Audio-Technica ATH-M20x Professional Studio Monitor Headphones, Black

Great headphones, terrible for mixing. They work great for gaming and netflix, although they are pretty bass heavy. The bass easily gets muddy and messes with the mids and highs. For the price, you can't beat these for everyday use, but if you're mixing music or editing videos get a different pair. The m40x has a much more accurate sound and is worth the extra money. I haven't had any durability issues with these, but the first thing I did when I got them was order new ear cups because the ones that come with it are pretty uncomfortable.

Sounds amazing for its price, I am really impressed and happy I bought these headphones. There's no carrying case, Its definitely easy to use all you do is just plug it into the interface or laptop and it sounds amazing. For anyone wondering there's no software that comes with it.

The Audio-Technica ATH-M20x Professional Studio Monitor Headphones is the best pair of headphones I have owned. When my other headphones gave out, just from normal wear and tear, I asked my friends and family what kind of headphones to buy, and they all said to get Audio-Technicas. So I took their recommendation and bought this pair. There are many pros and very few cons to these headphones that I will explain later. Pros • The price o These headphones are $49.00, a pretty low price for headphones. The last pair of headphones I owned, HyperX clouds, cost $100, and I can already tell the audio quality is better; but more on that later. In addition to the low price these headphones have free 2-day shipping if you have Amazon Prime. • Audio Quality o Like I previously stated this pair of headphones out performed my old pair in playing music, watching TV or movies, and playing video games. The sound is crisp and clear and has a good range. The quality is really amazing for a pair of headphones this cheap. • Design o I really like the design of these headphones, it is simple and for me I don’t need a fancy design to be satisfied, but some people might want a flashier or more futuristic design. A little con inside this pro is that it only comes in one color if you care about that: personally I don’t. Another part of the design that I like is the long cord, the last pair that I owned I could not even lean back in my chair on my computer using it. So far it hasn’t been tangled too terribly like I expected, but I only use it at my computer so I have not worn them outside yet. Cons • No good place to put mod mic o I use these headphones for playing PC games and talking with my friends so I needed a place to put a mod mic. The one spot that worked, right below the logo on the side, is a little far away from my mouth so I am pretty quiet. This is a really minor inconvenience, but something to consider if you are going to buy a mod mic with this pair of headphones. • No noise cancelling o If you are planning to wear these on an airplane or some other noisy place beware that these do not have the best noise cancelling. They have big ear cuffs that provide some natural noise cancelling, but do not have any real noise cancelling technology. The lack of noise cancelling does make sense with the low price point. Overall I would definitely recommend this pair of headphones to my friends and family. It is a low price with good audio quality and a solid design. The minor cons do not affect my rating. This is a great product and I will continue to buy their products and recommend them to my friends and family.

I bought these headphones to use with my Beacn Studio to have mic monitoring. Previously I was using IEMs with a 10mm driver but decided to buy these to keep amazing audio quality (which this definitely has as they have 40mm drivers). I do want to say the driver size between the 2 doesn't matter as IEMs function differently, but worth pointing out for anyone wondering. The physical quality is pretty good for the price, I wish they folded in more but they look very sleek. The cord is long!! I personally LOVE that as I can walk away from my desk and keep them on. I'm not a fan of wireless headphones and love sturdy the cable is. I do wish I could unplug my headset from the cable but if I remember correctly Audio-Technica has a different headset that can do that. But for $60? I'm not complaining any further as they make up for it with the quality of audio inside the headphones. I purchased the headphones in White and they are beautiful. I love how sleek the appearance is, and it blends in well with the rest of my setup. My only complaint is I can't wear these headphones for long periods of time if I have my glasses on. They squeeze so badly and I personally can't handle it for longer than 30 minutes. That is the original reason I switched to IEMs, but I love the audio quality of the M20x, so I'm only taking off 1 star. Personally, I will continue to use these headphones with my IEMs but only for the fact I wear my headphones usually for hours at a time.

I purchased these for my clients to use in the booth. They are nice and clear. The last pair of headphones I had sounded muffled compared to these. The clarity is awesome and they are comfortable for long periods.
