70dB is enough for me, which is a conversational volume. Any more volume seems loud too me. I switched to IEMs primarily because open ears I found the tendency is to turn up the volume. I live in the city and there’s too much ambient noise here on the regular.
That’s the benefit of IEMs or noise cancelling headphones.
I’ve heard or owned many, many permutations of open and closed back $100-$300 headphones, including every gaming headset under the sun. I have never heard the hd 560 personally but nothing comes anywhere close to the hd 650/6xx in this price range. They are an absolute steal.
I would go so far as to say I’ve been disappointed with every headphone and gaming headset in this price range *but* the hd 650/6xx and Hifiman Sundara. Especially closed backs in this price range are ‘meh’ IMO.
The only issue comes down to comfort and isolation. Maybe that’s not working for OP?These days my living situation is too loud to enjoy open back so I’ve been daily driving IEMs for the isolation… Truthear Hexa is great for $80USD, Moondrop Blessing is similar sound profile but better imaging.
I could see if your room is just too loud, not enjoying open-backs. I’ve moved to IEMs for this reason. Honestly you get way more bang for your buck with chi-fi IEMs… Truthear Hexa kills any cheaper closed-backs.
Just my two cents.
