Need good Musis production headphones help!

[Mylestec]

Im a dubstep/electronica/etc music producer and need some good headphones

anyone can help?
since its black friday, i need to get them now!

i had sony mdr-v6 but they were crap!

eh... I've been producing (remixes, edits, ect.) for more than a year on 15 year old MDR-7506 phones which are very close to the V6's.. I use these for all of my initial sound design and tracking. I then use multiple pairs of monitors for the mix-down phase.

My recommendation... if you don't have any decent headphones, and by decent I mean anything that produces the full frequency range 30/35hz - 18/20khz, then this should be your first priority... I would buy the 7506's again without a second thought as they have gone through 15 years of DJing with only minor repairs. That said, if you have a decent pair of phones, then keep 'em and get yourself a decent pair of monitors with a flat response curve... Since you're producing bass heavy music, you will want a pair that has decent bass response with a flat response curve.

Hope this helps

I'll agree with the other people here. The cans you have are known for being anything but crap. I think you got scammed. Get some flat response monitors. Once you finish your tracks, test them out in a car with a good system... That's a tried and true way hip hop producers have been checking tracks for years.

How do you know, you don't have a real set of V6's, the fakes do NOT feel like the real thing ? .. I use mine for 8hrs + without any discomfort.

Can't you find them yourself? You're on the net, it's not hard.
Just might be a bit more money than you were expecting.

IDK how this thread got to this point…everyone's head is different. I like my mdr-7506 (same as mdr-v6) just fine…but I could see how they'd get uncomfortable if you like different things.

I remember a lot of people recommending sennheiser HD-280Pros when I was shopping last time, and when I tried a pair…they got annoying after about 30 seconds. That doesn't mean they suck…that means they suck for me.

well honestly, i liked the mdrv6's (fake or not)
BUT the pads did get a little uncomfortable after an hour or so and the right side was a little weird sounding, so if they were fake that sucks

and im willing to give the real v6's another try, because they are perfect for the music that i make, i just need a real link to purchase them via ebay/wherever

i just cant find the right pair because i bought fakes and i have no idea whats real and whats not
