With the Aiaiai TMA-2 Studio XE, the Danes have launched the next generation of the studio version of their modular system headphones. In contrast to the TMA-2 Studio, the XE version has a different headband and as well as different ear pads. Here, we carry out a soundcheck.
If you can't use your favourite wired headphones on the go due to the lack of ports on your smartphone, the Violectric Chronos provides a high-quality mobile amplification solution.
The Ultrasone Signature Master from the Bavarian manufacturer Ultrasone are high-quality mixing and mastering headphones with very good handling. For just under 1,000 euros, you get a pair of headphones that can be used in a variety of ways, with high-resolution and a unique sound profile.
With this update of the AIAIAI TMA-2 Studio, the manufacturer once again does everything right: The wearing comfort of these updated over-ears gives no cause for criticism and the new S05MKII driver capsule ensures a modern bass range. The new TMA-2 Studio also handles the mids and highs with aplomb.
First-class workmanship, superb wearing comfort and excellent sound. Although you'll have to dig deep into your pocket for the 64 Audio U6t, you'll get a professional IEM headphone with an all-round genre recommendation and genuine monitoring qualities.
The new Beyerdynamic DT 700 Pro X are analytical closed headphones. Their modern over-ear design is well-made and comfortable to wear. In addition to a restrained bass range, open trebles and cool, differentiated mids characterise the sound of this model. Guitar music, in particular, benefits from this. Thanks to their good damping values, these studio headphones are ideal for use when recording but also for mixing and editing on the move.
The new Beyerdynamic DT 900 Pro X are over-ear headphones that offer great sonic transparency. They deliver a treble-emphasised signal, which in the mids sounds rather cold and sober and unobtrusive in the basses. These open headphones are particularly suitable as a means of isolating subtle nuances in sound in audio processing and mixing. The DT 900 Pro X Sound also offer purists and hi-fi fans a good headphone for classical, jazz and other acoustic music.
Are the new Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT2 the company's best Bluetooth over-ears to date? Maybe! Audio-Technica has done just about everything right with the M50xBT2. They sit comfortable and stable and offer a very long-lasting battery. Also they come with high-resolution audio, multi-pairing and extensive personalisation options via the app.
The FH5s in-ear monitors from Chinese manufacturer FiiO are a hybrid quad-driver system that has an integrated sound control in the form of three separate switches for the bass, mid-range and treble for individual adjustment to your own listening habits.
Professional in-ear headphones for use on stage have to cope with a tough daily routine. Nevertheless, comparatively delicate devices such as in-ear headphones are necessary because their discreet appearance does not distract from the performance and allows for increased freedom of movement on stage. In addition, such solutions need to sound as convincing as possible and be capable of playing at a high output volume. Does the Audix A10X accomplish these tasks?
