If you're serious about music quality, you know how important headphone specs are to the overall listening experience. Not all headphones are up to the task of giving listeners a high-quality sound that's matched with a comfortable fit. However, just like Cinderella found her glass slipper, there's one pair of headphones that's worthy of the investment, and it's over half off today.

As of Jan. 21, the Sennheiser HD 599 headphones are just $96.99 at Amazon, marked down from the standard price of $199.95. That works out to a 51% discount and an overall savings of $102.96.

When Sennheiser decided to focus on both sound quality and comfort with the HD 599 headphones, we (rightfully) got pretty stoked. And they showed up to both parties. On Mashable's roundup of the most comfortable headphones, the Sennheiser HD 599 earn the spot as the best for sound quality.

Mashable's Lead Shopping Reporter Dylan Haas praised both the comfortable fit and the sound on the HD 599. "While the main draw here is that amazing sound quality, comfort is by no means an afterthought," explains Haas. "They feature a nice, wide frame that isn't too tight on your head, as well as soft and fluffy ear pads that feel like your favorite blanket."

It's worth mentioning that while the open back design of the HD 599 makes for a super comfortable experience and supreme sound quality, it also means they leak noise. This, combined with the wired design, means these aren't the perfect headphones for flying.

But the wires on the Sennheiser HD 599 are pretty great, actually. They come with both a 3.5mm and 6.3mm jack, giving you the versatility to use them with your phone, laptop, and your at-home stereo. The wired design also means you'll never have to worry about battery life or finding an ideal time to recharge.

For great sound with all-day comfort, it's hard to beat the Sennheiser HD 599 headphones. Perhaps one of the main drawbacks was the $199.95 price tag, but today's deal at Amazon slashes that by 51%, so you can snag a pair for just $96.99. Who said high-quality had to come with a high price tag? Not us.
