These headphones are the same as the HD 280s but they have a high quality boom mic. They sound fantastic with a frequency response range of 8hz to 25khz.

As far as the wiring on these, be aware that the cable does not come terminated, but with a little patience you can easily do it yourself! I have mine configured to use two 1/8" (3.5mm) stereo [TRS] jacks so it plugs straight into my computer sound card. There is no need to hook an amplifier up to the microphone, it doesn't need anything extra.

Here is how I wired mine up, in case anyone wants to try but is unsure of how to do this.

Your standard TRS connector is =[Sleeve][Ring][Tip]> On the side you solder to, the innermost piece is the tip, the sleeve is the outermost piece.

For the headphones use TRS:

Tip -> Left Channel (red +)

Ring -> Right Channel (white +)

Sleeve -> Ground (blue and black -)

For the Mic use TRS:

Tip -> Input (yellow +)

Ring -> Nothing

Sleeve -> Ground (green -)

Have you ever bought a pair of headphones and had them show up in the package with just bare wires hanging out of the end of the cable? Well, that is what you will get if you hit "Purchase" on this item from Amazon. That is the way it is sold here. You will basically receive headphones that you CANNOT USE without buying two separate plugs and a soldering gun. Other sites sell the same model but specify: "HMD 280 terminated with a 3-pin XLR connector, and 1/4" headphone plug." which is what I wanted and assumed I was getting (note there is no mention of this version being unterminated in the product description).

I am sure these are probably great headphones. I wish I could use them.
