Home Listening Headphones

The Philips SHP9600/00 is an open-back, over-ear headphone built for critical listening at home. Its 50 mm neodymium drivers and 32 ohm impedance are tuned for a spacious soundstage rather than portable isolation. The lightweight 0.728 lb frame and steel-reinforced headband suit extended sessions at a desk or on a sofa.

Detachable Cable and Adapter

A 3.0 m cable with gold-plated 3.5 mm connectors plugs straight into phones, laptops or stereo systems. The included 1/4 inch to 3.5 mm adapter lets you connect to dedicated headphone amplifiers or hi-fi receivers without buying extra parts. Both accessories are removable for easy storage or replacement.

32 Ohm Impedance

At 32 ohms and 101 dB sensitivity the SHP9600/00 reaches comfortable volume from a smartphone or laptop headphone jack. Buyers who need a higher-impedance load for a specific tube amplifier or who want active noise cancellation for commuting should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Will the ear-cup cushions on the SHP9600/00 need replacing after long use?

The breathable ear-cup cushions are built for long listening sessions and can be swapped out if they wear down over time.

What stops the 50 mm drivers from being pushed louder during marathon sessions?

The 32 ohm impedance and 200 mW maximum power input set the ceiling before distortion or driver stress appears.

How warm do the open-back ear cups get when worn all day?

The open-back design lets air flow through the 50 mm drivers, so heat stays low even during extended use.
