I can confirm that Sennheiser Hd480 pro are certainly right now the best over ear headphones out there for E-Drumming!

Since I use closed back headphones for E-Drumming) for almost 12 years I tried almost all brands.

What makes these 480pro so good:
1.
Comfort (sure it has to fit your head size!)

The weight distribution, weight and pads are the best I encountered, i.e. even the second best comfortable Austrian Audio Hi-x 60, are not as light on the head, the headband of the Hd480pro does not even touch the top of my head, superb! Sennheisers 620s has a little better isolation, but 480pro is not far behind.
The fabric of the cup which contacts ears is even more comfortable and non sweaty than Sure alcantara pads. I experienced hottest day in history of Germany last week, what can I say.....it worked....
Please check this list for further information in terms of comfort, cable and weight, driver type

2. Sound
In terms of sound there is IMHO no contest, only Sennheiser HD480 are able to deliver a natural, realistic and punchy sound, which features really deep bass, quite good natural mids, agreeable (a little soft and not much extended) treble, they are not congested, not annoying honky and weird in the mids which almost all closed headphones are.

Cheaper Sennheiser 620s are also ok and recomended, but lack subs, treble is a bit harsh, they are also less direct and thinner in the mids/sub bass and more distant sounding.

Focal Azurys lack good secure fit and isolation, mids are less congested than Radiance, but very simlar. I like both Sennheisers way way more.

Sure the bass of very expensive and heavier and absolute best isolating AKG 872 and Focal Radiance (to a much lesser degree only in terms of punch) is more solid, clear, detailed, analytical and punchier (Focal)....but the AKG/Focal core sound does not sound natural, the mids are a always weird...treble nothing special on Focals a little metallic and both are imho much more annoying for long term use.

Only DCA E3 (2500 Euro) are a touch more natural and 3d sounding (trait of planar) and feature better best treble (in terms of closed back), but they are not punchy mid centric, beefy E-drum headphones, they are heavy, isolation is almost not existant.....you have to eq a lot iof upper bass and mids, which is extremely difficult and depends on special expensive headphone amps or latest RME hp outputs...a pain in the a.........otherwise not loud enough.
Punch still lacks a bit with DCA headphones....they are very neutral, most resolving and calm though, for simple listening best closed heaphones I know, I add more mids, upper bass and a slight high shelf with eq.

Denon and Fostex (isolation is meh) line is quite open, non congested sounding, but also thin in the mids and upper bass....treble is extended but somehow weird.....imho if you like Beyerdynamics (harsh treble peak, distant sounding, weak bass, reduced mids) Fostex and Denon are better versions of this sound profile.....I do not like this big stage and distant performance....I like player perspective of Hd480 pro, 620s, Focal line and AKG way more.

You might ask, "hey, why are no closed and very expensive Hifiman Audivina, closed Sennheiser Hd820, closed Focal Stellia included in my test, review?

These headphones models should be flagships of their line/brand.

I have tried them side by side with my Focal Radiance/HD620 and very good open (again no e-drum) Hifiman 10000se/Austrian Audio Composer (both imho show what is possible today in terms of dynamic and planar driver open design) at my local dealer.

Result:
Audivina, Hd820, Stellia are all horrible, considering their price even ridiculous.

The mids and even (sub)bass (on HD820, Audivina) are horrible, they sacrificed a good frequency response for a bigger stage more depth.


Reason:
In the Hifi world a lot of people swear by deep stage, holographic 3dness, audience perspective....the legendary (not usable for e-drums open Sennheiser Hd800) delivers this in spades.....but they lack a lot of bass and have on several heads in quite brutal lower treble. You are in a kind of soundcloud, very airy.

IMHO different brands (Focal, Sennheiser, Hifiman) tried to implement this sound behavior into an already (always!!!) inherent problematic closed headphone design at all costs. i.e. further weakening the frequency response.
For this reason in terms of frequency response these expensive flagship models fail, i.e. especially in the mids, which are the most important requency to gain a natural perception

Audivina perception:

HD 820 perception:

Focal Stellia (the best of these three) Radiance is better (although technically not as advanced)

So, why including them, does make no sense.

The importance of mids, reason Hd480pro are so good (similarity to open Sennheiser Hd600, not usable for E-drums open design headphone)

Very good video, I have also a very similar perception, not in terms of Audeze!

His thesis (this is a mastering perspective, he is focusing strongly on mids, natural performance) he is neglecting bass performance a lot.

Hd480 was not released, he has also not heard Hd620 also quite new.....

We will see......
