Audio-Technica ATH-M50x Professional Monitor Headphones + Slappa Full Sized HardBody PRO Headphone Case (SL-HP-07)

The sound is amazing! I purchased these after much research, primarily for use in electronic music production monitoring and mixing. I wanted the ability to mix and monitor through the phones or through monitor speakers without a significant difference in what Im hearing. There is little difference in the range and quality between these phones and the 6 KRK Rockits that are used as monitor speakers. The phones and speakers compliment each other quite nicely.

Love the sound quality, best investment that will last.

I would give this 3.5 stars because what I could hear sounded very good & it tuned out a lot of noise around me but not as much as I hoped. It was defective. I could only hear the background music. When I listened to TV I only heard the music but could not hear any of the characters talking. When I listened to songs, I heard the background music. I barely heard the back up vocals and I could not hear the main singer at all. What I could hear sounded good though. The case was as big as my two hands put together. It is really big.

Simply the best sounding headphones under $300 money can buy. Period. And this is not only my opinion - every audiophile magazine, website or list says the same!

these are a fantastic pair of headphones. i used them once and they serve a dual purpose of blocking out external sound and providing crystal clear sound. Will provide a detailed review once i have used it some more....stay tuned...

My husband had been looking for professional headphones for some time and this was the set he wanted. I bought it for him and he loves them! They work great, block out all outside noise. He even uses them on his xbox, but only if hes playing single player because there is no microphone otherwise theyd be perfect. We highly recommend these headphones, well worth the price!

Ordered it 3 years ago, and still using it, still good as new. Best efficient cost-price headphone you would ever need.

All my life Ive used the cheap earbuds airlines give you to watch movies in-flight or, slightly better, the Apple buds that come with your phone. Oh, dear reader, if you have been using similar means for your sky high entertainment audio, please dont hesitate to upgrade to Audio-Technica. Life is too short. Pull the trigger. The cost is worth it. These are not noise-canceling, but since the headphones are over the ear, they do block out quite a bit of screaming babies and the like. This purchase will feel like you upgraded your coach seat to first class, at least in terms of sound. The overall experience to your flight quality of life is like nestling into your own audio cocoon. I wear these on 10 hour trips to London and I occasionally remove them to let my ears breathe briefly, but, otherwise, they dont turn into a sweat box and remain comfortable. One tip for airline use: some seats have an audio jack in the arm rest next to your leg, so your audio cable sticks into your leg (depending on the height of your legs); consider buying an inexpensive 90 degree audio adapter (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01NBJW3T5/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_10) just in case you find yourself in this circumstance. Theres plenty of room in the headphone case to store the adapter. Additionally: I struggled to decide between which model of Audio-Technica to purchase: I would strongly recommend a version that rotates to lay flat on the top of your chest. Its totally worth the extra cost. If you take good care of these headphones, my impression of the build quality is they will last for years, so the extra expense up front for the lay flat feature is well worth it. Lastly, I recently discovered the magnitude of joy and comfort a seat pad gives you on long flights and highly recommend you get some sort of pad like this one, but just note that the increased height of this pad puts your leg closer to the audio jack output if its in the arm rest; hence the need for the 90 degree audio adapter: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01EBDV9BU/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_87

2nd set of same headphones for me loaned first ones out. Used for monitoring FOH mixing, great job for the price. Clear sound, good separation of freq, and just enough isolation to mix,

My SOL Master Tracks recently fell apart after only 2 years of use, and I had to replace them quickly. My SOLs were a little on the bassier side, which I really liked, but Ill get used to these more balanced headphones. They feel great and dont make my ears hurt after wearing them 4+ hours at a time. Plenty of cables come with the headphones and its nice that theres even a 1/4 adapter. The only thing I dislike about these headphones is how much quieter they are than my SOLs, even though the SOLs were on the bassier side.
