Overview

Wired streaming headset

A streaming headset that adds a cardioid condenser boom mic, based on Audio-Technica's 20 Series microphones, to the ATH-M50x. This version has separate 3.5 mm headphone and XLR mic plugs, so the mic needs an audio interface or mixer.

  • XLR condenser mic

    The mic needs 11–52 V phantom power through its XLR plug, so it connects to an audio interface or mixer rather than a computer's mic jack. Without one, the headset works only as headphones.

  • Flip-to-mute boom

    Flipping the boom arm up mutes the mic, and a flexible section lets it be moved closer to or further from the mouth.

  • Two sets of ear pads

    The fitted pads have a breathable mesh face, and the ATH-M50x's all-leatherette pads are included as an alternative.

Cable

The 2 m cable is fixed. It ends in a 3.5 mm headphone plug, with a 6.35 mm adapter included, and an XLR mic plug.
