Not like original

Re-bought these after my old ones finally died, but there is a quality difference. Not sure if changes of production in general, or if the product is not legit.. but they are good enough to use.

Best dollar for performance headphones, even after 9 years

Reviewed in Canada on July 4, 2024

Colour Name: BlackStyle: WiredPattern Name: HeadphoneVerified Purchase

Been using these for 9 years for music, media and games. Super convenient to have multiple cables and great folding mechanism, so you can travel with them easily. Sound quality is simply perfect for general use and focused listening sessions. Had to replace the earpads a couple of times, but plenty of aftermarket options are available. The value and sound quality for the price really doesn't get any better and I would recommend these to anyone.

Bought on sale to replace my old sennheiser headphones. These are very good quality headphones for a very reasonable price when on sale. Well made, comfortable, comes with several cables. Average noise cancellation though.

One of the best within this price point - but NOT ideal for bassheads

Reviewed in Canada on November 18, 2016

Colour Name: BlackStyle: WiredPattern Name: HeadphoneVerified Purchase

I have quite a few headphones to compare and the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x excels in clarity, mostly in mids and highs. It is meant for studio use and that means it does not artificially alters the sound source and thus this is not a headphone for baseheads. The sound signature is pure, cristal clear, with competent bass, but not overpowering the other frequencies. This is not going to rumble your head with the sub-base that you can not hear but only feel. But that is not to say that the bass is not good, because it is - just do not expect extra bass added to your tracks. What you can expect instead is to rediscover your favorite songs, with added clarity, resolution and details. Treeble and midrange are as good as you can get for this price point, and the only other eadphone I like better at this price point, precisely because it has a warmer signature, with more pronounced bass, is thie V-Moda Crossfade M-100. So, despite preferring the signature of the M-100, which is more powerful and impactful, with that deep sub-bass that rumbles your head, the M50x is an amazing headphone that has mode forward and crital midrange and treeble than the M-100, whch has become my favorite benchmark for this price point.

As far as build quality, the M50x is well built and feels solid in your hand, but that is achieved due to the use of good quality plastics and metal on some key parts only. It does not feel premium, just feels well built. Kind of 7 out of 10 score at most. It is not meant to withstand the harshness of professional DJ work, instead is more focused on critical listening on studio environment, and I think it can easily handle this type of duty, but I also think it would not last very long in the hands of professional DJs, which are always throwing around their gear. But, the M50x is not meant for DJs, I am just mentioning this to make a point that the quality of the build is good, but is not excellent by any means.

The M50x is very comfortable to use and the ear pads have enough room to completely go around your ears, so there is no discomfort of having your ears pressed by the ear pads on some parts. It is very comfortable indeed.

Hope this shor treview helps and in the end, it is very hard to regret buying this headphone - expect for bassheads I would say.

They're actually amazing

Reviewed in Canada on July 23, 2023

I was looking for a pair of professional monitor headphones that could deliver accurate and balanced sound. I was not disappointed by the M50X

They're very comfortable to wear, with soft ear pads and an adjustable headband. They are also very durable, with a sturdy metal frame and detachable cables. The sound quality is amazing, with clear highs, mids and lows. The bass is not overpowering. The soundstage is wide and immersive, with excellent separation and detail. The headphones are also very isolating, blocking out most of the ambient noise.

These are worth the price and are better than so called "gaming headphones."

Best Pair of Headphones I've Owned

Reviewed in Canada on February 17, 2016

Colour Name: BlackStyle: WiredPattern Name: HeadphoneVerified Purchase

I have had these headphones for a little over a week now. Prior to purchasing these headphones, my main pair were the Apple ear buds that come with the iPhone. I decided that I wanted to pick up a pair of high end headphones for once in my life. I did a TON of research; YouTube reviews, CNET reviews, PC Mag reviews...I must have read close to a hundred different reviews and the consensus was that these headphones were the top in this price range.

I did not want to spend to gross amount of headphones, but $200 seemed fairly reasonable compared to other "high-end" headphones. My two main criteria for a pair of headphones was, #1 sound quality and #2 comfort. I purchased these headphones to use at my desk. I work behind a desk for 8+ hours a day and I wanted a quality sounding comfortable pair.

When it comes to comfort, these are great. I leave them on my ears all day for hours on end. They are not too hot, my ears never sweat, and after a while I don't even realize I'm wearing them. 10 of 10 for comfort.

As far as sound quality, they are spectacular. The sound is crisp, clear, and with the perfect amount of bass. I know that some people say there is not enough bass, but I find it is just right. I have never enjoyed music as much as when I'm using these headphones. Much cheaper for quality sound than buying a high-end set of speakers. 10 of 10 for sound.

If I had to levy one negative, and I'm nitpicking with this, it would be the sound bleed. When the volume on my laptop is about 65 or less there is no bleeding of sound. If I crank the volume above 70, then your music can be heard by someone in the same room (assuming the room is quiet). I don't know if other headphones do this better or worse, but if you like to listen to music very loud there will be some sound bleeding. If you listen to music at a "reasonable" level (like 60% or less) then this shouldn't be an issue.

All around a GREAT set of headphones that won't break the bank.

Love the feel and sound of them. I have a pretty big head and they fit me on the smallest setting so if you have a small head that would be the only thing you might not like the fit. But other then that very light but still I think will will take a beating.

Excellent achat

J'étais déjà un utilisateur de ATH M50 que j'ai malencontreusement brisé. J'aimais le son car il est transparent, mais il manquait de rondeur dans les basses, c'était même flat. J'ai donc hésité avant d'acheter les ATH MX50. Je regardais vers Sennheiser qui offre des basses plus rondes mais comme je n'avais pas pu écouter les modèles, là aussi j'hésitais. Finalement j'ai décidé de demeurer fidèle à ATH et j'ai été agréablement surpris par la rondeur des basses. Ils valent vraiment la peine qualité prix.
