If you need a pair of good headphones for tracking, mixing, or hi-fi listening, the range can be overwhelming at first. We've seen and tested them all to find out what the most compelling buys might be.

Take note that we're rating them on price, sound, comfort, and usability. Some are closed back and might suit recording sessions where you prefer not to have sound bleed through, and some are open back which will probably suit mixing sessions a lot better due to a 'truer' sound.

Any pick on this list is sure to take your listening experience to the next level...





Audio Technica M50x Studio Headphones

The M50x is easily the most popular headphones we sell and it's for good reason. They feel at home whether you are tracking or in the middle of a mixing/mastering session. They offer an accurate middle and high-end and a little bump in the lows which can help hone in on what the low end of your mix is doing (especially helpful if you don't have subs in your studio).

Chances are if you're looking into studio headphones you have heard of the M50x, and it's not a coincidence!
