## Description

The Ultimate Mix Reference Headphones Starter Pack Few things are more frustrating than attempting to mix in a room with poor acoustics. Steven Slate Audio's VSX Essentials Edition is a value-laden, stripped-down version of the company's full-blown VSX modeling headphones package, and it's the perfect solution to this age-old dilemma. Not only does the VSX Essentials Edition includes the same modeling headphones as the full-sized package, but you also get a well-chosen sampling of virtual reference spaces. This sonically neutral headset boasts beryllium drivers for an ultra-detailed sound, while a patented APS system harnesses air pressure to optimize your low end. A pair of Steven Slate Audio VSX headphones is rugged enough to withstand the rigors of studio life. It can survive sweat, humidity, drops, temperature, and extended high-volume listening. A no-tangle cable rounds out the VSX's generous features set. Simply put, if you're struggling against a poor mixing environment,

Review: True to Source and Food for Soul - This comment is regarding the hardware; the headphone itself. I am a simple man. I have no build quality issues. I have an issue (it’s you) with the sound. It’s not me it’s you. Without the use of any software, I find the sound of these headphones so engaging, so pleasing to my ears. Plugged into an iD4 mkii, they are my preferred phone in comparison with the AT M50, MDR- MV1 and iPod Max. Sub bass region is no one-trick-pony, but goes deep in the blue sea (water). The mid bass area feels so organic (horizon). The treble tone is very natural (airy). The midrange is down to earth. All enlaced on a precise yet fluid soundstage…..just beautiful. I look forward to deep diving into the room to see what melody I can catch. This headphone is a toast to the groove and a compliment to audiophilidity. Now onto the software…
Review: Gamechanger, daily driver mixing and mastering headphones - I know some people think this is gimmicky, but this was legitimately a game changer for my mixing and mastering, I even just use them all the time with the desktop plugin, they sound amazing, you get what you pay for. For those who cant afford 10 studios and want a quick car test and references, go for this, it's pricey yes, but you don't get anything else for this price either. Only love for slate

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What do they come with? Any cables or carrying case?**
A: Here's what I found:

a pair of the headphones, a cable, the case and a card telling you to set up the software and use the serial number printed on the box. You even get a gold plated headphone adaptor,

**Q: does this come with lastest software**
A: These are the new Vsx essential. you download the software so it’s always the latest.

**Q: Do they break easily and how durable are VSX headphones? I heard the older versions were not great.**
A: I've read the older version has plastic in the inside of the over skull area. My version, purchased recently, has metal. That supposedly was the fix.
They do not feel as high quality as my other headphones especially since they are 3x the cost.
You're mostly paying for the software and the headphones are supposed to have 0 character added, flat.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great!
*by S***N on January 10, 2025*

These were a birthday gift for my son, who spends a lot of time doing sound design. He had asked for them specifically because they're known to be high quality. He is very happy with them and uses them almost daily in his work. He says the audio quality is fantastic and they're comfortable even after long periods of wearing. Highly recommend!
