I compare the top studio headphones out there! I test the sound quality, build quality, sound stage, frequency response, mixing, tracking, vocal recording, bass, midi, and treble, and I even test them with a headphone amp. These are the best studio headphones out right now. And one of them is under $50! Wow! I provide my top recommendations from these headphones as well. These headphones are the best selling and best quality for the price. Headphones include the Beyerdynamic, Audio Technica, Sennheiser, Neumann, Slate, and AIAIAI.

You actually helped me make the choice of buying the DT 700 Pro X Headphones and they're literally the best I've ever used for making music. Thanks for all of your hard work that you put into your reviews it is very much appreciated!
Jesus loves yall, died for us, and rose again! Jesus calls for all of us to repent! He's coming back
Hello! What about SONY MDR-7506?
FYI: Beyerdynamic sells replacement parts so you could have easily repaired the headphones instead of replacing them. Not as easy as a plug in type but still a good option.
Thanks, akdm82! Have you had to replace any parts on yours?
@@SanjayC I replaced the cable on my DT-880 Pros. It's requires soldering to detach the old cable and attach the new one, so it's a bit fiddly, but I don't really have any practice soldering and didn't find it too difficult.
They sell but the support is really horrible, they don't reply, or they reply and just next they completely forgot about you. I had my own really bad experience with them. :(
@@SanjayC thankfully, no. Then again, I keep my studio locked with a digital lock that auto-locks and no animals or kids are allowed. 😜🤣
I have Ath-50x (10+ yrs old). My DT-990 metal band attachment broke on one side (less than 2yrs old).
I love my DT 770 80ohms, but I must say using them for the first time was quite confronting. The lack of Bass response and the very revealing midrange took a little to get used to compared to what I was using previously. However these are perfect for mixing sound that requires less bass response such as vocals and guitars. You can really hone in on the troublesome frequencies especially in the midrange, upper midrange and highs. I tend to use my monitors and sub to balance the low and sub low frequencies. Its a great method that works for me. Great to see what others use and how they get their results.
I've been using the Beyerdynamic DT 770 80ohms for at least a decade. They are the most comfortable headphones I've ever used and the sound quality is excellent. (Audio Technica's are good but not as comfortable) Price point is excellent. You'll see them al lot in studios.
I really l like the HD600 the most on this list. It has one of the best frequency response on a headphone that is right for mixing & mastering because of it's spaciousness & detail. I used the Audio Technica M20x for 3 years now, & the right side of the headphone is not working anymore just a week ago. But nonetheless, It was a great experience making music with the M20x! :) Right now it's hard for me, because I lost my M20x that started my journey on music. That's why thank you so much Sanjay for sharing these recommendations!❤ It helps me pick what would be my next headphone. Really appreciate your efforts on this one!🙌
Which did you end up getting?
I'd definitely pick the Audio-Technica M40X! It's a really nice, balanced option for everything, and the biggest bang for your buck, especially compared to the M50X. It makes more sense. It also really helps that it's so flexible, meaning I could still hear other things and people. Plus, I could take it everywhere much more easily. The comfort is good enough still as well.
I use the M40x at my work, but I work in video production, so it's strictly for field camera monitoring, not music production. I only wish they had velour earpads rather than the vinyl (same for the headband), because the vinyl flakes apart on your ears in no time.
@@ebinrockI have a pair of the m50’s and I’ve had the same thing happening. They’ve started flaking. I also find that they get warm with long wear sessions which makes them more uncomfortable. After only having them a couple years, only one side works. Not sure if it’s the cord or not. It’s too bad because I loved them until I now kinda don’t. I wish they were more comfortable and that they lasted longer. Now I’m using my AirPod Pros while I figure out which headphones to get.
DT 990 250 ohms have been some of my favorite to use because of how comfortable it is. Along with it's mixing and soundstage qualities, the air that passes through the cups makes it a pair that you can use for long amounts of time. Perfect for film scoring.

Your recommendations are always on point. Thank you for doing the research and testing them out for us.
Thank you!
Hurray! I've been looking forward to this one, and you don't disappoint. I've been using the M50x for awhile, and I really love them. I've wish-listed the Neumanns, though. I'll definitely be checking out the Sonarworks software (via your link, naturally). Thanks again!
Beyerdynamic are always the best choice for me. Just the comfort makes them so much nicer to use. I have both DT770 and DT990, both incredible.
How's the sound signature on them...
@@lavatr8322 really balanced. bass doesn't bang, so leaves room for mids and highs. so, really good for mixing. not good if u just want to listen to music
dont get me wrong the bass is there its just overpowered by the high end
@@kadekais but what if I want to hear detailed bass , do they give that output? Like for Example Hans Zimmer music has a lot of thicc Low end and huge drums , I would love to listen to that clear low end
@@lavatr8322 its hard to explain, but yes you def feel and hear the bass in detail but its not the most important fq in the mix. its pretty balanced just the mids and highs stand out a bit more
SanjayC is SOOOOOO right. Every set of headphones, even if 'flat', has its own color and take on your music. But like SanjayC says, get to know your headphones and their sound reproduction for your own best results. LOVE this channel!!!!
think i see too many livepros wont add another, ill wait for other for lessfox score
Sanjay, the AIAIAI Tm-2’s didn’t make the list ?
I've got a chance to work with the Beyerdynamic DT 770 and it sounds great! I also love how comfortable it is. This will definitely be added in to my Christmas shopping list!
Jesus loves yall, died for us, and rose again! Jesus calls for all of us to repent! He's coming back
DT 770 pro X SE
Who is this Je-sus guy that you're going on about? @@highestpeeqs9532
anyways, I just really need to tell that i have this massive crush on your studio aesthethics...gives so much life to the video, thats definetely goals man
True omg
🎧🎶🥳 you know my favorites!!!! Amazing video! I’m sure this will help so many people🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽💕
Let us know which one you like most!
Listen! The slate LITERALLY WORKS as intended. You use them when mixing, and you’ll get what you intended to get out of it on the FIRST. MIX. DOWN. No more car test. No more versions 2-27, if you use these at the end of your mix on the stereo buss, it removes any doubt. But you can’t just use one room emulation. Pick three or four. Don’t stop until it sounds great in three or four different emulated listening environments. I use one of the mastering rooms, a couple mix rooms, and like, a car interior emulation or one of the headphones. If I can get the mix to translate in all of those? There will be no surprises. No, the headphones themselves don’t spec out like maybe the HD600’s (which I also have) or sound as dope as the top tier Sony Bluetooth WH-1000XM5’s I listen to everything on (I’ve had the previous three models too) or any other pro set of cans I’ve owned. I even have Sonarworks Software customized at Sonarworks specifically for the exact pair of Sennheiser HD600 ones like the ones Sanjay is raffling. Sonar had two options: buy the software with an algorithm designed to the make and model you already own, which claimed to be like 90-95 percent accurate, or buy a pair of high end headphones through THEM and they will tune the software more precisely to your exact pair and ship it to you from like, Latvia or somewhere. Those would be even MORE accurate. When I did it, you had the option to emulate specific DEVICES like Yamaha NS10 speakers, Beats By Dre back when Dr. Dre owned it, a few other well known speakers, etc. but then they lost the license to do that, so it became more general. But even when it was modeling specific known listening devices, notice it didn’t model a room or a night club or two to three different cars. Slate was modeling the speakers AND the room so as to give you the sense you were mixing in different common professional environments. And many of the emulated rooms will HAVE auratone mix cubes, or Yamahas or whatever was actually there when they measured the sound responses and you can switch between pro speakers in any of those rooms.
That functionality does not need to be accurate, just different than the other options to give you hypothetical use case examples and it 100 percent will do that.
As for the bad build quality, Sanjay must’ve gotten one of the ones they FIRST made. Mine broke. All I did was mention that in a facebook group. A brand new pair just showed up at my house WITHOUT HAVING TO EVEN SUBMIT A CUSTOMER SERVICE REQUEST. They didn’t even ask for my address and I don’t recall telling them that I had recently moved or where!
When I compared it to my cracked pair, I noticed they must’ve used a slightly different vendor for the units themselves because there are differences between the new ones (same model) and one of the original editions of the model.
I watched the entire video, and I have to say, the range of headphones you covered is impressive! Each of them has its unique features and strengths, but if I had to pick a favorite, I'd go with the Sennheiser headphones. Their sound quality is outstanding, providing a rich and immersive listening experience. The comfort and build quality are also top-notch, making them a great choice for extended listening sessions. Thanks for the compressive review. 🎉
I started with the m20x's and they are great for the price but the m40x's are my favorite. Sounds more balanced for mixing on the go. Great video as always!
How comfortable are they?
I stand by the M50x for all my songs! I've been using them for a few years and they're so fun to produce on due to the colored sound. But mixing always came as a challenge for me so I'm saving up for a good Headphone to mix on like the HD600. As always amazing video Sanjay! Long time fan
i also use m50x and i got really used to them and loved their sound.. BUT UNFORTUNATELY my friend, once i started mixing for others and exporting more music out there, I realized that on average in cars and speakers and other headphones that my bass was flatter and my mids were HIGHER than i had mixed them!! thats a huge problem for me!! and go figure i then realized that the m50 BOOSTS the bass and lowers the mids! - and my friend that was jus NOT ACCEPTABLE so now I am really looking to either change to the m40 or the DT's
@@thebicycleman8062 are the m40s better to produce beats on?
Instead of upgrading my Senheiser HD598's I just purchased Sonarworx Reference and that did a WORLD OF DIFFERENCE to the quality of sound. It's like I have entirely new headphones. This has improved mixing and mastering tremendously
Aside from your incredible reviews, I'm so appreciative of the fact that this video and your speaking moves at a normal conversational pace. so many CZcams review channels talk at such a frantic pace that I feel like I'm getting nauseated and dizzy just trying to listen to every word at break next speed. That is so fatiguing, and this channel is not!
Happy Hallowe'en!!!
I love the DT990 headphones and have used them about 5 years now..........highly recommended indeed.
Great video! These days, I use 3 headphone sets - DT770’s, AT M50x, and the standard Sony MDR 7506’s - they each have their purpose and strengths, and I use all 3 every week.
Great video as always, Sanjay. I just purchased the Focal Clear MG and have been having a really great time listening and recording with them. I know they weren't on this list, but after months of research, I pulled the trigger on those. 🙂
Excellent advice for the beginner producer. For me, I use Audio Technica ATH M30X and ATH M50X, as well as Sennheiser HD 400 PRO, Beringher BH470 and One0dio Studio 10 (not recommended other than casual listening). Always great advice. Always accurate information. Always good... Always Sanjay C.
Those teal ones!!! I haven’t finished the video yet but i hope you scored them high cause they’re cute and i need them, haha.
Hi Jamie! Yeah, I like them! Lots of other nice colors too!
Honestly I got a pair of Shure's SRH1540 headphones on sale, and with these I've had the most success getting tracks/mixes to translate. Worth checking out (although a bit pricy)!
It always makes me happy to see someone living their best life. Sanjay, you and your wife are pretty much adorable. Thanks for another great video. My wife "borrowed" my ATH mx50's and loves them haha
So nice of you 🙏🏼
It's a nice time to be creating music, indeed! Thanks Sanjay!
:-) So many nice tools to make our music production easy!
Thanks for the review. I'm bias to the Beyerdynamic DT770 and 990 pros. They are so comfortable and provides the sound I need.
I've returned the DT 990 pro 250 ohm headphones because of its harshness at the high end.
IS THERE ANY ALTERNATIVE FOR THAT PRICE?
which headphones are better beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro 250 Ohm or beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro 80 Ohm. And what is the difference
Thank you Sanjay, this was very helpful. I’m tired of the “punchy” bass on commercial headphones, whenever I type in “low bass headphones” on Google it gives me results for ones with high bass!! Wtf 😂. Anyway enjoyed your video! Thx
I really like the m40x audio technica, bescuse the dont overpriced they do what they ment to do and they are very comftable❤
Always good to know what’s trending, Doh I LOVE my BD DT 880 Pro still 🥰
Hey, you got here fast! Nice to know you love your 880s. What would you choose for a second pair in your studio?
@@SanjayC Dang, I’m sorry Sanjay, just got notified about a reply 😟
But since you asked, im actually eye-goggling (is that right ?😂) the Sennheiser HD 650 + the individual calibration by SonarWorks or a pair of OLLO Audio S4X, recommended by a friend.
Are there any you would suggest for updating from BD DT 880 Pro with the focus on mixing & mastering ?
Best Greetings and both take care ✌️
Loved the explanations! Only thing I'm missing are the AKG K701s. I have both the AKGs, as the DT 770 PRO 250 ohm - my preference goes to the AKG because the Beyerdynamics sound too muddy/bassy compared to the AKGs. I only use the Beyerdynamics for vocals now...
I’ve been waiting for this video! So excited it’s here ❤
Hey Cameron! How are you?
@@SanjayC not too bad thanks!
A week off college is nice and I got a pay rise!
On the down side distrokid wheel of playlist led to my song going in a bot playlist and they say they can’t help. So I’m hoping nothing too bad comes from it.
Streams are dying down from that playlist for now so fingers crossed!
I like the Audio Technica ATH-M40x. because I already have a pair and it has a balanced lovely sound 🖤
Very useful video. Thanks😊
Bro. Thank you so much for not making this hard to understand this is the only gear video that has ever not frustrated me 😂 subscribed immediately!
Fr, gear videos are so annoying sometimes 😅 like speak English bruh
Thanks for this video. Really helpful. I was a bit surprised that the Sony MDR 7506's didn't make the list.😊🎧
same here
I've been using Audio Technica M50x since 2018 and here are the Pros & Cons from my point of view:
Pros:
1. For this price point they sound really amazing. Especially, at the lower frequencies. It's almost like they enhance the lower frequencies a bit. Must have if you are into bass-oriented music like Hip Hop & EDM.
2. Detachable cables. You also get 3 additional cables with the box.
3. Can be folded and carried easily. Great if you travel a lot.
Cons:
1. The leather from headband & earpads wears out very easily, especially if you use them very often.
2. The earpad cushion is very thin and a bit uncomfortable. This becomes more prominent if you are into longer sessions.
3. Due to thin earpad cushioning, ears may touch to audio drive for some users which may cause some discomfort.
I respect a guy who has a delorean model in their background. Also thanks for this video!
Haha! BTTF is my fav movie
@@SanjayC Same! It’s my favorite movie trilogy!
Hey Sanjay! For the higher impedance headphones, could you do a video on recommended headphone amplifiers for a range of budgets? I recently bought a pair of Sennheiser HD 400 PRO headphones (120 ohms) along with the headphone amplifier FiiO K5Pro, but I have either been unimpressed with the headphones or the headphone amp, I am not sure which. Also, depending on the ampere of one's headphone will determine if you need a headphone amplifier at all. Please correct me, if I am wrong. Namaste.
Yeah, the VSX are way better for mixing purposes than everything else, I had Audio Technicas, Beyer Dynamics for a few years, then the VSX really changed the game.
Same!
@@macdesi4321 do you use it to mix or just for final check?? I really would like to try it but i m not sure.
I Like the Audio technica M40s-M50s Cause therir comfort is good for working ,They have good bass level & They are also portable & the lines you said that use the headphones you can aford at a time was so good, & i also using the headphones of boat i can afoord tho!! thank you sanjay c for advice🥰
I agree Beyerdynamic DT 990 are one of my favourite✌️
so glad i found this video. i will use to monitor before streaming
I love the dt 700 headphones
I can mix, track and produce music with them they're incredible❤
I can't recommend the DT 770s enough. Took a few weeks to get used to the clamping force on my head but now they're extremely comfortable. Soft cups and they don't feel bad in the heat of the summer.
I have recently found your channel and cannot begin to describe my appreciation.
You helped me with my MIDI Controller selection, thoroughly, my launchpad (instead of APK), and now headphones!
Your recommendations are always on point. My favourite heaphones from the list are DT990 pro
Everytime I watch your video my audio nerd is very satisfied
I like the Audio Technica M20X those are fire!!
Fair warning for sweaty folks: the Audio Technica M40X ear pads will need to be replaced after a year or so because they start to peel. Sweat and pleather ear pads is always a struggle
I've used the AT M50's for years and they're fantastic. I agree that over a long listening session they can get a bit uncomfortable but I'm happy with how they sound. I've found them to be good at revealing stuff I hadn't previously heard, which is kind of the point of them.
Not greedy - The Beyer DT990s would be great 😊
I've been using the DT 990 for a while and they've suited me quite well, aside from a few issues here and there they've been pretty good to work with, although because I haven't tried the others I'd have to say that these are my favourites on the list
i used the Sennheiser hd 600 in a music store once and i fell in love immediately. one day i will get a pair
@SanjayC Always loved your videos, they are a great source of knowledge and reviews are great! What are your thoughts on Audeze LCD-X 2021 revision? for music production, mixing, and mastering?
I am literally here because my cat just chewed trough my DT 990 PRO which I has forever! Damned animals!
Hey Sanjay, would love to see how you feel about the ATH-R70x! Feels like an often skipped on pair of headphones. I love them, though I can't say I've had the experience of comparing them to other similar priced options.
I would love to get my hands on those Neumann's at some point. I've also heard so many good things and for years, about the Sennheisser 600's.
Your videos always have such a comforting feel and I love it! Since I already have a pair of DT 700's, I think the most interesting headphones on the list are the AIAIAI TMA-2 Wireless. Cables tend to annoy me and the modular construction feels fresh :)
Thanks! Let us know if you have any questions about them 😊
Sanjay, almost sold on the beyerdynamic dt990 pro for mixing. Love to go for the neumann or the beyerdynamic 1990, but can't afford them. My question: for mixing and mastering, the old dt990 pro or the new dt990 pro X? will both up the game enough with sound correction? thanx.
Amazing video as always! Will have to share for sure 👍
I have always loved the Audio Technica M20X
Hey Sanjay. Great video! I've been considering getting the VSXs for quite some time now, as I'm in a tiny bedroom and don't have the time/resources to invest in treating my room. But I've also been looking at studio monitors (the KRK Rokit 5s is one) as well,and I'm not sure which one to go with. Should I get the VSX headphones, which aren't going to be loud, but also won't be "as good" as listening through monitors, Or should I invest in monitors, and sacrifice a little more time and money for a possible better sound quality and reference for mixing?
I love my Beyerdynamic DT 700 PRO X. They are so confortable and stylish. You can spend so much time with them on.
Hey Mr. Craig! How would the Rode NTH-100s stack against any of these on this list for mixing?
i got the dt770 2 months ago after pondering over reviews of which your review confirmed my decision. In a noisy room it is still a great general use headphone (roommates), but in a quiet room i can hear every single one of my 12 simultaneous tracks when i am arranging. it honestly made me double check on speakers/earbuds/normal headphones sometimes because it just sounds clearer than most. Love it.
I've always wanted the DT770 phones, but thinking maybe the DT700 would be a better fit. Maybe after the holiday season I'll get them.
i've had the DT 990 pro for years and I just love the way they sound, I use em for everything, editing videos, practising bass, gaming or just listening to music
Jesus loves yall, died for us, and rose again! Jesus calls for all of us to repent! He's coming back
Have you tried the Sony MDR-7506? These are highly rated
Yes, and I've actually recommended them before. I've used them for years, and quite happy with them. But for this video, I had to be very picky for my budget pick and isolation pick, so the Sony's didn't make the cut. But I'll always have the 7506s in my studio.
You radiate positive energy, Sanjay ! I feel relaxed and positive when watching your videos !
I think one of the better buys is a set of headphones that can do BOTH wired and wireless. I've been using Sennheiser HD4.50Rs for years. When recording and needing low-latency connection, I just plug in wired. For wandering about the house while listening to music or videos, the Bluetooth connectivity is great.
Love the new video SanjayC! Very educational as always 😊
Thanks so much. So glad you learned something from it!
I went further in my wish to have a great sound. I Bought Audeze MM 500 They are very expensive but, compared to what speakers on a high lever cost is this not a bad choice. You should test them.
Hey! Awesome video, as usual!
A good wireless solution, would be pairing an audio transmitter like the Sennheiser BT T100, to a compatible wireless headphone that supports different Low Latency codecs, like the new Sennheiser ACCENTUM. Works great for me, on non-critical listening.
Keep the good work! :D
Excellent video! There's two more aspect I consider important: 1) can you replace the earpads, and if so, how easy is that and what do they cost? (maybe you could do video on proprietary vs cheap alternatives) 2) maybe a bit embarrassing, but working for hours/days with headphones on will make your ears sweaty and increase the risk of fungal infections, even in your ear canal (itching up to inflammation). I wonder whether using open or closed back or the material (velvet vs. leather) of the earpads makes a difference.
My favourite out of the bunch are the M50x...I have used Audio Techica headphones for a long time and love the mix I get through them!
Hey Sanjay cheers from France and thanks for the video. Definitely wanna try the Neumann NDH 30.
What do you think of using the AIAIAI for field recording ? That way you wouldn't have the usual cable getting in the way or getting picked up while recording on the move ?
The dot 990’s has always been in my studio based on the quality in sound and also I can wear them for hours without being sore!
been rocking the aiaiai tma 2s for a while and i love them for studio work n djing, hoping to upgrade to the Neumann NDH 30s or the Sennheiser 600 for mixing purposes soon!! big ups to you for creating such in depth videos for musicians everywhere
Great info, perfect summary. Thanks so much for the insight ^_^
Super helpful, thank you! I started out with the AT M40X.
Can you suggest in ear Monitors
For the same purposes?
I have monitor headphones and speakers
But I want to wear something lighter on ear
While composing casually with iPad
The normal tws are excellent comfort on the go and at home casually composing on the couch
But they are designed for music lovers
Is there anything for music production purpose
Great question. You know, I've tried some in-ear monitors and there are some I've really loved. Let me see what I can put together. Do you have a price range in mind?
@@SanjayC under $50 or $100 sir
Same question. Would love to hear your take on this Sanjay
been looking for some mixing headphones, thank you for this video, keep up the good work!
Great video , always a thorough breakdown. I'm hoping that you'll have an updated laptop list soon.
Slate has the best customer service. In the beginning they had a production issue with the plastic and they replaced mine TWICE until I had a pair that I was happy with. I'm sure if you reach out with that padding issue they would replace it no questions asked.
Perfect timing! Have been thinking about getting the Dt 990 Pro :).
So? Are you going to get them after this vid? :-)
@@SanjayC Definitely! Thank you for the video. :D
I love the Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro 250 Ohm. I am on my third pair. I tried others but found the 770s to be an invaluable magnifier during mixing.
Have you tried the 80s and 32s? If so we're they similar sound stage?
@@MrMitchellday I tried the 80 Ohms but it sounds very different to my ears and I didn't like it. I didn't try the 32 Ohms. I would only buy the 250 Ohms version. Please mind that you do need a suitable headphone amplifier - one that supports high impedance headphones - to achieve a reasonable volume.
Hey! Very good review of all this headphones thank you very much. You didn't took time to tell what you think about the sound of the AIAIAI's, which is what I came for lol.
Thx
Thank you for the video - beautifully produced
I had a Senheiser 10 years back and unfortunately broke the wire which could have been replaceable. Unfortunately I misplaced it when moving houses. Love your video's Sanjay and your mixes are really tight.
VSX for me. I don't have the luxury of a room I can mix in. The VSX have been an eye and ear opener
I use the Audio Technics M50X for my closed-back mixing/listening headphones. I use AKG K701 for my open-back headphones. Have you ever tried the AKGs? I like them but I really have limited experience and knowledge for mixing at this point. Good review! Thanks
Hi Sanjay, I wanted to know more about the Slate VSX. Is this a good headphone for tracking and recording/music Production or is it primarily only for Mixing & Mastering ? I have a Sennheiser HD 215, which I have recorded there about 6 records. I am trying to upgrade my gear and I was trying to wreck my head around the DT1770 Pro from Beredynamics and the VXS. Inspite of the 215 being a closed back, there seems to be leak of sound while recording. What do you suggest ?
I got the DT 770s and I’m loving them. So comfortable too!
Sennheiser 600 & Audio Technica M50X can be so cool if one got the budget. not gonna talk about that Neumann NDH 30 💀💀 But my personal fav is these two!
Thanks for the great review. Subbed! ! What would you reccomend for production though? Looking for a satisfying pair that has good subs, which is comfortable, not so clinical but not so colored either :) Mainly for EDM. Trap etc
