The Sennheiser HD 490 Pro is the latest audiophile and professional headphone product to come from Sennheiser. With two new pad materials, and a new (and welcome) frame design, the 490 Pro provides a completely new feel on your head. The sound profile is also unique, with some great qualities to it. In this review I compare it against the Sennheiser HD 560S, the HD 6XX/650, and the legendary HD 800 S.

Thanks again to Headphones.com for sending the HD 800S!! Check out their online store and blog for some great deals with excellent customer service!
