Review: Amazing headphones - Update - my main pair of headphones has finally seen its last day and here I am, as promised when I did this review, repurchasing these. I was secretly looking forward to mine failing I have to admit. Really comfortable to wear for long periods. The cord is a good length and they feel pretty robust and fairly light too. They fit well on different sized heads as you can easily adjust them and the sound quality is great too. I ended up returning them because I had lost my main pair and ended up locating them again so I no longer required these. However, if my main pair ever fails me this will be my go to for purchase again as I really enjoyed my time with them. There’s a lot of clarity in the sound which is exactly what I need when field recording. I also enjoyed the comfortability whilst recording for long sessions too. I’ve also had issues with headphones in the past always dropping off my head which is really frustrating. This wasn’t a problem with these at all. I’d highly recommend them and I’m sure I’ll be purchasing them again in the future once my current headphones fail eventually. I also think the price is really reasonable for these. What you get for the price is great.
Review: Brilliant studio headphones for the price. - Pros: Excellent sound quality. Difference between this model and the 50 model is hard to notice. Comfortable ear cups: I have small but pokey out ears and these cups are comfortable for me to wear for 2 hours or more. Long cable: more than enough cable for most use cases, and it comes with the full size jack plug adapter. Noise suppression: they’re not noise cancelling headphones but they do a brilliant job of suppressing the background noises with just the padded ear cups. Cons: the only little thing I can pick with these is that the construction materials feel a bit cheap, but it doesn’t effect the sound quality at all, and won’t make you feel like you bought a cheap product as the sound quality outweighs it heavily. Great to buy if you’re moving up from those cheaper headphones and want something that gives an accurate representation of the audio you’re working with. Good bass representation, clarity between frequencies, the high end seems the slightest bit lacking, but overall the sound quality is very good and very close to the 50 model.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these any good for listening to Heavy/Death Metal?**
A: Yes, I use an 8 string myself and it's absolutely perfect - I've tried very expensive cans from Ultrasone and Bose that do not measure up to the humble 20x - enjoy

**Q: How do these compare with the more pricey ath m50s?**
A: Well I have to be honest - the M50's are better. But these aren't bad, however they are not for portable use at all because of the massive wire. And the noise isolation works, but it's not stellar. However the headphones are a great all-rounder. Hope this helps.

**Q: What's the mid range like on these headphones - is it clear? I dislike phones that are bass heavy, and obviously don't want anything too tinny either.**
A: Hi - I Use these headphones in my home recoding studio. I bought one set was impressed so bought a second pair. In my view you could pay twice the price and not get as good a quality. They are rounded have a balanced frequency response and are robust but light in physical structure and Comfortable. I would recommend but if they did not suit- you haven't spent a fortune.Am

**Q: I think i have a large head.... are these adaptable for the 'larger noggin'?' previous at headphones (ath) were way too tight. ta.**
A: I think they will fit you, because they are very large headphones.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty AWESOOOOME
*by K***E on 4 January 2016*

Really good sound on these headphones. Where normal headphones are louder and more violent these days, these give a sense of space. Which is very good in my opinion. The sound is also very clear, I discovered things in songs that i never heard before, past headphones I've worn have focussed on bass. Whereas this is more flat, the bass is still very good. I was worried that the 47 ohm impedence would mean a quieter volume on my phone, but there was no problem at all. There's a bit of sound leakage from what I've heard. When i play music (on the iphone, about 75% volume) and clasp the 'phones together, a bit of sound leaks out. The headphones are very comfortable, they're smaller than you think. They are just the right tightness, and are very lightweight. One problem though, is that my ears get quite sweaty after wearing these, It's not noticeable when wearing, but after I take them off. These are my first pair of studio headphones, bought for £32 on this website. Worth it in my opinion, and I'm not an audiophile, but these headphones might just introduce me to that world. Sound: 8.5/10 Comfort: 8.5/10 Durability: Seem very sturdy so a safe 8/10 for now Noise isolation: 6-7/10
