Explore the Sennheiser HD 660S2 review. Learn how this 300-ohm headphone refines the 600 series legend with improved sub-bass performance and a technical pivot.

The HD 660S2 is the 'posh slipper' of audio, designed for long, fatigue-free sessions where you want the refined sub-bass and holographic imaging of the 600-series legacy without the 'shoutiness' of the classics.
Evolution and popularity of Sennheiser HD 660S2 headphones







The Sennheiser HD 660S2 was designed as a direct response to years of fan feedback regarding the legendary 600 series. The most significant refinement is the improved sub-bass performance, addressing a long-standing complaint from the audiophile community. By focusing on this specific frequency range, Sennheiser aims to provide the 'silver bullet' solution that maintains the classic magic of the series while offering a more complete and modern sound profile.
In a strategic technical pivot, Sennheiser returned to a 300-ohm impedance for the HD 660S2, moving away from the 150-ohm driver found in the original HD 660S. This shift marks a return to the high-impedance roots of the 600 series. While the lower impedance of the previous model made it easier to use with mobile devices, the S2 is specifically optimized for high-quality desktop setups to achieve its refined audio performance.
The Sennheiser HD 660S2 is viewed as a seismic shift for the 'royal family' of audiophile headphones. Released in early 2023, it balances the traditional characteristics that made the 600 series famous with modern technical upgrades. By revisiting high-impedance drivers and focusing on sub-bass, the HD 660S2 acts as a refined successor that honors the series' history while meeting the demands of contemporary audio enthusiasts.
