I find it as the ideal web cam. Has a magnetic base so it just sticks to my monitor and able to move around as needed. Quality is actually better than expected.

I hear you on the tube taking a back seat. Today I am doing some A-B’ing between my MAD tube amp and my V220 Violectric. Both are great for efficient headphones, but I think the Violectric sounds much fuller. The tubes do something fun with the sound, but the Vio sounds full with solid bass.
The Violectric just seems to do everything well. I can certainly see the V281 as a one size fits all unit.

whoa, zeos just did a video of those and he really liked it. doesnt tell you much though, he kinda likes everything. but how do they sound? are they dark, warm, v shaped, neutral, balanced?

Zeos did a review on the Sony MDR-CD900st (2010s), believe it or not, a newer headphone. The MDR-V6 (1985) is the very first in Sony’s MDR series, originally made in Japan, these are a fan favorite, mine are a later revision when they moved production to Thailand. They have a distinctly V-shaped sound signature. The MDR-7506 (1991) and other later revisions were made to bring up the mids and make them more true Studio Monitors, by request from studios. The MDR-V6 were my very first audiophile headphones.

Lol sorry for the hair

My cousin still uses his MDR-V6’s off of my recommendation. About 8 years now, I think.

I finally through the old ear pads for mine away, the dissolved after about 6 years of use. I just put my old Shure pads from my T50rp from before I had them converted to Aragon’s on them, surprisingly they work well on the MDR-V6.

Please stop being the creepiest person on the forum. Time to add you to the ignore again.

We are always fighting you and me Dago. Lets be friends. I like you :nerd_face:

Sounds cool! i’m really tempted to get a pair

The Sony MDR1AM2 seems to be a popular most affordable version of the MDR series currently in production. unless you wanna go on ear. and judging from the Frequency response its V shaped. I bought a Sony headphone once and was burned. it turned out to be dark. just dont want to make that mistake again. i dont like dark headphones

They are not worth the current price, I bought mine new and in box for $50, and I saw the 7506 for the same price around the, now they’re almost $300.

If you can go to Japan, you can still find made in Japan versions there.

I fucking love my 7506s. Glad to see someone else started with them as well. 11/10.

7506…dark?

I started with the MDR-V6, not the 7506.
