Does anyone have either of these headphones?
They seem to have stopped making the mdr-v6 but these seem to have better overall reviews, the specs are slightly different.
Basically looking for some closed back headphones, not too big and sub £100.
Thx

Re: Sony mdr-v6 vs mdr-7506
I have been considering the Sony MDR-1A - gets favourably compared with the Audio-Technica ATH-M50X. The Sony is smoother and fuller in sound, the ATH-M50X is praised for its dynamic punch.

Re: Sony mdr-v6 vs mdr-7506
I've got a pair of 7506's I use for recording/mastering on my home studio setup. They're nothing special in any one department but good all-rounders, which is why I use them.
