Thread: Headphones vs. Studio Monitors

yup

But then there is this beast that I'd love to have for those times are need to be quite:

I'm gonna have to have one of those someday.

I had that inhouse and tried it a few times.
Not bad, but still...it needs getting used to. Not the same as working with speakers.
Like... using a non familiar speaker brand, which is pretty close to what it actually is..lol...

There are so many ways you can tweak the signal that one gets easily confused and that is not what you want when mixing. Total recall would be necessary to jump accurately to your personal settings. Audio quality is very good, though.

If you know your HPs you can get decend results, but they need to be fine-tuned on monitors, anyhow.

That thing is Super Decent... i just don't think i could justify the price when i have so many other pieces of gear i could spend that cash on... For Example Monitors

Please can anyone suggest me best quality headphones.

Angela, ...
for what application?
In a spaceship you need other HPs than at home listening to HiEnd stereo systems.
And different ones for checking a master or a mix, ... to record a violinist or a drummer, .. for listening to a MP3 player or working in a call center....
;-)
Please... more input...

$2k is a bit steep. You could get some great monitors for that. It does exemplify the limitations of each and is in many ways the best of both worlds.

But, I'm thinking if you were living in an appartment , it could definitely shed new light on late night fear of conflicts. I'd like one in my studio even if it didn't work lol. Looks really cool.
