Sony Corporation’s SONY subsidiary, Sony Electronics Inc., has introduced the MDR-M1 Reference Closed Monitor Headphones, tailored for music creators and sound engineers to ensure their music is heard as intended in any environmental setting. Priced at $249.99/C$ 349.99, the headphones are available for pre-order at Sony.com and from authorized dealers such as Amazon, B&H, Sweetwater and Guitar Center.
The MDR-M1 delivers studio-quality sound with a finely tuned acoustic design for high-resolution audio. Its advanced driver unit provides ultra-wideband playback (5Hz – 80kHz) with a soft edge for deep, distortion-free lows and a hard dome for precise high frequencies. The closed acoustic design minimizes noise and leakage, ideal for accurate monitoring, while the Beat Response Control optimizes low-frequency response for tight, precise bass.
Engineered with input from leading sound experts like Mike Piacentini of Battery Studios and Akihiro Nishimura of Power Station at Berklee NYC, the MDR-M1 ear pads are designed for optimal fit and comfort. The thick, low-resilience padding ensures airtight listening, while the lighter design enhances comfort during extended mixing and mastering sessions, highlighted the company. The MDR-M1 comes with two cables: a high-quality replaceable cable with a stereo mini-plug and adapter, and a shorter cable for convenience in professional settings.
The MDR-M1 also integrates seamlessly with Sony's 360 Virtual Mixing Environment (360VME) service. This compatibility allows creators to overcome spatial limitations and enhances audio reproduction capabilities from virtually any location.
