Audio-Technica ATH-M50x BK: Studio Monitor Headphones for Tracking and Mixing

The Audio-Technica ATH-M50x BK is a closed-back professional monitor headphone featuring proprietary 45 mm large-aperture drivers with copper-clad aluminum wire voice coils. The same coveted sonic signature of the original ATH-M50 is present here, now with the practicality of three interchangeable detachable cables. Circumaural over-ear contours ensure excellent passive sound isolation, making this model a top pick for studio tracking, mixing, DJ monitoring, and private listening.

Three interchangeable cables—1.2 m straight, 3 m straight, and 1.2–3 m coiled—arrive in the box, along with a 6.3 mm screw-on adapter and a protective pouch.
