What headphone is that?
+
Audio-Technica R70x.
Correct! Thank you thatbeatsguy, this headphone is phenomenal. For the first time, I feel that the premium price tag is actually worth it (for its target audience). The Audio Technica r70x is not for consumers who wish to have the best clarity or the most bass. However, it is for people who enjoy hearing a great tonal balance inside their homes, (no peaks or dips in the frequency as far as I can tell). It's an open back headphone that is slightly smaller than the msr7s. This is the headphone I've been waiting for, one that is warm, detailed, and expansive in both width and depth. Imagery in this headphone is more than great, especially for video games. Of course, this headphone has the mindset of a reference, which I most certainly agree with.
Take caution of the sound signature however. While I do list these positive traits, there are negatives. The dynamics definitely could be better, and the mids could use just slightly more detail, but I'd rather not have more detail thank you. I would rather enjoy hearing a warm signature than the analytical/bassy past audio technica heapdhones. This has slightly less bass than the msr7s, but that doesn't mean it lacks (except in the sub-bass).
