[0.115 lb] In searching for a new pair of headphones that would have better sound isolation than my usual pair, I tried on the Sennheiser HD 300 Pro headphones at a local gear shop and knew they were the ones. I work from home and share an office space with my housemate who frequently takes work calls and meetings; these headphones mean that I can put on music, a show, or a movie and not be distracted by the calls while I work. They're also useful for recording, since the design of the headphone results in very little - if any - audio leak from the cups. I also haven't noticed any pressure issues from long wear sessions, and can wear them with my glasses without feeling compressed. The audio quality is clear and while I ended up downloading an EQ add-on for my PC, I would also be happy to use them as-is.


All in all, I am very happy with my purchase. I will be curious to see how these headphones hold up over time and how soon the ear pads will need to be replaced. My wallet wishes that these were sub-$150 rather than $200, but compared to everything else I've tried at this price point and above, they have been well worth the purchase and suit my needs.

[0.115 lb] These headphones are comfortable, cancel outside noises and put me right into the place where I can create and produce. All at a really reasonable price.

[0.115 lb] Two minute install and just like new again. Tried 2 ebay and amazon sets that said they'd work....nope.

[0.115 lb] I tried all monitor headphones at the store. This is the one I can wear and listen for a long time, and has the sound that motivates me to work on my project! I I really love it. But it's a little odd-looking when you wear it.

[0.115 lb] The headset works well for broadcast sports production applications. I purchased this to use at a series of games I was covering at a venue that required a four-pin XLR female connector. The audio was clear, for both the headsets and the mic, as it should be at the highest level of production work.


The build quality was good, but you'll want to take care of this headset because it's more fragile than other models in this price range. I purchased separately a headphone travel case and I recommend you do the same. I'm confident that the headset will last for years if combined with a hard shell travel case.


I haven't had the need to change out the connector type, but it looks simple enough should I need to change connectors at some point. Also, I haven't tested the volume limiter but the volume levels were fine the times that I've used the headset. In my opinion, it seems to be working as advertised and knocking down spikes in the volume.


Overall, I would recommend this for broadcast production applications where this will be your personal headset. It will serve you well and give you a comfortable, reliable headset with clear audio.


I wouldn't recommend this headset for situations where you're buying it for other people to use because I could see someone overtightening the tension screw on the mic and stripping that out. It would probably be better to buy a cheaper headset for those situations and use the money you saved for a replacement headset when someone breaks the cheap one. Or, look at some of the other options out there in this price range that are more robust. They exist, but they'll also cost a bit more and that cost can add up if you're purchasing multiple units at once.

[0.115 lb] Pretty much blows the HD280 away at all frequencies especially the low end, sweet mids and highs, more like an audiophile headphone at a reasonable price, highly recommend them.

[0.115 lb] This headset is amazing..

[0.115 lb] The Sennheiser HD300 Pro headphones have the clarity and accuracy that any audiophile would opt for. In addition, the
closed back design is perfect for noisy environments. They fit snugly without unnecessary compression. Dollar for dollar, they are a great value.

[0.115 lb] Simply put, these are the best studio headphones I’ve ever had. Thank you!

[0.115 lb] This headset has worked awesome! They are comfortable on my head and the sound is crystal clear.
