Our Verdict

Philips Fidelio X2HR

Sennheiser HD 560S

The Philips Fidelio X2HR and Sennheiser HD 560S have different strengths but share similar open-backed designs that lack noise isolation. The Sennheiser have a much more stable fit and exhibit less audio distortion. Conversely, the Philips are more sturdily built, have a better stereo imaging performance, and have a slightly more expansive soundstage.
