Review on 🎧 Black Audio-Technica ATH-M50x Headphones by Micha Sarnowski ᠌

Those are the best headphones you can buy at this price point. I would recommend it if you are not afraid of wires (something a fan of good sound shouldn't be) and your needs for sound detail are not particularly specific (you are not an experienced sound engineer). offers benefits: Three cables of varying lengths was a nice touch for the packaging. The headphones fold up neatly without any slop, making them perfect for transport. Don't believe the naysayers who comment on how heavy or how stiff the temple is; after a few wears, you won't even notice the difference in either quality. The snug fit around the ears also means that your headphones will last longer (3-4 years without problems). About the audio. Generally speaking, the music is quite tidy and sounds nice. I found this short but to-the-point article on the power of presence online. In other words, the headphones' closed design doesn't prevent them from competing favorably with numerous open models in terms of ambience and volume. The M50x has a bit too much bass for my taste, and the mid-voices can get buried at times when listening to things like fugues, which is why I updated to the Sennheiser HD 449s (quite comparable in specs). The frequency response is otherwise flat, therefore this is not an issue. Unfortunately, the noise reduction here is passive and not particularly effective. That is, even at very high volumes, people around you will be able to hear you somewhat. Those are the approximate costs.
