    Which headphones more suited to making beats?

    They must have a good sound, and preferably be light and not expensive.
    Maybe some of you have used something similar:)
    All suggestions will be much appreciated!

    • Sony MDR 7510fruitsalad
    • They are detailed, clear, balanced. Make anything else sound like mud.fruitsalad
    • Sennheiser HD650 are the best headphones I've ever used for making music. The lower end ones in that list will fatigue your ears much faster.section_014
    • using DT770s simply because they're so fucking comfortable, can wear them for hours but prefer the sound of my Grado SR-80s i'd say large, open back likekingsteven
    • those HD650s would be perfect (as long as you're not planning on tracking vocals)kingsteven
    • Beenusing Bose QC20i with a Lofelt Basslet recently. F*cking awesome in a silent bubble of perfect sound anywhere.microkorg
    • get some monitors.. forget headphones.autoflavour
    • ^ monitors are usually frowned upon when you try to set them up in a cafe, in a park or on a plane though so bear that in mind.microkorg
    • TBH if we're going there you kinda need at least 2 sets of speakers and 2 pairs headphones :-Dkingsteven
    • @kingsteven Curious: What about if tracking vocals, but also beat makin'? (soy puro iPhone Apps y Focusrite).BrokenHD
    • open back headphones will typically give a better sound but they leak like fuck, not good for tracking or public transport ;-)kingsteven
    • ahh yes ;) thxBrokenHD
