As the most critically acclaimed model in the M-Series line the ATH-M50 is praised by top audio engineers and pro audio reviewers year after year Now the ATH-M50x professional studio monitor headphones feature the same coveted sonic signature with the added feature of detachable cables From the large aperture drivers sound isolating earcups and robust construction the M50x provides an unmatched experience for the most critical audio professionals.

RTINGS

If you're looking for closed-back headphones that come with a few more accessories, consider the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x. While their sound profile is a bit more bass-heavy than that of the Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO, the Audio-Technica come with three different detachable audio cables, which is great if you happen to break one. They have a similarly comfortable fit and are well-built. Their treble response is also more accurate, resulting in a less bright and analytical sound. Although they don't block out as much background noise as the Beyerdynamic, they leak less audio at high volumes, which is handy if you're using your headphones in a shared space.

Take a look at the Beyerdynamic if you're looking for closed-back headphones with a more neutral sound profile. However, if you like to swap out your audio cables depending on your needs, try the Audio-Technica instead.

If you're looking for closed-back wired headphones with more accessories, try the Audio-Technica AT&Eta;-M50x. Their passive soundstage seems smaller and less natural than the Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO, but they come with three audio cables, including a 10-foot coiled cable, which gives you plenty of space to move around and helps prevent tangles as well. Their sound profile is very neutral, though there's a bit of overemphasis in the bass range that adds some extra boom to your audio. They're also similarly comfortable and well-built. Unfortunately, even though they also have a closed-back design, they block out significantly less ambient noise. They both lack active noise cancelling (ANC), and neither pair is ideal if noise isolation is a priority.

If you prefer a more neutral, accurate bass response, go for the Beyerdynamic, but try the Audio-Technica if you like a slightly bass-rich sound or want a few different audio cables to choose from.

If you want to reduce the risk of audio seeping into your recording, you may prefer the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x. While they trap more heat against your ears than the Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO, their much better leakage performance means far less audio escapes from the earcups, even if you're listening at a high volume. They have a well-balanced sound profile with excellent mid accuracy, so voices are present, detailed, and clear. Even though they're closed-back headphones, their passive soundstage still seems natural, and sound seems to be coming from speakers placed in front of you, which can help if you're mixing tracks. They also have a sturdy build with a coiled cable that can help reduce tangles when you're moving around. There's a 1/8&quot; to 1/4&quot; adapter included that you can use to connect them to a mixer. Unfortunately, they have a sub-par noise isolation performance and don't isolate you from noise like traffic outside your window, although they block out a bit of noise like ambient conversation.

If you want over-ear headphones with a more neutral sound profile, go for the Beyerdynamic, but try the Audio-Technica instead if you want to minimize audio bleed.

If you don't want to worry about battery life or you're looking for high sound quality, check out the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x, the best casual wired headphones under $200 we've tested. These headphones are a popular choice in the music recording community thanks to their comfortable and well-built frame. However, even though they lack a mic, unlike other casual-use headphones like the Anker Soundcore Life Q20 Wireless, they make up for their shortcomings by focusing on a well-balanced and versatile sound. Their bass has a touch of warmth, while vocals and lead instruments are reproduced clearly, making them a solid choice for most kinds of content. They also deliver audio fairly consistently, although they're a little sensitive to fit and positioning on your head.

These over-ears have a great build quality that feels sturdy. Since their audio cable is detachable, you can easily replace it if it gets damaged. Audio-Technica includes three different audio cables, including a coiled one that can stretch up to 10 feet. Unfortunately, even though they're closed-back headphones, they struggle to block out background noise and won't block out almost any of the low rumble of bus engines. They also have a hard time tackling ambient chatter and only come with a soft pouch that won't protect the headphones from impact damage, if you drop or bump them.

The best studio headphones with a closed-back design are the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x. Closed-back headphones are well-suited for tasks like recording audio as their design helps block out some background noise, so you can still monitor your audio without completely tuning out what's going on around you. They also leak less audio than open-backs, which is great for live sessions. However, they still bleed some audio at high volumes, so they may not be the best for extremely noise-sensitive recording situations. While this will likely be fine if you're monitoring a recording session from a separate room, it may be an issue if you're recording yourself.

These popular wired over-ears are well-known within the recording community. They provide amazing value and feel surprisingly well-built and durable despite their relatively low price point. They also come with three different cable options, including a coiled one that can stretch up to 10 feet so that you can move freely around your studio. They're comfortable too, and their ear cups can swivel.

At this price point, you can also find the popular Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO, which are a viable alternative with minor differences. They're similarly comfortable but have a wider, more spacious passive soundstage. They also have an analytical sound profile, which can help highlight imperfections in your audio. However, this sound can also be fatiguing over time.

Audio-Technica is a Japanese brand that makes a range of different headphones. They may be best known for their M-Series headphones, a lineup of closed-back studio headphones intended for professional use. This lineup includes many options, and it's not always obvious which provides the best value for the price. However, their best products stand out for their build and sound quality and are for audiophiles and audio professionals. They also make headphones with active noise cancelling and Bluetooth models for when you're out and about, but we haven't tested as many of them.

The best Audio-Technica headphones we've tested are the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x. These closed-back headphones have a wired design and a very well-balanced sound profile. There's a bit of overemphasis in the bass range that adds extra punch and warmth to audio, but they're suitable for a variety of genres, and their sound will please fans of neutral sound and people looking for studio headphones. They're impressively well-built and have a comfortable fit, although their big ear cups and wide headband make them a bit bulkier than other models from this manufacturer, like the Audio-Technica ATH-M60x, although those headphones have a less neutral sound profile. If you're looking for a cheaper option, the Audio-Technica ATH-M20x are worth considering in the budget range, although they aren't as well-built, and their sound isn't as well-balanced as the M50x or M60x.

The Audio-Technica ATH-M50x are the best headphones for DJing in the upper mid-range we've tested. Although they don't offer nearly the same level of customization as the V-MODA Crossfade 2 Wireless, these over-ears deliver a well-balanced and fairly neutral sound that outperforms their price point. While audio still has a bit of extra warmth, it doesn't overwhelm the rest of your track. Their all-black design isn't too eye-catching, so they shouldn't stand out much, even if you're playing at a more subdued venue. Their audio cable is also detachable, which is nice because you don't need to replace the headphones if it's damaged. They have a lightweight, well-padded design that should make them comfortable to wear for long periods. Their ear cups can also swivel, making it easier to keep tabs on the venue's mix.

Unfortunately, they have poor noise isolation performance, so they aren't ideal if you're looking for headphones to help isolate you from ambient noise. They're also not very portable and only come with a soft pouch to store them in, which doesn't protect them as much as a hard case. The AKG K371, which are similarly performing over-ears, can also be found at this price point. Their sound profile is even more flat and neutral than the Audio-Technica, but they're more prone to inconsistencies in audio delivery. You may especially notice a drop in bass if you have thick hair or wear glasses.

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

 (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

 Price is good ($99), but come on…try to have some balance throughout the registers.  7th place: Grado SR125. (65/100 points) Note: This is the headphone I’ve had for a couple years.

 Comfortable fit. Cons – no bass what-so-ever…thus, bright and airy sound only. It feels like you’re sitting on the 75th row at a concert! These headphones are rather expensive (around $120 bucks when I bought them 2 years ago…$150 today).

HEADPHONE SHOOT-OUT !!!

 The strings were resonating beautifully. Now on to the late 60's and 70's with Simon and Garfunkel, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, and many more. There were details that songs like Time, Money, The Boxer, Yellow Submarine, and many more that I haven't heard before so distinctively. Now with a great pair of headphone's I can truly appreciate the sound and subtleties the artists intended for us to hear

 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

As the title reads, these headphones have meet or rather amazingly exceeded my rather high expectations from the m50's. The range of music that these can be used for is absolutely stunning. I've listened to everything from Beethoven's symphonies/sonatas, Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon', The Smiths, Kanye West's discography, to even Skrillex. The headphone's excel in almost every category of music

  Obviously the noise cancelling headphones are priced much higher than the m50, and rightly so. But I have found that when noise cancellation in activated there is slight ambient noise created by the headphones themselves, which in all honestly may not be a concern to most people but it is for me. 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

Simply Amazing.

 This prevented me from keeping them. I have attached a breakdown of my thoughts below:  ------------Sound Quality------------  Beyerdynamic DT 770 (80 Ohm) - Winner Highs - Quite good representation, much cleaner than Senhiser Mids - Quite good representation Lows - A little closed sounding but overall they are handled well Overall this is how the music should sound. They perform the most similar to my pair of Martin Logan Motion 15's (bookshelf speakers)  Beyerdynamic Premium 990 (32 Ohm) Highs - Similar to the 770's but rather harsh sounding Mids - Nothing special, no major issues Lows - Not as powerful as the 770's but more spacious. Seemed a bit washed out due to the open back design  Senhiser HD 599 (50 Ohm) - Close 2nd Best Highs - Not quite as poppy as they should be

I recently needed to replace my pair of over the ear headphones so I began my search for a good pair of headphones in the $150-$200 range. Immediately Senhiser, Beyerdynamic, and Audio‑Technica stood out. I first received a pair of the Audio‑Technica ATH M-50x which had good sound but were very uncomfortable if worn for more than an hour or so. Then I picked up a pair of the Beyerdynamic DT 770

 Overall the HD 599's were slightly less comfortable than the 770's but the open back quality was convenient and the sound was quite nice. I would have been satisfied with the HD 599's but they were the only pair of headphones I could not drive with my desktop. They produced terrible static. This did not occur when I used the 599's on other devices or when I used other headphones (even those with similar impedance and SPL) driven by my desktop computer

 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

There are better options at this price point

 The treble side of things does pop out a bit more, but it's just bright enough for you to listen to it crystal clear while being mellow enough for your ears to not hurt. At really high volumes there's the S issue though, as I previously mentioned. You can easily fix that with an EQ, and that's the single peak that has given me any issues at all, the rest of the sounds coming out of these are AMAZING.  BUILD AND COMFORT What can I say? I've had them for a year and two months now

 If you have middle sized ears, they will fit just fine within the earpads, no issues, they're comfortable and firm. Your ears will barely if ever touch the drivers, The headband's padding is adequate at best, it could be better. In my experience, they do get tiring for the top of my head after a couple of hours, but nothing a short break can't fix, and I do wear these most of the day.  I've bought more headphones within the time I bought these and now, but I always keep coming back to these sooner or later, and that's gotta say something

 No scratches, no loosened parts, no cracks, NOTHING. These are SOLID. If you were to choose one last pair of headphones and head out to Narnia where you won't be buying any new ones any time soon, these would be the ones. What's more, I recently looked for someone who dismantled them online, or straight up broken them, to have a better look at their insides and I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that the ENTIRE HEADBAND is made out of METAL

Love them! But that whole "flat sound signature" thing is just a lie.

I would consider [Audio Technica M50xbt](https://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATH-M50xBT-Wireless-Bluetooth-Headphones/dp/B07HKVCVSY?currency=USD&language=en_US) its $180 usd on Amazon and has the luxury of being wireless but with the option for a wired connection as well. They are more neutral sound wise but i go running in them while mainly listening to deep house, hip hop and a little bit of soul, i find the bass isn't really lacking and the isolation is pretty good but if they are a bit bright and or the isolation isn't quite where you want you could look into getting some replacement pads like Dekoni elite sheepskins later down the line to increase both bass and isolation

Edit: and as others have mentioned you can normally set the source to mono in accessibility settings on both ios and Android.

My boyfriend has only 20% of his left ear hearing (wears a hearing aid) and none in his right, and I want to find him some mono headphones since stereo sound only gives him half the components of any music he's listening to.  Also looking for over-ear, or any alternative to avoid hearing aid feedback, and Bluetooth if possible. Any ideas are appreciated!!

* budget - low hundreds, but flexible
* fit - over-ear (possibly bone conduction??)
* will plug into phones, computers...Bluetooth highly preferred
* isolation - moderate to high; will use in public
* tonal balance - tending toward bass
* music types - RnB, pop, old school blues, some EDM

Looking for mono, over-ear headphones for hearing-impaired BF

..hence price, and 4 star rating. But, if you want quality sound at an affordable price, without breaking the bank

hence price, and 4 star rating. But, if you want quality sound at an affordable price, without breaking the bank. Pick yourself up a pair of these bad boys.

 For how much I use these, that is a testament to their durability, not that they wear too easy. They are heavily loved. Will be buying a new pair when these are ready to retire. Sound quality is mostly what matters, and they still rock! 🤘 They aren't tippy-top of the line

Have had mine since 2016 and love them!!

ZMF Aeolus- Pretty great can, it honestly feels like a darker and more resolving HD650. Pairs beautifully with my Bottlehead Crack to give a relaxing and enjoyable listen. Focal Clear- Initially, was not too impressed with it but it grew on me with time. Superb clarity and just an amazing all-rounder

I have only heard the clear and hd 600 and 800 out of these. After auditioning all of the focal headphones and the hd800 I bought the clear, but now sold it. For some reason, even tho the clear has better bass, detail, and stage+imaging, I still end up using my HD 600 80% of the time. I am now looking into the Arya or LCD X.
