With the pervasive high sampling rates and audio fidelity in music production, the demand has finally come for higher resolution headphones. Sony's new MDR-7509HD ($265) high-definition headphones are designed to address this issue, featuring an unusually wide 80 kHz reproduction range for hearing the crisper high end and deeper low end associated with high-quality PCM and DSD recording types. Sony even designed these cans partly with the needs of hip-hop producers in mind, who would blow out other headphones with too much bass. Both louder and more comfortable, the 3,000 mW power capacity means hotter signals coming to the headphones while the Auranomic, circumaural design is tailored to the shape of the ear to reduce pressure on the ears after extended use. The high-powered neodymium magnets deliver a hot midrange signal from the drivers that is louder and less fatiguing on the listener.
