my hands are up sir
I know I'm not worthy because I didn't get to buy them and they got out of stock everywhere and then I'll make them no more and everybody that got a pair is lucky bastard you're so lucky I wish I would one of you guys but maybe in another world maybe another life or maybe they would doom again but maybe I will buy the new ones I don't know but I'm pretty mad that I don't own that beer and I hope the time better too obviously it's been years
Next time I leave a comment and make sure I look at the video at least didn't forget up too bad let me watch to rid of the video and get back to you then see what you say have a good day sir
I need you like them still that's a plus
Thank you for forgetting to thank you for f****** it for f****** it up LOL I knew it I knew it's that's why I mean to Cummins when old wedding the video I'll come on man the first ones were so perfect I heard so many good things about him why why dad to f*** it up it's why at least you like them but you know what I mean you know what I mean
I'm glad that zeos recognises that the shp9500 is the most important video in the history of this channel ☺💯
Recently bought one because of that video
I would argue that it's the m50x video. That shit made this channel as big as it is now.
@@yanuehara8017 wot is m50x? i am really really new around here

Both hands up here too
yep
Same, best $45 I've ever spent. Extreme sale.
Two hands here. Two hands and a foot if you count the mic attachment Z recommended
I got "SHIPS"
I got them because of you....
i own ship9500.
i own them because you told me to buy them.
thanks. they are great.
me too! and i love em
Same
hes a smart dude.
same best headset for gaming
How about to watch movies? Is it good enough?
Guilty, both hands
God, I love the new setup. The fireplace. Man, you made some great choices. Amazing what having more space will allow you to do.
Fireplace, yes. No headphone wall... makes my heart hurt
I bought my 9500s years ago and wore them every single day since then with no problem, and then recommended them to friends cause of your review. I love how comfortable the 9500s are. Once I saw the 9600s came out I had to see how they were.
WHICH one is better? still prefer 9500?
I bought a set of SHP9500's off Newegg a few years ago. They were on a open box sale for $30, and for that price, they were unbeatable. I ended up selling my SHP9500's when they got hard to get. After that, I basically traded up even to a set of X2HR's that I got during a Black Friday sale. The SHP9500's are pretty good for the price ($50-$75), but I definitely recommend the X2HR over the SHP9500.
Just got my pair of X2HR yesterday after seeing Z's review and they're great... bought them primarily because of the comfort, but can't complain about the sound, for sure...
I also own the X2HRs but many have said that and the SHP9500 are different types of headphones. So for me its less about what is the upgrade more than what you like out of those two headphones.
@@t4d0W How would you compare the two? I just got the shp9500's and felt like a needed more warmth and bass. Would the shp9600 be my best bet?
Yes, I have the 9500.
And I bought them because of you man. Thanks a lot for that.
Now I want the 9600 for sure.
I miss the random guests in the back ground. Every time a motorcycle drove by, I used to pretend it was ghost rider. 😔
I'm listening to this review while wearing my OG SHP-9500's that YOU recommended!
My poor SHP's they have thousands of hours of gaming and music and my pads are basically human skin at this point...ugh.
I have them 🙋🏾♂️ and i got them because of zreviews 🙋🏾♂️
Yes this is one of the best headphones that I have got. All thanks to you
This is my go-to channel for audio reviews, I was interested in the 9500 because of you (and budget) but finally went for the "Ricardo's" (on sale), also thanks to you. 🤘🏼
Cannn I put both my hands down, sir? They're starting to achhe
How'd you type this then? 🤔
Ants have more hands
I own 9500's. I watched tons of reviews before getting them, so I'm sure you were included. I've been enjoying the hell out of them for years. They're so comfy that sometimes I forget I'm wearing them or get a cable snagged and rip them off my head. They still haven't broken yet, but I poke around the internet every once in awhile to see what else is on the market in case I ever need to replace them. Still haven't found anything that comes as highly rated and considering I love these I can't say I'd get anything else for the foreseeable future. Now, onto watch this video and see if the 9600's can compare.
EDIT: Okay, so sticking with the 9500's if I have to replace. Most comfortable headphones I've ever worn and love the sound signature. Don't listen to bassy music much and haven't been disappointed yet, even in Cyberpunk which has a fair amount of bass in its soundtrack. Just love these headphones and still impressed years after owning them, and I only paid $42 total!
Yep. I feel same way about Philips SHN9500 headsets (noise cancellation). Just a great headset. I’m going to buy the SHP9500.
I did what Zeos said...waited a couple of months and got the 9600 cheaper and I am loving the cuddly warm sounds. Waiting further direction for the coming months in my life Zeos
Me to,i get them for 60Dollar,and i like them :)
I guess I am one of those few people who like the L & R marking on the grills....I think it makes for interesting design element.
Yasss
Got the 9500's a year ago, and yes after you reviewed them and I watched the sound demo. Thx! They're wonderful! I love them!
I've been wearing my SHP9500s every single day for hours since 2016 and they were so incredibly worn out and basically falling apart.
So I decided to swap the inner circle part that contains the driver over to my SHP9600 "frame" because I kind of don't like them anyways.
Everything fit perfect but the weird thing is, it literally just sounds exactly the same as the 9600 now despite the entire center circle being from the 9500.
So I think what gives the 9600 it's more warm relaxed sound is the egg shaped part being a different shape and the pads being a bit deeper.
Kind of bizarre to me.
It is strange
bc of your I've had the 9500's for 3 years now, recommended to all my friends and it's changed the game for them
found this chanl for finding a headphone for gaming stil sticking around havent made a choice tho best revieuwer on youtube imo
The lack of low end is the major reason I didn't get the 9500's, sounds like I would be more interested in these.
for its price range its pretty good
I run across this channel like once a year and for some reason I always remember it's you due to the waifus on the right monitor.
Both hands man. I love the SHP9500s. Thanks for the rec.
All I ever wanted was 9500s with pads you could replace with the same pads without performing surgery. The pads are great even though they aren't as hardy as others.
both hands up, had em for 7 years now, no regrets.
how are they holding up?
1:15 I definitely bought a pair of Philips SHP9500's thanks to Zeos and in fact, because I was concerned that they might disappear from the market, I bought a second boxed pair (both pairs were purchased for $65 each) just to be on the safe side and they do sound fantastic.
I've also bought too many other reasonably priced headphones due to Z Reviews, but that's a story for another day (and they all sounded fantastic). :)
you must be so happy now since 9500s have been discontinued...
@@Neutrovertido, really? They're still available on Canadian Amazon, but they're $135 each now.
I own SHP9500, KPH30i and Neumann NDH20. All thanks to you, Zeos! Wish you all the best next year, keep doing you and never stop.
I like the SHP9600, but love the KPH30i and with the amp/dac i can push the koss harder without getting tinny in the highs.
i've still got my SHP9500 pair from 5 years ago, and yes your review showed me the light
Great breakdown. A wild ride, but by the end I decided that the shp9600 were a good start for an open back newbie like me.
Yeah I love my 9600. I use it when my ears need a rest or when I don't want to listen very critically, because that's what my HiFiMan HE400se is for.
@@Sir_Corgerus is the bass mote immersive and detailed in the 9600 or the hx?400se?
@@getoutsidenow420 the bass is neutral and more detailed/controlled on the HE400se, while the SHP9600 has more boosted mid-upper bass with a more pleasant presentation. The HE400se is overall more detailed in the sound, while the SHP9600 is more relaxed in the sound (also great with aftermarket Misodiko pads).
@@Sir_Corgerus thanks, you know anything about the phillips h805? Might order it tonight, its 50 renewed or 60 new, might ger renewed to save $20 only...
@@getoutsidenow420 I don't know anything about any other Philips models aside from the 9600 and 9500
Yup, have SHP-9500 because you told me to buy them.
The sequal to schindler's list would be xing lee's list :D
Welp, all I need to know now is if I can expect the second coming of the yugest sounding headphone, modded SHP9600. Seems current ModHouse parts for the 9500 are incompatible with the newer 9600 design.
Raising my hand twice :o
🤚🏼arguably your best suggestion that I’ve bought.
Bought shps when you first put the video on your channel. Just got the jubilees and I couldnt be happier with both purchases.
I love my SHP9500 (both hands up btw!) Bass is at the bottom of my priority list so I don't mind the lack of low end. But when I want it, I'd just switch on the True Bass on the Zen dac to add dat thicc, buttery goodness. And it definitely add good amount of depth to the 9500's sound. This combo is just perfect together, imo!
Hey Zeos, unrelated question: Have you played Hunt: Showdown? It probably has the best audio design out of any game out there, certainly the best of any I've played. As a man of culture I think you'd appreciate it. Cheers, love your work
yes because you can hear people walking 100m away
@@ethangrewe583 Not really you can hear running in water that far away.
But yeah I love the sound design in that game
Even better than Warcraft III?
Chech battlefield
Anytime someone asks me to recommend them their first open back headphone, it's always easy to rec the 9500s
Yes I just ordered ships9500, they will be my 1st open back headphone. So excited cant wait to try them.
Always
is there a closed back version of shp9500?
Listening to this video on the 9500s I bought bc of you. YOU did this to me. And I'm forever grateful. 😂
Yep bought them because of you, and I never regret a thing
I would really love z to do like he does with sound demos with music but in games. like squad where you can here gun shots and etc to see that side of a headphone!
That’s a brilliant idea! 👍🏻
bought the 9500 by your recommendation and I love them to death. In fact, I have an additional 2 brand new ones in case the ones I use break. A while back, I also bought the X2HR for $99 by your recommendation Zeos and I hated the sound signature and were returned immediately. To my ears, the 9500 with a bit of EQ produces considerably more sub-bass than the X2....go figure. Here's a question Zeos, which headphones according to you are the 9500 part 2?
I have been waiting for this video so much! (watching with the shp9500- heard about them from you)
Listening on my SHP9500 while having SHP9600 in my cart waiting to pull the trigger if Z says I'm good to go
The Fidelio X3 looks pretty interesting. Hope you got a review coming for them sometime.
Check back on the 4th. I need to get a yardsale video in on the 3rd.
@@ZReviews I can't imagine all the stuff your finding after the move. It's like "oh I didn't know I had that still" and " WTF did that come from? " Typical moving syndrome! Lol
AD700X are $130. Don't know how you could buy these over those. You'd have to be high. I mean you do have to over ear mod the AD700x but they're amazing after. Or just go hd58x.
@@MrDutch1e You can go on all day about price. I personally think you'd be nuts to buy AD700 when the X2HR is $150 or less.
@@MrCarGuy if were talking gaming modded ad700x take the win. N comfort wise they beat anything that exist. You could literally where them 24/7 for the rest of your life and not feel the slightest discomfort lol.
"Wow.. these fall apart when you do that..." -- Things you don't want @Zeos to notice with your product.
2 hands way up. Thank you for the time you take to produce information that is understandable for newbs like me. You da man!
1 hand raised...Got 'em a few months ago, watched SHP9500 your review vid yesterday for that buyer's elation of like "f yeah man, I got those!" lol...
I got them, used them, loved them, sold them to a friend who wasn't even into audio but he loved them. Then I bought another pair, used them, loved them, and sent them to my brother. They're pretty much the perfect gift.
Who wants to get me some? Please?
Was able to pick up a pair of 9500($55) a few months ago. Love them, can wear for hours. Just picked up a pair of the 9600($65) for my brother. He thought the 9500 lacked bass, so perfect!
Thank you for the recommendations/reviews!
not worthy of its price
if it were 60$ or even 80$ it might be worth it for people who didn't already had the SHP9500
130$ is a hard pass
Agreed too costly for what it offers.
You can still get the 95s for $80 so there isn't much reason to get these.
Got my 9600s for $74 after coupons on Amazon
@@keilinx Same. I got my 9600s for $70 on Amazon.
It's 2023 and the SHP9600 is selling for $56 USD. I got the 9500 earlier this year for $60 USD as my first pair of fully open-back headphones and I'm very pleased. Prior to those I was a long time user of the Samson SR850 and still have two sets put aside. The Samsons are very impressive and perform way above their price point ($40 USD).
Hey man, how's the sr850 compared to the 9500, planning to upgrade
I don't like the small round ear cups on the Samson, ears aren't round.
TIL it's pronounced "ship" 😂Also, the SHP9600s are going for freaking $35 *new* on eBay, so they're currently a steal as an entry pair of cans!
And I love your energy in these vids. Contrary to what I'd think if I explained it to myself, it's pretty relaxing.
I had the SHP9500's before I saw your review, but it made me appreciate them more.
I got excited when I saw this in my subscriptions, clicked immediately, and ordered the 9600's half way through this review.
How do these compare to the hd599? I don't see them on your guide.
I got SHP9500 and because you recommended them. Unfortunately the band on mine broke pretty fast.
Was really hoping to see Nathan’s comments on the top comments 😂😂 just ordered the 9500 6 years after you reviewed it, can’t wait to try them out!
Hey Zeos, a suggestion for HiFi Guides. It'd be nice if there was a little key/blurb somewhere explaining what your definitions of the sound 'categories' are (neutral, v-shaped, bright etc). I hear the terminology a lot and have a general idea of what each means but it would be nice as a direct reference.
There is suppose to be a ? next to each category with a short video explaining all the choices.
@@ZReviews Might be on my end but I don't see any ? symbols
Hey zeooos, are you going to review the FiiO LC-BT2 ?
I'm still using my SHP9500 almost everyday! Love it!
I got the Shp9500 because of Zeos. I use them with a VModa mic for my gaming setup.
And, as always, not available in europe/germany -.-
Yeah, fuck the entire audiophile world. Like, MOST people who enjoy good sound do exist outside the US.
But at least we get better deals with speakers here in germany
And asia(atleast not in india)
to get them to Portugal, it would cost me about 158€... there goes the great price. Same as with the 9500...
areis there are better headphones than shp 9500/9600. just get something like HD600, HD560s or DT1990
Welp my shp9500 comes in a week since its my highest budget, after getting my pair ill save up my money to get higher end headphones
Quick tip: if you dont like the harshness, put a coffee filter between the drivers and earpads.
@@Sir_Corgerus saving this for future! Also does a coffee filter mod reduce soundstage?. What about base and imaging effect?. How many layers are you using?.
@@therealb888 I don't use a coffee filter because I don't own a 9500, but my 9600 arrives soon. I just know from users that a single coffee filter calms down the highs.
@@Sir_Corgerus cool thanks for mentioning that. Hope to hear about how you feel about your 9600. I was thinking of using foam but coffee filter sounds like a much better and milder option.
I just ordered a SHP9600, only $65 on Amazon. I don't like a very accentuated high end, and I do appreciate the low end, so the different sound signature should be perfect for me.
Were there good?
@@francohic Yes, they're excellent sound quality. The build is a little on the cheap side and has some creaky plastics, but once they're on my head, they just sit there and sound amazing.
how is the bass? I’m worried it’s weak and won’t work with bass heavy music like pop/hip-hop
Hey man thumbs up to you man. Yes i saw your review on the 9500 and bough them loved them , paired them with the vmoda boom mic when i game. My son tried them out and pretty much took over them . I think i will get the 9600 just to have two different sound signatures and see which games match better with the 9500 or 9600. Great song too Queen radio gaga 👍🏽. I really enjoy your reviews you keep it real and tell it exactly how it is. Thanx again man . Wish you nothing but success. 👍🏽
How do you not know which side of the headphone is left when there is a cable running into that freaking earcup?!
...and it’s always/normally on the left
Yepp both hands up, I love how you said The Default cause it truly is the Default of good headphones.
I don't have 9500 yet cuz i focused on the iems but once im a less broke college student they will be with my sennheiser hd 58x on my college desk! Zeos you're literally the best
Wondering if I should get these now that they are 69.99, or should I just wait until Black Friday to either go for it or find something similar.
Get them if you can find them, they're disappearing from everywhere. Just like the 9500s.
@@TranceHistorian Actually got them on the 8th. Practically brand new for about 20 bucks less.
@@xRevolverServbotthat's epic, how are you finding them?? I found some here brand new for 79 but I have a 10 coupon so hoping to order them tomorrow for 69.😅
@@TranceHistorian there was a listing on eBay that sold them for about 50 pre owned. I expected some light scuffing, but the headphones came in basically brand new with everything included in it's original packaging. The sellers name was "photodeals", so if you see them, what I've discussed should still be accurate. I've underappreciated and ran through a ton of headphones in my audiophile phase as a young adult with disposable income, but these are a lot better than what most reviews made them out to be. Though I'm a bit biased; the original price drives some complaints, but the 9600s outperform the absolute steal of a price range I got them for. These put me back on to liking open back headphones.
Re: the big L & R .... how can you pick up the new pair and get confused which side is which when the it's a single 3.5mm connection on the left side only?
1:09 🙋♂️, 🙋♂️
I remember when i bought them from your in may and i literally love them. My friend literally bought them right after he tried my pair lol
Indeed I got the SHP9500 from this channel plus hearing reviews from other channels and reading more reviews. They were also the most well reviewed open-back headphone in my tiny college budget. Paired with a Fiio E10K
I did tweak the sound a little to tame the highs at 5khz and add a little to the low end (only added/subtracted a couple dB at most).
Based on the review here, it sounds like the 9500 and 9600 compliment each other and as stated, are not upgrades to each other. Perhaps I would have liked the 9600 stock more for the "relaxed" style of sound. But tweaking the 9500's kept the detail and added the low end I needed.
Just by looking at his first original pair of 9500, you can clearly see that he rarely uses those headphones. There is no way in hell he uses them more than 24 hours a year. I have a pair of 9500 and the earpads become a mess after a couple of months.
He has hundreds of headphones which are far more expensive, why would he use the 9500?
L and R labels are pointless when you know the wire is always going to be on the left side
Both hands up!!! Just got my SHP9500 this week and been loving it more each day
*Raises both hands*. THANK YOU!!! I'm still using them 6 years later wire as well, but might be time to replace the audio cable.
I've had other brands before but the wire always broke within a year or two, and being attached to the headphones meant the whole thing was now broken.
If I understand correctly the SHP9500 helped to influence the mid tier headphone market, at least in their designs?
Thanks for making this updated video and still doing your thing. I love honest opinions on products and more so when it's from someone with experience and understanding.
My dad will be getting my pair of SHP9500's. He listened to them and was blown away by their clarity over the Sennheiser PX100-ii that I bought him years ago. I'm going to get the 9600, and maybe an HD560s.
the lack of clamp was my favorite thing about the 9500's...most comfortable pair of headies i've ever worn as someone with a sensitive head due to arthritis. sigh...
Helpful. Thanks.
Raising my hand twice. The wife uses them now since I upgraded to the 6xx, but they're still going strong after like 5 years +
*raises my hand twice*
I got SHP9500's four years ago for my birthday (along with a FiiO E10K), while they're a bit worn, they still work great and I love them dearly!
Hands are up and SHP9500s are on all thanks to you.
both hands here, I have them for around 3 weeks and its been amazing so far.
i like ur videos and i love ur style never change ma man
✋ and ✋ and I daily drive them. Literally everyday for 8 months and they still run great and are still comfortable af
yes I did buy them because of you.
Yeah, I bought the older ones because of your video. They broke earlier this year and I was sad. But I'll buy the new ones if they pass your reviews.
🙋🏻🙋🏻 love the SHP9500 thank you Z!
Both hands high up. I need 2 more hands, bought them for 2 friends and my husband and they all love them as much as I do. ships are the best
👋🏾 Because of you, why I bought SHP9500. To this day absolutely love them!!! Thanks once again✌🏾
I bloody well have the SHP9500! Your review and sound demo helped decide to buy them. And boy the are good! The sound is incredible, comfort OK. I had to buy them in Canada via internet, in Holland they were not available.
Yes to both. Still love them, favorite for gaming to this day.
I'm a bit late ig but i just ordered shp9500s and they arrive later today
ok they just arrive im on like my 4th song definitely by far better than anything ive owned before but probably gonna take a minute to fully appreciate. also laptop dac/amps are probably pretty bad huh ill try plugged into my desktop as well
ok wow
10:35 - "I have a calendar it shows it" lmao
I just got a pair of these.....................My he-400i is now back in it's box. Thank you Zeos! these were just what i was looking for.
I dont have an SHP9500. I'm going to get one soon because you recommended it.
copped on your word. been in love for months
