Hi Richard


Depending on where and when you want to use the headphones, it is good
to remember that the all time Industry Standard earphones are and
always were the Beyer Dynamic DT 100.


They sound rubbish though.


Hmmmmmmmm?

As used on the greatest records of all time?

And in the top studios world wide [and mine!]


Sure. There's a lot of gear used in the top studios worldwide (and mine)
that sounds like rubbish. For a lot of applications, that's just fine.
Tracking phones aren't supposed to sound good, they're supposed to have
low leakage.
