HD-662 : Not exactly brilliant, but useful

I use the Superlux HD-662 as monitoring headphones in the studio. It is very useful for this specific usage and it is not as bad as you could expect for this price when it comes to sound quality – but it’s not exactly brilliant. When you are on budget and maybe need more than one headphone this can be a cheap solution.

+ cheap

+ almost no crosstalk while recording

- not very detailed in sound quality

So if you need a cheap headphone for monitoring or the like, take a look at the Superlux HD-662. But when it comes to mixing or mastering do yourself a favour and spend more money and buy for example the beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO or the AKG K-271. Believe me, they’re worth their money!
