Minimalist Subtonic Monitor Headphones

View all 5 Photos

Phonon’s SMB-02 subtonic monitor headphones are a minimalist design cloaked in black. Made in Japan, the over-ear headphones are intended for home or studio use and promise clear sound, even at low volume. Priced at $350, the mid-range choice is available from Mohawk General Store in the USA and from additional dealers internationally.
