I review Beyerdynamic's free Headphone Lab plugin, which offers headphone correction and virtual studio room simulation for Beyerdynamic headphones. While it's simple to use and costs nothing, it has limitations including stereo-only support and a missing blend option for the correction curve.

In this video, I'm reviewing the APL Duopan plugin, a new panning tool that combines traditional amplitude-based panning with time-based panning approaches based on psychoacoustic principles. I'll demonstrate its features including the T-A slider for blending panning methods, the head shadow functionality that mimics natural frequency dampening, the dual band option for frequency-specific panning, and its seamless integration with immersive audio formats.

In this detailed comparison of the Sony MDR-MV1 headphones against the Ollo Audio S5X and Sennheiser HD490 Pro, I discover that the concept of "binaural-optimized headphones" might be oversold, as all three high-end headphones perform nearly identically for binaural audio, suggesting that buyers should focus more on personal comfort and sonic preferences rather than specific binaural capabilities.
