Headphones for under $100 for mixing and listening - Page 2

yep it's pretty much between the Grado's, AKG 240's, and Senn 280's at this point.  Probably gonna wait for a good deal to pop up, but I'm really leaning towards the Grados.

Seconding the Sony MDR-7506 (or the debatably identical and usually cheaper V6). The Shure SRH440 and Audio-Technica ATH-M30, though less popular than their big brothers, are also worth consideration.

Don't try to mix with Grados. They're fun, but nowhere near flat.

Of course I'm serious.  If you know people who mix exclusively on headphones, good for them, as long as their clients are happy, that's all that matters....

Headphones are great for mixing. There is no better way to get a feel for the sound field than with 'phones. I like a nice wide stage. Levels can get pretty close with headphones but the final listening-to NEEDS to be on good monitors. 


BTW, I still vote AKG K240s for anything but recording vocals with a condenser mic.
