Ive got a Roland electronic drum set, so I was reading reviews on different headphones before making a decision to buy. The reviews on Amazon were excellent so I purchased the headphones. When they arrived I was excited to plug them into the drum module.I must say, I was more than disappointed. The sound quality was far from the reviews that i read. Every kit thats installed in this module sounded terrible. I was hoping Id be writing a good review. Every single sound had a static sound and the kick drum sounds were aweful. I had a cheaper brand set of headphones that was using that sound much better and arent even meant for electronic drums but yet there was such drastic sound difference. I was hoping to write a good review but Id be lying. The only thing i liked about these is the sound isolation. Other than that, these headphones performed poorly. I give them one star for sound great sound isolation.

I've used in-ear and headphone monitors for over twenty years as a working drummer. The benefits are obvious: You can hear exactly what you need, at a safer volume, without simultaneously exposing yourself to the high volume of your own instrument. For a long time, quality close-hear monitoring has been really expensive and inaccessible to budget-minded musicians. If you were paying under $100 for in-ear monitors or isolation headphones, you were sacrificing something - true isolation, sound quality, or build quality - and often all of these. Now there are a lot of options in the $50-100 price range offering superior quality even compared to more expensive offerings from as little as five years ago.Case in point: these Superlux HD667 headphones. For most of my isolation headphone needs behind the drums over the past several years, I've used Vic Firth stereo isolation headphones. They work, but I really need to tinker with the EQ and levels to get what I need, and they are still very heavy on mids without much detail on the high and low ends. I had never heard of Superlux as a brand, let alone their monitoring headphones, but having an extra set of studio cans is never a bad thing, and the price was pretty decent. The reviews I found compared them favorably to most budget headphones. I was skeptical, as these feature 40mm drivers compared to the VF's 50mm drivers. But I ordered a pair and here we are today.The headphones come with a carry bag, a 2-meter cord with integrated volume, and a 1/4" stereo adapter. All good features and handy for working musicians. The earpieces and headband have a very thick foam cushion, and the fit is firm - VERY firm. You will read many reviews complaining about how tight these headphones are. Tight headphones isolate well. Loose ones do not. This is a feature, not a bug. And the isolation is world class. I just played a one-hour worship practice and 40-minute actual worship set at full volume, and if my drums weren't miked and in the mix I would not have heard them. These headphones do get warm, but again, there's very few isolating headphones that don't.As for the sound? Well, I'm not going back to the VF headphones. These have such a clearer sound picture with full response across the spectrum. They almost sound scooped (in other words, fewer mids, more bass and treble). It really added to my performance and ability to hear the rest of the band. I can definitely see myself using these for listening to mixdowns in the studio as well.I can't believe these headphones are this price. I unreservedly recommend them for musicians and studio techs who need good isolation, great sound and don't have huge chunks of change to burn.

You probably know most of us musicians don’t make the slew of money those famous pop stars do so we’re always looking for ways to save some money on studio equipment (and spend those savings on more beer).These headphones are built like a tank but are lightweight and very comfortable to wear for long periods. They sit tight against your ears and will block out most low volume ambient noise while you’re recording but you’ll still hear the fire engines. They have a good frequency response for the price and are perfectly fine for any recording project where ear isolation is needed. While they’re geared towards drummers, any musician or vocalist will find them useful in the studio.Two quibbles: there is an individual volume control for the phones like those on some consumer products. I don’t think it belongs in the signal path for recording equipment and it’s just one more thing to possibly break while you’re recording. Mildly annoying, the headphones are not marked Left or Right so you’re left to guess which is which. My audio source didn’t have a balance control but my pro headphones have the cord on the Left side, so I went with that.While you can’t compare these to $300 professional grade headphones, these things are a real deal for the budget minded musician and they are sure to make most folks pretty happy in the studio. Recommended.

Excellent for drumming or anything else that you need to isolate outside sound. These are virtually spundproof. Comfortable. The included cable is excellent. And they sound great
