In Ear Headphones For Studio Monitoring

[1.59 lb] There are headphones designed for audiophiles, for home / studio use, and there are headphones designed for monitoring. The DJH-2500 is ideal for monitoring. The Polsen DJH-2500 Headphones were designed to have the mid range more accentuated on purpose, giving you more ease of listening in what you are hearing / mixing / creating in a live wedding reception, noisy streets, music fests, or similar situations where there’s too much noise and loud music. I’m not a DJ, but my needs are identically similar. I’m a filmmaker / videographer including weddings ,corporate video and dance recitals. So, I use the Polsen DJH-2500 in my camera’s headphone jack. The DJH-2500 allows me to listen to critical audio without having to up the volume all the way because of the accented mid range and the way the ear cups help block sound. The ear cups are comfortable enough for a whole day of use at a venue. If you are the type of listener who likes “Mega Bass” or excessive bass, this is not the headphone for that and you’re going to pay a lot more for it . And for the uneducated listener, too much bass is not ideal either, as it overpowers the mid and high frequencies, especially when using it for monitoring. To my taste, however, I wish the DJH-2500 had a bit more highs though…I like more treble. Other than that, it’s a very useful and a nice pair of headphones. I also like the dual input feature which is nice. If needed, you can hear two input sources at the same time, one source on each ear. Again, for DJs, musicians and videographer, we use that feature. For headphone hygiene, don’t forget to check out this item: it’s a MUST! I use it on every headphone I own: Auray Disposable Over-Ear Headphone Covers (50 Pairs, Black or white). https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1585973-REG [I have received this product in exchange for my honest review].

[10' / 3 m] Comparing this to AKG K240 Studio monitoring headphones it is not as good. But it's very close. This was the only headphone I could find with a removable cable at this price point. Sound quality is very good but not excellent. This may be that I haven't broken the headphones in yet, but the sound stage is stiff and the treble with percussion is a bit muddled without good separation like on the AKG. These headphones have more emphasis on the low-end than the AKG 240's though. Comfort-wise these headphones fit better than AKG from the get-go -- it took awhile for the AKG's to loosen and stop squeezing my glasses to my head. However, I wish the pads were slightly bigger or oval shaped to fit the ears more comfortably. The padding is very soft. Another reviewer noted that the Polsen's 32ohm drivers cannot be driven by an iPad, but this is not the case. I had no issues when testing with normal volumes on an iPad Mini 2. The AKG K240's are 55 ohms in comparison and are decidedly quieter. A good purchase for good quality monitoring.

[Stereo] These headphones are great for the price. Perfect for studio and live audio monitoring. We even use them for videography to monitor audio coming into the cameras.

[4.0] I've had the Beats Studio wireless over-the-ear headphones for over a year and desired the same audio quality in a more portable form. These earbuds do not disappoint. If you're looking for noise-cancelling earbuds with the freedom of bluetooth then these are worth the purchase. The battery life relative to the recharging time is also very impressive.

[0.045 lb] If you have mic'd headphones, then this TRRS is useful for monitoring and recording on a lightning input iPhone.

[Stereo] They have a clear sound and good build, exactly what I'm looking for in affordable monitoring headphones

[Open-Ear] Ear pods always fall out of my ears and over or around ear headphones are heavy and uncomfortable after a while. So I was looking for something different and found these! OMG…they sound fantastic and I don’t even realize that I’m wearing them. I’m sold for life!

[Closed-Back] Nice headphones. Comfortable around the ear. The ANC works really well.

[6 oz / 170 g] These are my first open ear headphones. No more earbuds for me!

[Yes, on Cable] I have used many ear-buds for wireless in-ear monitoring of my stage performances. For this use it is important to me that: 1. The ear-buds do not fall off my ears while I move during my performance; 2. The frequency response of the ear-buds is good enough to hear highs, mids and some low end frequencies (I don't need much of the latter, since I can feel the bass from the sub-woofers we use near the stage); 3. The ear-buds provide an undistorted sound; 4. The ear-buds are as less visible as possible; 5. They fit comfortably in the ears; 6. They have a reasonable price. The Shure SE215 do all that better than any other ear-buds I have ever used before, including the Bose ones, which are great ear-buds and have all the characteristics I'm looking for, except that they are too visible and look kind of ugly on stage photos (and, thus, to the audience).
