Audio-Technica SonicPro ATH-AVC400
The 53mm drivers and bass-reflex port deliver robust low-end reproduction, while the closed-back design and 105dB sensitivity provide the isolation needed for detailed monitoring. Supreme comfort from the contoured earpads and self-adjusting headband makes these a durable, long-session workhorse at a budget-friendly price. These headphones are best for aspiring musicians and podcasters who need reliable, flat-response monitoring for tracking and mixing without breaking the bank.
