Neumann

collapse expand iconDescription

Neumann NDH 20 studio headphones offer excellent isolation and well-balanced sound quality. They are ideal for monitoring and mixing, even in settings where there is a lot of distracting ambient noise. NDH 20 studio headphones are comfortable enough to wear for long listening sessions. Since they are foldable, these headphones are also easy to transport, making them great for listening on to go.
 

Neumann NDH 20 studio headphones offer linear sound balance

Linear sound balance

While many other closed-back headphones are marred by nasty resonances in the mid-band, NDH 20 headphones offer an astonishingly detailed, well-balanced sound image, similar to Neumann’s acclaimed studio loudspeakers. This makes them an ideal choice for studio monitoring and mixing. Thanks to an even frequency response and natural stereo imaging, you can mix with confidence and ensure compatibility to all playback systems.

Neumann NDH20 headphones have a circumaural design for sound isolation

Excellent sound isolation

With a circumaural design and large memory foam ear cup pads, Neumann NDH20 stereo headphones deliver exceptional sound isolation. This makes them ideal for applications that require monitoring in a tracking room, as well as FOH work in a noisy environment. The adjustable headband is made of flexible steel while the ear cup covers are machined from lightweight aluminum. The NDH20’s superb isolation makes them an excellent choice for critical listening, free from disturbance from the outside world.

Neumann NDH 20 studio headphones deliver high-definition sound

Transparent sound with high resolution

With newly designed 38 mm drivers and high-gauss neodymium magnets, NDH 20 headphones deliver transparent, high-resolution sound. Thanks to a frequency response of 5Hz to 30kHz, NDH 20 studio headphones are particularly helpful for checking the upper and lower extremes of your audio. The large neodymium magnets ensure high sensitivity and minimized distortion, allowing you to listen to the pure audio signal without unwanted coloration.

Neumann NDH 20 closed-back studio headphones are compact and foldable

Compact and foldable design

For easy transportation, NDH 20 closed-back headphones are foldable and fit into the supplied soft cloth bag. Thanks to their compact size, Neumann NDH 20 studio monitoring headphones are an indispensable tool for working on the road. They’re also excellent for audiophile entertainment. Most studio headphones are large and bulky, making them difficult to take with you on the go. But the NDH 20’s compact, folding design means they won’t take up too much space in your gear bag when you leave the studio.

    Amazing headphones that justify the price tag. These show you all the nastiest frequencies you didn't hear from your monitors. Listening to songs you've heard for years, you'll now notice even more detail- new parts, deeper bass, cracks and pops, mistakes you wouldn't otherwise hear. One of the best purchases for my studio.

    Great quality sound and build. Perfect for studio production work. Sound is very well balanced. Great isolation. The dual cord option is great! Given the sturdy build, they can get a little heavy after prolonged wearing.

    Knew going in that this was supposed to be a flat, natural sounding pair of closed headphones. They aren't the most comfortable but they really create a boxy sound when just putting them on your head. I have ATs, Sonys, Shures, Beyers, and Audezes and none of them have this issue in quite the same way. Mid and top end response is flat, but it literally rolls off way to high and makes low end decisions impossible because you can't even hear it. Not looking for hyped bass in any way, but missing detail and accuracy in the low end. Don't usually mix on cans, but thought these may help when traveling but I gave up as the overall picture just wasn't clear enough to make decisions that I wouldn't have to completely rework later.
