All user reviews for the Sony MDR-V500

I have this headphone for two years (if I remember correctly). And that's a deuxime head. I find it comfortable trs. The sound is well equilibrated even if it is not perfectly linear, but when a ringing in the V500, there is 95% chance that a ringing everywhere. This is the complment IDAL because of my MSP5 down a little lower and lower because the V500 that saturate saturate everywhere. Therefore an excellent CONTRL. I use it to the monitoring and mixing as well as the work of Stereo image when I have my doubts.
I put 10 for the companion reliable, enduring and endearing: truly one of the most satisfying of my Home Stud Stud studio.

I possde mdrv500 sony headphones for 2 years and I think the sound is not too clear trs neutral and not too bad when compared to the stanton headphones or other color, and boost the bone, I say that it is almost same compared to my audiophile speaker sound dynamics REFERENCE MODEL 300TI by industry professionals and have a copy for Linari a box of less than 1000 $.

But back to the headset.

the headphone trs prs seem to me of the original and for those who like non-aggressive sound and full of life you will be surprised and this enjoyable on all types of music.
we really enjoy the more it agrees to cost a good capacity of 1000 milli watts do what 1 watt, so that would be for dj heavy volume on the low risk of blowing up the headphones a condition not nitre distortion which is harmful to any type of speaker and even a headphone.

dfaux but only two small, the fragility of the plastic hoops one day going to the other cass especially if you have a big head, but a little glue a plastic arrange everything and you will for a long time years of operation and dedicated service.

second point, with a MUCH especially if you extend your apartment and not your neighbor Dranger the night there to shake your head and you're heating your ears if you wear long, We recall that a pair of first and foremost for dj and studio so he must shake his ears buzzing for the collection's outdoor does not pass through the headphones and just listen to the music and the headphones.

trs the wire is strong and lean not risk breaking so no loss of sound in one channel or another.

adapter that dvisse (invention of Sony) and turns plug 1 / 4 a sheet 1 / 8 so you can plug your MP3 player.

In conclusion, the mdrv500 is a headphone with what has been a pleasure listening to music, it sounds good and is linear with a rev good price but is fragile because majority made of plastic therefore Sony has your board has plans for us to design a headphone for some stronger dj who does not sound child heart with their hardware

How long have you use it?

Dja last year he has just broken, I explain to APRS.

What is the particular feature you like best and least?

rgler very easy, the swivel ear cups, the dynamics of the signal. BMOL: the weight and the jack, let me explain, the jack is not right and sew it at home it has finally cass (not resolder as well).

Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

yes, seinheser low-end and middle: a subwoofer deaf on the head, and fatguant dsagrable, plus they used the head too (well it is for low-end type 50 .

Here I find it covers well without comprsser ears and the sound is low mdium equilibrated trs. Trs good dynamic.

How do you report qualitprix?

Well, I was buying the 100 era, can be a CHRE can (as the jack shit, it's pretty frustrating)

Exprience with, you will do again this choice?

have done so when he sews the jack, otherwise a good headphone for trs dj and those who like a neutral sound with good bass Defines, etc. of mdium present.

How long have you use it?

6 months

What is the particular feature you like best and least?

strangely I see that I am the only deu.
this headphone is unable to decendre under 90Hz (you must admit that for a fan of reggae or drum and bass is annoying).
I ask the impossible, but when there are sub-bass jaimerai hear them!

So here are missing a large part of the spectrum.
useless equalizer to death, the headphone saturates ..

I mean not even the comfort (it's close to torture) even after 6 months a twist in all directions I'm still not.

Exprience with, you will do again this choice?

no, and I say that I have not chosen, c'tait a gift.

test it before you buy!

I have this headphone for several years. I bought it wanting something lightweight and convenient and pretty ....
... I was wrong!

The headset is anything but comfortable, it presses the head serious. And when I say serious, it is not in the frequencies. L is not totally bad but really below many others my taste (AKG 240 and Sennheiser HD250 to name but I know a little)
My Hi-Fi headphone is the Sennheiser and comfort issue listens and musical quality, it is one hundred elbows above the Sony.
Suddenly, I no longer use the Sony headphones that plug into my PC, and even the same when it is hard stand on the head, and its cost is tiring.
In short, you'll understand that I would do not have that choice. Especially since I had found it expensive when purchased. When you love you do not count, they say.
Yes, but I have not specially the aim.
The board is given by the collgue always try it before buying.

I've been using the Sony MDR-V500 studio headphones for about two years. These headphones are a favorite of a lot of engineers for monitoring while recording and for checking mixes on. They are built well and have a full sound overall. This being said, they are headphones and they don't have a huge low end presence. While they aren't isolation headphones really, they do block out most of the sound when you are monitoring while recording, but won't block out all the noise - the ear phones just aren't big enough to fit snug enough to block out all the noise, although they do fit comfortably. The sound of the MDR-V500s is full and it covers the whole frequency spectrum except for the very low end. I would compare these headphones to the Sennheiser HD 280 Pro headphones as they are similar in price. While the HD 280 Pros have a much better low end presence, the overall sound quality is pretty comparable and both will deliver an accurate sound. I would say that I prefer the Sennheiser headphones better because of the low end presence that makes them better for mixing, although I never do too much mixing on headphones. I would say that these are best suited for monitoring while recording and for checking mixes rather than mixing itself. For this reason I would recommend these headphones to those looking for a great pair of headphones for overall use, but would also encourage those interested to check out the Sennheisers I mentioned as it is a matter of personal preference. The MDR-V500 are very reasonable in price, which is less than a hundred dollars USD, and are an overall great set of headphones that deliver a full sound for such a small set of headphones at such a small price.
