Superlux HD681 Studio Monitoring Headphones

Audio headphones

By: Andrew on 1 December 2020

After looking for suitable and suitably priced headphones that I could use to practice guitar without ticking off the neighbours, I decided on these. I find them comfortable to wear for the longer periods of practice and the sound is fine.

Superlux HD681 - Really Super

By: Cesare on 17 November 2020

I purchased these from Artist Guitars a few weeks back for use as monitoring cans in a radio studio. I am impressed with the sound quality which has a good amount of bass but not overwhelming. Vocals are very clear and there is little if any sibilance. The HD681s are comfortable to wear for a few hours without your ears getting too warm and are quite light, yet they seem well made and look and feel more expensive than they are. There is a good amount of adjustment in the headband and the cord, at 2 metres or so, is plenty long enough when sitting at a console. All in all, they look, feel and sound great and are a good buy.

these head phones are a lot like mono-price retro in sound, big fun bass,( bass head heaven), but you have to change the pads they are like rocks its softer with out them, they are so bad i gave them to my kids to play quoits with, but if you do two things to them they go from original form rubbish to modded gold. get brainwavz XL pads hybrid $39 same cost as headphones i know but well and truly worth it as you will hear, easy to fit and perfect fit, also put the padding that comes with the ear pads behind new ear pads it quells the sibilant highs, then you will have one of the best sounding headphones under $200 dollars i have modded lots of headphones, and this one is one of the best for sound changes, and comfort ever, also you can lighten the clamping force a bit just bend the headband up a touch. 5 stars for value 4,5 stars for sound 5 stars for super quick delivery and service, 0 stars for comfort and 6 stars after modded.happy listening.

Wicked value!

By: Daniel on 2 September 2020

I was curious when I purchased these cans, and boy was I rewarded! They're a great cheap solution for monitoring mixes and for use when dubbing tracks over, does the job and leaves the wallet grinning.

Wow. Just WOW

By: Zac on 16 August 2020

I bought these as a present for my sibling and picked up a pair for myself too because well they are $39... Oh my god these are legitimately amazing sounding! My Audio-technica ATH-M20x headphones do not have the range these do. It is extremely rich sounding and brought a whole extra dimension to my music files. The low ends are balanced, the high ends have extra depth to them. These are seriously worth 4x the price for the audio quality. Just... wow 100% recommend for pleasure listening and referencing. I have just put them on my head and just... they are so good!

JUST BUY IT..DON'T THINK FURTHER

JUST BUY IT...DON'T THINK FURTHER By: Pramod Vittal on 3 July 2020 ( already posted on 3/7/20 but re submitting with a few minor changes ..) AMAZING Value for 39 bucks. Cannot get any better. Just buy it ! They are bright, clear & unbelievable value for the price.There is a sea of overanalysed opinions about these set of cans on the net...some people say it's too sharp.... but hey !... one can find faults even with a two thousand dollar pair of head phones. On an average these headphones are clear ,bright and perform better in many categories than cans costing 5 - 10 times the price . They have amazing sound stage. With any form of listening or monitoring - the listener's taste quiet subjective. Mainly it depends on the sound mix,your type of audio file (sampling rates) ,the standard of recording, the mastering, the type of music player or amps being to used to plug these set of headphones into. You will be surprised of the value the HD681s offer for under $40. I own headphones that are 20 times costlier than the 681s but I still love these for many reasons. The staff at Artist's Guitars are super helpful and super professional. Their postage and deliveries are on time and prompt. I am very happy with my purchase.
