Tonight, I decided to repair my ageing Sennheiser HD 565 headphones. Headband replacement went fine, but fixing a bad connection to the right phone turned into a disaster! On removing the driver to squeeze the spring connections together and improve the contact (which I'd read was the best way...

Hi all, my very first post in your great community!   Having recently acquired a set of HD565 and got stuck in finding a headband pad which I have read here is no longer available. Also read that the HD580/HD600 headband pad can be used with “spacers” but I thought I would go the DIY way...

Edit 7 December 2015:   I started this thread looking for information on how to change the headband pad of the HD565 ovation, but as no-one seemed to know (including the folks at Sennheiser!) I had to do the work myself.   This is a very fine headphone and among the few that has withstood...

Hi forum,   i accidently punched a hole in the paper lining of one of my Sennheiser HD565 drivers as i was trying to tighten the lossened spring because the contact was breaking up. now i i haven´t tested them yet if they still work because i´ve ordered replacement cables from the HD650...

Hi there,   Like many of you I have a new Little Dot MkIII, I have it since a week and have listened to it intensively. Right from the start I was impressed with the way it sounded even in not burnt in form. Since I was waiting for a new headband for my old Sennheiser HD565, for the time...

I bought a second-hand HD565 whose sound goes to the right around 20%, But I really love the sound! Then when I was wondering whether I need to get the left driver changed, I saw a couple of HD535's drivers on ebay, do they fit HD565? Maybe I can fix my HD565 with them. And the sound of my...

I have HD545, HD580, I found MOGAMI- recabled HD545s sound more relaxible and of airy sound, the HD580s sound dark and heavey.   I really love the MOGAMI-recabled HD545 with ; anybody here has some experience with HD545 and HD565?  HD565 any better?   Thanks for the opinion-sharing.

Hi, My old beloved HD565 has problems since yesterday, the right channel has no sound. When I move the connector on the headphone, it comes back. The problem comes from the cord, not the headphones, because when I switch the connectors the problem is then on the left channel. Where...

I have a set of Sennheiser HD565 Ovation headphones.  After a long time of playing with a bad cable, I finally bought a new cable.  Initial results were great with no more intermittent cutting out of the right ear piece.  After about a month, though, I lost sound completely in the right...

I've struck out trying to find someplace that still has a forgotten Sennheiser HD565 sitting on the shelf. All my web searches have come up with nothing, just websites that haven't been updated. Anyone have any leads?

I've owned the above cans from new and love the clear, detailed sound; however, they're definitely quite trebly and lacking in bass (and this was true from the day I got them). I've had other Sennheiser cans over the years, including HD480 and even a set of PX100 for use with my iPhone. I like...
