Studio headphones

Open back type over ear headphones

Review: As a leading musical instrument manufacturer, Yamaha combines rich experience with a strong focus on musical quality. Now Yamaha has used its expertise to create superior monitor headphones. Paying particular attention to the configuration of the drive unit and housing, as well as the earpad assembly, Yamaha designed the HPH-200 to deliver highly detailed instrumental music with precisely faithful sound reproduction.

The HPH-200 is an open air type with a metallic grill for the housing, providing optimum monitor performance with an appropriate amount of sound dispersion so that listening fatigue will not be a problem even after long hours of use. In addition, because they are non airtight so surrounding sounds are audible, these headphones are ideal for use when playing with another instrument or even in group sessions.

The large 40mm (1-5/8") driver uses a powerful magnet. It delivers wide dynamic range and deep bass, so both vocals and musical instruments are reproduced with an energetic and lively sound.

The soft velour like earpad provides a pleasant feeling, extremely comfortable fit. Additionally, because the earpad affects sound quality, its material and shape have been carefully chosen to match the headphone unit, ensuring both maximum comfort and optimum sound quality.

The adjustable earpieces not only perfectly match the shape of your head, they swivel to a flat position for easy storage and carrying. The size of the headband can also be adjusted, ensuring a comfortable fit.

The cord is a convenient length for plugging into portable music players and electronic instruments. It doesn't hold its shape, so won't get tangled and uncoils smoothly. Both the plug and accessory plug are gold plated for maximum sound quality.

High quality, over ear headphones designed for the recording environment.

Review: Every element of these high quality headphones have been designed to suit the modern recording environment. They provide faithful, accurate reproduction of high bit, all digital sound, with less noise. Specifically, the speaker drivers utilize a CCAW (copper clad aluminium wire) voice coil. This combination of aluminium wiring coated with copper features exceptionally good conductivity and light weight, reproducing high-resolution sound with maximum clarity over the full frequency range.

The HPH-MT120 is a model of simplicity and elegance, offering clean design where nothing is wasted and exceptional functionality where all elements combine to provide faithful, high quality monitoring of demanding digital sound sources. Its housing has a rounded rectangular shape that is large enough to completely cover your ears, yet are easy to handle and feel just right. The appearance complements the sturdy construction and modern design - a perfect match for today's recording environment.

The sturdy three dimensional arms pivot, allowing you to adjust the slope depending on the angle of rotation. Along with the careful adjustment we've made to the arms' lateral pressure, this lets the ear pads securely yet comfortably fit along the shape of your head. The housings can also be rotated freely, allowing you to invert one cup and monitor in just one ear if desired.

On the HPH-MT220, the outer earpad coverings are made of synthetic protein leatherette, a material that retains moisture and has skin like smoothness, while the special, low repulsion cushions fit your ears perfectly for high sound insulation. Altogether, with the ingeniously designed shape and slant, these elements combine to provide the most comfortable fit and highest quality sound.

Over ear headphones with adjustable, reinforced headband and ample padding

Review: The PRO 300 headphones combine the finest materials with Yamaha's legendary tuning know how to deliver a superb listening experience. They incorporate a newly developed Yamaha proprietary driver design with neodymium magnets that provide maximum efficiency when used with mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets and other portable music players. The ear cushions offer excellent acoustic properties by way of meticulous attention to material selection and shape design. From deep, tight bass to clear, precise mids and highs, the PRO 300 reproduces music authentically, with a lifelike soundstage.

Built to handle the rigors of everyday use without wearing you down, the PRO 300 features an adjustable, reinforced headband with ample padding textured for a pleasant feel. The band is shaped to apply just the right amount of pressure - snug enough to provide some noise isolation, yet light enough for long listening sessions. Its ear cushions are extraordinarily soft and smooth, with a feel so natural you'll never want to take it off.

The PRO Series headphones get your heart racing before you even plug them in. Gorgeous geometry and ultra clean design curves are matched with premium colour and finish materials, then emblazoned boldly with Yamaha's iconic tuning fork logo.

Not all headphone cables are created equal. The PRO 300 uses a tangle resistant flat cable made from a material that is both durable and designed to reduce "touch noise" transfer effects. An ideal length for mobile use (4 ft), it attaches directly to a single earcup, keeping it out of your way. The flat construction separates the internal cores to minimize interference and terminates to a low-profile right-angle connector. A gold-plated 1/4" adapter is included in the box for connecting to professional grade audio equipment.

The PRO 300 cable includes an in-line remote/microphone optimized for use with Apple iPod, iPhone and iPad devices. The + and - buttons control volume for both music and phone calls, while the centre button allows you to play/pause music, skip to the next song, skip to the previous song, or answer/end phone calls. The controller buttons provide a tactile click response, enabling intuitive operation without need for visual reference. For non Apple devices, control behaviour varies due to differences in applications and pin configurations.

The PRO 300 offers a hinged headband that allows it to fold into a compact size for travelling. It also comes with a Yamaha soft carrying case for added protection.

Limited edition of the DT 770 Pro with 32 Ohms due to the 88th anniversary of Beyerdynamic

Review: Beyerdynamic celebrates its 88th anniversary with a refined edition of the DT 770 PRO headphoneS, the professional audio industry standard for more than 20 years. Its newly developed 32 Ohms drivers are based on Beyerdynamic's world-renowned 80 Ohms and 250 Ohms drivers.

While the new DT 770 PRO 32 Ohms limited anniversary edition satisfies even the highest studio requirements, it is also compatible with smartphones, MP3 players, tablets, laptops and PC soundcards.

Studio headphones with in-line mic & controller

Review: The TMA-1 Studio headphones are AIAIAI's latest professional cans especially designed for the studio. The Copenhagen-based design collective had lengthy sessions in mind when they consulted with musicians, producers and engineers. They were looking to create a more referenced sound and enhanced comfort with the response and durability of the TMA-1, with an adjusted EQ curve to adapt the original's for use in the studio. They chose an over-the-ear design that increases comfort, especially appreciated when used for long periods of time.

The newly introduced TMA-1 Studio's feature several differences which help them excel in the world of production.

The Studios shun portability for comfort, appearing significantly bulkier than the vanilla TMA-1's. Featuring circumaural ears pads that fit around the ear and extra headband padding, the Studio's are comfortable even when worn for long periods of time - perfect for that all day studio session.

Under the hood AIAIAI have also tweaked the drivers themselves, giving the Studios a flatter, producer-friendly frequency response - and making them more delicately balanced then the slightly bass heavy TMA-1's.

The result is one of the clearest, most comfortable listening experiences available, with the protein based circumaural cups preserving rich highs, mids and lows whilst blocking all unwanted noise. Although not the most detailed cans at their price range, the overall package of sound, style and build quality make the Studio's hard to beat.

Studio reference headphones

Review: The Gemini HSR-1000 Professional Monitoring Headphones combine exceptionally accurate sound reproduction with total comfort, offering outstanding performance whether you're mixing in a studio or listening casually in any environment. Boasting top-tier components that produce pristine, full-range audio, the HSR-1000s represent a new level of sound quality from Gemini headphones.

Large 53mm neodymium drivers deliver high output with low distortion for powerful, articulate sound, even at elevated volumes. High-quality PET diaphragms also ensure the bass sounds deep and rich, the mids sound lush and vibrant, and the highs sound clear and brilliant.

For extraordinary isolation, these headphones employ a closed-back design, which incorporates double noise rejection technology, so you hear true, immaculate sound, no matter where you're listening. This means ambient noise is blocked, so studio engineers and front-of-house technicians can hear a supremely accurate mix without coloration from unwanted sound. Impeccable isolation also means microphones won't pick up bleed-through from musicians' phones during recording sessions. And of course, DJs can preview and beat match perfectly, even in loud club settings.

The Gemini HSR-1000 headphones feature a leather headband and soft earcups to ensure total comfort, especially during periods of extended listening. Adjustable 15-degree swing ear brackets also accommodate different head sizes, so you're guaranteed a snug, secure fit. Ideal for engineers, audiophiles, DJs and general music lovers, the HSR-1000s provide rich, brilliant audio and unrivaled comfort for a superior listening experience.

The DT 100 from Beyerdynamic offers a high degree of comfort and can be worn for hours without listener fatigue. The soft ear cushions effectively seal out ambient noise yet apply minimal pressure against the ear.

Closed, diffuse-field studio headphone

Review: The Beyerdynamic DT 770 Headphones 80 Ohm are closed back dynamic headphones that use the same comfortable, sound isolating design as the 250 Ohm studio version, but with a lower resistance for general purpose and mobile applications. Because of the lower resistance, the DT 770 Pro 80 Ohm headphones are louder and work on low power devices such as smart phones, MP3 player, laptops and bus powered interfaces. Therefore, if you are working in a loud environment or using a battery operated device, the Beyerdynamic DT 770Pro 80 Ohm headphones make the perfect choice of headphone.

When out and about, you really need to block as much ambient noise out as possible and a lot of headphones do this by clamping the ear-pads as tightly to your ears as possible and using materials that absorb a lot of sound. This produces two unwanted issues; discomfort, after prolonged use; and a loss of audio quality as sound being generated by the driver is absorbed by the cup. The DT 700 Pro series avoids this by using a clever bass reflex system and a large circumaural cup design with velour pads. Of course the real technology is in the transducer itself, which produces a nominal frequency response of 5Hz to 35kHz and a nominal SPL of 96dB, an exceptional performance.

Closed dynamic headphones

Review: The DT 770 Pro is a closed dynamic headphone and has been designed for critical music and sound monitoring. The single sided cable makes the handling of the headphone easy. The cushion system allows the DT 770 Pro to be used comfortably for long periods of time.

The circumaural design with velour cushions and adjustable headband makes the DT 770 headphones really comfortable, even over prolonged periods. The DT 770 250Ohm version is designed for the studio, delivering a higher impedance and a slightly more accurate response than the 80Ohm versions. The higher impedance also means you can safely use multiple headsets from the same source.

The 2 most common complaints when mixing using closed back headphones are that they are uncomfortable and don't produce enough bass, leaving mixes overly compensated (see the FAQ further down for the reasons why). The answer to first problem is to buy open back headphones, but they are no good for recording purposes and may not solve the second issue of bass response. Fortunately, the DT 770 Pro tackle both these problems, delivering an impressive nominal frequency response of 5Hz-35kHz using their innovative bass reflex system with a very large cup and velour cushions that let air through but not sound, thus reducing pressure.
