Getting the full feel of overdrive or broken-up sounds from a guitar amp can be difficult with headphones. These outperformed all others on this list in this regard. The extreme headroom allows the distortion to travel and bloom a bit as it does in a room. But at this price, it is difficult not to be impressed by these cans – a great choice for a budget set. The VOX 2ch USB-ASIO Driver allows certain VOX Products to be used as an ASIO compatible USB audio interface. With this driver, you can play and record audio with very low latency with an ASIO compatible application. VOX 2ch Audio Driver may not work on some PCs, and it may prevent some applications working properly. The VH-Q1 Silent Session Studio headphones are a pair of premium over-ear Bluetooth headphones with a number of features aimed specifically at guitar players. In addition to offering excellent sound quality and noise rejection, they have a very clever feature that Vox is calling "Smart Monitoring". Similar to the "transparency" mode found on many high-end earbuds and headsets, this function brings the outside world into your headphones. The crucial difference is that the VH-Q1 allows you to tune in to the specific frequencies of your acoustic guitar or bass, while still rejecting some external noise. There are five presets to choose from, depending on whether you're looking for a fuller or brighter sound, and the result is very impressive. I found myself playing more dynamically with the headphones on than without, and appreciating the fine nuances of the guitar's tone that might be lost in an imperfect environment.
I would put it this way: The NC-Q1 delivered a decent passive performance, but this is also available from well-known competitors in closed systems aimed at the professional sector for a lower price. In the end, I would not call the NC-Q1 a neutral monitoring unit for production, neither in active nor passive mode. For guitar playing, you need exciting mids, and these deliver. Maybe too much. They are a little unnaturally hyped on the bass and mids for reference headphones. Adaptable ear cushions and over the ear cup provide great comfort and excellent sound isolation. Ideal for Vocal and Acoustic Guitar TrainingThese Vox Bluetooth Headphones produce clear high-quality audio, perfect for practicing guitar, acoustic or bass, listening to your favourite jam or making a phone call. While the response of your headphones above and below this range will affect how the audible range sounds, clear monitoring in the 300 Hz – 3kHz range is a must have feature for guitar players. Compatible with a plethora of Bluetooth Codecs and including Google Assistant and Siri, the Vox Headphones can be used multi-functionally across a wide range of devices.
The adaptable ear cushions enhance the listening experience for the player providing excellent comfort and sound isolation. Acoustic and Vocal Guitar Training Enabled Connecting the Bluetooth app could be easier. The connect button has a toggle function that can also be pressed in, this wasn’t obvious at first and required manual consultation (which no one likes). [WAZA manual] In practice, the noise-cancelling effect is clearly noticeable, but less intense in its reduction as with Sony, for example. Static and low-frequency noises are nevertheless noticeably lowered in level and thus, in combination with the strong padding, an improved signal-to-noise ratio and quiet space is created. Of course, this becomes relevant in the special case of explicitly loud outside noise levels. A loud clap of the hands or placing the head directly in front of a loud guitar amplifier did not disturb the system. The microphones only reacted audibly to the wind. Sound The Sennheiser HD 650 headphones are a high-end set of headphones, designed for mixing and mastering. Compatible with a wide variety of Bluetooth codecs (SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX-xLLC, APTx-HD), the VH-Q1 also gives users remote access to both Google Assistant and Siri, and its dedicated beamforming processing assures the clearest voice signal during hands-free calls, so you are always well connected with the world around you!The VH-Q1 features a wide frequency and harmonic response along with a wide dynamic range for a precise, clear and well-balanced sound with a 41mm custom PEEK high-grade film diaphragm for excellent sound. The adaptable ear cushion and over the ear cup provide not only excellent noise isolation, but also the highest comfort while delivering pristine sound. Perhaps this was because they were so exactly balanced for mixing and mastering purposes. For that purpose, the precision is glorious – everything in the mix comes out.
The soundstage is ample enough. Instruments in the lower mids are sometimes difficult to identify in the mix and the overall balance is not ideal.
