Sony MDR-V600 Studio Monitor Stereo Headphones
Covering a wide response range from low bass to very high frequencies, Sony's Studio Monitor MDR-V600 headphones are well suited for virtually any audio application including use with today's digital sources. Dynamic, closed-type construction keeps out ambient noise while creating a comfortable, sealed resonance chamber to maximize sonic purity. Studio Monitor series headphones incorporates state-of-the art engineering design to produce excellent sound quality and wearing comfort to accommodate high end consumer or professional applications. Circum-aural earcup design in the natural shape of the human ear positions the driver unit at a correct distance from the ear canal and creates a sealed resonance chamber over the earlobe itself, reducing pressure on the ear for a more comfortable fit, especially during extended listening sessions. 40mm driver unit is positioned within the earcup at an angle, which directly corresponds to the angle of the opening of the ear canal for the most natural listening experience possible. Neodymium magnet is small, yet five times more powerful than a ferrite magnet of comparable size, to provide a better headphone without increasing the overall size and weight of the driver unit. Copper-clad aluminum wire (CCAW) voice coil combines the strength and conductivity of a copper core with a lightweight outer coating of aluminum to expand and contract as electrical impulses pass through it, creating the physical movement of the diaphragm. MDR-V600 features reversible earcups for single-side monitoring to let vocalists and musicians hear external surrounding sounds naturally while simultaneously listening through one side of the headphones. Cushioned headband adds to wearing comfort and a better overall fit. Oxygen-free copper (OFC) connecting cord is highly conductive for maximum signal transmission with very low distortion. Gold-plated stereo Unimatch plug adaptor with built-in self-cleaning feature permits use with standard 1/4" jacks on hi

Featured User Review for SONY MDR-V600 Studio Monitor

I have used at least a dozen makes and models of headphones. As I moved closer to pro audio work, where I am now, I purchased increasingly better (and more expensive) sets. When I first put on the Sony MDR-V600 I heard mid and high-range subtleties that had never come through before. The lows are equally impressive and smooth and powerful. They truly put you IN the scene. Compared to most headphones, they require very little power to produce their spectacular sound at excellent volumes. I've used them in my audio studio, as computer headphones, TV headphones, dictation recorder headphones, and I'm convinced that these babies are extremely power efficient, even when there's nothing but a couple of AAA cells doing the work. They are also extremely comfortable, and truly shaped to cover the human ear. After I used my first one, I immediately bought four more. Enough said.
