Sony MDR-7506 Professional Wired On Ear Headphones (Best Compatible with Professional Cinema Line Camera) - Black

I love these headphones and this has become my daily driver. I use it for casual listening, movies and monitoring.Comfort: Very comfortable headphones. This is lightweight headphones and doesn't have tight clamping force. Works fine with most head sizes. The padding is light though not uncomfortable. I can wear it for hours comfortably. I may upgrade for a thicker pads when this one wears out.Build: Very well built. The headphones feels sturdy in hand and can survive my clumsy handling. It folds well and I can carry it in my backpack easily. The coiled cables is made of quality material but undetachable and insanely long. The long cables can be wrapped over itself quickly to shorten it - check youtube videos. Spares of most parts are available online - so you don't need to throw it away when something breaks.Sound: This is fairly neutral sounding phones with somewhat flat sound signature . Really crisp mids and lows with tight bass. The bass is not overpowering or physical yet is punchy - maybe passable for bassheads. It has more bass than my AKG K371 but not as much as Brainwavz HM55. Its slight extension towards lows and highs adds some coloration but I kind of enjoy it. So instruments may stand-up than vocals a bit. You can EQ it for really flat response if you want - google for calibrated eq settings. The listening experience is on par with K371 except for the soundstage. Sound stage is not very wide but enough for proper instrument separation. My laptop and mobile can drive this pretty loud, I listen at around 50% volume.Overall this is a good no-nonsense cans well worth its ~7k price tag. This model has been around for 36 years for its good engineering and value for money.

Sound Quality is Perfect.Material is best.Wire length is goodCompatible.Perfectly perfect Honestly 👍

Why is the Sony MDR-7506 so popular?How old is the Sony MDR-7506?What headphones are better than Sony MDR-7506?and so many questions but her is my answer, its about your own personal choice when it comes to listening, but based on my experience(bought in 2020, almost 4 year now) and it has been the best choise so far, this headphone introduced in 1991 almost 35 year a go, and its been industry slandered, Why because it's cheap compare to other head phone and last longing, for large studio they don't spend too much for daily used headphone for recoding and monitoring tracks.over all it good option for those who cant afford stereo monitor or dont have acoustically treated space for audio editing & mixing

There is a reason why these headphones are revered by audio professionals all over the world, and you could use several adjectives to describe these.For sound quality, these are most balanced, insightful, and transparent headphones you can lay your hands on.The soundstage these cans present are so open, with every instrument having their intended place, and vocals tightly focussed in the center. Music never sounded better- these are monitoring headphones, and as the name goes you get an idea how the artists wanted to present their music to you. The musical instruments seem to come alive!These are highly sensitive headphones, at 106 db, you rarely have to push away up your volume knob.Some reviews have mentioned that the bass is light- let me say that the bass is tight and tuneful, just enough for you to enjoy your music. If you need more bass, crank up your EQ, or look for other headphones. These are not for 'bassholics". It's been just a few days since I've been using these cans, and I hope they will burn in and open up after so some weeks of use.For under INK 7k, I think the value these headphones present are unbeatable. There are far more other expensive headphones on the market, but I now wonder how those can beat these cans. These headphones have already raised the bar so high!And, don't expect these cans to knock you off your feet, the moment you start using them-you need them to, and they will, to grow on you. The detail they dig out in a recording opens up a whole new world to enjoy music.They take on movies pretty well too- you will clearly hear every sound in a scene, as clearly as a clock ticking against a revving car engine.My only little gripe that I have is that these cans are tad uncomfortable for my head- perhaps it's only me.If you are looking for headphones that are neutral, and present music as the clear blue skies, look no further. And with this price, no wonder this has stood its ground for nearly three decades.
