5Excellent for my home recording studio.  Jul 28, 2010
I purchased these headphones for my home recording studio after reviewing countless offerings. I made this choice based on other users' reviews and the purported use of these headphones in professional recording studios. They are very comfortable, sound beautiful, have gold-plated connections, a screw-on 1/4" adapter and a robust cable. I have been very pleased with my purchase and plan to purchase a second set for when fellow musicians come over to lay down tracks. They have been comfortable to wear for long periods and fit around my ears perfectly. If you have larger ears this may not be the case. I cannot yet review their durability but all my old headphones had disintegrated in the Arizona heat.

5After over 12 years of use  Jul 22, 2010
I own the 7506 from late 90's.
The best headphones for mixing (considering their cost) at my work (TV station, audio area)
"Musical detail levels" are present very clear.
Only lost the cover from the pad, but still ok to work with them
Somebody wants to buy them, If I sell them surely I'll buy another new ones.




5The Best headphones ever. Period.  Jul 16, 2010
I have been professionally recording for 15 years, and have owned these since Day 1. I use these headphones both in the concert hall and in the studio. I recently bought a second pair, just so I have a spare for the day that my first pair dies. I highly recommend these headphones for all your recoding and listening needs. After 15 years of continual use, the only thing starting to happen is that the cover over the foam is just now starting to separate. But, I fully expect them to last another 15 years at least.

5The Best Headphones for Classical and Vocal Music  Jul 14, 2010
I recently produced five CDs for the Yale Whiffenpoofs and spent many hours listening to singing. The most difficult task was working with a recording engineer in Florida while I was in Connecticut. He would put the transcribed music on the server for me to listen to, and I would send back my comments and suggestions. It was important that I hear the music as clearly as possible, and after trying 8 different pairs of headphones, I am convinced the Sony MDR-7506 headphones are the best available. The only other phones that were comparable were the Sennheiser HD650s, but these cost roughly three times more. But I prefer the Sony's for their realism and sound stage.

Sound stage is an abstract concept that is difficult to explain. When earphones provide a good sound stage, the listener feels both left-right differential but forward-back depth. This capability is a perception, not a reality, and has a lot to do with how well the music has been engineered in the sound studio. But some headphones present a full sound stage and others do not. I have always appreciated the Sennheisers for doing this well, but the Sony MDR-7506 headphones do it the best. This gives the music a depth beyond that generated by stereo, and allows one to listen for extended periods of time without fatigue.

I even recommend these headphones if all you are going to do is listen to rock. The bass response is flat, not enhanced, however. But I have listened to some well engineered rock with these and it comes alive. The midrange is alive and crystal clear. Vocals are so realistic that you are transported. Sometimes it takes my breath away. I love these headphones.

5great set of phones for a great price  Jul 14, 2010
I don't have the time to give a detailed review but I will say I love the way these headphones perform and have already recommended them to other family members (musicians in need of quality headphones for monitoring)
