I recently purchased a set of Sony MDR-7509 pro headphones and they sound fantastic. With these headphones, you hear things in the music that you have never heard before. from Bhphotovideo.com The audio is sharp and clean. Basses are fat and warm without distortion. You can really feel the difference in frequency response when you compare the unit with other brands out there or previous Sony pro and semi-pro headphones. The aural sensation approaches the one you get with good, flat response monitors. from Bhphotovideo.com I recently purchased a set of Sony MDR-7509 professional headphones and I am completely blown away with their performance!I compared them to a set of Bose headphones and although the Bose sounded good,the Sony sounded great. The Sony let you hear parts of a piece of music that didn't exist before. from Bhphotovideo.com I was replacing my battle worn 7506's and was concerned about paying twice as much. I read all the reviews I could find and even asked an engineer friend of mine, he recommended these. I've owned Bose and Sennheiser that were both over $300 these Sony's blow them away. It's like I'm wearing studio monitors on my ears. from Bhphotovideo.com I have been a happy user of sony mdr-v6 (twice since mid 80's) and sony mdr-7506 (twice again). thought I'd "step up" to the 7509hd headphones and was disappointed. from Amazon.com Mostly plastic. I use the 7509's when mowing the lawn - the 7506's for critical work. Sony got the 7506 right the first time and have not screwed them up over the years (much more comfortable than Grados by the way). Save your $$ buy the MDR-7506. from Amazon.com Ok so when I saw the Mdr 7509 had been redesigned I got all antsy about what I was missing. So when recently buying more cans for studio and CHiPOD use I looked into a few pairs of MDR-7505 phones. The salesman also had some very well priced new MDR-7509HD sets which I picked up on a pure whim. So I get home and break out the 7505 sets to compare and start with the let down... from Amazon.com Ok so when I saw the Mdr 7509 had been redesigned I got all antsy about what I was missing.

My all time favorite were the 7506 model, but I made the mistake of letting an amateur DJ at a corporate party use them and he somehow managed to blow out one of the sides. from Amazon.com No complaints what-so-ever. Wanted Beyerdynamics with fuzzy ear muffs, but due to their high impedence I decided on the MDR7509HD instead -- have you checked the price of good headphone amps!!! With these excellent sounding Sony cans, no amp needed. from Amazon.com
