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

¿Qué auris me recomiendan para usar más de 8 horas?

Y esto con las finanzas que tiene que ver? Tenía unos ATH-M40x de Audio Technica que me compré hace varios años. Muy lindos pero después de unos años se les rompen las visagras, les hice un arreglo con impresora 3D una vez, pero paso denuevo peor, y ahora los jubilé pese a que hace ni tanto también

Rekomendasi headphone musik range 1-1,5 juta (Untuk pemakaian pribadi)

Banyak yang bilang dengan harga segitu yg paling bagus itu ATX MX40 Kalo dari Khastadio OS2 ke M40X gak bisa dibilang upgrade dan juga bakal kerasa less bass karena emang suaranya OS2 seingetku itu profile suaranya aga warm.

Which headphones should I buy?

I've had a good experience with Audio Technica ATH-M40x from 10 years ago. They have a fairly flat response and full range. I'm not sure if anything has changed in current models. They are around $100.

When buying a premium headphone, what matters most to you.

Sound Comfort Price. I have Sennheiser HD650, Audio Technica ATH-M40X and a cheap wireless Soundcore Q20i that, with its EQ, sounds acceptably. It is also noise cancelling. It can be also used wired, but sound is worse.

Hopping on amp sims, need help.

Sony MDR-7506s if you can find them on sale, otherwise Audio Technica ATH-M40x are solid for that price range. Both are pretty standard for home recording and won't make your amp sims sound like garbage. Check Guitar Center used section too, sometimes you can snag decent cans for cheap

Whats the move here?

Or, you can use flat frequency response headphones (Audio Technica ATH M40x is a great cheap option) and put a studio speaker simulator on the master channel. Just be sure to bypass it before exporting.
