Mdr-cd900st Studio Monitor Stereo Headphones

There are allot of new amazing headphones out there, all with 'promises, promises'.. The MDR CD900 ST are the last of the loved MDR red band models.. 'They don't build them like they used too !!'.. Yes they do... these are it. 'There has to be a middle ground, a reference we can all work from'.. these are it. 'It's a harsh line between a studio headphone that's flat & a hi fi headphone that makes everything sound great'., These are it. If you're young & itchy, go buy yourself a pair of the Rode NTH100, if you've been in the industry longer than the young have been alive, & you don't want to risk regret with the MDR-M1ST.. treat yourself to a trusted classic. These are the bright eyed, slightly older but hotter sister of the MDR7506. Only negative, (which isn't really a negative ) is that these are 'on ear' not 'over ear' but don't let that put you off, check out YAXI ear pads.. as pictured, amazing.. even with my massive ears, turned these into the most comfortable over ear headphones I've ever worn, could not be happier.

Esta es una opinión subjetiva y personal…Realmente valen cada centavo. Frecuencia plana, sonido que no miente, ideal para mezclar grabaciones. No son para escuchar música de manera casual mientras vas a la escuela, o para Djs (a menos que sean músicos de verdad que tengan la capacidad de ejecutar un instrumento y no solo poner play en una maquina). Son para mezclar, escuchar errores en la grabación y corregir ejecuciones por un precio razonable; mucho muy superiores para mezcla que los Sony MDR 7506, estos últimos son mas para escuchar música lúdicamente que para trabajar en ella. Muchos se quejan de los cojines y recomiendan comprar reemplazo. Yo no lo creo así, no son incomodos, son ligeros y de buena calidad, a menos que tengas orejas anormalmente grandes. De cualquier manera Yo recomiendo no usar ningún tipo de audífono por tiempos prolongados, no solo porque te resulten incomodos, sino porque el nivel de audición de tu oído pagará el precio, no es correcto y no hay vuelta atrás en el daño. En fin, excelentes audífonos.

Best headphones for actually flat studio level hearing. SOLID. 10/10

I have been using a well broken-in pair (and much reviled by the headfi.org crowd) of Koss Pro4AAAT for some now. I wanted to try something new and bought these. My decision was based on several factors. These have rave reviews everywhere. I recall reading a post somewhere that the midrange these headphones produce is "magic". But it is more than having been reviewed by golden-eared kids on headfi.org - these are supposedly used in all the studios in Asia by real professionals who make the music that we listen to, and they should know what a good pair of headphones should sound like. These headphones are also considered by many to be superior to the popular highly regarded Sony 7506 headphones. I listened to a number of studio monitor headphones but I never heard Sony 7506. I owned a very similar model, a highly rated Senal SMH-1000, and I gave it up because it sounded too abrasive to my ears. Anyway, Sony MDR-CD9000ST is a very good looking pair of headphones, except for that cheesy 80's "for digital" sticker, as if someone still makes headphones strictly for analog music. The headphones are slim and not overbuilt, but the fit and finish is excellent. They are very light and comfortable. I could keep them on for hours. Compared to these, my Koss headphones feel like two bricks squeezing my head, although I am used to it. But the sound did not impress me. The sonic signature was similar to the Senal headphones, except that the sound was much more delicate and refined. Still, to me the headphones sounded "zingy", "hissy" and "wispy" - bright, sibilant, lightweight and thin. I listened to the headphones for about 20-30 hours and nothing seemed to change. I really wanted to keep these but I like what I like so I am going to have to give them up and go back to my Koss phones. Although I did not care for their sound, I am still going to rate these five stars, because these are very popular professional quality headphones that have their purpose - maybe the studio mixes created by using them turn out to be superior? Unfortunately, only a few models of headphones are available locally to be auditioned, and they are typically the least expensive ones. So we end up relying on amateur reviews to make purchasing decisions. These reviews really don't mean much, because we all have our individual preferences. The self-professed experts throw around terms like soundstage, bass quantity, treble extension, and whether there is a midbass hump or a low treble suckout. You can read stuff like "V-shaped dark presentation" and similar nonsense. Manufacturers would probably laugh if they read some of those reviews. What matters the most to me is how the headphones are voiced. I like gorgeous, fleshed out tones. When I hear an instrument, like a piano or a violin, I listen for the body and texture of the sound. When I hear a drum, I want to feel the energy of the impact. My advice is to listen to these before buying.

MDR-1Aを持っていますが、久しぶりにバンドをやることになったので購入。 容赦ない原音再生かいいですね。 低音強調などの味付け一切なし。 いつまで生産してくれるかわからないから、2万以下で買えるなら今買って持っておきたいと思いました。 ケースがないので、サードパーティー製のものをAmazonで購入しました。 サイズピッタリで満足しています。
