Mackie DJ Headphone Construction

Here we have the top model, the closed MC-250. These headphones are primarily aimed at audio professionals – in the studio as well as live. The MC-250s’ sound is excellent for the price range. They play the whole audible spectrum balanced and without deficits.In the bass range, the Mackies work with commitment and grip, reliably parrying even high listening volumes with a fair amount of muscle. Above the balanced basic tonality, there is a slight dominance in the mids. This ensures that you are in a very conscious listening situation when working with the MC-250: You don’t “sink” into the sound space and forget that you are wearing headphones, but are constantly aware of the virtual sound staging. This is a very desirable characteristic for monitoring and studio headphones, as it is all about “consciously” working on and with the sound. The MC-250s are not headphones that help you escape the world for a while, but are instead working devices, which is why the Mackies are also recommended for DJ use. The good external noise shielding is also concentration-enhancing and important when playing monitor mixes
