Sony MDR7506 Folding Professional Closed Ear Headphones

Sony MDR7506 Folding Professional Closed Ear Headphones SKU: MDR7506-SONY

Rated 5 out of 5 by from PRISTINE SOUND! My sound engineer brother recommended these to me, stating he's used them for years and simply replaces the ear muffs! I am able to discern instruments in years-old recordings with fresh clarity. I love them and will suggest them to others. Thanks!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sounds like I'm 20 again One of the few pleasurable things from the Vietnam War was the availability of good quality sound systems at affordable prices. Expensive blue tooth and noise cancelling have their place but the sound reproduction lacks in my opinion. This MDR 7506 sounds fine.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from GREAT CANS This is the 2nd set of these I've had (the other pair evolved legs). Good, solid cans. They're accurate, lightweight, and comfy as hell!! I've used and seen them used for years by many professional touring audio engineers. And...no you can't borrow them; go get your own, you won't regret it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Very Nice Headphone It is very comfortable to wear, even after watching a movie for 2 1/2 hours, my ears does not feel uncomfortable. It is a perfect size for me. The sound quality is good, however, I don't know if it is my connector, but when I test it by turning the volume off, I could hear some buzzing sound. Or went the volume gets too high, there are cracking sound. It is more likely my system and not the Sony's headphone that's the cause. But I don't know much about sound equipment and setup. So I can't give a great review since I am lacking in knowledge regarding sound equipment so my opinion would be amateurish at best. However, it is hard to beat the price for a good headphone like this.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Best headphones for the money Ive been using these to practice guitar and they sound amazing.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Legendary sound, but only a 90 day warranty Brilliant sound. Despite its old design, the clarity and detail of these headphones never ceases to amaze me. The materials and workmanship are very good, they are lightweight and very comfortable, with soft but durable ear pads. They fold and are easily carried. About the only drawback is the long and slightly unwieldy coiled cord, which is not replaceable. The deal breaker is the ridiculously short 90 day warranty from Sony. After about 7 months of careful use at moderate volumes, the left earpiece has a pronounced and annoying rattle and distortion from some low frequency music, so looking for a replacement and I cannot recommend them. In comparison, at least two major headphone makers feature a 2 year warranty, so caveat emptor!
