Review on V MODA M 200 Professional Studio Headphone by Andrew Pierceson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Know what you're getting

So let me start by saying they're built the same as all other vmoda headphones. So if you bought them before you know you're getting them but if not they're built like tanks, mainly metal construction and leather material for the headband, it reminded me of what a car seat feels like, but a little more rubbery, the covers are solid metal, seems like they'll last a while and only the plastic on the earcups is on the shells themselves, and they've added an interesting feature: the earpads are fully magnetic and easier to remove than previous models . They also come with two cables, one with the mic and one without, both are very high quality and honestly don't get tangled that easily since I've used them and I have a feeling they will last as long as the headphones. The body is V Moda style but a little less like an alien exoskeleton, in my opinion it still has that look, don't get me wrong, but I'd say more subdued. sound quality. Now obviously the most important part of the set is sounding out and playing live on this label of studio headphones. I've used a lot of headphones from Sony, Bose and pretty much everything in between in my life. They're flat, and by flat I mean they haven't improved anything, they're colorless and leave nothing to the imagination like good studio headphones should. Now don't buy these to play mp3 songs as they sound harsh and cluttered and just really annoying if you want to get them you need to run flac wave or uncompressed formats of these styles they work well with like Tides and other hi-res streams, but don't expect Pandora to sound like a studio. I've put them through intense testing and songs and have yet to find a genre they can't handle and for people who say they lack bass I'd say no it's not forward like I said that nothing is improved but on the uncompressed song I ran that had a lot of that and had a very deep and solid continuation down to the low frequencies but still not too heavy and without seeping into anything and everything where it should be. So should you buy them? Whether you've got the time and uncompressed songs, or need a set of unrelenting headphones for editing or studio use, these are absolutely perfect for those categories and definitely have their weight to justify the price.

Pros
  • There's something in this one
Cons
  • Minor issues
