I'd been having problems with drummers and headphones for years. The headphones would fall off drummer's heads, they would bleed too much click track into the mics, and their output wouldn't be loud...
Metrophones Isolation Headphones feature heavy- duty earmuffs with Koss speakers inside. There are three models: Studio Kans (without metronome); Metrophones (built-in analog metronome); and...
These self-powered monitors are meant for use with a computer workstation, edit suite, or small control room. It took me a little while to appreciate what that meant - but once I did, I found the...

Easily the most surgical speakers I have ever heard. A good analogy would be that if the Meyer HD-1 were 16 bit these are 24. Flat within 2 dB from 40 Hz all the way up to 40 kHz with a low frequency...
