The Sony MDR7506 Folding Professional Closed Ear Headphones Bundle with Stereo Headphone Amplifier is a great value for the price. It includes the Sony MDR7506 headphones, which have neodymium magnets and 40mm drivers for powerful, detailed sound. The closed-ear design provides comfort and outstanding reduction of external noises. The bundle also includes a compact 4-channel stereo headphone amplifier with DC 12V power adapter and 1/8 to 1/4 inch stereo AUX adapter (5-pack). Users have noted that the headphones are accurate for studio use, but lack a defined bottom end. They are great for sound monitoring and voice over work, but not ideal for recreational music listening. The Knox Gear headphone amplifier works well, but has a thinner sound than going direct and no power switch. Users appreciate the comfortable design of the headphones, as well as their foldability for storage or travel in the provided soft case.
