The Neumann NDH 20 are closed headphones that combine the excellent isolation you've come to expect from Neumann products, with carefully balanced imaging and excellent resolution. This makes the NDH 20 ideal for monitoring and mixing work, even in noisy environments. Circumaural memory foam ear cushions provide long-lasting comfort.
While many other closed-back headphones are marred by midrange resonances that make it difficult to make reliable mix decisions, the NDH 20 is surprisingly detailed and well balanced sound, similar to Neumann's acclaimed studio speakers. With great sound and large memory foam ear cushions, the NDH 20 won't tire you out for long periods of time.
The NDH 20 uses newly designed drivers (38 mm/1.5”) with high-gauss neodymium magnets to ensure high sensitivity and minimized distortion, thus allowing the user to listen to the pure audio signal without unwanted coloration. The mechanical construction, too, meets the highest standards. The adjustable headband is made of flexible steel while the ear cup covers are machined from lightweight aluminum. For easy transportation the headphone is foldable and can be placed into the supplied soft cloth bag. Two detachable cables (one straight, one coiled) and a 6.3 mm (1/4”) adapter are also included.
The NDH 20 is suited to all applications that require high sound isolation such as monitoring for musicians and engineers in the tracking room as well as FOH work. It is also an excellent choice for critical listening, free from disturbance from the outside world and, vice versa, without causing disturbance to people nearby due to leakage. Thanks to its extended frequency response ranging from 5 Hz to 30 kHz the NDH 20 is particularly helpful to check the upper and lower extremes of the audio band.
Unlike most other closed-back headphones, the Neumann NDH 20 is suited to mixing purposes too. An unusually even frequency response and natural stereo image allow for mixing with confidence and ensure compatibility to all playback systems. The NDH 20 is thus an indispensible tool for working on the road. Of course, it is also an excellent headphone for audiophile entertainment.
