-Numerous ergonomical and operational advantages- Private Q2 is a workhorse!
-Floating configuration refers to rental and portable systems. Permanent installation is usually what works best for a permanent tracking studio.

Private Q2 is a new version of the headphone system made by Mytek. It’s functionally exactly the same as the original system now called Private Q Classic with the exception of connectors. Very expensive Cannon DL connectors were replaced with more affordable D36 centronics. The new connectors seem to also provide more reliable contact, particularly when operating in a dusty and busy environment. PQ2 is generally less expensive and in stock, and it is recommended for all new installations. PQ Classic can be made to order and is recommended only to augment already existing PQ Classic installation.
