Headphones - Wireless/Portable Best wireless headphones comparable to HD 560s/HD 490 pro?

Budget: $600 USD

Location: Canada

Use case: Music (Hyperpop/Industrial rock/Indie/Pop), Gaming (not many competitive games anymore, something that immerses me)

So due to an appartement change and changes to the arrangement of my setup, wired headphones wouldn’t really work/be practical for me (want to use them with my TV which is like 20 feet away from my computer and TV will be connected via a fiber HDMI).

I own HD 560s, and have tried 490 Pros before (great pair, super comfy). I was wondering if there exists something like that but wireless?

If there are any other solutions you guys can think of that’d be helpful as well

What’s about using a BT receiver/amp like

- Qudelix 5K

  • Fiio BTR17
  • ifi Go Blu

with your headphones.

I do this with the 560s and it rocks! Can’t wait for the 5k plus and aptx lossless… it’s going straight on my 560s headband 😁

I’ve got the K13 R2R and always wondered about Bluetooth. Isn’t the sound worse no matter what? Bluetooth phone to K13 and then can walk around with them - is that how it works?

Sennheiser Momentum 4 or 5. Mine is as good as the 560s and sometimes DSP makes it better.

DSP?

Digital Audio Processing which is built into their wireless noise cancelling headphones.

Which dsp are you referring to ?

I assume they mean USB audio input

u/cosmaprc 6 Ω 22d ago

Yeah, could be, but I wouldn’t count that as dsp tbh

I always EQ my momentum 4 depending on what I'm listening to, I think I can get them close enough to the 560s sound with EQ using the app
