New 'Phones

[Leonard Smalls]

I've tended to do my home mixing with mainly AKG K240 headphones and Adam A8 monitors.

But recently felt the need for some closed back phones to record vox and the like. So I did a bit of research and came up with RØDE NTH-100.

I bought some, and now I may have to relegate the AKGs to secondary, and the Adams just for checking a mix.

They're awesome - for £109 they do everything a 'phone should, they're nearly as good as AKG K872s at a tenth of the price!

As did I, but I returned them. I could never get a signal; I didn't have this problem with my previous Sony Ericsson, with Orange as provider. The SIM kept falling out, too.

My oldest boy has a pair and he let me use them for the day, I was quite impressed. I'm actually contemplating getting myself a pair.

The online reviews are always pretty good when it comes to the sound quality of the *'Phones*.

 

My boy also has the RØDE NTH-Mic attachment that plugs into one of the two sockets on the phones. That is very good quality as well.

He uses that for just about everything he does online. I think he paid just under £50 for the mic.
