MDR-7506 : an upgrade worth having

the purpose of this monitors is to tell you the truth and that's exactly what they do, i am using them to "train" my ears to be sharper and more accurate and they are wonderful for that purpose.

in my case is for voice and vocal monitoring and they pick up a WIDE spectrum of sound and deliver it as advertised.

Pros: honesty of sound and good build quality, as well as look good in my opinion,

Cons: price can be an issue , but they are an industry standard .

And as mentioned, comfort is not their strong suit. after about 30-60 mins you feel ear fatigue and have to re-adjust them.

Pro&con: the non detachable curled cable ,is conformable while recording, but in editing after a while you feel the weight of the bulky cable on your left side.

conclusion : BUY! its the best education that your ears can get if you wanna advance your skills .
