Nice sound for a $125 dollar pair of headphones. Always bought Sennheisers, but quality seems to have dropped. A year of everyday use in, and these are holding up like new. Solid pair of everyday headphones

Continues down the line of great audio gears from Audio Technica, got this nearly a month ago now. Going strong and would recommend 100%. I also use this for gaming and I have had no issues.

Excellent true sound, very comfortable fit on the ears. I've initially got them for work, but since transitioned to listen to music and watch shows on my computer.
The only drawback is the proprietary 3.5mm port, which means you are stuck with the provided cables - or have to buy them from the Audio-Technica directly in case one gets damaged.

Excellent sound quality and features for the price. True flat response. Perfect for critical listening and mixing/mastering.
Spending more on a different headset yields greatly diminishing returns as you go up in price.
Absolutely hands down the best bang for the buck put there.

I did a lot of research before buying this set. Initially, I was set on buying a Bose set, but with a little bit of digging around on Internet (Amazon, YouTube, Best Buy, B&h photo video etc), this set emerged as a clear winner for good value overall. Couldn't be happier with the purchase. It is a very well built set and sounds even better. It's so good that you will hear stuff that you would normally miss on an average headphone. Bass is lacking but I don't care as I want to listen music as the composer intended it to be, not what a headphone company thinks is better (beats etc)

Bought these back in November and they sound great, very respectable bass, and quite comfortable. I can wear them for hours without any discomfort. However, after about 5 or 6 months, they developed an intermittent short of some kind in the left channel. It comes and goes, but can usually be remedied by unplugging the phono jack at headset and reconnecting it. Very annoying and quite irritating considering their cost.

Great/pure sound, exactly what you'd expect from a studio monitor headphone. There is a bit of a learning curve on how to use an EQ and interface, but once you get that going you have so much more control on how you want the sound to be.

I bought these headphones based on all the reviews. The are really good headphones for the price. The are a neutral sounding headphone so they will find all the faults in your recording. They are only as good as the source file your are playing through them. In the end I wanted a warmer sounding headphone so I went with the Sony MDR1a's. I am much happier with them but they do cost twice as much. If you want a good budget headset I recommend these.

When a company like beats has to pay lots of celebrities for endorsements it will take away quality in order to stay competitive. Audio technica does not have that problem. They put more money into their product and rely on their quality to keep selling. The sound quality cannot be compared to similar models like the beats or some sony sets valued at about the same price. This is definitely the best in its class. I am a happy customer

These are great headphones. They fold up for easy storage and come with a few cables to fit your needs. It's a little bass heavy, but I enjoy that with my headphones. Highs are crisp and clear. The mids are not drowned out by the bass. It's a perfect balance for some very comparable headphones I can wear for hours.

I like this headset but I think it could have some more "oomph" considering the price you pay. The bass seems a bit flat but its comfortable and produces clear audio. Storage is easy since you can fold it and the different cable options that comes with it is a plus. I use the non tangled spiral one. I also love the fact that I can disconnect the cable.
All in all very good but if you are looking for heavy bass, I'd say look elsewhere.

These are excellent headphones for new and old producers who are trying to not break the bank. The sound quality is incredible and the sleek design looks and feels both comfortable and professional. Very happy with my purchase. I produce Dubstep/House music and these have really nice low end and high end which is excellent if you are looking to produce bassy EDM.
