  • Abstract:  Now that the 3.5mm headphone jack is being relegated to technology's history books, wireless headphones are where it's at. And there is a lot of competition for our ears so it takes some thing pretty special to win over our eardrums - particularly when yo...

  • The Audio Technica ATH-M50xBT offers great sound quality both with and without wires. They have an open sound with enough bass to satisfy most users. The Bluetooth controls are well integrated and the inclusion of a separate cable with an integrated mic i
  • Unlike many headphones at this price, there's no noise cancelling. The sound can be a little too forward in noisy environments, resulting in less natural sound. The power button is in an awkward spot

  • With the premium aesthetics, durable build, long-term battery life, and excellent sound quality, we believe that the ATH-M50xBT from Audio-Technica is one of the best headsets in the market. It features all the strong qualities of a high-performance heads...

  • This is an entirely successful conversion of audio-technica's strong monitoring headphone into a strong consumer Bluetooth headphone. It looks cool, it looks strong; its wireless sound is magnificent, and the price is very attractive.audio-technica ATH-M5...

  • Added swappable twist-lock cable completes M50, M40x trappings make for great value, Consistently good sound
  • Midrange of M30x can be a bit harsh
  • Audio-Technica has built a great range of headphones with the Mx series. The big brother M50x just became an even better all-rounder headphone, and the M40x isn't too far behind. On the lookout for cheap tracking headphones? Don't go past the M20x...

  • Open, detailed sound, Studio-quality neutral sonic signature, Top-notch battery life, Wired listening sounds good, Comfortable and well-built
  • Micro-USB port for charging, Awkwardly positioned controls,
  • The Audio Technica ATH-M50xBT is a modern approach to a classic product, and an excellent one given the shift in consumer preference towards wireless listening. While audiophiles and traditionalists will always swear by wired headphones, the ATH-M50xBT of...
