REVERSE UNBOXING OF THE X1
BAD MONITORRING STEALS YOUR GRAMMY
"Life is too short to spend it wearing cheap plastic injection molded headphones on your head pretending you're well equipped for success."
All parts are exchangeable using home tools and available in the webstore.
When it's time, you can easily replace worn out parts of the X1 right at home. No special skills needed – anyone can handle it.
Plug them in, put them on, and hit play. Share with your colleagues quickly without needing to adjust the headband.
Custom made low impedance drivers play loud on just about any device.
Complete instructions for setting up K-metering with the X1 studio headphones can be found in the secure login area once you've made your purchase.
HOW DO THEY SOUND?
Explore how the X1 compare to the other popular studio headphones in a full report including IEC 60318-1 & 4 ear simulator standards. We measured: X1 USC II, S5X 1.1. USC I, S4X 1.3. USC I, K712, LCD1, LCD X, LCD MM 100, LCD MM 500, DT 1990, CLEAR PRO, NDH30, HD650, HD560S.
Ambient bleed/music isolation
Closed-back design keeps every take clean - no bleed, no clicks, no excuses.
The -10dBSPL* isolation is cutting the external sound volume by half!
Keeping the backing track and click out of the microphone is difficult when the artist needs high playback volume to feel the groove. The R1 isolation keeps the click track and percussive elements out of the mic as much as possible. Take a listen to hear the bleed from the X1 open-back headphones and compare it with the R1 closed-back headphones.
