Great 'Phones for Monitoring and Critical Listening!

You need headphones that deliver great sound. You want comfort. Audio-Technica gives you both — in spades! Plus, their outstanding ATH-M50S headphones won't bust your budget! Want options? You get them! The ear pieces on the ATH-M50S 'phones swivel 180 degrees, providing plenty of monitoring flexibility in the studio or the DJ booth. And, if it's isolation you're looking for, these headphones absolutely deliver; their well-padded ear cushions create an excellent seal while giving you the comfort you want — and the adjustable padded headband adds to the comfort factor. You won't believe what a great value you get in these amazing headphones!



Portability is a great thing to have in such an accurate, pro-quality set of 'phones. That's why the ATH-M50S headphones feature a collapsible design; you to take them just about anywhere! Audio-Technica also included an attached straight cable that terminates to a gold-plated mini-plug (it allows these headphones to sound as great plugged into your music player as they do in the studio). A screw-on 1/4" adapter is also included.

Audio-Technica ATH-M50S Headphones Features at a Glance:
  • Exceptional audio quality for professional monitoring and mixing
  • Collapsible design ideal for easy portability and convenient storage
  • Proprietary 45mm large-aperture drivers with neodymium magnet systems
  • Closed-back cushioned earcup design creates an outstanding seal for maximum isolation
  • Adjustable padded headband for comfort during long mixing/recording sessions
  • Single-sided straight cable terminates to gold-plated mini plug with screw-on 1/4" adapter

Make Audio-Technica ATH-M50S headphones your go-to 'phones — in the studio and beyond!

After they burn in (few days of music/pink noise) the clarity really comes through. Unlike the Senn 280 it has a nice low end presence. Best in class for the money.
