The Philips SHP9600 Wired Over-Ear Headphones - open-back design, 50mm neodymium drivers tuned to the ear's natural geometry, 3.0m detachable cable with gold-plated connections. Deep bass, balanced midrange and pristine highs for home listening, TV, HiFi and studio monitoring. Breathable ear cushions and steel-reinforced headband for all-day comfort.

✓ Open-back design - wide natural soundstage, room-filling audio
✓ 50mm neodymium drivers - deep bass, balanced mids, pristine highs
✓ 3.0m detachable cable - reach your TV, HiFi or desktop with ease
✓ Gold-plated 3.5mm + 6.3mm adapter · breathable ear cushions

The Philips SHP9600 builds on the SHP9500's open-back heritage with a more refined tuning and a longer 3.0m detachable cable designed specifically for home listening environments - the extra cable length reaches a TV, HiFi system or desktop setup without tethering you to the device. The 50mm neodymium drivers are engineered to align with the ear's natural geometry, delivering deep and controlled bass, a rich balanced midrange and extended high frequencies without harshness. Breathable ear cushions and a double-layered headband cushion make multi-hour listening sessions genuinely comfortable. For anyone who listens seriously at home and wants the transparency of open-back audio with enough cable to move freely around their listening space, the SHP9600 is the considered choice.

Sound

Open-Back · Natural Soundstage

Open-back headphones allow air to move freely through the ear cup grilles, creating a wide, natural soundstage that closed-back designs cannot replicate. Sound appears to come from around you rather than from inside your head - instruments and voices are placed convincingly in space. For music the effect is a more lifelike, concert-hall quality. For film and TV it adds genuine depth to the audio experience. The SHP9600's drivers are specifically tuned for the warmer, more musical presentation suited to home listening.

Cable

3.0m Detachable · Gold-Plated

The SHP9600's 3.0m cable is twice the length of the SHP9500's 1.5m - a meaningful difference for home use. 3 metres reaches a television, HiFi amplifier, desktop computer or DAC without forcing you to sit directly in front of the source. The cable is detachable at the headphone end via a 3.5mm connection, making cable replacement simple and allowing shorter third-party cables for use with portable devices. Gold-plated connectors on both the cable and the included 6.3mm adapter ensure clean signal transmission without corrosion over time.

Comfort

Built for Home Listening Sessions

Breathable ear cushions allow airflow and prevent heat and pressure build-up during extended listening. The ear cups are engineered to align with the natural geometry of the ear, ensuring the drivers are optimally positioned for every listener. A steel-reinforced headband adds durability and provides the right amount of clamping tension - secure without fatigue. A double-layered cushion distributes the headband's weight across the top of the head. Adjustable sizing with clear markings ensures a consistent fit.
