I like watching movies, listening music and gaming on PC. Should i buy the Sennheiser HD 439?

The 439's will be fine for either, they are not the loudest headphones but they are clear, comfortable, and great sound for the price. Wear mine mostly when flying on trips, they are not noise canceling but work well for travel.

If for home use then I suggest something more like the 558. If you have the cash though. It's more for better comfort and have the cans just engulf your ears. The 439 is a great headphones though and it will serve you well. I personally think they're better for office headphones though.

They are fine for that but I prefer the RS-170 wireless, they are fantastic and you can go anywhere and have excellent sound. Batteries last along time also in the headset. If you want to plug in then these are very nice and light but not top of the line.

Yes, as a longtime audiophile I have no problem recommending these headphones. The dynamic response of these headphones seem quite good, especially considering their price. Understand however that the bass response of many expensive high-end headphones leave something to be desired, but these headphones have discrete bass amplification and are intended for listeners who appreciate a better bass response along with a good dynamic range. I originally bought these for gaming and because they fold up and fit nicely into my backpack, but quickly realized their sound quality also made them a good choice for listening to music. Hope this helps.

Austin, for me and simply, yes, it is worth more than $70. I am not a gamer, however, and just an old music fan and especially the multi channel sounds available with 5.1 or higher outputs. I have my 'sound room' (AKA our TV room) set to 5.1 but with about 20 different speakers in different locations around the room. In no instance can I replicate the output I receive from the Logitech G430. It captures every sound I normally hear and on certain playback sounds I have never heard before. If I were buying a headset for gaming I would attempt to find a cordless one first with no strong need for the G430 type of output. But, as I said I am not a gamer and I can see where a 7.1 output could be fantastic. At times the headset is well worth far more than $70 and if I had the same set in a cordless version I would be delighted if it works as well. Additionally, I have several sets of cheap headphones and one set that cost over $100. Not one of them matches the quality and performance of the G430. I hope my reply added a different dimension to your investigation and if you decide on this set I think you will get the same level of entertainment as I have. Good question and sorry for the bloviation, John

It's OK to listen to movies.Since it's single-side headset, it's not recommended for movie if you want to fully enjoy the movie.

The short answer, incredibly awesome. I love watching action and sci/fi movies, and I have a 6 speaker Klipsch system to so do with. However, since I work alot of mid shifts for my job, I can't be blasting my system watching Edge of Tomorrow cuz I have neighbors. These headphones headphones come so close to a $3,000 speaker system, that most users wouldn't be able to tell the difference. The biggest part for me, however, is the bass isn't muddled or overpowering like the Beats headphones. Don't get me wrong, the bass has presence and force, but your movies will sound EXACTLY how the director wanted it to sound in the theater. The short answer, incredibly awesome.

It's not just for gaming. I use it on my laptop when listening music or watching videos.

I would go with whichever one looks the best to you. They are both great headphones. The sennheiser are more portable, and weigh alot less. I have both and use them in different situations. I like the sound of either one.

They are great for any application that features quality sound. Movies usually have quality sound I'm not sure about gaming. I watch a lot of movies but I don't do any gaming.

hmmn that's a good question I never heard of the HMZ until now and after checking it out on youtube my jaws dropped this is really cool I like new stuff and it works for games in 3D and I want something in 3D so I guess if your on a budget get the 3D display if you want something that's smaller and still pumps out 3D etc.. get the headset.

In a word, Yes. In three, very much yes. On a budget? I'd suggest the Sennheiser CX-400S. Money not such an object? Go for the Shur E2c. That is of course, if you're wanting to stick with earbuds and Amazon as a buying source.On a side note, if you listen to a lot of MP3s, don't.. "acquire" any that are below 256KBs. Anything lower is.. ew.

As to how they compare against the 589's, the 650's are a bit better - but I honestly don't think the difference is too great.As an aside, the 650's are the best pair of headphones I have ever owned. I have used them for everything from long periods of gaming, to movies and music, and I have never been dissatisfied. Anyways, just my two cents.

I can't say I know! I see people with both types and have never asked which they prefer. I purchased Sennheiser because of familiarity with the brand. Felt like for the price these are a great value (for my taste!). Good luck!

It's great even at full volume on my pc, but remember that it is not as loud as normal headphone (which I love by the way ^.^ )

Of course you do!I use these for watching movies, videos or hear music, and they are perfect for that. They are not noise cancelling, but are comfortable and sound is good.

Yes I recommended this to Apple products and there is Apple Control build in and the sound is reasonable, good value for money. Also it could be connected to Hi-Fi System or Amplifier's Headphone Output. The sound is good but I do not recommend this to wear for a long time. This thing is not comfortable for me. That's the reason I bought Audio Technica ATH-AD900X Audiophile Open-Air Headphones. The AD900X is the best Headphone I found for the sound and comfort and easy to drive.

I have 2 Sennheiser products, HD439 (2 month) CX275 (1 year), In general, German projects are more reliable. Shure (USA) is pretty reliable, too.

I play PS4 (Destiny and Advanced Warefare) on it and it seems great to me. I would recommend getting some type of speakers or head set because the sound on the TV is terrible though.
