Review on Upgrade Your Studio Gear with Audio-Technica ATH-M40x Professional Studio Monitor Headphones: 90-Degree Swiveling Earcups, Pro-Grade Earpads/Headband, and Detachable Cables by Zia Hoon ᠌

Take it, you won't regret it. For the price you get an easy entry into "how music should sound" ;). Some pros: Excellent balanced sound. Pretty bright, but deaf-closed as closed-type headphones. Isolate well from noise. I write music on them professionally, got a million plays))). Paid off for sure. They fold, but it's a little scary that they will break because they click. Cool big bag included, two cables, can be changed. One is twisted into a spiral, the other is straight, both are very long. An abundance of accessories - any cables, ear pads, pads, even the whole headband can be replaced. There is even an adapter for 6.3 in the kit, and it is screwed tightly onto the stock cable - you won't lose it in the studio. Some cons: When they arrived, one ear was louder than the other. It seems that something has moved in transportation, because when I gave them to the service under warranty to fix it, the problem disappeared. Maybe a cover came off somewhere, or something like that, but now everything is fine. Service said they didn't find the problem. Like I said, it's scary to fold. So you think that now something will finally click. Apparently this is how the mechanism is made. Note to DJs - they are not very comfortable to wear around the neck. If you have short hair around your ears like me, get ready to sweat. Especially now in 40°C heat.
