" ... Fantastic audio quality. ... "
" ... You get real sound and not a preset exactly what you need when adjusting frequencies ... "
" ... Thankfully, I have a Behringer UMC204HD which I use as sound input, and it happens to have a DAC as well. ... "
" ... The build quality is fenomenal and the sound is pure christal. ... "
" ... I use them for DJing and music production. ... It pushes the frequencies you would need to hear as a musician and has great sound quality. ... "
" ... I fell into the hype, I think they sound good but not as good as I thought they would, people over hype em. ... "
" ... I play piano and guitar and demand natural sound, not colored sound. ... When deep low notes are played, you hear these natural low notes with a powerful punch only during those notes! ... The sound from this wired version is identical to the newer wireless model which is impressive! ... As a musician, this outperforms the Bose , Marantz and Yamaha sound monitor models. ... "

" ... Every "daily use" headphone I have ever owned lasted less than 1 year to under 2 years at the most. ... "
" ... My ears measure 2.3" in length and these seem to fit nicely. ... I did experience some discomfort with one ear after one hour, due to fit, but I am satisfied with the comfort level and sound quality of these headphones. ... "
" ... these are by far the best headphones i've owned. ... "
" ... The only thing I recommend if you purchase these headphones is to get the BRAINWAVZ memory foam ear cushions as they are 10x more comfortable and highly recommended with the AudioTechnica community. ... "
" ... I recommend these to anyone who's looking for a great pair of headphones for cheap. ... "
" ... I am a fan of the headphones design, these are the first headphones that do not hurt or irritate my ear after long use with my glasses. ... "
" ... I've been using these for roughly a year or so, and at this point i can comfortably say that these are as good as everyone else made them out to be. ... However, after stretching them out every time i felt too tight, and with prolonged use, these headphones fit comfortably into my head now. ... "
" ... I waited years to finally pull the trigger on these headphones and now I hate myself for waiting so long. ... Truely worth the money to open up an entire new world of sound to your ears. ... "

" ... Best headphone that I have used so far. ... A perfect headphone choice for people that listen to wide variety of music as flat sound signature makes any genre sound as it should be. ... "
" ... And of course they had better be for $150+ headphones. ... I know Amazon sometimes lumps reviews for multiple products together, so the model I got was the Audio-technica MTH-M50x black headphones with the cord. ... "
" ... For the price, I don't think there's any headphone out there that could beat the sound quality of the M50x. ... "
" ... Amazing sound but terrible confort for such a good headphones. ... "
" ... Simply the best headphones out there. ... "
" ... I really do love these headphones i can't believe how good they sound. ... "

" ... they are worth every penny! ... "
" ... After about a week of doing reviews and comparing specifications and price ranging I went with a hunch and decided to go with the same manufacturer as my condenser microphone. ... "
" ... Quality and comfort don't get better than this for the price! ... "
" ... Price is very fair. ... "
" ... Totally worth the $150 price tag, but if you can get them for cheaper - you'd be foolish not to grab these. ... "
" ... The quality of sound these headphones give is well-known but their durability is what makes them worth getting over others in this price range. ... "

" ... dogs, baby, Coldplay), and has a decent kick to the bass without being solely focused the low end like Beats and its ilk. ... "
" ... The lows are audible, but not very loud, resulting in a balanced listening experience. ... "
" ... They are very good, would appreciate more bass ... "
" ... Bass is consistent and rumbly. ... Oscillating bass lines are distinct and audible. ... Mids and Trebs are clean and separate from the bass creating a full, rich sound. ... "
" ... You can feel the bass on a rap track vibrate, but not too much that it would feel excessive. ... The low end on rock guitars or bass synths sounds full, fat, and vibrant. ... They provide plenty of mid-range and great bass, but after listening to the bright high end on these, I’m starting to feel that bass is way overrated and now I listen much more for hi hats, crashes, and claps . ...

" ... and yeah, the v-curve can definitely be tamed via eq. ... "
" ... In terms of sound quality, if youre on a desktop, it should be a sin to not have some sort of EQ or amp or whatever. ... "
