Top 5 Studio
Headphones

1)
Audio Technica ATHM50
Professional Monitor Headphones
Let's begin with all the comfort- These particular
headphones are very comfortable when compared with the
others.
You will actually be able to listen to your
productions all day with one of these ear pieces and yes it will not hurt or
disrupt you at all, Enhanced comfort allows you to record for many hours in
the day.
The sound quality is astounding, when you tune in
to listen tobeats using these joints you will be in your own
world which is great when producing records. You can't even listen to
yourself.
Make an attempt to holler really loud whenever you
listen to music with these headphones , I guarantee you will not hear
yourself screaming.
Another huge advantage in these Studio headphones-
is the bass sound quality is amazing and very clear which will be great for
mixing your music.
It also includes nice shielding pouch and one yr
manufacturer's warranty.
Audio-Technica ATH-M50s/LE -
$149.99
A lot of people even compares these headphones
with Beats Studio by Dr. Dre, my opinion:
The studio beats headphones are remarkable
headphones! But the M50's sound quality does hold its old compared to the
Beats By Dre , the noise cancelling technology is great which makes your
beats sound a lot more clear.
The price tag on the
Audio Technica M50 headphones is less than half, and from my
knowledge, M50 is much more more comfortable.
Don't get me wrong, I think that Beats Studio are
wonderful headphones and they also have many advantages, but ultimately is
your choice but you will not lose either way.

2)
Beyerdynamic DT 770
PRO

This particular
headphone completely engulf your ears and just like the
Audio Technica
M50 are also
extremely comfortable, it feels like a couple pillows resting upon your head
when you put these on.
I'm a recording
studio engineer and I use these babies all day longfor studio
sessions.
What I enjoy about
them is that you can blast your latest tunes without annoying any one beside
you because the sound won't escape you ear buds.
The main focus is
for the artist or producer to be in his/her own world without any outside
distractions and this
headphone delivers on
that aspect.
In terms of the
music sound aspect of the DT 770 Pro's, fairly bassy but also very clean
especially fitted for r&b and hip hop music.
Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO -
$169.95
The high peaks are a bit absent. But this is
actually a bass driven studio headphone and I thats a great thing and why
they are great.
They're also strong and durable (backback ready!!)
thats needed if your and artist or producerswho travels from studio to
studio.
The only misstep that I could find with these
headphones were that they were to BIG for my tiny ass head. But as a studio
engineer we have the right to look ridiculous in the
studio.

3)
Sennheiser HD 25-1
II
The audio sound
quality of these is extremely well balanced, with an excellent bass effect, I
think is mainly because of the excellent isolation they offer
here.
The
actual audio stage is just about typical for a closed headphone inside this cost
range which is more expensive compared to the first two
headphonesbut
they are well worth the
price.
Nevertheless, separation on more
intricate compositions is extraordinary in my
opinion.
They're pretty delicate and easy to pack up, which makes them
ideal for movable use.
The SennheiserHD 25-1
II -
$218.80
Like most high end
headphones, they additionally reap some benefits from top of the range sound,
however it is by no means needed to attain their
potential.
I actually own these
joints most of my rap
instrumentals were made
using these.
Because of the
balanced sound quality, these will surprise enthusiasts of any type of
music.
They are every bit
as suited for video gaming or studio recording.
The Sennheiser HD 25-1 II
is a highly recommended
headphone so go check it
out.

4)
Beats By Dre Studio
You normally hear
individuals offline and online moaning regarding the
beats
headphones really being
far too expensive.
I think they may be
just a tad over priced, think about 3 hundred for a pair of
headphones?
Others also preach
about how you can obtain headphones with top quality for about half the price
tag on beats by dre. Are they right?
These headphones are
not economical to some degree, but to me having reviewed these headphones
they are increadible earpieces!
The above the head
layout design and cozzy ear cups make certain they are an exceptionally
secure pair of headphones.
Beats By Dre Studio
- $299.00
The bass audio sound
on the Beats are great and above the competition.
I have compared them
with the other competitive brands and the Studios have blown its competitors
away thats my opinion.
The reason I have
them at number 4 and not number 1 is the price tag on these babies
299.00
You will enjoy these
high decibel thumping headphones, for anything you want to use them for
whether is studio recording or as your Apple ipod's main tool. The headphones
are available distinct colors.
Really the only
feature i don’t like regarding the headphones is the fact they need 2 AAA to
operate and thats a downer but overall tremendous headphone
from
Beats By
Dre.

5)
Sony MDR
7506
These headpho nes are
perfect for the purchase price of $99.00. They feature a fantastic balanced
audio which happens to be delightful.
The actual bass is rather stretched and its balanced with the
overall sound.
The sound quality is great though not too sleek
buy silky smooth, it happens to be kind of missing out on the mid bass end of
the scale.
The highs on the
Sony MDR 7506 come alive, at times too much and require a
little bit of eq to tone it down a tad for your ear drums to
handle.
These headphones are ideal for studio monitoring
and mixing.
Convenience is substantial along with the cozy
padding, makes them much more desirable.
In addition they will no doubt survive a very long
time due to the light weight aluminum construction. Not too many headphones
are build this way nowadays.
Sony MDR 7506 -
$99.00
I would recommend this the Sony MDR 7506 To
anybody looking to purchase earpieces for under $100.00
greenbacks.
