FULL STORY ======================================================================

The Sennheiser HD 505 won a TechRadar Choice Award 2025 as the best wired headphones thanks to their excellent sound quality, affordable price, and great comfort.

Today, for Cyber Monday, you can pick the HD 505 up at Amazon for $199.95
(was $329.95) in the US and in the UK at Amazon for 179.99 (was 229.99) .

Those are brilliant savings on a pair of headphones that are the perfect entry-point into the world of head-fi, and well worth their value at full price, let alone with a massive Cyber Monday discount. The best Black Friday Sennheiser deals, US

Sennheiser's latest entry to its revered 'HD' range of wired headphones are designed to be 'transparent', meaning they aim to let you hear all the detail and subtleties in a recording but they do this for a far lower price than most wired audiophile headphones. This Amazon deal saves you $130 on one of the best bang-for-buck headphones around. View Deal The best Sennheiser Black Friday deals UK

In our review, we said the Sennheiser HD 505 give you "a taste of the high
end at a real-world price". They're very comfortable, they're very insightful and revealing with your music despite being easy to drive from portable devices, and they're great value they're a perfect entry into the world of head-fi, and 50 off for Cyber Monday. View Deal

I've fallen in love with wired Sennheiser headphones, and while my current pair, the HD490 Pro, aren't on sale this Cyber Monday, the deal on these HD 505 are seriously tempting for users who want to make the jump into high-end open-back headphones.

Combined with a streaming service like Qobuz and a DAC like the one I'm going to show you below, the sound quality with a Sennheiser pair of cans will blow you away. In fact, the soundstage on all open-back headphones from the German audio giant feels like a whole new way of listening to audio.

These headphones will make for an excellent gaming headset too, just pair
them with a DAC like the Fosi K7, and you can use them with your PC and PS5.

This is one of the best deals this Cyber Monday, and honestly, if I didn't already own a pair of Sennheiser's I'd be buying the HD 505 today!

I did loads of research before buying the Fosi K7 to use with my PS5 and PC, and I've not been this happy with a tech purchase in a while. Not only does the K7 make my gaming sound incredible, easily powering my open-back headphones, but it has also made music so much more enjoyable to listen to. View Deal

In the UK, you can save 21% on the Fosi K7, and at under 150, I don't think you'll find a better DAC on the market. I kid you not, I cried the first time I heard Radiohead with my headphones plugged into this DAC. It was a magical experience, and one that's unbeatable for this price.
