Audio Technica ATH-m50x DJ Headphones for Studio (Electronics)

Customer Review

The headphones type Audio Technica ATH-m50x I bought late last year.
My taste in music is very broad: While I hear primarily Metal (Melodic Death, Folk, Black (gauze), Thrash, Death, Power, Metal Core), I hear but also love classical music and (more rarely) HipHop, one should indeed also not be taken too seriously;)

For construction: It is to size adjustable headphones, which are also attached to huge skull (such as my). Individual earphones can be rotated by 180 °, allowing a listening with one hand in order to quickly listen with one ear can, without equal all put on the headphones.
The headphones are still three cables in - a short cable, a long cable (3m) and a coiled cable. The cables can be changed with a bayonet fitting, which is an absolutely perfect solution: So far, all the defects in respect of headphones that I had to complain so far, to lead to cable defects. Thumbs up for this life-like solution!
It is this product is closed headphones. This means that the membrane is covered by the housing to the outside. This has the advantage that external noise is much less penetrate the listener and the damping is very good. Disadvantage is of course that the headphones significantly less transparent than for example the Beyer Dynamics DT-550 or, as I once was allowed to test with a friend, the Beyer Dynamics T-1. The sound is compressed and not quite so easy. Who so get along, its surroundings bothered less and can enjoy undisturbed in his music slightly louder environments.
The damping is excellent and ensures even with my long hair for a good seal.
From the sound characteristics we have a bath: That is to say that the highs and the bass is slightly raised. Compared to the two Beyerdynamics that I have used for comparison, this comes out clearly. However, it does not really bother.
The basses are very clean and are pronounced very deep defined in the cellar. Just HipHop makes with so much cleanliness Bass fun - the samples get body and contour and sound juicy instead vermatscht.
The mids and highs are also excellent, the headphones also manage to build a good stage and can the individual instruments respectively traces well separated from each other.
In rock and metal range convince the headphones, even if here basically would be a little more pronounced mid vote advantageous. There are still outstanding over-the-Ears for Metal.
Impressive is the good quality sound with the ability to present these also weak players in amazing volume.
I have the headphones usually together with the OnePlus One and the AudioQuest DragonFly in use and can so far only positive things.
It is with this combination a very high-quality auditory chain, absolutely suitable for both classical music as well as rock music.

Buy recommendation from me!
