The sound is really very stunning, I actually took my head phones off for a while, to make sure my neighbors couldn't hear the wonderful sound. Of course, my neighbors couldn't hear me, I had head phones on, but that's how fantastic the sound it with these headphones.

Great Product.

Bought my last pair in 2006 and they lasted me until 2011. I, myself chewed through the cord while mixing on them (mixing habbit) and instead of getting them repaired I just decided to order new ones. I now chew gum when mixing in these.

Good value, will last years!

Love everything about these headphones with one exception, the folding ear cups make it harder to put on headphones. They sound great and are comfortable to wear for hours at a time.

The Sony MDR-7506 headphones are used as monitoring headphones for field video productions, and are pretty much the industry standard for field production. Quality sound although rather bulky. The fact that they collapse and comes with its own carrying case makes it easy to pack them for the road.

Sony MDR-7506 are a reliable reference for professional audio monitoring. I've been using them in my studio both in the control room and recording booth for years, and have added new sets to the ones that keep on delivering. I have come to count on their consistency and accuracy, and know that other professionals can count on their results as well.

These are the only headphones I will use. It's gotta be the SONY-MDR 7506's or nothing else. They are built to take the punishment of day to day use by a radio person. That's what I do. Highly recommend these...and the price here at B&H is the lowest I've ever paid for a pair!

I use these to listen to music at work. they isolate your music very well, so at high volumes they block the sound getting out very well. They are clean, the bass is nice and deep. i got a c-moy amp and the sound is improved much. I'm quite happy with these.

Durable and reliable, the Monitor Headphone by Sony is indispensable. We use it to monitor sound recording in the field. Perhaps a little bulky and a little heavy -- it can be cumbersome when you are shooting on the fly. But the quality of the product more than makes up for these minor issues.

Sony released a couple new models to surpass the quality of the 7506, and reviews have been lukewarm. At $ these are a bargain and are far better than any $300 Beats headset.They are still the standard with most of us pro film sound recordists.

I personally have never heard headphones quite this good, delivering clear and transparent sound. Frankly, the best word to describe the quality is thrilling. They create almost a dimension in sound. By comparison, the Bose noise-cancelling headphones sound muddy.
