The Sennheiser 280 and Sennheiser 380’s are closed ear head phone. It’s designed for a louder environments. The difference is quality. They both deliver great sound quality but the 380 will kick it up a notch.
Put is this way:
Give the 280’s to your director or producer. It will give them the sound that they want to hear. The 380’s deliver that super critical quality with the isolation that you need.
And for the price you really can’t beat these guys.
