I have a home studio and I need some new, good-quality, studio headphones for recording and mixing that are under $110. What kind of studio headphones, specifically, are good for recording and mixing? I am mostly recording and mixing hip hop, soul, and r&b tracks.

I need names, types, and prices of the headphones. Also, leave reasons why I should get the headphones (pros and cons).



Answer
If REAL quality is an issue, you should stick to REPUTABLE brands only such as B&W, Sennheiser (most affordable), Shure, Grado, Denon, AKG, Audio-Technica (NOT to be mixed with Technic which is utter rubbish as well!), Etymotic or Beyerdynamic. Things like V-Moda, Klipsch, Sony, Panasonic, JVC and Philips are ONLY "okay-ish" indeed. Please do NOT fall a victim to FASHION ACCESSORIES by buying Boombox, Ministry of Sound, Sol/Republic/Revolution, Noontec Zoro's, Benetton, a-jays, iFrogz, Marley, Fanny Wang, Razer, Karl Kani, WESC, Turtle, JH, Dr.Dre/Beats/Solo, Ludacris/Soul, Koss, Skullcandy, Lady GaGa, Skullcrushers, Monsters nor Bose, because they are ALL seriously overhyped and overpriced "fashion blingbling gimmicks" with a very poor durability and sound quality, NOTHING else (and those who try to claim they are good do NOT know ANYTHING about QUALITY anyway!), BE THEM FAKE OR NOT!

Also, please do NOT focus on the thumping bass that just distorts everything else, instead go for GOOD audio quality IN GENERAL

I want to do some song covers or something just for fun on youtube with my friends. I see some people use headphones when they record. What exactly are they used for and what kind of headphones are they?


Answer
I use skull candy headphones. They are big, but the sound is pretty amazing. Some people need to hear thier voice back when they are recording, if you have a mic and a guitar plugged into a recording aparatus you can have it playing in your headphones and hear how it sounds.
