    It's a headset that I use for two or three years.
    I was at beginners recordings of voices and guitars, as well as the mix ... what a mistake!
    For recording it well trs, tench enough to not hear the music in the background, at least to push the volume much like a patient sr ...
    But for mixing, you have to forget (except for rglage pan) is not sufficient for a Fidler! some are a little too frquences EXAGRES.
    This is a purchase that I would do today I think not, I would buy a more upscale MODEL m'viterait that having too much use monitoring speakers (question neighborhood!). That said in his range level I think it is excellent in terms of the competition!

    I have tried this headphone that many of my friends possdent. I myself have an AKG K240m.

    I found it beautiful trs, trs comfortable (although it wraps right around the ears but not too much as my AKG), with excellent sound trs Dfine well, but unfortunately the built-in mdium seemed EXAGRES but it just sounds unnatural. Stereo image of the rest seemed narrower than on my K240.

    It is way be closed but no sound comes out of headphones (not repisse), it does not isolate or not the wearer of ambient noise.

    That said, I can not guarantee that you will hear the same thing I have not heard enough to make me notice DEFINITIONS.

    I just got it, just costs quickly, but already enjoyable surprise is the first headset of this quality and I buy nothing that compared to other headphones I've had, we feel a Difference that is not even a judge in short, the bass totally nailed me.
    It encompasses many ears, I have not been able to try it for a long time, I find it very comfortable.
    I think that report quality price level is a good investment, mdr 7509 is relatively more expensive all the same and for a better quality really do not know but with the budget that I I'm really happy with the cost.
    I'm not disappointed to do with the time but eh expriences after the other, I am confident.

    Excellent headphone if used for what it is intended: control!
    This is a headphone that analyzes the signal. If there is any glitch in your sound, you will jump to the ears.
    I bought this headphone 30% cheaper than my Sennheiser premium to compensate for the shortcomings of the sibling who, unlike 7506, is a very soft even while its soft and that the blow is too vague. The bass is so "beneath" it is impossible to assess its quality.

    I would one day hear a great mix made exclusively to the headphone. I doubt sincerely that we can do without a good pair of speakers to hope than quality "model home".

    I like the precision of the headphone, which is bad enough to mix, but for recording, including voice, it is a wonder! Not least because it must be in the top lgrement EXAGRES mdiums I think ... No repisse either ... In short, the pros have chosen, too ...

    I use it for two weeks and I redcouvre costs of the sensations of the studios.
    It possde good insulation of the environment and is lightweight.
    I knew the ath 910 audio technica pro for 50 euros and it has nothing more to see.
    The report price is average quality (it's a REFERENCE ...).

    Great phones. I use them for detailed listening, tracking, etc. - even mixed. Mixing to headphones in general is not the best idea, but if you know your headphones and what things should sound like for a good mix, its not THAT hard. I've done better mixes with these than some of the cookie-cutter template mixes you'll hear everyday from the high end studio. With all of the different types of headphones on the market today its hard to pick a solid pair that are stable. These are very stable there arent pretty to look at like some of the skull candy headphones or dre beats. But they do the job, I put these up there right with the dre beats. Not as good though, but close. Plus the price is ver…

These are very stable there arent pretty to look at like some of the skull candy headphones or dre beats. But they do the job, I put these up there right with the dre beats. Not as good though, but close. Plus the price is very affordable. I am not sure if they still make these, I got mine back in 2004.


    These headphones are super comfortable, and the fold-up design is awesome. I've owned my pair for at least 7 years and they're just about all I've used. They're very durable and they sound REALLY good. And in fact, that is probably my only issue with the 7506. They sound too good. Pretty much every mix I've ever done with them sounds unbelievably awesome in the headset, but when the final mix is played on another system, there is much to adjust. I guess you just have to learn to compensate, but it seems like a lot of compensation especially on the lows and clarity of it all (as in the headset sounds much fuller, clearer and punchier than the mix really is).


    Overall, These headphones also have great bass response and very detailed mids and highs. I use these to monitor my mixes and they come out very good and translate well over my studio monitors. I also have the Sennheiser eH-150 headphones and I use them now strictly for tracking vocals.

    I use this headphone for several years. What struck me most when I tried it, it's accuracy and linearity. I have tried many headphones, and the MDR7506 is by far the clearest and most accurate.
    on the other hand, it's a headphone pro: someone that is not a professional sound (so accustomed to listening to a plate) will find that these headphones sound medium. The stereo headphones great public always have a hollow in the medium to make a big sound with bass and treble surraccentués, to the detriment of the accuracy and linearity. So a professional point of view, it is great.

    Note that bandwidth is very broad, and it is very very punchy. And even if it is a bit expensive, it more accurately than the MDR7509 and premium Beyer, both become even greater.

    In addition, it is easily transportable and each piece can be changed without specialized smallest batch sizes. It is true that when one is pro, it's a big advantage.

    So I really nickel and referrer this choice without hesitation.

    I use this headphone for several years in professional radio and television.
    This headphone is perfect for my ears the broadcast studio monitoring.
    What I like is the sound: fair, fine, clear but slightly colored in the lower frequency, which gives an effect of power.
    I wear it less than 4 hours, still tired because my ears (20 years in the business anyway).
    I used AKG 240 Monitor before and Studio 240, but this is not the same type of headphone is better suited for long monitoring.

    Indeed, as mentioned above, the headphone has a good potato in the treble, I like that personal, you can work well the details. Matter of taste. The bass is excellently rendered. If they sound good in that headphone, they will sound good everywhere!
    Very plain design, which gives it a solid: to check with use!

    I already had the ears of Sennheiser (which I do definitely not ergonomic, although the sound is terrible) and a very old Beyer Dynamic (so hard to judge).

    Paid 170 euros: it is well worth it!

    I would do definitely the choice. If I understand correctly, the Sony MDR is a reference headphones for monitoring worldwide, it's mine too!
    Big 10.
