  • Great sound, a few setup struggles (solutions below)
Color: Deep Sea Style: Wireless
I expect nothing less than stellar sound from Audio Technica and I was not disappointed. I did however run into a few unexpected issues while setting them up and I'm putting what they were and how I solved them here in case anyone else has the same issues. I got these for two purposes, one being Discord calls and gaming, the other video post production. The first issue I ran into while using Discord on my PC was hearing my own voice in my headphones. I didn't know that this was a setting as it wasn't illustrated in the quick start guide and I had to find the manual online to solve it. I was able to turn off the setting called "side tone" using the Audio Technica Connect app on my phone and that solved it. Easy but not intuitive if you've never used a headphone that has it. The second issue I had was if I joined a discord call while playing a game, my desktop audio quality was vastly decreased. It sounded like both my friend int he discord call and my game audio were coming from a tin can, absolutely awful. This took more research and a very useful reddit post. I solved this issue by opening the Device Manager on my PC (Windows 11) and finding the driver titled "LE_ATH-M50xBT2 Hands Free" and disabling it (it was in the drop-down menu for "sound, video, and game controllers"). This is an unnecessary driver that messes with your sound and while I don't understand why exactly, it solved the problem and I now have beautiful audio while gaming and chatting. ... show more

  • True non-enhanced sound, good price
Color: Deep Sea Style: Wireless
I was looking for headphones that did not change or enhance the actual sound of what I was hearing, be it live, recorded, general music listening, etc. etc. These seem to fit the bill,... very reasonable and simple to charge and use. So far I really like em 👍🏼.

  • A Fantastic First Time…
Color: Deep Sea Style: Wired
I decided to finally get myself some real monitoring headphones, so I can stop just dabbling, and, officially and properly, start my music production journey. These were within the price range I had set, and seemed to have such rave reviews, here on Amazon, and elsewhere. I went with the blue ones, ‘cause why not? My first “real headphones” arrived the next day. Let me tell you, these things were worth… every… cent. I have yet to actually mix anything with them, but oh, wow… they made the music I thought I had actually listened to before so much clearer and deeper. The clarity with them is absolutely gorgeous. You can hear every beautiful detail. My ears love them. It would be great to have the wireless ones as well, just so I can always be able to hear any music like this, even away from the screen. I will definitely be making good use of these. Thanks, Audio-Technica, for a great first time! ... show more
