Philips SHP9500/00 Headphone Black

Product Information

That is to say, for example, because the soundstage is relatively large, and the imaging exact, if one instrument is placed at a certain location throughout the track, it will stay there and make you feel it.

Its transparency and honesty bode very well for studio work, allowing you to easily find flaws in a mix.

I can’t remember a time when I’ve ever felt like they hurt my head or I had to take a break from wearing them. These are pretty sibilant headphones, you most likely won’t care if you aren’t new to treble-heavy headphones. The good news is that the SHP9600 uses 50mm Neodymium dynamic drivers and carries a 32-ohm impedance making them acceptable to use with both headphones and laptops.

They have low impedance and you won’t get enough volume when using them with a PC, laptop, or smartphone.Also, if you are planning to wear these headphones while working out or running, we suggest you look for headphones that are more stable. While I can’t see this being what some people define other headphones as being staged “like a studio”, it feels like it is more like a spherical terrarium of music, in which sources and sounds can freely move, with more concise attention towards the left and right sides. The padding here is enough for my preference – I don’t make contact with the driver wall and the clamping force is pretty light. Additional note: One time have I heard this on the S’s of a rap song as of now, but this does not seem to be a frequent case at all.

As a counter-example for the lack of sub-bass, although light, it can still be heard, as in the track “Fracture Ray” (0:00-0:27) where very light featherings of sub-bass is present and the headphones can deliver them. And especially at the end of the song where the very computer-like sounds of what I can only place to be a synth enters, the true extents of the width is shown. That is to say, while I lack the experience to attest to this personally, the consensus seems to be that high-end headphones beat these by a mile when it comes to technicalities, while I personally found them to be quite past satisfactory.It’s just another one of the many reasons why these headphones will always be valuable to me in some form or fashion.
