Hi guys.. I wanna upgrade from a Sony v6 studio monitor headphones. The sonys serve me well for playing software pianos using my digital piano + computer , but the sibilance issues and exaggerated heights are getting to me. Currently trying to "burn them in" hoping that it would tame them...

Hi im starting university at the end of this month and im looking for a pair of headphones that can do it all for me, i would like to use them at home and out and about, however i kinda came to conclusion that there inst really a headphone that can do that (based on my research) so id even...

Hello guys, I am looking to buy a new pair of over the ear headphones to listen to my lovely metal music at work. I was torn between the Bose AE2 (mostly due to HOW DAMN comfortable they are, especially the cushions) and the ATH-M50x Whites. I have read that the M50x come with different ear...

Is there anyone out there who has any experience with pairing ATH-M50's with the FiiO E6? I already have a FiiO E6 amp and are going to buy a ATH-M50X headset soon. Will the amp give the M50's any more bass? Is it a good pair? Will probably invest in a better amp at a later point, but need to...

Hi folks,   I currently have the Creative T20s and Audio Technica ATH M50s being powered by the on-board audio on my ASRock Z77 Extreme4-M (Realtek ALC898). I want to pick up a DAC/Amp for both.   Atm, my top choice is Audioengine D1 for ~$100 used.   I'd greatly appreciate your...

I've been using my Sennheiser HD201s and a pair of gaming (Creative Fatal1ty) headphones to listen to music for a long time now. I want to upgrade, I guess you could say.   Usually I listen to a variety of genres, though I mainly listen to music which can be rather bass heavy - the type of...

I am after a set of headphones for the commute after I was told not to use IEM's by the doc (after an ear infection). I listen to mostly rock/blues some metal and some random stuff like Steam Powered Giraffe. ;)   I posted in this forum as I'm pretty much after an over ear set, though will...

What is the difference between the two headphones? The ATH-M50X is $40 more, and the only difference I can note of is the detachable cable. I don't think thats worth the extra $40, so was there any other changes to it? Build quality / Sound quality?

Hi, I bought a pair of Audio Technica M50X headphones and noticed today that the earcup hinge (forming a C shape around the earcup) makes a clicking noise when I move it. Is this normal, should I be worried or will this go with time? Would love to hear what you think!

Hi, i'm new here, thanks for reading me!   I'm looking for the ideal headphones for me, i can't afford not buying the perfect ones haha, i've saved a long time for these so i want to make it count!     I listen to:   Killswitch Engage A Day To Remember Daughtry Bruno Mars  Bullet For...

HI all. Newbie here wishing to spend up to $200 for some headphones that will sound great with an iPhone 6. If possible, I would like something that is efficient enough to play great with just the iPhone input yet also open up when using a portable amp.   Comfort is very important to me. I...

Hi guys I'm pretty new to the world of headphones so I appreciate any help you could give me!   I am a student on a fairly small budget (around $160, but less would be better) looking for a set of headphones mainly for desktop use without an amp and maybe a little bit of traveling, and had my...

Hi everyone,   I know next to nothing about headphones, and this would be my first serious purchase. I've been doing quite a bit of reading, and it seems like there's both a lot of good and a lot of bad written about the ATH-M50s. I've also got a few other options to think about:   Sony MDR...

Hello everyone!   I'm in a real dilemma here. I am a FPS gamer and music enthusiast who is slightly low on budget. I only have enough money to buy one of Audio Technica M50X and Audio Technica ATH-AD700x. Both are great headphones and have their strength and weaknesses.   Please recommend me...

Kinda need a new pair of headphones for on the go listening. I've narrowed my options down to these two due to the availability within my proximity. I tend to listen to classical, rock, metal, reggae and DnB. I am looking for a set of cans that do not drown out the detail in songs. The...

Hi folks,   I'm curious, does anyone know about the existence of an adaptor that would allow me to use the extra cables that come with the ATH M50x headphones as extension cables? I was looking at buying an extension cable for listening to my living room TT but then I thought, since i...

I recently got my hands on some nee audio technical ath m50's and they sound absolutely nothing like what any reviews said. To me they sound kind of empty and lacking. I don't know if I got a defefective or fake or anything, but right now they just sound like "bleh". Do they need burn in or...

Audio Technica ATH-M50x plug directly to Asus motherboard vs Audio Technica ATH-M50x -> Siberia v2 cable -> Asus motherboard? Will it makes any difference? Please help me!

Title: V-Moda LP, Beats Studio, or Audio Technica ATH-M50x?   Now don't let the title get misleading, the following is my big question: I want to listen to music loudly without people hearing my music. Which of these three is the best in this aspect?   Really no other factors play besides...

I'm looking for something with a little less recessed mids for Rock/Heavy Metal. I love my M50x and they serve their purpose but I want something a little more engaging when it comes to guitar oriented music. I already own Grado's, and they rule for the most part but I need something closed. I'm...

Hi   I'm looking to venture into the world of over the ear headphones after using IEMs for quite a while. My music taste has varied quite a bit and I normally listen to things ranging from Kanye West to Zepplin to Daft Punk and It normally centers around rock/house/rap. I Will predominantly be...

Hey folks,   I was thinking about picking up a pair of headphones from the newly revamped M series of Audio Technica, the ATH- M50x, M40x, M30x, and M20x.   Any opinions on which headphones would give the greatest quality to price ratio? From specs/reviews, the 40x seems to be the winner...

Hello,   I have been reading the forum for days now and decided to ask for advice. I would like to buy a pair of compact closed head-phones for indoor use (office, library etc). I mostly listen classical but not foreign to electronic and rock. I have noted few recommendations, suggesting BD...

There seems to be a significant difference in terms of the mid range frequency: =2941&graphID[]=4313&scale=30]http://graphs.headphone.com/graphCompare.php?graphType=0&graphID[]=2941&graphID[]=4313&scale=30. It seems the M50x's mid range is slightly recessed in comparison to the M50s'. I assume...

I currently own the SONY MDR1-R, but I'm not really satisfied with it, mainly because it doesn't extend deep at all in the bass. So I'm looking for an upgrade. I listen to many genres, but mostly electronic (all kinds: trance, house, dubstep, vocal trance, trap, alternative, and many...
