I'd think the benefit of mixing even quietly would trump that of mixing on headphones. Almost every time I produce a song on headphones I have to spend a good amount of time re-tweaking the bass on proper monitors. Just get a set of cheaper headphones (Sennheiser HD580's don't go for that much used, or look at Sony MDR-V7506's).minormal wrote: To be honest this is my main concern with monitors in rented apartments. Although I can mix quietly (some times over the weekend loud), I cant make alterations to the room which would get the most out of my speakers. This combined with the other factors has made me look into headphones for mixing. I think in afew years ill have my own place and will be able to kit a room out but until that time headphones will be the option.
Should I sell my Adam A7s for a pair of sennheiser hd650s?

Anyway you should NOT get the 650 but 600 for producing. The 650-s are more hi-fi oriented.
I'm leaning towards Beyerdynamic DT-880 for my producing headphones

i find when i mix on them i can get the mix 95% there. then when i listen on monitors some sounds need turning up but it's all minor stuff. the bass is always good, i had real problems with my low end but that went away when i got the 650's. don't buy sony headphones, they have no depth in the sound.
