I can’t speak to the difference in model numbers. I have had my 7506’s for several years, replaced my ear pads this year, and I find them to be comfortable. I have Tonebooster’s Morphit for iOS and desktop and use it to help the 7506’s sound flatter and definitely notice the difference when not using the plug-in.
I have Sony mdr7506.
They are very good but I have 2 big concerns:
The high tone are really crispy and somehow metallic;
The cable (non replaceable) is way too long.
I ended up using ath-m50x
@Paa89 I've been using MDR-7506s for as long as I can remember, since at least 20 years ago when they were recommended to me by a recording engineer. I've tried other headphones but always came back to the Sony's. Here is a detailed review that you may find interesting.
They are very comfortable, even over long sessions and even though I wear glasses. The coiled cable can get tangled if you're not careful and the ear pads will wear out over time. Instead of buying Sony ear pads, I highly recommend these replacements. Super comfortable.
Sorry, I don't know about the 7506/1 vs. 7506.
What pad did you get if I may ask ?
I have Morphit and just had a look at the correction curve.
I noticed that it has a boost at 10K, does this mean that it lacks in that range?
Interesting points, I think point number 2 is the reason why I see a correction (boost ) around 10k in Toneboosters Morphit
Nice one, thanks for the links. Does it lack in the high frequencies?
A twist tie takes care of the unmanageable cable length. Very comfortable and seems reasonably accurate.
@Schmotown 👍 Thanks for the link for the replacement pads.. mine are in horrendous shape..
@Paa89 The highs sound clean to me, not at all harsh. (Unless after all these years my hearing is rolling off at 8kHz.)
@royor Those pads are REALLY good. Worth the money IMO if you're a 7506 person.
After my ATH-M50x's 'broke' I got a pair of MDR-7506's and I'm very happy with them and often forget I'm even wearing them which I could not say about the ATH-M50x's. The one question I ask myself is, why didn't I get them earlier?
They do have a very long non-detachable cable and the cables that go to the head cups could be more protected but they need quite a bit of force be pulled off so I don't worry about them too much...
They are rated at 60ohms but they are very easy to drive with just about anything (even the puny Lightning->3,5mm jack).
As for the sound, I like it!
To my ears it's not 'harsh' or 'unpleasant' as some say, stuff just sounds like I expect it to sound.
If you can, try before buy!
Cheers!
I always found the 7506's comfortable, but count me in with those who find the highs and upper mids a little harsh at medium to high volumes. Also the low end is rather restrained as well, I used to always overmix the bass as a result.
Great cans for comfort and for tracking, jamming, just listening to music. But I'd spend a good deal of time referencing them with other playback systems if you want to use them for mixing.
Oh
Okay guys, had to drive 2 hours to go get them. Paid a guy on eBay (brand new in box) and drove to his house.Now time to test. Thanks for all the feedback. Will update if i like them or not.
Yep that’s them... the seller probably got Beyer 770s 😉😂

They take some time to 'burn-in/get used to', I love mine a LOT!
I have MDR-V6s, which I believe are basically the same. Had them for 5 years, replaced pads twice in that time I think, I use them for everything but never had sore ears from them. Yes, they're quite bright, but I like that - works for me as I play wind instruments so like to hear the upper harmonics. Also they're great for studio sessions on acoustic instruments if you like to record with one earphone off/slightly off. (Maybe that's a wind player thing).
+1
It took me a minute to get used to mine but now I wouldn’t use anything else
The 770s look big and heavy for my head 🤣 .> @Samu said:
So far so good.
The sound quality is waay better than my Roland RH5.
Mid (snares) can be a bit lound, but i think this depends on how the track was mixed.
Did a test on YouTube and most tracks were clear no issues at all.
Like most people, I think the cable is long, so i just twisted the cable around it self.
Depending on how brave i feel, I might get my soldering iron out and make them shorter. I also like the fact that they include a diagram of the wiring, this makes it easy for cable repairs.
I’m just a bit worried about the cables hanging on the side of the Caps, I might just tape them to the adjusters, since i will be the only person to use the headphones.
Very comfortable I’d say.
Oh and using them in Cubasis 3, tested a couple of my projects and had to put Morphit on the master, which makes a big difference. Without Morphit, my mixes are a bit harsh on mid-highs.
Guess it’s time to start mixing these tracks from scratch.
Thanks very much guys.💪🏾💪🏾
Oh and the Bass (low end) i also think it depends on how the track was mixed.
I can hear clear bass on most of the tracks on YouTube.
@Paa89 Glad you're liking them so far. They'll only sound better as you get used to them.
@Paa89 I found the 770s too heavy as well. Returned them and kept the 7506.
I’m pretty happy with mine. The sound might be slightly colored, but they are pretty reasonable, built well, obviously the part diagram is excellent that they provide that, and a great price.
I would probably advise you not to bother soldering the cables. My brother is pretty good at soldering and we used to repair headphones when the jacks went bad. There is all this extra shielding in them you need to burn off. Also, every time a headphone jack was repaired it frequently would break a couple months later. It’s probably not worth the trouble to save cable length.
I had the MDR-V6 which I believe, as mentioned above, are practically the same. The ear pads definitely wore down quickly but for me the issue was with sibilance as the highs are so sharp.
Decent headphones if you're not so sensitive to the highs.
After using those and trying the ATH-m50x (which I found muddy in the mids) I switched to Beyer Dynamics 770 & 990, which I love, and are the best sounding and most comfortable headphones I've had. Not heavy at all. No fatigue with long listening sessions or getting hot. The pads are very soft and comfy and they sound great.
The Sonys are decent though and are a good purchase. Enjoy!
Have 7506
Sometimes I feel heavy after 30 minutes
But very good flat frequency with 63 ohms and it’s industry standard monitoring headphone.
I’m mostly using for iPad and crisp and clear in low middle and high frequencies
The profile in morphit is definitely a help when using the 7506 to mix, even as you get used to the natural sound. But I’ve had mine for 16 years now and they get used a lot. About 5 years ago I changed the ear pads to a set of beyer ear pads, which are velvety, and they are even more comfortable. The sound did change just slightly but I’m used to it.
They are definitely great utility headphones that sound very good, so anyone who chooses them would likely not be disappointed.
7506 are very comfy and light. I used them for a long time tracking live instruments but for iOS electronic production they're too harsh in the high end for me.
@Paa89 The 7506/1 is just the European/UK version.
