Frequency response notes
Flat sound signature. Bass is underemphasized and treble is balanced against the RTINGS target. The curve follows the target except in the bass, which rolls off in the open-back design, with small peaks and dips in the treble.9Measurementrtings.com/headphones/reviews/sennheiser/hd-600Read 21 October 2026RTINGS test bench 2.3 (review text, public part). The full curve and the other results are member-only and are not used. Wired analog connection.

Very good. Voice sounds full-bodied and intelligible, and background noise is separated well. Voice can lose intelligibility in very harsh conditions.6Measurementrtings.com/headphones/reviews/sony/wh-1000xm6Read 30 September 2026Public Our Verdict / Microphone: full-bodied intelligible voice, good background separation. Very harsh noise can reduce intelligibility.
