Product details

The perfect mix of transparency, comfort and reliability: the HD 490 PRO has been specially developed for today's complex music productions. Its open design enables high-precision sound reproduction with
a very realistic, spatial stage. With the HD 490 PRO, there are no more "blind spots" in audio playback - you have full control over all the subtleties and details of the mix.

The HD 490 PRO was developed in Germany and is made by hand using durable components. The headphones are so light and comfortable that you can completely immerse yourself in the mix and almost forget you're wearing headphones. The ergonomic design spares sensitive areas of the head and, as a nice side effect of the open principle, there is plenty of air in the ears. Hours in the studio will feel like minutes. The HD 490 PRO comes with two different pairs of ear pads, one with a sound signature for mixing, the other for producing. Both are optimised for prolonged use and prevent fatigue. The ear pads are washable and replaceable - for greater sustainability. Also included: the innovative dearVR MIX-SE plugin from Dear Reality. With it, you are always in the sweet spot and can transform your DAW into the ultimate virtual mixing environment. dearVR MIX-SE simulates the carefully tuned acoustics of an ideal stereo mixing studio. This means your mix will sound consistently good on different playback systems. With the HD 490 PRO, you can fully realise your creative vision. You have control over all the subtleties of the mix, there are no more "blind spots" in the audio playback. So you can ensure a perfect transfer of your mix to other playback systems.
