ATH-R70 X : A Pretty Fantastic Experience
Been looking for more sound accurate headphones to get a better view of my mixes, and this one definitely is it.
On it's own does a pretty great job of keeping the EQ curve as flat as possible (even better paired with something like Sonarworks).
The bass response is the first thing is jumped out right at me, after using another pair of headphones for years, using this one was an eye opener, the lower frequencies are so much clearer and I was even able to hear lower ones than ever before.
The lack of need to adjust it thanks to the wind system makes it just great to wear with no hassle, also makes passing it to other people with differently shaped faces completely seem less, and it feels like there's nothing on top of your head either.
Nothing to say about the build quality, pretty impeccable to say the least, it's sturdy, made it fall a couple of times by mistake and there isn't even a single dent in it, the cable being detachable and replaceable is also great for long term use.
My only complaint would be a slight discomfort sometime if the ear pads aren't lined properly due to my big ears and glasses, it's just a matter of putting the cushions in the right place tho, so not a big complaint in any shape or form.
In conclusion, it's a great way to mix on headphone when you don't have an alternative to headphones, it's light, doesn't need adjustments, sounds great when listening to pretty much everything, really not much to say about it beside that.
