If you're serious about your music making, then you need a decent pair of monitoring headphones, and Yamaha is here to help
Yamaha has announced a new addition to
its headphone range in the form of the MPH-MT7's. The headphones have
been designed to give the flattest possible response so you can hear
what your tunes actually sound like, while also offering excellent
isolation from sounds around you.
The HPH-MT7 headphones have at their
heart custom 40mm drivers equipped with CCAW voice coils and powerful
neodymium magnets. Built from copper-coated aluminium wire, these
drivers have an impressive frequency response, from a
stomach-churning 15Hz all the way up to 25Hz. Each is encased within
a sturdy ABS housing in a closed-back, cirumaural design, which sits
on a die-cast aluminium headband with sweat-resistant padding while
your ears are cosseted by synthetic leather ear pads with
low-resistance cushioning that reduce sound leakage. There's a pivot
arm, too, so you can flip the cans for single-ear monitoring if you
want to.
Yamaha Pro Audio's Ken Hiraoka said:
“The HPH-MT7 studio monitor headphones exemplify the sound
philosophy that we have pursued consistently since Yamaha first
produced the industry-standard NS-10M monitor speakers. We set out to
make headphones with superior fidelity along with a high level of
comfort, durability and versatility, to accommodate a wide range of
monitoring applications.
The HPH-MT7's are due to start shipping
in January, priced around £200.
