Our Verdict

Sennheiser HD 600

HiFiMan Sundara 2020

Between the HiFiMan Sundara 2020 and the Sennheiser HD 600, your best pick depends on your needs and preferences. The HiFiMan are more comfortable and don't need an amp to drive them. While their sound profile lacks bass, they still deliver more thump and rumble than the Sennheiser. On the other hand, the Sennheiser have a flatter mid-range and brighter treble while trapping much less heat against your ears. They're also much more stable and should stay in place while you headbang to your favorite tunes.
