If you're a drummer an are looking for a sub $200 pair of headphones, the Sennheiser HD280s and 380s are the best headphones for the money. The sound quality and outside sound blocking is great too! The advantages of the HD380 Pros over the HD280s is that it's more comfortable and the headphone cable is easier to replace. The sound is also slightly better, but really, those are the two main advantages. The 280s can't be counted out, the sound incredible and are great for blocking out the sound of hitting those rubber pads. Both are great, I prefer the 380 Pro's.

Thanks Justin. Video was awesome. Got the 380s in the other day and they sound incredible. Worth every penny.

@65Drums 7 лет назад

Thanks man, I really like them

@davehein1418 5 лет назад

My 380 Pro headband started shedding padding after about 5 years of nearly daily use. I was able to get replacement headband pads and earpads from Sennheiser and they were easily replaced. Just FYI.

@curtisjohnese2484 6 лет назад

Thanks for the info Justin , I bought the 280 pro a few weeks ago for $100 and was kinda wishing that I had went ahead and spent the extra $50 but when I got them they sounded great and now that I've seen this review , I don't feel like I should have bought the 380s anymore. Thanks.

@MidWestConcertVideo2 6 лет назад

I've not heard the 380s, but I got the 280s and they've been perfect for my purpose - soloing channels at the front of house. They came in second in Dave Rat's headphone quest (he mixed the Chili Peppers and a ton of other bands.) I had a friend who made a replacement pad for my 280s out of suede and lambswool. I replaced the connector and the ear pads, but the basic mechanism of the 280s is incredibly rugged.

@russian_fsb_blyat 7 лет назад

"I CY" that made my morning 😂😂 I bought the 380 Pro headphones and found that when testing them, along with some KRK headphones that their sound signatures are very subjective. It really depends on how you interpret sound. Love my 380s though, so clear

@65Drums 7 лет назад

haha I had to do that :) you're right, sound is subjective

@JourneysByJay 7 лет назад

Totally agree. I started using the 280's back in 2007 and never looked back. I used them until about 2 years ago when I finally sprung the the cost for some nice in-ears. And make no mistake, the 280's sound much better than the in-ears... I went with in-ears for aesthetics and comfort in my videos. The 280's were an "accidental" find for me too, but what a great accident! I highly recommend them. Great review.

@65Drums 7 лет назад

Thanks for watching Jay :) What kind of in ears do you have ?

@JourneysByJay 7 лет назад

I went for the Westone UM-Pro 30's. Another good find, I think. They have multiple inserts to choose from in the package, which include isolation inserts. Low end response is not as good as Sennheiser 280's, but it's decent... and probably just about as good as low end response can get on an in-ear. Unless maybe I start looking into the $1000+ in-ears... but nah... that's okay. haha!

Hey Justin, great content! I’m always excited to see your next video. I bought a pair of Yamaha headphones that were right around the same price as those and I’m curious what you think of a comparison between Yamaha headphones and sennheiser headphones the sound quality of the Yamaha headphones are great but when I’m more curious about is the volume which ones are louder And can handle the most bass at a high volume Thanks a lot for all your informative videos keep up the great work man

@TheKevWig 6 лет назад

good vid thanks. I have some older sennheisers and they are brilliant too. Have you tried the 280 Pro II or any of the bluetooth headsets at all? Would be nice to have wireless but its a minefield choosing. cheers

@grahamcarruthers9337 7 лет назад

Hi Justin, When I play live I also need to hear the band so I use a pair of Bose open headphones and I also use a feed from the mixing desk to my line IN on my TD-30 module so I can also hear the vocals, I like how with the TD-30 you can configure the line in to just go the headphones. Perhaps you may want to look into that topic as well. Like the channel, good info, well presented, Keep up the good word.

@SilencedByYoutube 3 года назад

You can buy a set of replacement ear pads and the headband pad that is missing from that 280 pro for about $26 on Sweetwater. If you had the headphones for several years you're probably due for a pad replacement anyway.

I bought HD 280 pro around 4-6 months ago, I feel very disapoint with it. The same HD280 that I have around 1995 is sounds so much better, made me easier to scoring or mixing. But now its just an ordinary headphone with a fair details.

"Good Tip" Make sure you are clean Shaven," Designer Stubble can wear ear pads out quickly", If you wear glasses, make sure you are not loosing bass,, certain frames can create gap between pads,. Still love my Sennheiser.PXC 450s, changed pads once,

Seems like the 280's replaced the 380's. Not officially, but they're very similar and the price is pretty much the same. Maybe that's why they ditched the 380's.

I don't know if you've seen it, but on the Thomann website there's a competitor for the Roland TD-25KV. It's the Millenium MPS-750. It has three cymbals and and a hi hat pad, three mesh tom pads, a mesh snare, and a kick tower. I was told that you can edit the sounds too. I'd love to see a review or your opinion on it

@johnpruden9270 6 лет назад

Hey Justin, I just received the 280's from Amazon last week and I've been testing them out a bit. I love the sound quality! I'm not as crazy about how tightly they grip your head, but it's tolerable. What's driving me nuts though is the cable!! It hangs with what feels like 5 pounds of weight on the side of your head while you're trying to play the drums, and makes it impossible to turn your head. So far, the only relief I've found is from wrapping the cable around to my opposite shoulder and letting it (my shoulder) support the weight of the cord. But unfortunately, it slips off after a few minutes of playing. My question for you is... what do YOU do with the cable to make playing enjoyable (or even possible)?? Did you do the "surgery" and install a different cord? Thanks man! Great channel too! :)

@gustavogiacominpinho3987 3 года назад

Perhaps you can try attaching a small clip to the cable, and then to the back of your shirt or something? That might help

Hey Justin! One other downside of the Vic Firth's (I own a pair for my acoustic kit) is that they are heavy and you really feel the squeeze on your ears and head. I can't use them for very long without discomfort.

There seems to be a difference in the foam from above, and in some other things. Can you tell me if there is any technical or comfort difference between the two models? I have not met many people on the internet commenting on the fact that there are two models of this HS. Thank you.

the m50s sound better in a way that they are more hyped in the low and and high end but they are very tight on the head and even jaw for some reason.

@antoinettepriest 5 лет назад

the 280's sound far more powerful IMO overall than the 380's because of the SPL but you can use the 380's far longer without fatigue because of the lack of SPL. I used the 280's for years but they finally broke and I replaced them with the 380's expexting and upgrade. The 280's overall are my pick because of the SPL and the power that comes along with it as well as the higher impedance. the details with the 280's are as exactly as the reviewer said. You notice details alot easier with the 280's whereas the 380's are more user friendly. The first thing that comes to mind is the Stones track "Can You Hear Me Knocking". There are background voices in the beginning of the track that you probably never heard using a set of mediocre headphones. BTW I listen to my audio an a PC equipped with an ASUS Xonar Essence STX with upgraded op amps. "Choice! If you have the means, I highly recommend it." (Ferris Beuller quote)
