Reviews Here: Review Page
A studio staple for many years now,
the 7506 remains a popular choice for tracking headphones. The padded ear cups
are comfortable and the adjustable headband will accommodate virtually any
head. There is a choice between 1/8” and ¼” (with included gold adapter) and
the cable is the coiled type (I’m not a huge fan of coiled cables, kind of a
waste of length!).
I find the 7506 headphones to be
bright. I think that’s what a lot of people maybe like about them, aside from
the fact that they gained their popularity when there was maybe 3% of the
headphone choices to be made that we have now, when they were first released.
The accented top end can be fine short term, some find them fatiguing after
long periods and I am in that category as well. Being that they are an industry
standard of sorts, having a pair in a busy, working studio can make a lot of
sense.
Conclusion: Too bright for me, but
people need different things out of headphones. Still a good seller due to
their industry standard status, you can never go “wrong” with the 7506 but I
prefer other brands over Sony when it comes to headphone choice.
