RØDE NTH-100
Custom-matched 40mm dynamic drivers deliver an accurate frequency response from 5Hz to 35kHz, while the closed-back design provides the isolation needed for critical monitoring. The Alcantara cushions with integrated CoolTech gel actively dissipate heat, reducing fatigue during extended sessions. These headphones are best for podcasters and audio editors who require long-wearing comfort and precise detail in a wired, studio-focused headphone.
