The Rode NTH-50 are a pair of studio headphones, which means they’ll sound a little different to your usual best headphones like Bose and Sony. The NTH-50 aren’t intended to be bassy, but they should have textured sound, with a higher focus on midrange and treble. They're designed to be used by studio musicians and DJs, which means they prioritize accuracy.
As a result, I noticed sounds I hadn’t noticed before in some of my favorite songs, like the jazzy piano bridge in Tame Impala’s ‘Dracula’.
