I have had these headphones for almost 10 years. In these 10 years, they have been THE BEST headphones I have used for mixing. I have used a bunch of headphones and studio monitors in that time, and nothing has beat them out, not even the infamous Sony 7506 (given, cheaper, but more prevalent headphones in studios) Things to note with these headphones; they are not super low end present. If you are getting these to listen to consumer music, you may not like them because they are not "boomy" or "full". These headphones are for users who are looking for definition and clarity for making a solid mix. The other note is a MINOR complaint; the part of the headset that rests on the top of your head/hair has worn out for me. The muffs also wore out, but I replaced them. If there is a way to replace the foam under the band, please let me know because I would love to have them looking brand new again. I broke the cable that came with the headphones by accidentally vacuuming it about 2 years in (stupid, I know), but the detachable cable saved me some money. Also nice if you want to swap out different size cables. I would highly recommend these to anyone looking to invest in headphones for studio mixing.

Fantastic for the studio monitors.

Under $5, how could you go wrong? Thank You!

The Lowepro Photo Active 300 AW Backpack (Blue/Black) is a stylish, attractive, and durable backpack. All compartments are well-thought-out, and the backpack is well-made. One drawback is that the insert for camera gear simply fits into the backpack, creating gaps between the backpack walls and the insert. If something small is placed in the top compartment, it can fall through the gap and down to the bottom. However, I am confident that this is a minor issue for such a stylish backpack.

I really wanted to keep this backpack, but it is too narrow for a Sony A7 and a Tamron 150-500mm lens. As a wildlife photographer, I really wanted to keep my long lens ready to go in my bag. Fortunately, the Photo Active BP 300 is a tiny bit wider and works for my use. This backpack is more suited for hiking and has more storage for hiking gear than the Photo Active BP 300. On the flip side, it's at least 1 narrower and has significantly less built-in storage for camera gear.

I have this as the sound processor for my kitchen system of JBL subwoofer and 2 JBL active monitors. I use it regularly and have had zero issues with its operation since putting it in service April 2017, now September 2022. This is not a critical listening area but it gets a lot of use. I detect no added noise. All controls work like new. I also have an older 215s and it too works just fine after years of service.

I replaced my active monitors with the ELAC speakers and a Yamaha integrated amplifier. Since the ELAC has coaxial arrangement of tweeter + midrange, I felt it would work fine for near field listening. I'm very happy with the result. With nothing playing, the combination of amp with passive speakers has no background hiss. My old monitors had audible hiss and non-defeatable auto-shutoff unless the playback was kept sufficiently loud. I'm using an RME ADI-2 DAC feeding the Yamaha amp. I chose ELAC's Satin White with Oak Sides to escape the all-black look of my old monitors.
