What matters in use
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01
Easier to drive than the 250 ohm version. Runs loud from an interface headphone jack, a laptop or a phone.
Detail 02
Sound stays inside the cups instead of leaking into a microphone. Makes these usable for tracking, unlike open-back designs.
Detail 03
Blocks a fair amount of room noise and click bleed, but nowhere near active noise cancelling levels.
Detail 04
Fixed, single-sided, not detachable. Long enough to reach a live room, awkward on a desk or on the move.
Detail 05
Pads wear out first on any headphone. These swap out, so the set survives years of use.
Detail 06
Moderate weight. The padded spring steel headband spreads it, and the roughly 3.5 N clamp is light for a closed-back.
Final check

Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
Take 80 ohm if you plug into an interface, laptop or portable recorder. Take 250 ohm only if you have a dedicated headphone amp with real voltage swing.
No. At 80 ohms with 96 dB sensitivity, most audio interfaces and even laptops drive them to full volume.
For editing, tracking and checking details, yes. The frequency response is not flat, so check mixes on monitors or a reference headphone before committing.
Closed-back with about 18 dB isolation, so bleed is low at sane monitoring levels. Loud click tracks can still get picked up by a sensitive condenser.
