11 Professional Headphones for Radio Presenters

Yet again I am looking at Headphones! Why?

During a 5KIxFM90.7 committee meeting earlier this week, we determined I am the ONLY radio presenter without personal headphones. The station has two sets in-station for guests, but because of Covid-19 every presenter is required to have their own.

A few months back I first posted about the headphone situation, and I did another post about funny headphones just last month.

Now that I MUST seek and purchase studio-ready headphones, today I revisited both DJ City and Store DJ to compile a third list, this time with the intent of buying today!

This list I can see myself wearing of a Saturday night on my radio-show!

1. PreSonus HD 9 ($119 )
2. Audio Technica ATH M30x ($109 )* Audio Technica ATHM30x
   with
   2b. Audio Technica ATGM2 Detachable Add-On Mod Mic ($119 )*
3. Behringer BH 770 ($89 )
4. Roland RH 5 ($79 )
5. Sennheiser HD 200 PRO ($99 ) *
6. Shure SRH 440 ($149 )

9. Pioneer HRM 6 ($249 )
10. Shure SRH 840 ($259 )
11. AKG K371 Closed Back Pro ($299 )

During this compilation I found the ideal radio-presenter headphones [ * ] , PLUS another set for use at home for listening to Youtube PLUS recording voice-over for my vlogs [ * ] – and have purchased them both. I will do an mail unboxing and product-review vlog. Watch out for it on my YouTube channel !

Coming up soon is a collection of professional desktop microphones!

Postscript:

1. I am not affiliated with DJ City nor Store DJ (though that would be nice), I receive no compensation for advertising their products. I have purchased from them and have received my goods in a suitable time-frame and in great condition.
