Customer Ratings & Reviews

I had in the past many over the ears headphones of different brands and prices. None of them had an excellent or even a good sound. I do a lot of recording and needed a really good headphones and bought this Audio-Technica headphones and I was blown away by the sound reproduction and ambient noice isolation, excellent low, mid and hight frequencies. I use them all the time to monitor my recordings and they always perform great. I even bought another pair to take them along when traveling. I love them and highly recommend them.

Bought these to replace a gaming headset because I wanted something I could also listen to music with,and I no longer needed a built in mic. My current headset is a HyperX cloud II pro. The reviews for sound quality are definitely correct, listening to games is DRASTICALLY different as I can now hear all the mids that my current headset "erased". Music, however, was essentially unchanged. The problem is I would have expected the design to be better. The entire body is plastic, while my hyperx has at least a metal construction. The cushioning is also pretty bad, they're probably one of the most uncomfortable headsets I've ever worn. The arch is also really stiff, I'm guessing to help with noise cancellation, but since there's almost no padding on the ears it makes them hurt and gives me a headache. I'm going to try and see if this gets better with use, but right now they're going back.

Sound is ok, but not nearly loud enough for the price. If you plan on cranking up and rocking out, these are not the ones. At the loudest setting, I can still hear my wife nagging. I mean talking.
