These chunky studio headphones are excellent for musicians but might be a bit much for when out and about.

Our Verdict

The OneOdio Monitor 60 over-ear wired headphones have been optimised for use in a professional studio environment for DJs, musicians, music making and track mixing. While I'm no musician, I dabble in video editing and podcasting from time to time and these headphones were excellent at highlighting crisp sounds with a balanced frequency. A great choice for creatives when using software like Adobe Audition and Premiere Pro or even GarageBand. I like my music loud with a lot of bass, and these headphones did not disappoint – also earning a seal of approval from my guitarist fiancé.

For

The Monitor 60 headphones from OneOdio are designed primarily for use in a home studio environment, offering intense bass, strong hi-range sounds, and solid mid-range performance for a reasonable price of just $79 / £83 (currently on sale too!). For professional studio headphones, there might be better options on the market for dedicated audiophiles, but at this price point, you can't ask for much more. 

Launched in October 2021, the OneOdio Monitor 60s are now two years old and have since been overshadowed by the newer OneOdio Monitor 80 open-back headphones, sitting at a higher price of $120.99 / £112 (and with fancier velvet ear pads and a carrying case). But if you're just getting started as someone who works in music and audio production, then the Monitor 60s should be all that you need.
