Comfortable Audiophile 'Phones with Maple Flair

Tonewoods are typically reserved for guitars, ukuleles, and other instruments. With the introduction of ATH-WP900 headphones, Audio-Technica has proved just how potent a difference these materials can make when utilized for on-ear audio equipment. Sweetwater audio experts weren't surprised to find a powerful driver build and experienced housing design. However, the ATH-WP900's unique addition of a flamed maple housing unearths unparalleled sonic authenticity that has our most discerning audiophiles begging for more. The best part? ATH-WP900 headphones aren't just designed for at-home use; the included carrying case, swivel-flat design, and A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) connector cables make it a viable travel and transport option.

Encased in supreme Japanese craftsmanship

Each pair of wooden ATH-WP900 headphones is hand-assembled in Audio-Technica's home city of Tokyo, Japan — ensuring optimal on-arrival performance and good looks. Two beefy 53mm drivers containing enhanced magnetic circuitry and a DLC (diamond-like carbon) diaphragm coating are carefully combined with a top-mounted PCB construction and angled baffle, improving airflow for better low-end to midrange definition. It's all topped off with machined maple housings bearing an exquisite Fujigen flame maple finish — amounting to uniquely natural sound and a garnished exterior appearance.

Audio-Technica ATH-WP900 Over-ear Headphones Features:

  • Portable, stylish over-ear headphones for detailed on-the-go audio
  • 53mm full-range drivers with enhanced magnetic circuitry provide a clean, balanced, and authentic soundstage for high-fidelity playback
  • DLC diaphragm coating supplements sound with high detail in the upper frequencies
  • Top-mounted PCB and angled baffle keep airflow in check for optimized diaphragm movement
  • Beautiful Fujigen flame maple housing finish
  • Synthetic leather earpads and headband offer a lifetime of comfort in the studio or on the go
  • 2 detachable A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) connector cables with 3.5mm and 4.4mm 5-pole gold-plated balanced plugs
  • Included carrying pouch for accessible travel and transport

Break-in

These are the most deceiving headphones I've ever put on. let me start from the beginning I had a pair of audio technical ATHM70x, in my opinion, the best sounding headphones you can get for under $ the only problem they have an Achilles heel in between where the yolk and the headbands, there is a brittle piece of plastic that will break in time my first fixed with a piece of tape, but then the second brake on the other side, my birthday was coming up and my wife ordered a pair of the new Sony headphones , which by the way are incredible they are the lightest headphones on the market and sound incredible. The only problem is for me. They're open back and I needed clothes back for playing next to a microphone, etc. so Sweetwater very kind took them back and I exchanged them for the new, Harry chested 53 mm ATH -WP900. first impression they are beautiful I put them on and they had to be one of the most uncomfortable pair headphones like wearing two car door stereo speakers on my head sound was definitely improvement. Big bottom, beautiful mid range and Upper frequencies highly detailed it was just that they weren't comfortable.
Each day they seemed to sound a little bit better and it was feeling a little bit better on my head. I really was getting ready to send them back. Well, I'm keeping them I really believe just like a lot of equipment. It needed to breathe and to break in this is just my opinion, so I'm giving them five stars but when they first come out of the box, they feel like a two star for comfort and sound four star…
After two weeks, I'm giving him five stars for me. They needed to be broken in.
