Vox are very pleased to announce the immediate availability of the VH-Q1 noise cancelling headphones, aimed at todays guitarist and bass players.

The build makes them great for longer, late-night jam sessions. The ear cushions are made with comfortable velour cups, and the headband is adjustable to fit all head sizes. The lightweight frame helps too, weighing in at 260 grams. Often on engineers’ shortlists of favorite mixing headphones, these headphones allow for a wide soundstage and deliver a neutral frequency response perfect for accurate monitoring. The experience of the Superlux HD681 headphones is mostly just surprising. At this price, they’re really not bad!Guitar playing at home involves so much fiddling with your amp, the pedals, the dials, the computer, or your phone, that often the creative spark is gone by the time you get all the dials set.

The bass felt slightly overpowering at times. Just enough to take away maximum monitoring clarity in the lower mids.

The default amp settings sound great and can be switched with the buttons on the right ear cup.They have a comfortable pleather headband and pleather ear cups weighing in at a normal 320 grams. The right ear cup has controls for volume and amp presets. Easy to find and pleasing to the touch, I liked the steel roll dial for volume. The audible frequency response of an electric guitar falls between 80 Hz – 4.5 kHz depending on how low you tune your bottom string. Attenuators range from the high-end Universal Audio Oxto the affordable but excellent Bugera Power Soak. Questions or Comments?
