The Korena take

NDH 30 is an open-back, circumaural studio headphone made for critical mixing, mastering, and detailed editing. Its presentation centers on detail resolution, a linear soundstage, precise stereo imaging, sharp localization, and transient response. Neumann developed it as a transportable reference that can support work begun at home or on the road before it continues on a calibrated Neumann loudspeaker system. Long-term comfort also makes extended precision-editing sessions part of its intended use.
