Okay, so basically there isn't much to say about these headphones. They are untouchable. I can play as loud as I want, hear the music I am listening to, and don't even have to turn the volume up to max. Most importantly, I haven't lost my hearing from drumming, which is probably the most important part of being a musician. These were a definite success.
I used to play drums along with some music using conventional headphone. I turned the volume higher and higher in order to hear it clearly while playing on the drums.. Bad idea.. it was really too loud. Now I've switched to this headphone and it's been working so well!! I highly recommend this for drummers!!
The Vic Firth SIH1 Stereo Isolation Headphones from Music123 was the best decision. After comparing prices at other companies, I found the lowest price at Music123. The headphones are very comfortable to wear for long sessions. They do not muffle the sound of my drum set but do reduce it to a comfortable level. I plug the headphones into my CD player when I want to play along with music, and I will have to turn the volume to max because the headphones will not play music at eardrum shredding decibels. Although I'd prefer to play with the music a little louder, the limit on the headphones is good for my hearing in the long run, especially when playing for hours at a time. An all around excellent product.
i just got these today...and they worked great. i didnt have to crank up the volume on my cd player and i imagine it will be the same with a metronome or guitarists amp. They are really comfy on the head and they let only the good sounds through to your ear
If you are playing with music (in headphones) while you¦re practicing on drums and have got bored on losing the beat because you can't hear the music well, this is perfect. It tones down the drums so you are able to hear the music well. This is also good for studios because it doesn't send the sounds out from the headphones while they¦re on your head.
