Accurate monitoring starts with hearing every detail exactly as it was recorded. Inspired by the same design philosophy behind Yamaha's legendary NS-10M studio monitors, the Yamaha HPH-MT5W studio monitor headphones deliver balanced, faithful sound for recording, mixing and critical listening. Precision-tuned 40 mm drivers, a closed-back circumaural design and lightweight folding construction provide the clarity, isolation and long-wearing comfort musicians, engineers and content creators need whether working in the studio, producing at home or traveling between sessions.
Balanced Monitoring for Critical Listening
Custom 40 mm dynamic drivers with CCAW voice coils and neodymium magnets deliver balanced sound reproduction across a 20Hz–20kHz frequency range. Yamaha engineered the headphone components to minimize unwanted resonance, helping mixes, vocals and instruments remain clear and faithful to the source during recording and production work. The closed-back circumaural design also provides strong passive isolation, helping listeners stay focused in studio and live monitoring environments.
Built for Long Sessions and Everyday Use
Weighing just 0.5 lb., the HPH-MT5W is designed for extended listening without unnecessary fatigue. Large synthetic leather ear cushions and low-resistance padding provide lasting comfort while maintaining a comfortable acoustic seal, and the three-dimensional arm pivot construction allows the headphones to conform naturally to different head shapes. Swiveling earcups also support convenient single-ear monitoring, making the headphones well suited for recording sessions, live sound and DJ cueing.
Durable Design Ready for Studio or Travel
Rugged ABS housing and a folding arm mechanism help the headphones withstand everyday professional use while remaining compact for travel. The included 9.8' straight cable provides ample freedom of movement around studios and production spaces, terminating in a 1/8" connector with a threaded 1/4" gold-plated adapter for broad equipment compatibility. A protective nylon carrying bag is also included for transport and storage. The Yamaha HPH-MT5W studio monitor headphones provide accurate monitoring and dependable portability for recording, mixing and critical listening wherever your work takes you.
