Rode NTH-50 headphones

The Rode NTH-50 on-ear headphones combine a custom-built 40mm dynamic driver with a resonant chamber to deliver clear, balanced audio with low distortion and improved passive noise isolation. Lightweight aluminium construction, contoured memory-foam ear pads and an adjustable headband provide comfort for long studio sessions.
