Do you mean the sharp vocals?
I know on mine if an album or song is mixed badly because I hear every sound and it hurts my ears sometimes.
yup the vocals. its almost sounds like they were never de-essed lol

Same problem.
got them in the home studio too
Audio technicas m50s are the besr studio monitor headphones definitely for vocals. If you want to hear how you sound with no effects no bass no b.s then this is best option for recording music

The m50x are not balanced at all. I calibrate them with the Sonarworks Reference Headphones plugin if I’m recording which helps, but without calibration they are anything except accurate
@Vietbrah Go with the ATH-M50s. People saying that the "bass is too low" don't realize that ATH-M50s are reference monitors, meaning that they aren't intended to exaggerate any part of the frequency band (20hz-20Khz).
These are reference monitors that are designed to provide a flat, balanced response so that producers know exactly how to mix their tracks. While Sony headphones may be great for casual listeners, a lot of those kinds of headphones will boost the low end because people find that sound to be more enjoyable while listening to certain kinds of music.
If I may add one more choice to your list of potential headphones to invest in, I would suggest the Beyerdynamic DT-770 Pros. Seriously the best headphones I've ever owned. Not only do they provide unmatched quality where audio is concerned, but I can say wholeheartedly that they are the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn, thanks to their velvety-plush ear pads. It's more than just listening to music, these headphones provide an immersive audio experience.
If you go with the Audio Technicas, you won't be disappointed, but you may find that they cause a bit of discomfort after prolonged use (if you don't listen to music for long periods of time, then this won't be an issue.) I own both the Audio Technica ATH-M50s as well as the Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pros, and I can confidently say that I prefer the latter, given the long-lasting comfort, durability and sound response they provide.
Just my 2 cents.
might cop a pair of M50s in the future
For now I use the Beyerdynamics DT 990 pros for reference mixing
Are their better than pro maxes?
Maybe at home but like I wouldn't use ATH m50's on a plane, at the gym, in the library. Woud look like a total nerd + the active noise cancelling on bose/apple ones are platinum
