Behringer HPM1000

Sounds good

I ordered this set to replace the exact same one I've been using with my main computer. Sound quality is very good, although volume level is low.

perfect

good cheap decent quality headphones

Je krijgt waar je voor betaald, dat in gedachten houdend is het een okay product. Het zit comfortabel, pasvorm is goed en als je er een beetje normaal mee omspringt kan het ding jaren mee. Het geluid wat eruit komt is niet om over naar huis te schrijven, blikkerig, weinig hoog en weinig laag en een erg vlak midden. Maar zoals gezegd, voor die paar centen is het een mooi en goed product.

great headphones

comfortable, sounds pleasant to listen to, durable, great to check the low end on mixes

Quality meets price

The build quality is very good. The kit includes an adapter. They sit comfortably on the head. My ears don't get tired of them. One wire is very convenient. But the sound of the uni certainly matches the inexpensive headphones. It is a little fuzzy and indistinct. But for the price, not a bad option. If you listen to news radio, then it will do. But for music, I'll take the more expensive ones.

Durable for school daily uses

We brought 4 headphones 2 years ago and it's still under good condition. Good quality and durable under this price.

Behringer

Comfortable to use, little weakness power.Clear sound and good bass, but haven't deep bass.

Good value for money but beware EMI

I bought 8 sets of these along with a Behringer HA8000 Powerplay headphone amp. (The original intention was to record a group of singers, but that never came to be.)

I wanted to record a 6-piece band and having plenty of these headphones, I dished out a set to each band member for monitoring purposes. However, when the monitor levels were turned up beyond a certain point, the guitarist's amp and the bassist's amp gave out a high pitched whistle. Furthermore, when playing back the recording of those two channels, the entire monitoring mix could be heard quite prominently. But when I swapped the headphones for sets of my somewhat superior Audio Technicas the problems went away.

The only conclusion I can draw is that the Behringer HPM1000s give out a lot of electromagnetic interference (EMI) which is picked up by the unbalanced guitar leads. Vocal channels didn't suffer this problem due to the mic cables being balanced. This EMI consists of everything fed to the headphones including the signal being recorded, which when the level is increased causes a feedback loop via the monitor bus causing the whistle in a similar vein to acoustic feedback. Bearing in mind that the bass guitarist's input to the recording desk was via a DI, i.e. no microphone, this reinforces my opinion.

Has anybody else experienced a similar problem?
