ATH-M50XWH : Sound is good, bright for some, but good, with poor build quality and worse comfort

3 years ago

My head gets sore not 20 minutes after putting these on. It's a damn shame because they isolate well, and are especially suited for tracking, where the V shape comes in handy for hearing everything.

They started squeaking not long after I got them, though only when folding them out, so I don't believe it would be a problem when recording, but beware still.

I would recommend something else to anyone not wanting to take the risk. Don't be fooled ny marketing of these headphones. Great alternatives are out there BUT; if you do know that you won't find them uncomfortable, then they're a great purchase.
