K-371 : Faithful, comfy, sturdy

4 years ago

I needed headphones for both mixing on the fly and for tracking. For that, they needed to not color the sound in a significant way, light, and closed. These succeed in all of those tasks.

Frequency-wise, to my ear there isn't any particular set of frequencies that stand out. No hissy highs or boomy (or absent) lows. Mid-range is controlled and tightly fit with the rest.

Easy to manage, quick to store away, and with different cables, it's easy to set them up in a way that fits the job at hand.

Field recording - good to carry around, easy to pack away, long cable if you need the distance.

Mixing - despite their being a closed design, they also feel like they breathe well, and their frequency response is smooth through and through.

Tracking - again, long cable to move around, and very light.

Overall, these are headphones that will fit more than one job description in a more than competent manner, and I would definitely recommend them.
