The HD-665 is a bit of a revelation at its price point. They’re surprisingly revealing for closed-back headphones, making them a great option for drummers needing isolation or anyone on a tight budget who wants a decent listening experience. Just be mindful of the slightly harsh high-end at higher volumes.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Superlux HD-665 offers a more detailed sound signature than the M20x, but the ATH-M20x generally has better build quality and a more neutral frequency response.
While they're decent for general listening, the HD-665’s coloration and limited soundstage make them less ideal for critical mixing and mastering applications.
The cable is a potential weak point; while detachable, it's not heavily shielded and could benefit from more careful handling to prevent damage.
