Great mixing headphones for a budget

The sound is absolutely beautiful. Itw loud and clear enough for me to work on any project and it's response is quite flat. I was gonna buy the 700prox but then I came across this masterpiece.
It's sony so don't have to worry about built quality and it's somewhat collapsible so it's ok for traveling.
The sound is crisp and there is no extra punch which is why I use it for production qnd mixing mastering.
If you have a budget then go for it and even if you can buy the 700prox I'd still say save your chaching and buy this and spend that money on something else.
(ALSO HEADPHONE ZONE IS PRETTY GREAT IN TERMS OF PACKAGING AND DELIVERY AS I GOT THIS QUITE FAST. SO YEAH THANKS HZ.)
peaceeeee

Your kind words just made our day! It’s an absolute delight to know that you loved your purchase, we hope you had a comfortable shopping experience and we can't wait to serve you again soon!

Great experience

Overall amazing headphones. Perfect studio monitors. Very detailed. Having a good time listening in this. Finding something new in every song. I have already used beyerdynamic dt770 and audio technica m50x. But I like these more. Dt770s treble boost was too harsh for my ears. This sounds like m50xs without the extreme high boost and deep bass boost. Sounds fairly flat. You cannot miss any frequencies in these. From deep bass to extreme highs, perfectly balanced, with slight upper mid focus, that sounds very good. That gives the clarity to these headphones. I am working with krk rokit 5 monitors, this headphone gives the same feel, but this gives the detailed sub bass that the rokit 5 cannot give. I'm planning to make this my primary mixing headphones. Thanks to Andrew Scheps for inspiring me to buy these. There is no competition for these in this price range. This one beats the more pricier models. No regrets. Go for it and have fun.

Thanks a lot for your detailed and genuine feedback, we're glad that you have such positive thoughts about the product and we'll share your thoughts with the brand as well. It'll also help our fellow customers to make the right choice!
