The Austrian Audio OC818 and Hi-X60 play a crucial role in our studio. The OC818 is my go-to large diaphragm stereo microphone for drums, upright pianos, cellos, and even traditional Korean instruments like the gayageum. It is a microphone I trust without hesitation for any situation requiring a large diaphragm stereo mic. The Hi-X60 headphones were chosen after blind testing multiple products. They offer exceptional comfort, excellent noise isolation, and superior monitoring sound that satisfies everyone who uses them. These are the best headphones I have ever used.
