ベージュカラーのヘッドホン

These headphones came in a solid case with both a straight cable and a coiled cable, as well as a set of replacement ear pads in a different color.

I chose it mainly for the color, and I feel so pumped to try these out.
The cables are also color-matched, which is a nice touch.

The fit feels very light, and the ear cups, which are said to be ergonomically designed, naturally conform to the shape of the ears.
The headband has low tension, so there is no sense of pressure; it gently stays in place against the ears.

I have large ears, so I usually struggle when choosing headphones, but I feel confident that I could wear these for long periods of time without getting a headache.

The headphones I normally use are the AIAIAI TMA-2 Studio Wireless+ Wireless Headphones and the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x Monitor Headphones.

I’ve been using the ATH-M50x for many years, but during vocal recording sessions, I’ve started to feel that the lack of low-end makes this pair a bit unreliable.

In contrast, the WA-HRT delivers strong low-end sound. The bass and kick drums are represented with a balanced, monitor-style clarity. There’s no emptiness in the sound, and I really appreciate how clearly I can hear the placement of the instruments.
The snare’s frequency range (midrange) feels slightly more forward. The high frequencies also have more extension compared to the ATH-M50x.

The TMA-2 has strong bass, which can sometimes give these headphones a slightly muffled feel, but the WA-HRT is much more balanced.

Above all, these headphones are lighter and more comfortable than the two I normally use.
I think that with aging, the sound density will improve even further.

For those who use headphones for long periods, I think these are a great choice.
The headband and ear pads are very soft and plush, so I am wondering about their durability.

There are many color options available, so it would be nice to have another pair as a backup, and the cute logo makes me feel attached to them.
Considering they are in the same price range as the ATH-M50x, I highly recommend the WA-HRT for its wider sound range and better comfort.
