Audio-Technica ATH-M50x: Stellar sequel to one of our favorite pairs of headphones (review)
Quibbles aside, the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x headphones are a modestly improved version of the already spectacular model they're based on, and among the best-sounding pairs you'll find for less than $200.
Pros:
- The Audio-Technica ATH-M50x Professional Studio Monitor Headphones offer excellent build quality and very detailed, balanced sound with tight bass
- They're also very comfortable and have slightly more cushiony earcups along with a detachable-cord design (three cords are included)
Cons:
- There's no integrated microphone for making cell phone calls and the bulkier design makes them less suitable for mobile use

Audio-Technica ATH-M50x review: The best-sounding headphones under $200 get (slightly) better
Quibbles aside, the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x headphones are a modestly improved version of the already spectacular model they're based on, and among the best-sounding pairs you'll find for less than $200. One of the reasons Audio-Technica's ATH-M50 headphones became popular was that they were sort of the anti-Beats. Or, put another way, they were the headphones for "smart" listeners who looked down on people who overpaid and got suckered into the whole Beats marketing machine.
Pros:
- The Audio-Technica ATH-M50x Professional Studio Monitor Headphones offer excellent build quality and very detailed, balanced sound with tight bass
- They're also very comfortable and have slightly more cushiony earcups along with a detachable-cord design (three cords are included).
Cons:
- There's no integrated microphone for making cell phone calls and the bulkier design makes them less suitable for mobile use.

Great sound, poor comfort
This is such a bittersweet product, it has arguably among the very best sounds for this kind of price range, a touch more bass than the M40X due to the larger drivers, a touch less high end than the M50 preceding it, 3 removable cables of different lenghts, it was just right for me in several ways...

- Good separation

Pros:
- Lively
- engaging sound
- Relatively affordable
- Good for EDM

Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT
The Jeep Wrangler started as a true utility vehicle - its simple body panels and spartan interior reflected that it was designed for people that valued off-road capability over on-road luxury.
