October 15, 201312 yr Hi, I'm new to this forum and would like some advice on getting a pair of budget headphones for a recording studio. I would like to use them for recording vocals mainly and it's important that the headphones are able to prevent a lot of sound leaking into the microphone. Ideally I would like the headphones to have a replaceable lead and be comfortable and pretty decent sounding. My budget is £50 max. I have done a reasonable amount of searching online over the past few days and have narrowed my choices down to Monoprice 8323 - £15 Superlux HD669 - £24 Superlux HD661 - £24 Superlux HD631 DJ - £36 Which of these prevents sound leakage most effectively? I have been using a pair of old Sennheiser EH2200's until they recently died after 10 years of serious use. My other headphones are a pair of Beyer DT880 pro's which I use for mixing and absolutely love!! Which of these would you recommend for mainly recording vocals, guitar and bass in a studio? Thanks
October 15, 201312 yr http://www.head-fi.org http://www.gearslutz.org http://www.changstar.com http://www.lemonparty.org Try one of those websites. This one isn't the one you're looking for.
October 15, 201312 yr I got some replacement earpads from lemonparty, they're soft and squishy. Recommended! Especially if you like directly-heated triodes.
October 15, 201312 yr Wow, if you're going to copy and past your post from head-fi, at least have the decency to paste it properly without the head-fi formatting.
October 16, 201312 yr Wow, if you're going to copy and past your post from head-fi, at least have the decency to paste it properly without the head-fi formatting. Totally my first thought. Paste that shit into a simple text document and then paste here (where it will then be lambasted.) It makes one look more sincere and less spammy. Oh, and first with the JH13 rec! Booyah, suckas!

In chrome at least, ctrl-shift-v will automatically strip formatting when pasting; don't know about the other browsers
