Headphones for studio

Choose for the job in front of you: tracking, editing or checking a mix.

How to choose

Prioritise an analogue connection for direct monitoring, a usable cable and an enclosure suited to the room. Closed headphones help contain a cue mix; open models suit quieter editing sessions.

Studio is not a sound-quality score. These models are grouped by documented professional applications.
