Ive had HD25 for over 10 years never noticed the noise from cable. It never bothered me! but after you pointed out.... YEA.... THANK YOU! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! :-)
LOL... Sorry. I must get back to work on that project in the new year ;)
I liked this report.
I like the way you pronounce aluminum.
I like your jumper.
Thank you
Thank you
and
Thank you ;)
I like your channel dude. And I like your sense of humor. Less likely to see such creators on RUclips. Respect.
Thanks ;)
To reduce microphonic effect I made a knot (acuurately, not so tight) on the cable right underneath the can and it works perfectly. 90% of that weird noise has gone.
Simple yet clever
This is something that we do in location sound recording, when you try to eliminate noise getting into a lav mic. It does do job sometimes.
Insane!! I modded the gold coils a year ago on mine! Btw, made a review on my hd25 where I have your cushions ! Gave you a shout out on my vid 😊
Thanks ;)
I've got 15+ year old of HD-25s (usual earpads replaced a few times) they're starting to get a bit raggy but I've not had any connection problems. I'm a bit scared to replace them now after watching this 😂
lol ;)
very informative video, thank you, and kudos for innovating, and not just selling stock. quite funny too ,D
Thanks ;)
That sweater 😻
It was a good find ;)
How can I ensure the HD 25’s I purchase online will be the new ones produced this year? Is there some kind of batch number or other identifier that I can look for? I’ve been using these to DJ since 2006 and I’ve always had the same issues with the pins.
Buy them from a larger retailer with high stock turn over - most larger retailers don't keep stock for more them a month or two. It is only smaller retailers that don't sell many where the stock will sit on the shelves for a long time. I know we get a new batch every month or two usually
well done . still have my aluminium hd25 , love it.
The original aluminiums are worth a fare bit these days.
@@CustomCans My pair of aluminums are very loose, being that the ear cup slides down the shaft and doesnt click like a new pair. Can you fix that?
@@PyroVikingXD yes, we can probably fix that. You would have to send them in and we can take a look and and let you know the cost. They may juts need new arms
Ooo im excited for aloominum HD25' parts!
Will you be reviewing the 660S2? I need convincing the buying the 660s 6 months ago wasn't a mistake lol
Yup.. I am excited about the aloominum parts too. I doubt we will be looking at the 660S2 unless sennheiser sends me a pair to review.... They are a bit too expensive for me to buy some just to take a look at the changes
Just ordered some aluminium cups, thanks yall, I'm kinda excited!
I think you were the 1st to get a pair sent out
@@CustomCans They came this morning, fitted and look great, if I can do it anybody can. Thanks Custom Cans and enjoy your weekend!
May I you ask please.
Which HD25 s have the gold voice coils, as well as the gold plug.
Interested in ordering some soon.
All the latest ones have that. I suspect any pair you buy from a large retailer now will have gold springs and gold pins on the cable -
Alu is the minimum, hence the name Aluminimum. the next step will be gold!
We are considering getting some gold plated
Hi I’m from Argentina see you review of the original HD25-1 around 10 year’s ago and now the cable of my original HD 25-1 finally had broken can you suggest a replacement part and upgrade …. I do love my old hear phone don’t want to replace them for the new version I will soon enough maybe need to but not for now !!!
keep the good work mate
I would go with the new HD25s cable from sennheiser, it is better than the old one and you should be able to buy it in Argentina hopefully
Really liking the isolator should be a good and easy mod!
Yes, thanks, it is an nice simple fix
Hello! Please tell me, is there a difference in sound between the new HD25 Light and HD25? The new HD25 Light drivers have the same design as the standard HD25 and the same 70 Ohm impedance.
In my HD25 Light (new version) the measured resistance is 60 Ohms.
They both have the same drivers now so the main difference would be from the clamping force - so they should sound pretty similar
@@CustomCans Thanks for the answer! I had HD25 for a long time (12 years ago). I recently bought HD25 Light. As far as I remember, they sound very similar to the ear. After 12 years it’s hard to say :) But the sound is very high quality and the frequency response is smooth
attach the cable clamp to the hinge or headband itself so it's not on the ear cup. Or a soft rubber clip that fits where the earpad meets the housing the cable can strap into? Soft rubber dampened into soft padding.. food for thought. Also are you going to offer the aluminum housing in different colours? powder coat options would be awesome
Yes, we will have anodized parts in blue, pink and purple
Hello! Are these headphones (HD-25) afraid of low temperatures? For example, transportation at -10 degrees Celsius?
I am not sure if it is recommended or not but they should be OK as long as they are kept dry. I know the BBC used them for sound recording on the frozen planet series and they survived in some of the coldest places on earth

@@CustomCans Thanks a lot! Now I'm calm :) You have a very interesting channel!
great update. do you have any news about the wooden earcups made by a guy from Australia?
My most favourite pair. Mine have leather cushings and HD600 cable with 4.4 jack :)
I had lost a pair that was made in Ireland about 5 years ago.
New ones I assume are from asia.
Be well.
The latest ones are made in Romania but I think the HD25 plus is made in Ireland
@@CustomCans that would be great if cans are made in Europe.
Old ones had big made in Ireland label.
On newer ones I can not find any made in.. information. And I did trash box years ago.
Your cave is cool.
came for the HD25, stayed for the jumper. seriously, where can i find it?? it looks great on you btw💕
Thanks ;) I can't remember where I got it unfortunately
I am about to either get my pair repaired originally made in Ireland. Have had them for more than 15 years.
I hear they are made in Romania now which is not a problem but when i get to the store, if I decide to invest in a new pair, how does one know that they are buying the updated 2023 version?
Does the box say updated version…2023???
I don't think it says on the box but most largeish retailers would have turned over all their stock by now as it is nearly a year. Sennheiser are currently out of stock of the HD25 so we have been buying them from various retailers to replenish our stock and they have all been the latest ones.
@@CustomCans thanks for your reply.
Weren't allumminniumm earcups implemented in HD25 like two times already?
Yep exactly like two times ;) the 25 anniversary HD25 and the amperior. When sennheiser discontinued them we bought up all the spare parts for them so we could keep building them. There is a video on here somewhere of us building the last ever pair of the original aluminium HD25s. The original HD25 aluminium are now going for over £400 on ebay and so are a bit out of our price range. Hopefully we can knock out this version out for around half that.
sweet customs man!
Thanks ;)
How can you tell if you are buying the Mk2? Nobody seems to advertise that...
As they have been ou for nearly a year - most shops will have sold through any old stock - if you buy from a retailer, they will all be the lates version now
How do you make sure to get this latest iteration instead of an older one? Because some stores might still sell the old one and you never knew
It has been about a year since these came out so I suspect everywhere will have the latest model ... there is no real way of telling without checking the cable but... most larger retailers will turn over their stock every 3 or 4 months
@@CustomCans thanks!
@@CustomCans thanks!
So if I understand from your video Customs Cans now has the machine to make their own aluminum earcups for the Sennheiser HD 25 ?? And like you said a little different than the original aluminum ?? Also a read I the comments you said will be possible other colors in aluminum ??? Imagine aluminum gold or Purple ?? And how much they will go for ??
Well... Nearly ;) we have designed the parts and a CNC company is machining them from billet aluminium for us. The first batch will only be available in silver but in a few months we should get them made in different colours. If we can we would also like so get some with a shiny, nearly mirror finish
@@CustomCans This will be epic, and the price ??? can be reveled now ?? or we have to wait for the release??
@@phineasphreak6158 i am not 100% sure on the price as we don't know all the costs involved yet but probably £199 for a pair of HD25s with aluminium earcups and hinges already fitted
@@CustomCans Ok nice I am so happy for this.

Its my bf bday and he is a dj. Now i have seen him having his Sennheiser HD25 for longggg time, they look like a disaster. So i wanna buy him the newest pair, that has the same plug like the HD25 as it is fine with his dj decks. What model should i buy? Sorry for my poor knowledge about headphones 😩
All the HD25s have the same plug so they will all be fine but if you fancy treating him, we have just release the aluminium ones in new colours . Here is a link
customcans.co.uk/shop/?s=aluminium&post_type=product&dgwt_wcas=1
I want those cups!
Yes. I am pretty excited to get them. We may get them anodized different colours in the future as well if we sell enough of them
How can i know if im buying the latest version oof the HD 25's on Amazon? they only show as sennheiser HD 25, Plus or Special Edition
It will be tricky to say for certain but I suspect all the standard HD25 will be the new ones by now as they should have sold through the old stock by now. The plus does not sell as quick but it will probably be the same for them. As far as I am aware, the special edition are older so probably won't have the gold springs
If you are in the UK and want the standard HD25s, we get a new batch every month so always have the latest ones
How can you make sure that you buy the latest version? :D
That is tricky because the box looks the same but most large shops will sell through all their stock and order new stock every couple of months. As all the new ones shipping from sennheiser are the new gold spring version, in a couple of months, most new pairs available online will be the new model. If you are at a physical shop they may let you unplug the cable and take a look down the holes to see what colour the springs are
Hey there) I know i'm late to the party, but it seems a lot of people report leather on pads of HD 25 plus (at least haven't heard so much of this complaint about regular ones) begin to peel of on 3rd day of usage. Sometimes it's get mistaken for white sweat stains but that's not it- it's actually upper layer of leather coming off. Is this issue widespread? And on sidenote- my HD 25's measure 65.4 Ohm left and 63.2 Ohm right ear. Is this normal? Thanks in advance!
The resistance you are measuring seems right. We have seen a couple of pairs with the white peely looking stuff on after a bit of use but we have found if you give them a wipe with a damp cloth it comes off and then they seem fine. I am not sure what is is, maybe some surface coating or something they are adding in the factory that is going a bit wrong on the odd pair. I think we have seen around 1 in every 200 pairs have this issue reported back to us over the past 6 months and not seen it on any in the past couple of months so maybe it is sorted now.
@@CustomCans But why so different on each ear tho? My MDR 7506 give same resistance for both speakers. Alas damp cloth only makes peeling worse( As for peeling it's quite curious that only Plus versions seems to be affected. By the way- do you opened "affected" pair? Is it faulty only with coating or somenthing inside is off too?
@@williameckhart8263 Yes, there is probably more of a missmatch than some, I am not sure what the tolerance would normaly be. The left usually measures a little higher than the right as the cable is longer. If they are peeling, I would rpobably have a chat to the place you purchased them from. They may replace your pads under warranty
@@CustomCans already done that, got some money back and bought some Dekoni pads, so not much of a loss here I guess) Actually haven't thought about cable length) Indeed higher resistance ear is a left one. Got some other measurements from forums, seems consistent with what I got. My main concern was that these HD 25 were not legit, and due to Sennheiser removing qr check there was no easy way to verify. But everything seems legit. Thanks for your answers)
Is it normal for me to hear like some kind of electrical noise when I turn them on the DJ controller and I didn't play any music but turned on the DJ controller with the PC(USB-C attached), and on the PC when I turn them on it is different that noise is not heard. Is this a problem or is it normal?
Detail review nice
So all the HD25 we order thru custom cans will be the 2023 ones or will some be the older one?
If they are made to order then they will all now be the new ones. We do have quite a big stock of pre painted ones, some of which will be the previous version but we can check for people
I feel like these exploded in popularity, why? Are they only favorite in pro scene or do people love them for home listening too?
Yeah. A lot of people use then for portable use as they block out a lot of noise and stay on the head well. They were originally used on concord. Given to passengers to block out the sound of supersonic flighht
Confused, those new aluminum h25’s are from sennheiser or custom mods?
We are making aluminium parts to fit on standard HD25 headphones, sennheiser are not making a new aluminium set
hi. sell only aluminium hinges set for hd25?? thanks
We have some shiny silver ones we can sell. I will get them listed on the website tomorrow
hi. excellent . HAVE AVAILABLE THE LINK?? THANKS
@@CustomCans
This or HDJ-CX from Pioneer? Thx
I have never tried the HDJ-CX I and as I sell around £6000 worth of custom HD25s a month, I would be a bit biased ;)
What about your forged carbon hd25
Yes, i really should get those finished. Once the alu parts are in, i will get on thhat
How do you know if the copy you get are the 2023?
Most retailers will have the new ones by now but the only sure way to tell is un plug the cable and have a look into the socket
What’s new for Sennheiser HD25? They still don’t last very long.
I really don’t understand the continued praise for their longevity. I’ve had multiple pairs, all have failed. I know plenty of circuit freinds with the same problem.
Last pair lasted 2 weeks. I’ve put up with the disposable nature of them as I felt they were unparalleled for sound quality and comfort but I’m done replacing them every other month.
I feel your pain.
( TLDR they are normally easy to fix there and then with no need for tools)
As we make a lot of one off pairs normally people send them in to us for servicing or repair if they fail. Because of that we get to see how they fail. We also get to see many pairs that have kept going in a DJ environment for 10 years plus with just a little servicing. For DJs, it seems to be two main things that cause issues - something in the socket on top of the earcups like hair product or dried sweat or the hinges come loose. Both can be fixed pretty quickly / prevented. I would recommend, once a month unplug the cable from the top of the earcups and re-insert it to clean out any funk that has built up in the socket and check that the screws on the hinges are tight ( they are designed to fit a coin so no need for tools ) . That may not be 100% necessary but as they are mission critical for a lot of DJs it is worth doing once a month to make sure.
SO for us, HD25s can normally be fixed in 5 mins by the customer where as pioneer, technics, sony and other brands normally need to be repaired / re-bulit in the workshop and take a good hour to do which is no good if you have a gig.
@@CustomCans Thank you. I’ll dig out a pair and see what I can do. Appreciate it. I’ve take to carrying around a spare pair of AKGs which has become habit and barely noticeable for me but would be nice to not have to!
This may help ruclips.net/video/EwKvHo2gCF0/видео.html
@@CustomCans thank you. Corrosion seems to be the issue on two old pairs. The joy of sweat boxes. Newer pair seems to be cable connection. Appreciate the knowledge.
Is there any Over ear Headphone with the sound of HD25?
I suppose the HD280 is similar
Yeah, as an American, aluminium is more scientifically consistent. Now if you'll excuse me imma go take the lorry, to the lift, to the loo.
Lol ;)
You have an elevator the the wc? 😂
1 all over and a shave and bro would be good to go. Good review too.
Yeah, rubbing confirmed. I would like those aluminiminimiuuum ones.
I bet when you woke up this morning you did not imagine you would end up writing the sentence "Yeah, rubbing confirmed" today ;)
@@CustomCans Wow, oh my, I see .."what a mistake I make" - Halo, Halo ...
@@CustomCans 😂😂🤣🤣
@@xtra8dj 🤣🤣😂😂
i am laster 😂🤣
are you guys doing IEM's? i am a recent convert 🤯
I am thinking about it but nothing in the pipeline at the moment
The problem with those pins/contacts is on purpose.The vast majority of users will go and buy new headphones.20 years ago I had the same problem with HD580 made in Ireland.I bought a new cable twice and finally got rid of them for nothing.I wish I knew about the problem.
even more last
