KRK KNS 8402

These are fantastic. They sound really nice. If you're looking for super flat, they may not be exactly what you're looking for. If you're looking for something that sounds really accurate, and at the higher end of the desired result, they probably are. Not high as in pitch, high as in quality sound, all the way through. They're light and comfortable. The only criticisms are that they may not be super tough, not saying they don't hold up. Mine don't get babied and they're holding up great for the past six months or so. And then the only thing I get annoyed with is the disconnect. It's probably me not fully locking it in, but once in awhile they pull out if I move a bit. Again, I think it's more not fully locking up the twist lock fitting. And that could be slightly better in the way it works, because it can seem like it's there, but then it isn't. Guess I've gotten used to it now but it's the one thing that I can say for the negative side. They're not super expensive for the level of sound quality and comfort, so it's really not a big deal if there's a couple of minor issues. But figured that may be something to know ahead. If you're gonna be moving around a lot while playing or something, make sure you lock them in because disconnecting at the wrong moment can kinda bump the vibe off a bit.

I wanted one headphone that I could track with, mix with, and just use for general listening. I wanted something that I didn't have to handle with extreme care. This does all of those pretty dang well. They don't let any noise out if you're recording next to a mic. They're also light weight and nimble enough that it doesn't get in the way physically from a vocal performance. They also don't let noise in which is great for general listening. For mixing they are detailed, especially in the highs and mids, and seem true to the source. Just listening to several songs on Spotify its immediately clear which ones are mixed well and which ones aren't. The only thing I wouldn't fully trust on these is the bass, it seems slightly exaggerated, it sounds good! But just seems a bit embellished in the 50k-100k bass energy. It also lacks deep deep low depth clarity that you find in more expensive headphones. But I'm not expecting that type of performance out of these. Where it excels beyond its price point is mids and treble. Its warm and pleasant, with a lot of detail. If there is harshness in the mix you'll know about it. Their might be a slight mid scoop going on but its very subtle if there is. The sound stage is not super wide and not super close. I would say way its more spacious up and down than it is wide. That might be my favorite part of these is that sonic elements feel layered distinctly from top to bottom if the song is mixed right. Its really nice.
