Audio Technica ATH-M50x vs Beyerdynamic T1

There’s a little of the upper mids sucked out which most people won’t want anyway. Also, they are super easy to drive, so no need for an amp. Noise isolation is mediocre. Overall, a perfect headphone for your average person who “wants a nice pair of headphones” but doesn’t want a big commitment

2 for hours but I could not escape the "colored" sound which I will describe as "turning the tone volume towards bass" with an old stereo receiver. (for those old enough to remember that dial) The overall sound seems colored with a very bassy tone- not the "bass punch" but the entire sound was oddly bassy to my ears, I love a good bass punch thrill when the music calls for like the sound of Audeze planars but this was just "colored" overall. No way was it neutral or close. Everything has it's pluses and minus' but I could not live with the "odd" sound reproduction

(score: 90/100 points) Pros –It does a variety of tasks really good with no real weakness at anything. It’s best for listening enjoyment…not professional studio monitoring as advertised. It has very warm sounding vocals, a balanced sound (with very slight favor to lower mid range & upper bass), and comfortable (loose) fit on my ears/head. It handles thick, polyphonic music passages with ease without distortion…while keeping the main melody/vocals volume and tone quality still cutting through with warmth

Now that said, I have the 300R sitting here, because I feel as though the 300R is basically a little brother to the DT1990. I plug it up, I play the s...

They are a bit muted in the sound signature which can make them less fatiguing than other, more analytical, headphones. Mids - A bit to high level for me, it tended to make punk rock music sound very close and muddied Lows - A bit boomy but very spacious Audio Technica ATH M-50x Highs - Quite good representation, a bit cold though Mids - Nothing special, no major issues though Lows - Too over-emphasized -----------------Comfort--------------- Beyerdynamic DT 770 - Winner Perfect. I wore these on multiple occasions for more than 7 hours and never noticed any pressure points or discomfort. The headband is larger than average to distribute the pressure

I don't hate it. It's got a nice, wide, long split. The comfort is pretty amazing. This is not memory foam
