Hello, I’m Sumedh K. AMA!

Thank you! I purchased Sony MDR M1 headphones sometime in October and I really love them. Something I can carry from the studio to travel and rely on the sound signature while producing on the go. Very comfortable as well!

Headphones recommendations to produce IDM pls

Sony MDR-M1 sound good while still being somewhat light and comfortable. I alternate between those and Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro, which sound great and very isolating. But I find the DT770 a little uncomfortable on sessions longer than 2 hrs.

My modded HD-660s: Capra Audio comfort strap; ZMF Sub Pads; Tripowin Jelly cable.

so glad you like them, what other headphones do you like ? I also have the Sony MDR M1 with better quality pads, with a Hart Audio cable. I love that one, very well made headphone and very good sound quality to them.
