Best Headphones For Audio Engineering

[ABS, MDF] for those getting serious with their audio while its advanced engineering make the feel and sound so professional

[Closed-Back] Best headphones I've ever owned! Outstanding!

[12 to 24 VDC] Best rack pullout monitor for camera engineering. The Datavideo one that costs twice the coin is terrible. It’s useless as a calibrated monitor and doesn’t have scopes built in like this one. The Lilliput also has the connections conveniently placed on the backplane, keeping wires out of the pulling mechanism.

[99 dB ] I use these for audio engineering, and casual listening at my computer. Comes with different lengths and styles of input cords to accommodate whatever your needs may be.

I've used the Otto Engineering Earphone Kits for almost 5 years now. I use them in a college TV studio for IFB (internal feedback) purposes, and they work great! I still have my original two kits, and they have worked flawlessly from day one. We use these with our anchors on set so they can hear program audio for live talkbacks and in circumstances where they may not be able to hear studio audio. I've read a couple negative comments here, and I think it should be clear that these units are NOT built for high quality audio. The design alone should make that obvious, but I realize that some people are looking for high quality audio monitoring. These are designed for basic monitoring and reference - such as for use in a studio for IFB purposes. They are not built for purposes that require good sound reproduction (such as audio mixing). I'll also state that these earphones do require a little more amplification than a standard headphone or earbud, so be aware that some devices - especially portable devices - may not produced a loud enough signal if you are in a noisy location. I haven't had much problem with this, but I know that the volume level I've used with this particular product has been higher than other headphones connected to the same audio output. The bottom line for me is that there is nothing else in this price range that does the job as well as the Otto Engineering Earphone. And, to be honest, I've found it difficult to find any other standalone earphones that don't come with an IFB product or communications device.

[4] I'm a voice actor and utilize both a VO sound booth and a separate engineering station outside the booth. I wanted a compact volume control for my headphone inside the booth because my audio interface is located in the engineering station, not inside the booth. This device is perfect! I attached it to a small table and can ride it like a fader if need be for live, directed sessions with other studios, as well as coaches. Great build quality and lossless audio. Very happy!

[7 Hours (BT)] Nice headphones, very good audio quality, looks great too!!!

[-12 dB] IT IS THE BEST AUDIO INTERFACE SND IT QUICKLY AND ALL PERFECT

[23 x 20 x 6.5"] We use this at Best Audio Visual and its flawless, we will be buying a couple more!
