Audio Technica ATH-M50x vs Takstar Pro 82

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

The soundstage is good enough for a closed-back, and I don't feel claustrophobic using it. Not to mention being super easy to drive, give me the conclusion that this headphone is as close as Fire and Forget headphone for me. You don't need to hassle with anything and you're guaranteed at least a serviceable degree of sound quality for your ear.

(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

Get obscenely comfortable (they are also incredibly light) with angled sheepskins, and aren't bad with stock pads at all. Sounds is quite good at their price, and the bass can be 'adjusted' (I like the middle setting.).

If you are a travelling person that is exposed to lots of noisy situations the qc15 or the and-9's are the better fit for you. I myself transit much of the time. However, the loudness at which I play my music blocks out much of the noise (with the m50s which is around 50%). It all depends on how much noise that surrounds an individual

Takstar Pro 82 are wired headphones that seal and isolate extremely well. Sound good enough and are pretty cheap

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

By far, these have been the most comfortable headphones I have ever owned, out of the box. These literally MELT onto your ears. I'm not sure why these aren't more popular because they're great. They look heavier than they actually are, the earcups fully articulate so you can lay the headphone flat on a desk
