Best headphones for Video Editing.
I also edit on a Mac mini and I use a pair of Audio-Technica ATH-M40x headphones. For critical listening you need a good pair of over-the-ear studio reference monitor phones for accuracy, comfort and passive isolation. What you don't need is active noise cancellation specially in consumer grade head

Whats better for music productions Audio-Technica ath-m50x or sony mdr 7506
I'd actually highly recommend the ATH-M40x headphones. They have a much more even and flat response and are much better for music production. The ATH-M50x's are more for tracking and listening to music as a consumer. I find the Sony MDR-7506's to be harsh and lack low end. The Sony MDR-7506's are te

An almost perfect Y1 clear case.
These are the Audio-Technica ATH-M40x. These have been my favorite headphones for years due to their balanced sound profile and comfortable fit. However, I have tweaked the EQ on the Y1 slightly toward a “classical” profile to fit my needs.

Budget Mixing Headphones
Better kung ma-try mo in person sa headphone store like Egghead (Rob Galle or Shang). Aside from the sound, consider mo rin yung comfort. Check out AudioTechnica ATH-M40x (test fit mo kung okay sa tenga mo). Other options: Sony MDR7506 AKG K240 Superlux HD681 (cheaper)
