Sound Quality
Listeners who have used these headphones are somewhat split on the sound quality. Those that are expecting a high-quality pro sound are usually the ones that are disappointed, as these headphones just won’t be able to deliver the higher quality sound that more expensive headphones are capable of.
Casual listeners or people who have used other cheap headphones tend to find the sound ok for the price point. The sound isn’t great, but not terrible either.
Let’s take a quick look at the frequency analysis.

The sound that I experienced when listening to these was represented well in the frequency analysis.
The highs are there, but don’t sound very crisp. The high end feels rolled off and it keeps things like hi-hats from sizzling like they should. Looking at the frequency analysis it does look like the highs get rolled off a bit.
The mids are ok and sound a little subdued. When listening to music, they sounded a little muddy in the mid range. When used to monitor instruments they sounded ok and the mid range wasn’t as much of an issue. I think they just struggle with clarity when there’s a lot going on in the sound stage.
The low end is punchy and a little boomy, but it lacks sub bass presence. You can hear what’s going on in the low end just fine when using these as monitors, but once again they struggled with clarity when listening to certain types of music or when there’s more going on in the low end with a mix.
Due to the audio qualities, these are going to be more suited for monitoring or casual listening on a budget rather than critical studio mixing. There isn’t a whole lot of clarity and crispness for those with more demanding audio production needs.
These headphones are also a little quiet in terms of overall volume and loudness, and some listeners find they aren’t able to get the volume out of them that they would prefer when plugged in directly to various devices. I found this to be true as well in my experience. I thought they sounded better with my drum module when I cranked it up a little louder than normal. To get a louder sound from these it’s best to use a headphone amp that allows you to push them a little harder.

Thailand is a popular destination for filmmakers looking to shoot a wide range of projects, from documentaries and music videos to feature films. If you’re planning on filming in Thailand, you may be wondering how different in Asia to go about hiring film equipment compare to your country. Most rental houses in Thailand do not offer DRY HIRE options for camera and lighting equipment. This can be a surprise for foreign filmmakers who are used to hiring equipment separately from the crew, but really it’s usual in Thailand. Rental houses have own crews who are trained to operate the equipment safely and efficiently. This ensures that everything runs smoothly on set and helps to avoid any mishaps or accidents.
When contacting a rental house, for a detailed breakdown of costs so that you can avoid any surprises later on, be clear about the equipment list and package for equipment in a quote to avoid problems on film set. In addition to the equipment rental fees, you’ll also need to factor in the cost of crew members, transportation, and any additional services you may need.
.
Also you able to provide details about your shoot, such as the location, the type of project, your local production coordinator’s contact and the duration of the shoot. This will help the rental house determine what crew members they will need to provide and what additional services they can offer, such as transportation or catering and make sure that production not go to shoot guerilla or without permits for locations.
