Audio Technica ATH-M50

Most headphones and earphones are designed with some kind of bias to their sound profile. Usually heavy bass, for rockin' tunes. Studio monitor headphones, on the other hand, are careful to reproduce an audio signal exactly as it is supplied by the audio device.
Pros:
  • Precise audio reproduction
  • Solid construction
  • Screw-on 6.3mm adaptor
Cons:
  • Can get hot and uncomfortable
  • Need to be a fan of ‘flat' sound

Audio-Technica ATH-M50S Headphone Review

Overall, the Audio-Technica M50s headphones represent a very good value for what they offer - an accurate, if lively, presentation of music. Uncompromising in their musical reproduction, don't expect that basement recorded podcast to sound good on them but your uncompressed music will come through...
Pros:
  • Good isolation
  • Linear bass response
Cons:
  • Tight fit

Totally satisfied

These cans came recommended by multiple DJs and producers when I asked for suggestions in the $200 price range for a casual listener. (I paid less than that.) The voice-chat headphones I had been using seemed just fine until the M50s showed me what I had been missing from my music.

"Great for casual listening/dj'ing, decent for mixing"

These are excellent all around cans, if you can only get one pair for casual listening and mixing in a project studio, these should be considered. They are not very well suited for tracking, because the isolation is surprisingly bad considering how snug they form to your head and ears.

Great set of headphones

Although I don't have experience with a lot of headphones, the sound quality of these are amazing. Works well outputting from a laptop. I haven't used it with my iphone yet. Comes with a nice bag and the plugs are high quality. I'm a little weary about carrying this around in my laptop bag.
Pros:
  • Sound quality is amazing.- very light- folds so it's portable- screw on adapter and plug feels like high quality
Cons:
  • - plastic feel feels like it won't last long

The Audio Technica ATH-M50

There's good reason the Audio Technica ATH-M50 is one of the most commonly recommended headphones in the world of headphone enthusiasts. While the highs are a bit bright, and the bass a bit loose, the M50 delivers remarkably well-balanced performance for headphones in this price range.
