    Are the Audio-Technica ATH-M50 good for every music genre?

    http://www.head-fi.org/t/591029/ath-m50-the-new-vs-old   No, besides the straight vs short cable, there was a rework on 2012. One has to be wary when one reads reviews whether one is looking at pre 2012 or post 2012 reviews.     Which is precisely why I mention this. His friend may or...

    Are the Audio-Technica ATH-M50 good for every music genre?

    Need Headphone Recommendation

    Need Headphone Recommendation

    Hi,   I'm looking into getting my first non-generic headphone and need some advice. I'm looking for a circumaural headphone. I currently live in a dorm; therefore, it has to have a decent isolation; so, I guess a closed headphone is preferred.   I would mostly use it for gaming and movies...
