These headphones are great for mixing, and loud enough to cut through the noise in a live set.

Nothing much to say... superb quality audio, comfortable to use/wear, folded nicely to be put in the bag.

Great sound quality. They sound very clear and provide a great range rather than the bass heavy sound that earbuds output.

After dealing with some of the more stylish headphone brands that ended up sounding ok but falling apart fairly quickly, I decided to spend a bit more and give the MDR-7506's a go based on the hundreds of glowing reviews here and elsewhere.

I've had them for a couple weeks now and love them, these are by far the best headphones I have ever owned. Everything sounds crisp and clean, there's a decent amount of bass, but it's not overemphasized. I'm not as knowledgeable about the different aspects of audio as some reviewers here, but I can explain it this way; in the past I was constantly mucking around with the EQ in my player software, now I generally don't have to because things just sound "right".

The MDR-7506s are also darn comfortable. I bought a pair of Garfield earpad softies from the get-go, and with those on I haven't noticed much discomfort, even after extended use. The headband conforms to my skull well and adjusts easily. It's got kind of a ratchet thing going on, everything locks into place and stays that way- one side isn't slowly slipping down or anything like that.

The rest: the cord is plenty long, but coiled so it doesn't get in the way. Everything seems well made and sturdy- I don't feel like I have to handle the things with kid gloves (not that I'm throwing them around, either). The phones have a little hinge on each side so that they fold up nice, making them pretty compact for travel or whatever. I find myself liking the way they look more and more- they aren't stylish, but they are designed with kind of a perfect utility.

I sold my Bose QC3's and decided to go with these after a good music producer friend of mine steered me toward these. I love the sound and they are very comfortable. The bass doesn't get distorted like the Bose and Beats By Dre. This set is the BEST BANG for the BUCK!!!!

I use these for video editing. Good, clean sound and comfortable to wear for long periods of time. The material that covers the padded earpieces seems to be coming loose after only using them a few times... I don't know if it is poor design or the way I handle them??? but that is the only problem I have had. Overall nice, professional product.

I bought these headphones for work and I could not be happier. I do video work, and a lot of writing and to be honest I just needed something that I could wear all day without becoming uncomfortable. I'll be honest, I don't know much about sound, but the quality is great for me. The cord is long enough to reach where I need it to go and it doesn't get in the way. Great pair of headphones!

Comments about Sony MDR-7506 Circumaural Closed-Back Professional Monitor Headphone:

These are simply the best headphones I have every used for mixing and sound editing. The large earpad cover my ears completely and make wearing them for prolonged periods of time very comfortable. They give a true flat sound with no extra low end. Simply put these are excellent - no wonder they are the industry standard.

The Sony MDR-7506 headphones are solid and useful kit that I wouldn't be caught without. They are rugged and reliable, and can endure a fair bit of abuse while still sounding pretty good. They aren't the most accurate or clean headphones available, but for production work they can't be beat, especially at their price.

Computer or MP3 player, they fit in any place, and they really do a good work.
The sound is clear, you can perceive the details, you can distinguish beat.
They are so good That I wish I could sleep with them and listen waves, because the quality sound is so good u think you re next the ocean.

Very happy with my purchase of the sony mdr-7506 headphones. It was delivered on time and was properly packaged and sustained no damage. These are the first pair of over-ear headphones I have bought. I use them to listen to music/movies on my computer. I find the sound crisp but also with full bass. The best of both worlds in my opinion. I would recommend this product to friends and family.

The Sony Mdr-7506 isn't Bad, especially because of its price, but if you look at the Sony Mdr-V6 i think you will got the same quality for 15 dollars less because from what I read all the composant are the same but the Gold plaqued adaptor...if you think the extra jewellery worth the 15 box well take them. I was just dreaming trough an Urban legend when i think this Headphones was Hi-Fi for low price, they sound flat, are good for monitoring rock or jazz, but they have a lack of frequency range that can make them sound pretty bad when you listen to extremely complex and demanding music like we can heard today, i found myself being unable to listen to Fennesz, Vladislav Delay, Tim Hecker and other musician that mix a lot of different sound at the same time to create an architectural music that must use all the capacities of more than average Headphones...the Sony mdr-7506 isnt more than average Headphones. It worth its price, but I prefer the sound quality of the Sennheiser Hd280...in the two case the bass is'nt punchy as a Big Subwoofer but the Hd280 never distort on me, i can't say the same for the Mdr-7506.

I've been using these headphone ever since Sony introduced them. As a broadcast professional they are the best I've ever found for multiple situations. Good live, in studio, in booth and on camera. Not colored at all. No false bottom end. Clear, clean, perfect

My boyfriend got me these headphones for my birthday after he had recommended them to me months prior. I had been looking for a pair that would a) block out outside noise b) be easy to travel with c) not break the bank and lastly but most importantly, d) deliver exceptional sound quality. These headphones tick all boxes!
I can wear them without playing music to block out annoyances but not be completely deaf while running around downtown. They fold up easily and fit conveniently in the travel pouch included, which is the perfect size to throw into my handbag. The sound quality is just great! I listen to a lot of acappella, acoustic, and rock music. Using these headphones has let me hear things I've never heard before. The bass with some headphones can sound muddled because it's so low, but not with these. Everything is crystal clear and I find myself getting stuck playing and replaying music, rejoicing when I hear something new on my old tunes!
I would definitely recommend these headphones to anyone looking for a professional quality piece. My only thumbs down is that the leather pads on the ear part can trap the heat from your head and become too warm over time. I also have the foam replacements that I hear will prevent this (I have yet to try those). This is such a minor detail though that it doesn't truly affect my overall love of this product. Go out and get a pair, you won't regret it! Enjoy!
