    Audio-Technica ATH-M50

    Thanks Smeeeth!

    Yeah the ATH-M50's are universally lauded for their sound quality and value. You can usually find them on sale for $100 somewhere.

    I use a pair of Audio Technica ATH-ES7's. An older model but I love 'em.

    Technically if you're monitoring you should be looking at headphones designed for monitoring, which have more of a flat frequency response than even many high end music-listening headphones.

    This is a pretty good article on the topic: http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/dec03/articles/mixingheadphones.htm

    Thanks Jesse! Yes, flat is what I'm searching for...back in the days when I had a commercial recording studio I had a couple of pairs of Sony's (the 'go to' in those days), but so much has changed I figured I better look into what people are using now. It still amazes me how much ios can do compared with all the expensive equipment I used to have to have twenty years ago! I feel like Rumplestiltskin! :)

    Smoking deal on some monitoring headphones if you act quickly:

    Great thanks Jesse!

  • thesoundtestroomthesoundtestroom

    Like Jesse says the Audio T stuff is great...I use Bose for general everyday use and AKG 702's for work..the AKG headphones are expensive, but they are always on offer at Amazon...but they are amazing, totally flat responce...and they are designed to wear for hours with no fatigue..people often complain that they are not bassy enough..this is because thay are reference headphones, what you hear is exactly what was recorded, incredible staging..however you will need a headphone amp to drive them otherwise they are too quiet...but any top end headphone will work better with an amp..I use a little Fiio e17 which is also a DAC converter..so you can use it with your mac or pc too...read the reviews....

    I've had the audio technica ATH-M50s for a couple years now. I've used them pretty much every day since I got them and I'm still very happy with them.

    Headphone/earphone thoughts from fellow ios users on the auria forum:

    http://auriaapp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=11326

    I've been using Sony MDR-7506 for years and I recommend you NOT buy them if you're looking for truly flat response. They tend to add high end and if I relied solely on them for mixing, my mixes would lack in that area. With that being said, that could also be a good thing if your main instrument is guitar as we all like to make our solos shine in the mix ;)

  • RockingGarageRockingGarage

    I am using Shure SRH440, I think is the cheapest headphone in the market, everything was fine, of course it is not as detail as AKG headphone.. haha...
    beyerdynamic DT 231 also another budget headphone with good quality.

  • jg707jg707

    Thanks everyone for your suggestions! I definately have some shopping to do....
