What can I said more... they are good for anything. For recording vocals & instruments, mixing check for low end (if you are not sure about your room frequency anomalies and do not have a very good acoustic treatment), even for drummers for drum recording (there are better ones but these can make job done well). If you have laptop or not have kind of hi end headphone preamp, just make sure you buy 32ohm version, which need less push to get louder sound. Plus if you have any room correction software for headphones I am almost 100% sure that there is already preset for DT-770 headphones in it. I wish the company would make an option with a connector on the headphones so that the cable can be replaced if it is damaged and that you can use another one (longer, better,...) , that can be inserted and that there is no need to disassemble the headphones if the cable is damaged. Thats why 4 stars
