If I'm not mistaken (if I'm not actually thinking of something else), I
believe these phones (actually the modern replicas that are available
today) have been used for years by many sound engineers, especially in
the US. So many albums that people have been hearing over the years were
mixed with the help of such phones - then of course, when you listen
those records on these phones, they sound pretty good.
They've been superseded by newer technology, so nowadays they're pretty
cheap, but still they've been the professional standard for a long time.

If I am mistaken, someone please correct me.
