    It will never replace the speakers but you get to work on the finesse.

    Admittedly, it took me some time to adapt to the headphone, but it is fast enough!

    It is enjoyable to wear trs and its color does not tire the ear after several hours of use.

    And it is not fully closed by repisse for registration is very practical

    Like any range MDR he keeps a certain power when pushed a bit.

    What I like least is one's personal and dtail but the twisted wire.
    I find it boring and ca s'acroche everywhere!

    Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

    A few prs all headset renowned whether the Beyerdynamic, AKG, Sennheiser, the small ERRF 7506 etc ...

    And yes there is a price diffrence between the 7506 and justifications that have the same test me.

    How do you report qualitprix?

    A little chr, but unfortunately the sound, always pay the price for the quality ...

    Exprience with, you will do again this choice? ...

    Without hsitez but yet I would like to add two three lments before finishing pav.

    Compared to what I read later in the opinion:

    Do not forget that the MDR7509 is in the range HD (High Definition) which does not appear on Audiofanzine.

    This headphone is designed to work and refinement of a music mix or other ESSENCE. Sony Defines a professional monitoring headphones ...

    So if you like that your DJ can happen to me my spare time and want big sound with, buy a headphone matching.

    No one will have the ide to a Neumann U87 into a bass drum, and much the same thing.

    APRs must be added to the purchase the headphone is too "tight" at the membrane, it requires a slight dbridage to really have any scale and release these frquences that appear in the lower just missing the beginners.

    I suggest you let it run several hours in a vacuum rgulieremnt on calm music with beautiful tablecloths, Avoid styles too nags at beginners unless costs you ca: p

    This is an advice but for me it is an important step that will allow to assert a more enjoyable or aggressive color headphone.

    Finally it is not just be the best headphones for listening to music, since that is quite rvlateur imperfections, it will not give a feeling as smooth and enjoyable as a good headphone Hifi. I cost with that said, it's not unbearable

    For technical specifications:

    Strong magnet (Systm nodyme)
    Type: Dynamic / Fermbr /> Bandwidth: 5Hz - 80kHz (I'm not really see the advantage meant nothing because I own APRS 20Khz)
    Impdance: 24Ohms (1kHz)
    Sensitivity: 107dB/mW
    Power handling: 3000mW
    Weight: 300g
    Gold-plated connector

    For résumé, think the use you want to do before putting your headphones in a headphone 290.

    And always tesez headphones, ca buy blindly is madness!

    Rectification:

    This headphone is a marvel of the spectrum, especially do not judge on first hearing must (in the words of the Sony ings) at least 100 hours to make it dcoute rod ...

    final score: 1000-1020
    CATEGORY: Legend of the sound!
    Correction: after a user has. this headphone is fragile and trs trs expensive .. you can do better for cheaper .. the only thing is that I do not know where and what brand. can anyone enlighten us?
    I calm my enthusiasm a little at the sound qulit. With only bose 901 (crap I know) and to compare mdr 7509, I finally know what to say. This headphone is definitely not perfect, as fragile and fairly isolated and have a sound with an accuracy aperemment dubious. Listen to your mixes with this headphone and another before you buy. Listen to the above before buying. I do not know if I'll stay home next time sony

    I've had this pair of headphones for years, which is a great testimony to their longevity. Most pairs of headphones last me a year or two, but I've had these at least 5 and they're in great shape. I originally got this on recommendation by a friend of mine, saying that I should go for these over the more popular 7506 headphones that Sony offers. I compared them both at the store, and definitely agreed. You get a better depth of sound and realism in these phones than you do with the 7506's. The frequency response is similar if not exactly the same, but I think the difference is in the response to dynamics and transients. The quick hits seem more crisp in these.

    I've had this pair of headphones for years, which is a great testimony to their longevity.

The frequency response is similar if not exactly the same, but I think the difference is in the response to dynamics and transients. The quick hits seem more crisp in these.

    The noise rejection is fair in these headphones. They do cover your ear completely, but they are not very tight on your head. That means they're more comfortable to wear which is also important, but that more of the outside noise is going to get in, and vice versa. So you might want to keep another pair around for when you're recording close up to a vocal mic, because you will probably get a little spill into the mic from these headphones.

    Barring that complaint, they are otherwise a great pair and the price for them is fair. You definitely pay for Sony quality, but if you care about sound fidelity, it's worth the price you pay for their brand name. I'd get them again, listening to music sounds great in them and I like to use them while monitoring when I'm recording someone else. They also give you a snazzy velvet bag for safe keeping if you take them traveling, as well as a converter to go from 1/8" to 1/4". Nice bonuses!
