Just SuperbOctober 7, 2008 I bought these to monitor audio on my videocamera. They seal out ambient sound very well -- in fact, I have trouble hearing anything someone says to me in a normal speaking voice with these headphones on.
Sound is crisp and flat, just what I wanted to monitor audio.
Very poor Bass response, try Sennheiser 555 insteadSeptember 25, 2008 0 out of 5 found this review helpful
If you want closed design and very comfortable headphones, these are great. I was greatly disappointed with these. I tried breaking them in for over 100 hours. Sound is indeed very clear but the depth is non-existing. I have them currently connected through a 4 channel headphone amp. I have my Senn 555 and 650 connected as well. I use a HK AMP reciever. Music is just too bright on the Sony. If you are only used to earbuds you will not know the difference. So if you listen to hip hop, jazz, rock like dire straits, floyd, you will not like these headphones. If you like all the goodness with depth (bass) try the Senns
I see a lot of musicians using these, while recording, looking for flaws, mixing. Well it might be great for them but for rest of us who need to listen and enjoy our music, these are not it.
Mind-Blowing sound quality.September 12, 2008 I've owned these headphones for 6 months or so, and finally decided to write a review after testing them substantially. I don't really have anything to compare these to, as these are my first pair of "big" headphones. All I have to say is that hearing music through these is unlike hearing music through a radio or regular earbuds, or even normal headphones. It's so crystal clear, it's really enlightening to listen to your favorite song and hear all kinds of details you never knew existed.
Comfort: I can wear these for about 5 hours before I need to take them off for a break. I find that they're extremely comfortable when on, and the material cups around your ear just perfectly. The phones are even tilted a slight angle and adjust to various head sizes (1 being a small head, and 9 being a very large head) One thing that is really cool is the way these fold up to save space when you're not using them.
Quality/Fashion: These are great looking headphones, but if you're looking for phones solely for fashions sake, there are headphones that look "cooler". These don't look bad by any means however, and the quality is great up close (leather and and make)
Sound Quality: As noted by everyone else, amazing. One thing I also noticed is that it does a good job of muffling surrounding noise, and it's hard to hear anything around you when they're playing music.
For best results: Try using these in the dark, with a high encoded song (320 kbps and up) and you'll be blown away. Hope my review helped. : )
PS: The cord is rather long, and coils in a phone style. Originally I thought this was too long, but after having used it for a while I find that it's a perfect length, you can just tuck the rest in your pocket/bag/ or whatever. You won't even notice it, and the extra length really comes in handy if you need to get up and get something.
Super quality and performance.August 11, 2008 I finally found it! I have been trying some other headphones from other brands because of the nice reviews convinced me. But the Sony MDR7506 is the best.
FlawlessAugust 5, 2008 As someone who listens to music for 4-5 hours a day at least, I consider myself learned in Headphones.
The Sony MDR7506 is a SUPERB piece of equipment. I have had my pair for well over a year and am STUNNED by the sound quality. Furthermore, I have generally been disappointed with many of Sony's high end products' durability, but the MDR7506 has vastly exceeded my expectations in that regard.
There have been problems with the plastic casing that sets the sound equipment next to your ears, but so far I havn't encountered anything so severe a round of tape couldn't cure it (suggestion: Hose Repair Tape, avaible at most gas stations and auto-parts stores, is both waterproof AND heat resistant).
Bottom line: The best pair of headphones I have ever owned. I will buy again when my pair finally wears out.
