Sony 1000 Headphone Refurbished

Needed a headphone amp for home studio. This is the only one on the market that handles every impedance from 8 to 1000 ohms-- critical if one is mixing headphone types. Most phones today are 50 to 60 ohm... too low for other amps. Plenty of output channels too.

Ever since I received it from B&H I've put aside my rather more pricey headphone and have been using the SMH-1000 BECAUSE IT IS THAT MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE. I spend quite a few hours daily in my home studio. The lightness, comfort of earpads, and cables make for an efficient tool. And I bought it on one of the great daily deals from B&H.

It performed very well and I'm glad that i bought it for my Sony HD-1000.

By far the xm3 is the best headphone I had. It reproduces truly beautiful sounds. It's a must have from Sony!

initially used this headphone in a Sony Store, was blown away by the quality and have not found anything better so bought myself one.

I needed a new amp for vintage KLH Six speakers I refurbished and my new Blu Ray player. B&H salesman explained exactly why this particular amp would meet my needs. I love how my speakers sound with this Sony 590 and with power to spare. Set up was a snap - the Sony recognized my Blu Ray; i didn't even have to go into menu. B&H Staff and service are the greatest. Highly recommend this amp.

Purchased refurbished, looks brand new.

I guess this will come to no shock to anyone but Sony has done it again. I can't tell you how blowed away I am over all that they have changed to make this headphone better than anything on the market. Making these headphone lighter and adding that new chipset that made the N/C and sound better was the end to all debates about who was truly the best in the world for N/c headphones. The previous one caused me a lot of Migraines and dizziness because of it's clamping and overall weight but these are unlike anything I could have hope for. Thank you so much Sony for making the most complete and best N/C headphone in the world. The bass is the thumping without interfering with the highs and mids. The soundstage is the best I've heard for closed back headphones. I have been listening all sorts of headphones and earphones and these headphones have created the most detailed of all of them. I also love the call quality this time around vs the previous model. Finally I can talk on the phone without the other person complaining about the clarity. They even made Google assistant almost instant.

I had debated whether to go for the refurbished instead of new but decided it was worth it to save almost $300. The fact it was Nikon Refurbished and therefore has a Nikon Warranty means the extra warranty protection from my credit card should also apply. Well I got my camera and except for the fact that it wasn't in the pretty gold box, it looks jut like new - My first picture was shutter activation #1! I am very happy about my purchase and am having fun learning about all of the new features compared to my old D90. I took a group picture at my Rotary Club meeting using the Nikon SnapBridge and was even able to adjust the exposure to compensate for backlighting.

Sony MDR-7506 are the headphones I've been using for almost 20 years now, but the Senal SMH-1000 headphones come pretty close at a much better price. I also like the fact that the cord is removable, which makes things more compact when packing up for a location shoot.
