The editors liked
Added swappable twist-lock cable completes M50
M40x trappings make for great value
Consistently good sound
The Audio Technica ATH-M50xBT offers great sound quality both with and without wires. They have an open sound with enough bass to satisfy most users. The Bluetooth controls are well integrated and the inclusion of a separate cable with an integrated mic i
The Audio-Technica ATH-M50x Professional Studio Monitor Headphones offer excellent build quality and very detailed
Balanced sound with tight bass. They're also very comfortable and have slightly more cushiony earcups along with a detachable-cord design (
The editors didn't like
Midrange of M30x can be a bit harsh
Unlike many headphones at this price
There's no noise cancelling. The sound can be a little too forward in noisy environments
Resulting in less natural sound. The power button is in an awkward spot
There's no integrated microphone for making cell phone calls and the bulkier design makes them less suitable for mobile use

Abstract: The ATH M50 has long been a studio favourite. Is this new x-series version a worthwhile improvement?Audio-Technica's ATH M50 headphones have been a popular studio workhorse since their introduction. Lightweight and comfortable enough for prolonged use, of...
The Audio Technica ATH-M50x is the latest revision of a legendary headphone, and with this iteration I feel their position in the pantheon of all-time great headphones is permanently secure. Overall tonal balance is quite good, bass is tight and well exte...

Great looking, Great build quality, Excellent sound, Long cords provided
Cord is proprietary, Soundstage is lacking
You can easily see why these headphones are rated so highly. The sound, the looks, and the build quality all combine to make an awesome package. Oh, and they're under $200 dollars too...
Abstract: Great news! Audio-Technica has recently introduced its revamped line of studio-grade and very much professional over-ear headphones. One of them being a new mid-level flagship successor to one of the more well known and admired headphones in recent yea...
Despite this, the M50x aren't bad headphones. They're comfortable and robust, fun to listen to and great value for money. In comparison to its rivals, it's the only set of headphones that combines a versatile design and a fun sound signature.Audio-Technic...

Battery life lasts for what seems like forever, Great sound quality for the affordable price point (including aptX and Hi-Res Audio), Bass that really hits - unlike some lesser headphones, Solid Bluetooth connectivity
Big and bulky design is starting to look dated, Clunky on-ear button controls, Limited isolation can adjust audio profile in certain environments, No noise-cancelling limits appeal somewhat, Micro-USB is dated (should be USB-C)
We've got a lot of love for the Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT Bluetooth over-ear headphones. From an audio perspective there's a lot of clout, with great balance and precision from these affordable cans. The comfortable wear for long periods and a battery lif...
Excellent sound quality, Very capable Bluetooth implementation, Comfy and well made
Call quality not great, Controls a little fiddly, Could do with USB-C rather than USB- A
In case you didn't notice from the 2,000 odd words preceding this, I like the M50xBT very much. It is hard to over emphasise how good a job Audio Technica has done with the conversion to wireless operation. They've kept the character of the headphone inta...

A good listen, Long battery life, Comfortable,
A touch bass-heavy, No active noise-cancelling, Make your ears warm,
The Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT headphones carry on the good work started by their wired siblings - adding to the mix a strong wireless connection over Bluetooth, with good battery life and the option of going wired if you get caught short for power.They're...

Nice simple design
No noise cancellation
Not as dispassionate as their wired counterparts, and all the better for it. With an impressive 40 hours of battery life on a full charge, simple design and the very fact they pay as much attention to the finer details in a piece of music as the broad st...
