High-Resolution Sound with Wide Frequency Response for Professional Monitoring with Precise Response

The HPH-MT8 headphones were engineered for accurate playback and high-resolution sound. They deliver a precise stereo image, detailed mids and highs, and rich bass. Yamaha has incorporated its decades of experience and expertise in professional high-end studio equipment manufacturing into the design of every acoustic component of these headphones.

Drivers

The HPH-MT8 headphones feature specially developed 45 mm drivers with CCAW voice coils and powerful neodymium magnets for ultimate definition and control. Made from aluminum wire and coated with highly conductive copper, these lightweight yet powerful drivers offer a wide frequency range from 15 Hz to 28 kHz, enabling a linear, extremely high-resolution sound for the highest monitoring demands.

Additional Acoustic Components

From the arms to the ear cups, every acoustic component of the HPH-MT8 was designed to achieve the highest possible precision in sound reproduction and to completely eliminate unwanted resonances.

Excellent Isolation, Maximum Comfort

Professional sound engineers with the highest demands for critical listening and recording sessions need headphones that fit perfectly, prevent fatigue after long use, and maintain concentration through high external noise attenuation. The HPH-MT8 headphones deliver maximum comfort and perfect damping, specifically tailored to the needs of professional users.

Design

The HPH-MT8 features a sleek, elegant design with a closed, circumaural construction for a comfortable fit and excellent noise isolation.

Earpads

The HPH-MT8 headphones have large ear pads for extremely comfortable wear. The soft, high-quality leather and lightweight padding absorb vibrations, provide stress-free comfort, and offer high attenuation levels—ideal for studio recordings and live monitoring situations where minimal sound leakage is essential.

Wearing Comfort

The three-dimensional swivel arm construction and adjustable slider length allow precise individual positioning of the ear pads and reduce fatigue during long listening sessions. Additionally, the HPH-MT8 features removable ear cups for optional one-ear monitoring.

Robust, Reliable Construction

Designed for professional use, the HPH-MT8 features a slim, simple construction that withstands even the toughest road use. Whether recording and mixing in the studio, live sound applications, or simply checking tracks on the go—the HPH-MT8 proves to be a versatile monitoring solution for professional users.

Housing, Support Arms, and Headband

Durability and resilience were key considerations in the development of the HPH-MT8. The robust ABS housing, aluminum die-cast support arms, and sweat-resistant headband ensure long-lasting durability even with constant use—in any working environment.

Connections

Users should be aware of the cable without being hindered by it in any way. The headphone cable must also provide sufficient length to perform in mobile monitoring situations. For maximum flexibility, the interchangeable cables include a straight 3m cable and a 1.2m coiled cable, both equipped with a gold-plated, corrosion-resistant stereo mini-jack plug and a gold-plated 6.3mm adapter plug. This allows the HPH-MT8 to be used with professional audio equipment.
