  • what does he mean when he sais they wont bleed a click track?

  • @fergdrumgus Hi there. Thanks for checking out the video. What he means is that if you have a metronome-like track playing (as you're recording, say), that sound won't escape from the headphones and get captured in the microphones you're using. You can imagine, if you're recording acoustic guitar or vocals how frustrating it is to get a great take but hear a "click...click...click...click­..." audible in the background the whole way through. That's one reason these headphones are a great choice.

  • is there a video that shows someone pulling it apart?

  • damn... if I only knew about this sooner :(

  • have two pairs. great headphones! one of the best out there! thomann had a better price, but dont sell them anymore.. :(

  • @CivSkates Okay thanks! That should help me figure out which headphones to buy!

  • @mrabdrum hard to say really. The published numbers are 35 vs 29, but I think they are pretty close in isolation. In terms of frequency, flat response is simply equal amplification of each frequency. Most consumer headphones and speakers will hype the high and low ranges, which is a good thing for listening for enjoyment, but critical listening requires a more accurate representation of the frequency band.
