Neumann NDH-30 voor het masteren omdat je daar àlles in hoort. Nu in combinatie met de HD 490 Pro Plus heb ik alles in huis om ook nog eens perfect af te mixen, want daar is de NDH-30 dan weer minder geschikt voor. Het is wel duidelijk dat ze allebei tot dezelfde Sennheiser-familie behoren. In vergelijking met mijn vorige Beyerdynamic DT-990 Pro, die véél te schel is, en het eindresultaat bijna niet in te schatte, is de aankoop van deze HD 490 Pro de beste keuze die ik ooit kon maken. En het van feit dat het een B-Stock headphone is, valt in het geheel niks te merken.

Mijn eerste ervaring met een open headphone. Ik gebruikte eerder gesloten headphones. Het is even wennen dat je meer van de omgeving hoort, maar het is, zeker bij langer gebruik, een verademing.
Ik gebruik 'm voor muziek maken (synthesizer-based)) en mixen en producen en daar is deze headphone uitermate geschikt voor. Uitstekende weergave in zowel hoog als laag; erg fijn bij mixen en produceren.

je kunt de kabel zowel links als rechts aansluiten, wat bij wisselende werkomgevingen erg handig is. De kabel zit daardoor (vrijwel) nooit in de weg als je bezig bent.

Er zat een voucher bij voor geoptimaliseerde mixing plugins, maar de link daarvoor werkt niet meer, Het goede nieuws is dat deze plugins nu gratis (zonder activatiecode) te downloaden zijn via de dear-reality site (moet je wel registreren).

Dit is met afstand de beste koptelefoon die ik gehad heb

Helder geluid. Zit super comfortabel. Voor gamers die van battle royal games houden: Dit komt het meest in de buurt van iems. Erg goede diepte perceptie zowel hoog laag als dichtbij.

Koptelefoon voldoet geheel aan mijn verwachting. Op mijn Samsung Tab S8 klinkt hij al goed maar op mijn Denon DH800 is het helemaal genieten. Erg mooi ruimtelijk geluid met een strakke bas.

Vind de koptelefoon wel strak zitten dus buig deze meestal een beetje naar buiten.
Ik gebruik deze alleen maar om audio mee te beluisteren, ben geen gamer.

Na een week deze koptelefoon te gebruiken gezien mijn oude (HD 280 Pro) na bijna 12 jaar de geest had gegeven ben ik zeker onder de indruk!

het geluid is echt geweldig en je hoort goed alle details.
de twee verschillende earpads die je er bij krijgt zijn ook super en je merkt goed verschil dat de Producer pads meer Bas afgeven dan de mixer pads. mijn eigen voorkeur gaat naar de mixer pads want die hebben voor mijn gevoel een beter geluidsprofiel, maar daarnaast zijn deze ook een stuk koeler over de lange tijd dan de producer pads.

De Case die er bij zit is ook heel fijn, alles kan er in en zit voor mijn gevoel ook redelijk goed vast.
en de extra 3 meter kabel die er bij zit is ook perfect voor opnemen e.d.

dit is tot nu toe de beste koptelefoon die ik (op)heb gehad.

Excellent casque avec à l'intérieur du coffret, deux longueurs pour le cordon (1,5 mètre et 3 mètres) et une autre paire d'oreillettes si besoin. Le son est de qualité, vraiment, je recommande.
