Review on 🎧 Sony CD900ST Studio Monitor Headphones - Professional Stereo Headphones by Sharon Hill

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I bought it out of nostalgia and I really liked it.

I chose the MDR-CD900ST because they looked a bit like the Sony DR-S3 (my only in-ear headphones from the 80's to the last few years), I didn't once know if it was good or not good. There must be good reasons why this product is one of the rare models from Japan. One of them has to be the sound signature "Clear Background" which I heard in an old Sony model I happen to own. I ended up really liking it for my purpose of using it for the casual audiophile. The sound is fantastic when paired with high powered EQ amps as it adds no coloration to the sound produced by the amp. I found it lacking when plugged directly into a computer or cellphone, and too quiet due to the linear-sounding audiophile amps.

Pros
  • Solid workmanship
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
