HPH-MT5 : Great value headphones!

8 years ago

I bought these headphones for my newly setup home recording studio thinking I will be using them as a back-up pair to my Sennheiser HD 569's. Well it turned out the other way round, I now use these as my main recording headphones. There actually amazing sounding headphones that don't color the sound and give a clear and neutral representation of what I hear though my studio monitors. While tracking vocals I noticed especially how lovely the highs are heard, this is usually a weak point in cheaper headphone models. I even tried mixing with them (just a few tracks) and found it suprisingly easy. The only weak point I can find is that after wearing them for a longer period of time they start to get a bit uncomfortable, but that is a small trade off at this price point.
