Headphones & Headphone Amplifiers

Headphones and headphone amplifiers let engineers, musicians and listeners hear detail without the influence of a room. Closed-back headphones isolate sound for tracking and live monitoring, open-back headphones offer a more natural presentation for mixing and listening, and headphone amplifiers drive one or several sets of headphones at the right level.

This category covers studio headphones, in-ear monitors, multichannel headphone distribution amplifiers, personal monitor mixers and high-end headphone amplifiers, along with software for headphone monitoring. Together they cover everything from a single critical-listening setup to a full band in the recording room.

Headphones & Headphone Amplifiers: questions and answers

Should I choose open-back or closed-back headphones?

Closed-back headphones isolate sound, which suits recording and monitoring. Open-back headphones sound more natural and spacious, which suits mixing and listening in a quiet room.

Why do I need a headphone amplifier?

A headphone amplifier provides enough power for demanding headphones and lets several people listen at the same time with their own level controls.

Can I mix on headphones?

Yes, many engineers use headphones to check detail, but it is good practice to also check mixes on studio monitors, as headphones present stereo differently.
