Rtings review: https://www.rtings.com/headphones...ps/shp9500
The Phillips SHP9500s though Oh my god they are comfy they obliterate everything else. They are soft lightweight so breathable I don't think you could possibly do any better with headphone comfort, you would need IEMS or something. I regularly just sit at my desk and FORGET I'm wearing them. That would never happen with any other headphones I tried not even close. I'm sure alot of people could tell you better about the audio quality but for a gamer headset or a budget audiophile headset (open Back) with soundstage these are really good and for me comfort matters way more than reviewers will spend time on. If you are looking for something that sounds good and is comfortable this is it.
Sometimes I get the itch to look at new headphones it stops me from buying other headphones because I'm worried they will feel bad so that really says something.
Now for negatives it does leak sound alot but most open backs do this. Also for me this is actually advantage. I am a cheap mofo so I don't have speakers for my computer so I just turn the volume Up and set it down and its loud enough to listen to a podcast or some video where audio quality doesn't matter.
And my clamping force after 7 years has definitely weakened to the point where if I lean too much they will start sliding off but for the price these are unbeatable IMO.

Quite opposite - instead of "you can literally hear everything outside" - actually every one around can hear what you are listening
Lol that too

Yeah buddy! I agree with you 100% about these headphones. I've collected and used tons of headphones over the last 20+ years or so and when I got these like 7 years ago, they have been my absou favorite. I have gone back and forth between these many times and I can't let these go. They are outstanding for the price and should be considered some of the best headphones ever made. Phillips used to be headphones Gods back in the day and these headphones prove their mark in history as one of the best. Think I'll pick me up another pair just to keep for when these finally go kaput.
