Austrian Audio Hi-X65 5-stars Reviews

Ease of use and comfortable for long usage

Since I was dealing with very noisy room, I need a good headphone to do my mixing and this one proven to be a perfect choice.

Absolut Top!

Habe viel Erfahrung, gute Ohren und schon einige Kopfhörer gehabt, aber die Austrians sind der mit Abstand beste Kauf bisher. Sound ist absolut Spitze, mit genau dem richtigen Bass für Urban und Dance Music. Trotzdem tragen sie sich perfekt, auch über Stunden und sind angenehm halboffen. Klare Empfehlung!

If you want to hear the truth, get a pair!

Extreme clarity, I use it all the time to make scores and tabs, since I can literally hear everything with enough space to catch all the small details. The high is a little accentuated and the bass is pretty neutral, which also is great if you want mix your music with it. the extra highs overcompensate nicely to avoid mixing problems

Great studio headphones for the money

The Austrian Audio Hi-X65 headphones have just become one of my favourite headphones for studio use and also leisure listening.

The build quality is very good and solid. I would not expect more or less for the price. Since I have a pretty big head size, I find the headband has a pretty strong clamp force but not so much that it becomes uncomfortable. The clamp force is similar to HD600/650. I do feel the pressure from the headband after a long listening session.

The headphones sound pretty neutral and balanced to my ears. I used own a pair of DT1990 pro which I find the upper treble can be a little too forward sometimes. I do not find the forwardness issue in Hi-X65. Bass is accurate but don't expect the quantity you'd usually find in audiophile headphones. Soundstage is decent in width and has good depth. There is very good imaging accuracy.

I highly recommend this pair of headphones. They do not require a lot of power to drive them. I can even listen off my phone with them, unlike some of other studio headphones in the price range e.g. HD600, DT1990. These are exceptional value headphones for both studio use and general listening use.

Very good sound however too small

The sound is very good which is very balanced and detailed. However I must return it because the size inside the ear-cup is to small that it touch the side of my ear. Also the clamping force is a bit too much for me

These are as good as it gets

Just got these yesterday and straight away l was able to pinpoint problems with my mix on two tracks that l couldn't hear on my monitors or my other headphones... definitely no regrets and the comfort and build quality is top notch

Top Notch

These headphones have had mixed reviews but for me, as a pro composer, I need cans I can rely on and cover the frequency spectrum beautifully. I have Dynaudio 5A speakers but I find I use these cans for mastering and mixing now. I wear them for hours upon end and my only regret is that I didn't have them years ago. I can also take screw off the tip and plug it into my MBP. Totally pro gear.
