Sony Sound Monitoring Headphones Review

Ive used the standard Sony studio monitoring headphones for video production purposes, and while they sound fine, they just dont last very long...ear cup material comes apart or just comes off. The Sennheiser HD 280s are buil to stand up to the riggors of location production applications while providing great isolated sound for monitoring purposes. My only compliant/wish would be for them to switch to a non-coiled headphone cable...gets stretched out if someone decides to wrap it around the earpieces or if it gets shoved into a bag.

I love these headphones! very good for sound monitoring!

The Sony MDR-7506 Headphones are a classic option for monitoring sound recording and feel great on.

True sound, true monitoring headphones

The best headphones you can purchase in its price range. A better headphone for sound monitoring than the M50X.

Great pair of headphones for field video production monitoring. These are comparable to the Sony MDR-7506 Headphones. I have a hard time finding any difference in quality between the two and I've been using the Sony ones for quite a while now. One thing that really sets this apart is that it comes with two interchangeable cables. One cable is a 3ft straight cable(perfect for monitoring handheld camera work), but also included in the box is a 10ft coiled cable. My only complaint is that this pair of Senal headphones does not come with a carry pouch and the Sony one does.. but if you really want a pouch you can buy it separately here's the time number.. #SESMHPOUCH Overall, Great sound, foldable, quality build, cheaper then the sony model hands down.. Great value!

They have a clear sound and good build, exactly what I'm looking for in affordable monitoring headphones

Timeless Sony monitoring headphones bundled with a nice set of upgraded pads and a carrying case. There's not much I can say that hasn't already been said about these headphones. The deep earpads make these headphones VERY comfortable and don't change the sound signature all that much. The material is a luxurious feeling fake leather that make the headphones feel more expensive. They will probably last a lot longer too. However, they do not increase noise isolation as much as I'd hoped.

The sound really came alive using these cans. Sony knows headphones.

I don't quite know what to expect for headphones this inexpensive. I was pleasantly surprised at the build and sound quality. I use them for monitoring audio on my video shoots on my Canon 5D III.
