I’m a proud owner of Sennheiser HD650 for more than 5 years. Absolutely love them. Decided to try Beyerdynamic DT 1990 pro from Amazon at 430Eur. And I’ve come to the conclusion that its time for me to own 2 excellent headphones.

Now being the cheap ass I am. I want to return the ones I have and buy a used pair for 300Eur.

The question. Will the used headphones purchased in 2019 be as good as the new ones? I mean i dont see my HD650 ageing besides the pads.

Cheers and happy black Friday shopping

    Sennheisers and Beyers headphones (no idea about IEMs) out of any brand should last the longest as long as they maintain the same quality control. They can last you 20+ years if you take care of them well, with no noticeable change in sound quality whatsoever. Pads are a different thing ofc, but that’s pretty much a given for any headphones.

    The downside is, well, they don’t really release new models… lol. which can be a good thing actually, but it might be nice to have a Senn planar with the signature mids, personally speaking hehe.
