Sennheiser HD 280 PRO Professional Studio Headphones
The Sennheiser HD 280 PROs are professional-grade Studio monitoring Headphones with rugged, comfortable closed-back design built for professional monitoring, recording, tracking and DJ use. Sound engineers have been recommending these cans for years, and for good reason: They offer accurate sound, strong isolation and a tough foldable design that holds up well in both busy studios and live environments.
Sennheiser has led the way in microphone and headphone technology since the 1940s, engineering gear that has become a trusted part of studios, stages and broadcast setups around the world. The HD 280 PROs are no exception: They’re a reliable choice for critical listening, tracking and everyday monitoring, giving you the kind of controlled sound you need when working with microphones, studio monitors and recording gear.
Also, these studio headphones feature a closed, dynamic design with a single-sided coiled cable, rotating ear cups, collapsible construction and up to 32 dB of ambient noise attenuation.
Accurate Sound for Studio Monitoring
When you are working through the finer details of a recording, there is no substitute for a dependable set of professional studio headphones. The Sennheiser HD 280 PRO headphones give you expressive lows, clear mids and focused highs, making them a practical option for editing, monitoring and checking detail in a mix.
The HD280 Pro accurate, linear sound reproduction helps you make more confident decisions while working alongside your main studio speakers or recording setup.
Isolation That Helps During Recording
The HD 280 PRO headphones are built with a closed-back design that provides up to 32 dB of ambient noise attenuation. That kind of isolation is especially useful when tracking vocals, drums, guitars or other loud sources.
For vocalists, strong isolation helps reduce headphone bleed into sensitive microphones. For drummers, guitarists and DJs, it helps keep the monitoring signal clear when the room gets loud.
Built for Long Sessions
Comfort matters when headphones stay on for hours at a time. The HD 280 PRO uses a padded headband and around-ear design to support longer recording, editing and monitoring sessions.
The rotating ear cups and collapsible build also make them easier to store, carry and fit into a studio bag, DJ kit or production workspace.
Practical Studio and DJ Design
The single-sided coiled cable keeps things tidy while giving you room to move. A 3.5 mm mini jack with locking 1/4-inch adapter is included, making the HD 280 PRO easy to connect to audio interfaces, headphone amps, DJ mixers and other compatible gear.
If you are comparing DJ headphones and studio headphones, the HD 280 PRO sits nicely in the practical middle: detailed enough for monitoring, isolated enough for recording, and tough enough for regular use.
