What's something you only realized was a 'poor person fear' after you watched a rich person have absolutely zero reaction to it?

I once wanted to buy some (for me) high end very expensive headphones. I had chosen them online, the Audeze LCD-X, and I checked for resellers local to me, only to find that there was one right by my employer in the centre of a very exclusive part of town. So I hit up their website and it was "book

What are the best earphones you recommend?

No budget: Audeze LCD-X - Amazing soundstage/high fidelity. They’re open-back, so the sound will spill outside the headphones. And you’d want a good headphone amp to drive them. Normal budget: FiiO FT-1 - I’m still kind of amazed how good these sound for the price point. They’re what I use for every

What is your favourite headphones to mix and master with?

Definitely Audeze LCDX best headphones i ever heard. They have newer models like MM-520, LCD-MX4, MM-100 (cheaper) which might be even better but I have never felt a need for new headphones ever since I got the LCD-X 10 years ago

What are the best earphones you recommend?

I've purged a disgusting amount of headphones recently, and kept only my winners. Keep in mind that sound preference is always subjective. Audeze LCD-X: Reference, accurate open back planar mags. Used for mastering and critical listening. Soundstage galore. As another user mentioned, you'd want a go

Genelec smallest monitor, low end enough?

I bought the 8010a. I start my mixes with them. Then I switch over to my audeze lcdx to assess sub and lows. They definitely dont show that range. Where they excel is low volumes in poorly treated rooms. 8030 with a poorly treated room is still going to need good headphones to double check.

I can finally decisively say I prefer headphones over speakers.

I agree with the fact that you aren’t an audiophile (yet) You can’t say that you don’t love sports cars when only you’ve only driven a 1997 Mazda Miata. I went deep down the rabbit hole of headphones (Audeze, ZMF, Beyerdynamic, etc.) to the point where I had an entire rack of components and let me t

Production Headphone advice

Best headphones are the ones with a flat response. A-lot of pros use Audeze lcdx( but those are 1200 bucks) You can buy “sound id” by sonarworks and select their m 50x headphones flat emulation and use those. Or buy the slate vsx platinum edition headset and use their studio emulations to get the be

Primeiro planar magnético

Fica bom sim, se não ficar tem como equalizar, planar não distorce tão rápido sob eq como um DD faria. Mas aí eu partiria pra reviews. Os Audeze lcd2c e lcdx tem uma assinatura que me agrada, com ênfase nos mids, já o lcd5 trás de volta os agudos. Hifiman costuma puxar pros médio agudos e agudos.. E

DT1990 PRO vs AYRA Stealth vs HD600 vs AUDEZE LCD-2

Then why ask at all? I've been mixing for over 20 years and have tried nearly every headphone imaginable. Believe me or not. My suggestion to you is to look at the headphones the top mixers are using. Manny Marroquin doesn't have a product with Audeze for no reason. Many mastering engineers use LCDX
