The Sound Professionals HP-1 Headphones

A good pair of closed-back, well-isolating headphones is a must for any studio, and the HP-1 Headphones from The Sound Professionals check most of the boxes you’ll need from a production, and performance, workhorse. The high-quality, leather-esque ear cups with a finish that matches the headband ensure that the HP-1s are comfortable to wear and ready for years of studio rigor. To add to that durability, this package comes with two detachable cables—one coiled, one straight—meaning you can both customize the lead for your setup and you can replace the cables if either one ever fails. On the inside, you’ll find a pair of 40-millimeter neodymium dynamic drivers for oomph and punch; and with a frequency spectrum that reaches down into the 10-hertz range, there’s plenty of body and clarity in the bass range as well. Copper-clad wiring inside the headphones and gold-plated jacks at the input points ensure that your signal is carried with steadfast transmission, while an included quarter-inch screw-on and a high-quality carrying case set you up for success in any studio.
