Neumann NDH30 Open-back Studio Headphone

The Portable Sound Reference
The NDH 30 is a circumaural, open-back headphone with outstanding detail resolution and high-precision stereo imaging
with razor-sharp localization. Its linear soundstage and superior transient response recommend it for the most demanding
applications such as mixing and mastering.

Perfect Monitoring in Neumann Quality – Everywhere
The NDH 30 was developed with the aim of making the reference sound of a Neumann studio monitor setup, perfectly
calibrated via the Neumann MA 1, available everywhere in the form of an easily transportable headphone. At the same time,
the NDH 30 forms its own sound reference in terms of headphone reproduction, which has become a key to success with the consumer. Its superior sound characteristics make the NDH 30 the first choice for mixing and mastering. Thanks to its high long-term comfort, it is just as excellently suited to high-precision editing. Its high-quality construction of spring steel and aluminium as well as its pleasant handling properties are largely the same as those of the NDH 20. However, the NDH 30 is an open-back headphone, which means that its dynamic 38 mm transducers work as acoustic dipoles. This allows their highly refined sound characteristics to unfold optimally: extremely fast transient response, dry bass, uncoloured mids and transparent highs. In other words, the NDH 30 has no sound colouration but reproduces the signal 1:1.

Uncompromising Precision
The NDH 30 owes its superior linearity, among other things, to frequency-selective absorbers that eliminate the overemphasis in the high frequencies that leads to incorrect mixing decisions in many other headphones. For example, the NDH 30 will accurately reveal whether a voice sounds muffled or needs a de-esser. The spatial resolution is impressive. The NDH 30 allows razor-sharp localization in the stereo panorama and makes the depth of the mix evident. To minimize channel crosstalk, the NDH 30 is supplied with a high-quality cable that is internally balanced.
