The 40 mm dynamic driver with a neodymium magnet and PET diaphragm plays from 10 Hz to 20 kHz. The closed ear cups keep the monitoring separate from the room, whether you record in the studio or on location.

The ear cups fold inwards, so the headphones take up little space in a bag. A carrying pouch is included for storage.
The coiled cable is approx. 1.2 m long and extends to about 3 m. The gold-plated 3.5 mm plug comes with a 6.3 mm adaptor, so the headphones connect to a camera, a recorder or a studio desk.
The PET diaphragm and neodymium magnet give the driver performance beyond the demands of digital recording. With 1,000 mW power handling it also copes with a strong studio amplifier.
A sensitivity of 106 dB/mW means the headphones play loud even from the headphone output of a camera or a portable recorder.
Weight without the cable. The headphones are built to be worn for long stretches in broadcast, on set and in the edit.
The earpads are a spare part — worn ones are swapped and the headphones stay in service.
