Flexible monitoring
Although sonic isolation is excellent when you wear both of the S452’s closed-back earcups, not everyone wants total isolation all of the time. This is why the earcups of the S452 can rotate 180º to accommodate different monitoring approaches. This one-ear off technique is critical for hearing both the monitor signal fed into the headphones and the sound source simultaneously.
In addition, many vocalists prefer to hear their own performance “in the room,” rather than completely isolated in their headphones. Simply removing one earcup allows singers hear their voice naturally, while listening to the track they are working on in the other earcup.
Fold up design for easy transport
Portability is key when you’re packing up for a show or studio session. The S452 studio headphones fold up easily into a space-saving shape and can usually be fit into the storage pockets of guitar and bass gig bags.
Perhaps even more important, the S452 is built tough for the rigors of constant transport and use. Die-cast aluminum frames protect the drivers, machined aluminum hinges ensure the S452 can withstand the thousands of times the headphones will be folded up and if the ear cushions ever tatter and fray from constant use, they can be removed and replaced.
Convenient detachable cable
The S452 studio headphones come with a detachable, braided-nylon cable that can be stored separately, keeping your cable free from messy tangles-ideal when your gig bag is short on space. When it's time to put everything back together, the reliable twist lock design ensures you won’t accidentally detach the cable from the headphones. Headphone cables are also subject to a lot of wear and tear, and even the most bulletproof cables can eventually succumb to buzzes, hum and erratic signals. If that day comes, you can simply replace the cable and keep on rocking as if nothing ever happened.
