A studio classic

Usually the sound from these headphones is described as being terrible. But that's if you compare it to HiFi headphones but why can these headphones be found in every studio in the world if they are so bad? It's because they are not bad. They are build for a specific purpose and that purpose is not to give you crisp highs and booming bass. These are meant for monitoring usually for vocals. They are good in the mid range and because of that they won't tire your ears and you can wear these for hours. They are very comfortable and they bleed very little audio which is of course important when you're recording vocals. My only gripe is why aren't these available in white anymore?? Every music video from the 80's that was shot in a studio features these headphones in white, so as soon as mine arrived I took them apart and sprayed them white :)
