The TMA-2 Studio Range: Which Headphones Suit Your Creative Workflow?

When it comes to making music—whether you're mixing in a studio or sketching ideas on the go—the headphones you’re using need to adapt to your own creative flow. Enter our TMA-2 Studio range. This modular line of headphones is built with the music producer in mind, balancing comfort, audio accuracy, and connectivity across a variety of configurations tailored to your needs.

Whether you want the freedom to go wireless with the Studio Wireless or Studio Wireless+, or you prefer staying plugged in with the Studio or Studio XE, the Studio range is built to meet the needs of modern music creators. Each model offers the same commitment to comfort, modularity, and professional-grade sound — tailored for how you like to work.

So what makes them different — and which one fits your flow? 

TMA-2 Studio Wireless

The Studio Wireless is designed with producers in mind who want wireless freedom but don’t necessarily require the uncompressed audio. It still uses our W+ tech, delivering under 10ms latency—more than fast enough for most production work. Bluetooth is also included mainly as a convenience feature for casual listening, but the core wireless experience relies on W+ Link for superior sound and responsiveness.

It also uses the bio-diaphragm speaker drivers found in our higher-end models, ensuring consistent audio quality. This model strikes a balance between professional-grade performance and practical accessibility, making it ideal for producers sketching ideas, doing edits, or working in situations where cables can get in the way.

Studio Wireless comes with the added bonus of an Ableton Live Lite license, so you can start creating immediately. 

Ideal for: Producers and musicians who want wireless freedom.

Studio Wireless is out June 24th.

TMA-2 Studio Wireless+

This is our top-of-the-line headphone for professional producers who want the flexibility of wireless audio, while retaining sound quality through uncompressed audio transmission. Featuring W+ Link technology, it uses a dedicated 2.4GHz connection (not Bluetooth) to deliver uncompressed audio at 1500kbps with low latency (<16ms)—ideal for real-time beat-making, recording, and mixing.

The W+ Link tech allows you to work wirelessly without the typical lag that would make traditional BT headphones unusable in a studio setting. If you need or want BT though, it has that too—plus an optional cable for total versatility. With Alcantara memory foam cushions and ergonomic headband with extra centre padding, it’s built for long sessions in the studio or on the move.

Ideal for: Professional producers and artists who want uncompromising wireless performance.

TMA-2 Studio

TMA-2 Studio focuses on delivering high-resolution, detailed sound through its signature bio-cellulose diaphragm drivers for critical mixing, editing, or mastering.

Its padded Alcantara earpads and durable build make it suitable for long sessions in the studio. And like all models in the range, it's modular, meaning you can upgrade components over time rather than replace the whole headphone.

Ideal for: Studio-based producers and engineers who want a classic wired setup for critical listening.

TMA-2 Studio XE

The Studio XE is the most affordable and lightweight option in the range. It retains our modularity and sound signature but strips things down for maximum portability and comfort. It uses a slightly lighter headband and earpads to keep the total weight under 190 grams—great for long listening sessions or if you're working between locations.

It offers a highly versatile sound profile, tuned to suit a range of creative tasks from production to playback, making it a great all-rounder and a perfect companion for a range of creative work.

Studio XE also comes with the added bonus of an Ableton Live Lite license. 

Ideal for: Creators or producers who need lightweight, reliable headphones without the frills.

So, Which One Is Right for You?

Choosing the right TMA-2 Studio model depends on how you make music.

If you’re a studio professional who demands uncompressed wireless performance with low latency, the Studio Wireless+ is the clear choice. For those who want reliable wireless functionality but don’t demand uncompressed audio, the Studio Wireless offers excellent performance with ultra-low latency, making it ideal for versatile production work. If you prefer the traditional wired setup for consistent, high-fidelity monitoring, the Studio model delivers just that. And for creators starting out or needing a lightweight, portable option, the Studio XE provides great value without compromising on quality.

With the TMA-2 Studio range, you can choose the setup that fits your needs today—knowing you can always upgrade or adapt later. Its modular design makes it easy to evolve your gear as your craft grows.
