I've had my CD900ST and used it daily for almost ten years, and the old Toyota analogy it absolutely accurate. They only need their pads changed once in a while, just how you have to change the oil on your Toyota. These headphones are my safe space. They don't sound fancy, but they sound right. And I feel like it's important to appreciate something that sounds right to actually appreciate something that sounds fancy.

I have had an OG set of the MDR-V6 for 25 years and they were the only headphone I had for 20 of them. It's fun because there is a very good chance that your favorite artist was wearing them while recording your favorite song. IMMERSION. There are some variations in models, like the V6 tends to like a thinner pad and the 7506 likes a thicker. But what does not vary is they are all great. It's like the hd 600. I think everyone should have a set.

Glad you mentioned these! I was curious of your thoughts on them!

Brilliant video editing and 80s theme. Actually I would vote this for the video of the year and I watch YouTube every day. Really great work DMS. Respect

These have been my dailies for the last 2 and a half years, both general use and gaming, obviously with the yaxi pads and I can't really express how much I love them. Comfortable, good sound and timeless!

Got them on Zeos' recommendation with the yaxi pads and I love them, I love the detail in the treble and I use mostly for music.

The original MDR lineup will always be my favorite constructed headphones. They're just so comfortable and lightweight. I doesn't have more expensive (and heavy) materials because there's no need for them. There's no headband padding or suspension strap, because there's no reason. There's no excessive clamp force, which is something I'm really sensitive to. It is a headphone first and foremost in both its sound and construction. The number of headphones on the market that kind of fail at being a comfortable piece of equipment to use because of overly complicated construction is just insane to me.

Nice vintage video. I remember theat Sony digital logo from so many sony digital products of that period. I think I will buy a pair, thanks! CDs are on the comeback!

Despite now owning Susvara, these headphones are still a solid option in my collection. Replacement pads are definitely a requirement, can't wear these for more than 20 minutes without different pads. There are multiple pad options from Yaxi and Brainwavz (For MDR-7506, but they are compatible with the CD900st's) so buy a few different kinds and find out what you prefer (I use the "YAXI stPad Earpads LR"). I mostly use them as work headphones now (Susvaras make me look like a dork in virtual meetings lol), but I still have a listening session here and there with them and enjoy what they can do. Are there better headphones out there? Of course, Susvara is in a different galaxy when compared to these. But for the price the CD900st's are excellent and 100% worth using to listen to the genres that DMS mentioned in the video. Happy listening!

Been my daily driver for a while now. I love these with all my heart

Those specific pads are incredible on the Meze 99 headphones

I love this type of video! Does it sound about same as 7506?

I really have to get a pair of these. Trick seems to be finding a seller without a bunch of bad feedback.
As for old headphones I love, I have a pair of OG SR325 that are actually not SR325s, but rather a clone called an Amber Pro made by a local distributor from original parts after they lost distribution rights back in the mid 2000s. Specs are identical, cable is 6.35mm marked Grado, drivers are even pink tinged as with old Grados. I was A/B-ing with my V1 Ananda's, and yeah, the Amber Pro treble is splashier and the soundstage isn't as big, and there isn't really sub bass, but it's actually pretty great for the pocket change I paid for it. Really enjoyable.

Production quality hit my nostalgia HARD, and now I'm digging out some VHS tapes of Saturday Morning cartoons that I had to set the VCR to auto-record while my mom took me to intramural soccer games. Thank you for the memories! 🤣 EDIT: I was also the Asian kid who sourced my classmates with bootleg Ranma episodes I got from that one Chinese drug store from paper-route money ✌
