Audio Technica - ATH-R50x

When you work on your mix in an intimate space - whether it's a treated room or your lovingly-crafted home studio - you know that the choice of headphones can make or break the clarity of your work. The Audio-Technica ATH-R50x are open headphones that give you a real soundstage, without cheating or coloration.
The idea here is not to embellish: it's to stick to the truth of your signal. And that's simply essential when you're working on vocals, reverbs or placing your elements in the stereo field.

Its 45mm transducers (inspired by those of the R70x, a real legend among pros) do the job: you feel the subs without them eating up the rest, and the midrange is clean enough for every vocal grain to stand out.
No over-processing, no phoney sweet spots. And thanks to the totally open design, the air circulates, the sound breathes - you're working in a natural sound space, close to what you'd hear in good close-up listening.
Whether you're mastering or sculpting a beat at 3am, these are the kind of headphones that make you forget you're wearing them, even over long sessions.

You get two detachable cables (1.2 m and 3 m), a 6.35 mm jack adapter and a cover, all weighing in at a featherweight 207 g. The ATH-R50x isn't just a good pair of headphones: it's a reliable tool that you'll keep in your mix for a long time.
