Stage Right Monoprice Multimedia Studio Reference Monitor Headphones - 53mm (Closed-Back) Ideal for Recording, Mixing, Mastering, and Monitoring

Proper reference cans, they have great low end extension when you change the pads to thick brainwavs angled ones, the retros are a tad more fun since they are boosted but these are properly flat that can take a LOT of power, o2 amp and I can crank it to 3 oclock with room to go and no distortion.

Great no nonsense budget closed backs from monoprice. Make no mistake, these sound flat, and a bit boxey but compared to Monoprice's 8323 and "Modern Retro" models the build quality is fantastic. Thick stock earpads, steel headband, brass cable jack. Only issue I've had was my first pair had a driver die after nearly a year of use. Despite that, for the price, these are criminally underrated.

I record and produce audio books and needed a good pair of headphones to match my budget. These are greaaaaaaat for producing audio. I love them. The other reviews are accurate.

I thought these headphones would be great to have, but unfortunatly the sound let me down.as if the drivers failed. it's playing the sound very low, no matter how high the volume is. It's unfair to me as a user to have only had this item 4 days and it's now useless.

There might be a slight peak in a treble band — I can't hear it but my friend can — but it's a good pair of headphones.In 2021, I have produced quite a bit of material using these that everyone with much more expensive headphones (AKGs and Senns specifically) have said that my mixes sound good on their hi-fi setups and they sound good in the car and on earbuds so if you know what you’re doing even a little bit these are definitely a good buy. Buy them if you’re hurting for money and want something good.

Sound fine, but I find them to be quite uncomfortable by being too tight on the ears/side of head after less than ten minutes of use. Plus, my ears get quite warm by being enclosed during use. I have no idea how others supposedly wear headphones for hours. Was hoping to use them for travel to help isolate the external sound but I doubt I'll be able to tolerate them on a long flight. I've used wired earbud designs on flights but they aren't the best for noise isolation so I thought I would try these.

This headphone is great. The soundstage is wide and the frequency response reminds me of the Audio Technica ATH M40X, though a bit brighter. Awesome headphone

Setting up a home studio. These are my performance and mixing monitors. Comfortable for hours. Perfect audio quality. Powerful, yet natural sound. I heartily recommend these; you won't be disappointed.
