Steven Slate Audio VSX Platinum Edition

Necesitaba unos auriculares para mix en un rango de 500$, busque muchas reviews sobre los VSX hasta que decidí comprarlos.
Después de varios meses de uso puedo decir que ha sido una buena compra. Algunas emulación de sala me ayuda a escuchar realmente como se comporta el los end en mis mezclas.
Mayormente mezclo con mi monitores (80%) y solo uso los VSX como segunda escucha y monitorear mi LOW END.

two days ago I received the VSX, I think the idea is great and the sound is powerful and the different rooms really create different mixing spaces, I really appreciate the effort but I have two problems: I am so used to mixing with ultra comfortable open headphones akg 701 that the VSX make me very uncomfortable, I guess that for the correct recreation of the spaces they need that type of headset so attached to the ears and with that type of closure so deep.

The other big problem is the chorus effect in the voices - in the instrumental part it does not happen -, I do not know if I have configured something wrong, but in almost all the mixing rooms, I notice a slight or pronounced chorus effect in the voices, I suppose that over time this protwo days ago I received the VSX, I think the idea is great and the sound is powerful and the different rooms really create different mixing spaces, I really appreciate your effort but I have two problems: I am so used to mixing with ultra comfortable open headphones akg 701 that the VSX make me very uncomfortable, I guess that for the correct recreation of the spaces they need that type of headset so attached to the ears and with that type of closure so deep.

I hope that you will soon release a version with open headphones and I will press the button again, for the moment I think I will return it."blem will be refined.

When I decided to buy these it was somewhat of a gamble mentally, there was a variety of people's thoughts on how good they are, whether they were "snake oil" or one of the best purchases you could make for improving the mix and master quality of your music. After owning them for about a month I have fallen into the latter camp. They are incredible, and aside from my FL Studio All Plugins version license they are the best music purchase/investment I have ever bought.

The only downside I think these headphones have is that it is impossible to demo how they are going to sound to you based off of YouTube videos or reviews etc. This is thanks to the software aspect designed for these specific headphones and the fact that it is calibrated to every batch of thousand VSX headphones sold (you input the first 2 digits of serial number when you set up the software).

You are basically reliant on second hand information as to how good they are, and this very nearly ended up putting me off buying them, but I am so glad I grabbed them in the end. They were the best Christmas present I could have gotten for myself last year.

If I was given the option to trade these in for a pair of current gen Audeze or a set of 30k USD costing studio monitors I wouldn't take either. The VSX's versatility is unmatched compared to either. They are the perfect mixing solution for a small home studio in an untreatable room and where noise complaints can be a thing, and I don't think any amount of extra money could buy something better.

As an added bonus they are incredibly comfortable and I am happy to sit and wear them for hours of mixing time, they are also the best performing pair of headphones at lower volume levels of any I have ever owned.
