Customers have asked us for years: I have XX euros, what are the best production/mixing/mastering headphones you can recommend? This article will try to answer that question and help you find the best tool for your task and budget in a simple, straightforward manner. While all these models sound great when used with SoundID Reference, that doesn’t necessarily mean that they are good on their own.
