Wired studio headphones
Audio-Technica's mid-range wired studio monitor: a flatter-sounding alternative to the ATH-M50x, with detachable cables and earcups that swivel for one-ear monitoring.
-
Flatter tuning
Reviewers found it more neutral than the ATH-M50x, with less bass emphasis, which suits listeners who value accuracy over punch.
-
Two detachable cables
It includes a coiled cable that stretches to about 3 m and a 3 m straight cable, both locking in with a bayonet twist. Unlike the ATH-M50x, it has no short straight cable.

Warm ear pads
Reviewers found the synthetic leather pads trap heat and make ears sweat over long sessions. Replacement pads are sold separately.
