Our Verdict

Sennheiser HD 600

Sennheiser HD 560S

The Sennheiser HD 560S are slightly better for most people than the Sennheiser HD 600. The HD 560S are more comfortable and deliver audio more consistently with a slightly weightier bass response. However, the HD 600 are better built and used in more professional audio settings.
