Closed back headphones for recording

roundthebend · November 2022

I'm setting up my home office to let me capture some ideas and demos. I think I need some closed back headphones so I can listen and sing without the playback bleeding into the mic.

Budget <£75

Obviously not looking for anything amazing. I guess most important is keeping the sound in, followed by comfort, then audio quality.

Sennheiser 280 pro are pretty cheap and reliable.

I have the Audio Technica ATH-M30x, pretty decent and bang on your budget.

Sonys Mentioned above are great for what you’re wanting.

You'd probably get B-Stock Beyer DT770 for that.

I've recently got some and I'm very pleased with them - they seem very close in sound to my Yamaha monitors. A great advantage for my set up.

If you can get DT770s with the soft pads they are very comfortable and have decent isolation

DT770 ended the closed-back headphones debate for me. Just as the DT990 ended the open-back headphones debate for me

£110 ends the debate on DT770 for me
