Roland VMH-D1 V-Drums - Auriculares diseñados por Roland & V-Moda para baterías en V y kits de batería electrónica | Sonido inmersivo | Cable largo para batería sin enredos | Escudos personalizables,

These are by far the best sounding phones in this price range in my opinion, comfort padding feels great to play for extensive periods of time. Fit is perfect for me. Ive got small head and ears so i cant comment on how it feels to larger folks. Quality. Built solid, i really like the behind the back attachment, as it keeps the cable on your back instead of under your armpit. Plenty of length of cable as well because you get two different lengths. But the MVP of these phones is just how incredible they sound when plugged into my Alesis Strata Prime e-Kit. Im not talking good, im talking high dollar Nashville studio sound. Of course im not comparing them to some $3000 set of phones, but i can say that these satisfy my ears, as they are perfectly tuned to handle all the frequencies with ease, total clarity and zero distortion, especially on the bass drum, and thats due to the 50mm drivers. Streaming music to play along to, these phones are simply a pleasure to listen to.

These headphones recreate the V-Drum sound perfectly with very low latency. They also have a comfortable fit, allowing for hours of enjoyable playing.

Design is nice. Light on the head, comfortable on ears. Sound is okay. Expensive for me.

After a further round of testing, I’ve updated this review throughout (it’s even worse than initially thought):I should preface this review with a caution that this is based on my subjective opinion. Everyone has a different ear both physically and how we perceive audio. I may also be overly harsh given my extensive background in pro audio, and the fact these don’t even stack up to headphones half its price point.With that out of the way, I find these headphones overall disappointing in every measurable area. I’ll break it down in sections:- Sound: These sound plain terrible and definitely no better than the industry standard, M50x, or than a litany of others in the same price range. I find the sound overly compressed and dull, and lacking clarity. Everything just sounds worse with these. Remember, you want to listen to backing tracks or other band members along with your drums.- Body/construction: This is a surprisingly small set. The cups barely fit my ears. While it’s okay comfort wise once on, it feels small and flimsy. It’s also not flexible and doesn’t fold or lie flat, which (to me) is a necessity for placing headphones atop hi-hats.- Cable: Roland includes two cables, a shorter braided one, and a longer standard one. They’re both plain mini-to-mini (1/8”) and don’t have any way to secure to the headphones such as a twist-lock found on most pro headsets. I also found that it wouldn’t always seat properly in the 1/4” adapter and would play in mono until fiddled with a bit. I find this unacceptable, especially when playing drums where movement can be an issue. While opting for standard mini cables might be an upside, it isn’t when considering it could fall out while playing drums. The included cable hook contraption for keeping cables along the user’s back is more gimmick than anything, to me anyway.- Packaging/Accessories: Packaging is quite simple and nothing to rave about, and the included pouch is an afterthought. It’s a cheapie vinyl bag I’d never use. The drum hook is also a flimsy little piece that doesn’t seem to even be able to hold the weight of the very headphones it’s made for.This is a very crowded price range, with so many good options to include offerings from Audio Technica, Beyerdynamic, AKG, Shure, Rode, Mackie, and many more. The idea that Roland/Vmoda can somehow engineer a magical pair of headphones that will make your drums sound any better than any other one out there is plain silly. It’s all about a quality set that works best for you. You don’t need special headphones for drums, period. Take a trip to a decent local music store and test out a few pairs on their drums, and see what works best for you. For me, I prefer something like the AT M70x, which reproduces precisely what goes into it. It has plenty of highs, mids, lows, and everything in between, and is exceptionally clear sounding (Garbage in, garbage out!), but if you want something at a lower price range and/or something with more emphasis on the lows (it’s not “punchy” or “bass-ey”; it just lacks mids), I’d recommend the M50X. I might recommend the Rode NTH-100 or a few others for their sound and comfort, but the M50 just has them beat with its flexibility and overall reliability. I don’t see a reason to veer off this path just to be “edgy”.This was clearly not intended for the pro, or anyone who already has any experience with decent headphones because why would you spend more for this than for so many better options?! Well, if a gimmicky customized side panel (for more $$) appeals to you more than fit and sound, this might just be for you, but why?! VMODA seems to be for Roland what Beats is for Apple—hot garbage masquerading in the shell of something “pro”. Roland can and should do better than this.Oh and if you came here after watching someone shill for Roland because they got a pair for free from them (I’m embarrassed for them), know that I do enjoy many Roland products, but give you my unvarnished opinion.Happy drumming!

I am very pleased with these headphones. They have a solid bottom end with a slightly rolled off top end. I can appreciate this as they are non fatiguing and pleasant to use for long playing sessions. I find them to be very comfortable. The ear cups fit my my ears nicely. If you have larger ears, you can buy larger ear cups. I also find the build quality to be very solid. In summary, these headphones are clean sounding and provide powerful undistorted drum sounds. I appreciate the way they effortlessly reproduce my drum kit sounds with authority and clarity.
