Good sound medium comfort

Sounds great, but the ear pads feels cheap. Because there are only a very thin strip of padding on the head band, it puts a lot of pressure on my slightly larger head. It really does sound great, it would be a lot nicer if it was more confortable too.

I’ve got a fat head…

They sound great. Perfect. Just hurt the top of my head. The shape of my head might be weird. I don’t know.

Really good

This is my 5th pair I have bought
I buy them for my sons who use them for gaming
Excellent sound stage for a closed Back headset
Cups are a bit crap so I’d recommend buying some cow hide or similar then you have a seriously good headset
Better than the M50 just need to have a bit more strength in the build. Mind you my kids just rip them off there head and throw them on the ground as long as you don’t do that they should last

A great purchase for the price

I purchased these headphones as an affordable option for DJ'ing at home and they are great! The sound is great for I use them for. The mids could be a bit better, but nothing to complain about too much. They are also quite comfy, though I'm not wearing them constantly.

The chords they come with are quite long, but the coiled one (though technically longer), is shorter. For use at home I don't find this an issue, but it could be if you wanted them for daily use/commuting.

Good value but not quite what I expected

I’ve become a fan of Audio Technica headphones, and expected these to be an affordable option for pretty robust daily use. Build is great and for the money, reasonable audio quality… just not quite what I expected, or need, given my hearing. The ATH-M50x deliver better sound so I’ve bought those as my preferred option. These ones will be for studio guests.

OK sound but cheap ear pads

I've owned a these for 3 years but they look like 10 years old. I look after gear, but the ear pads are clearly made of inferior product. The super thin synthetic vinyl covering foam has literally disintegrated and makes them worthless. I would not recommend these headphones to anyone.

A great all rounder.

Great build quality and thoughtfulness in design. I like that it folds away and the cord detaches. The ear cushions are comfortable even with extended use. The sound is crisp, punchy and great for music, gaming and general use. There's no noise cancelling, but it deadens outside sound well enough. My only complaint is that your ears get hot with extended use. All round, I recommend them.
