I don't have a musical ear, nor have I studied sound. I have plugged them into the motherboard and I can say that I have a pleasant result.
For their money, you can't find something better, everyone has classic headphones. Just for recording if you have relatively loud music it sounds from the outside.
Extremely good headphones for their price, with the disadvantage that the ear cushions and headband wear out quite a bit over time and need replacement/covering. They haven't had any other issues after about 4 years of use.
The sound is very good, the ear pads are easily replaceable if they break. I used to have the Koss Pro4x, they were very good but the ear pads wore out. The same goes for the Koss Porta Pro, you have to get them fixed by the authorized service, good luck finding it though, even though they are still being produced and you can easily find compatible replacement ear pads. The model has been around for years and the whole series uses the same ones.
Very good headphones for amateur use... their problem, however, is what is shown in the photo. After a while, the coating on the earbuds polymerizes and decomposition begins
The headphones are simply wonderful. The sound is flat, as it should be, they are compact and fit everywhere, the color is the best and did not fade the 2-3 times they fell. They are worth every penny, 10000000%.
Extremely good headphones. I bought them to replace my JBL LSR 305 monitors that I use for both music listening and music/guitar software when circumstances don't allow for proper volume, and I am fully satisfied. Easy adjustment and comfortable fit without causing fatigue. Highly recommended for their price!
I have been a owner for three months and a music lover. I wanted a good entry-level audiophile headphone with good build quality that would withstand the test of time, as the entry-level Sennheiser HD300 series did not last long. With that being said:
The negatives:
- The sound signature of these headphones is not for audiophiles who prefer atmospheric, warm, neutral, medium range sound that favors vocals and orchestral music. Those who are looking for that should consider open back headphones or Sennheiser 500, 600 series. I am surprised that some say it lacks bass. I consider them headphones for bassheads and EDM music.
- It has a nonexistent soundstage, and because it is an analytical headphone for mixing, you reach a point of listening that gives you a headache. If you just want to enjoy the sound, it is not for listening. Some forums recommend the M40x as a better overall headphone. Save some money.
Personally, I was extremely disappointed when I first got them. Read below what I did in case you bought them and are stuck with them.
- They do not fit well on large ears and heads. I solved this by using larger earpads.
The positives:
- Excellent imaging, capturing even the smallest sound. Useful for mixing.
- Excellent build quality. Made to withstand time, with replaceable parts in case something breaks.
- Soundstage: Thankfully, due to the replaceable parts, something can be done. Personally, I opened the headphones and removed a cotton ring from the driver. And magically, the headphones have a soundstage while maintaining their characteristic bass. The headphone goes from a 5/10 to easily an 8/10 in sound after this modification, making it an excellent all-rounder.
Let's take it in turns!!
These are my first OverEar headphones!!
I got them because I'm a cool guy and I wanted a design on my headphones!! I'm not just some random person!!
Also, I will be involved in voice recording so I wanted studio headphones!!!
Lightweight... They don't tire the ear... You can wear them all day due to comfort and weight!!!
The cushions come off and on very easily!!!
(Not important but someone might be interested)
The SOUND... HMMM I was expecting something louder!!! I played enough music but... I had a complaint!!!
Guys, sound, image, and taste are a matter of preference!!!
Everyone will hear differently...
I will update as soon as I wear them for more hours!!!
If you have generally searched for studio monitor headphones around 100 euros, there are 2 options. For me, they are excellent and I don't think they need an upgrade for a long time!
The evaluation is for the black-colored headphones. I bought them in 2017. Amazing sound, especially detailed in the treble, very powerful bass. You discover new details in familiar music. What bothered me a lot is the quality of the cover and the three cushions, in the second year, with little use, the synthetic leather literally disintegrated and peeled off, I had to buy replacements, in white color from the company's website. I only found two for the ears, there is no headband replacement even from the dealership. They are a bit tight after prolonged use, you sweat where they touch around the ears.
Update 3-11-2022: And the white cushions, same poor quality, peeled off even faster than the black ones... :(
Update 2: I bought cushions from another company's website from abroad, they have a different material, let's see their durability...
After years and now having other headphones to do my job, I decided to leave a review for one of the most well-known headphones.
The build quality is mediocre, especially the plastic parts, which are inferior compared to Beyer, Senn, Focal, Bose, and Sony headphones that I own. There are several creaks over time, and the earpads are of poor quality. In my opinion, they should be replaced immediately with Dekoni or Yaxi pads. In addition to the quality issue, there is also the durability problem. The awful leather they have breaks within a short period of time.
In terms of sound:
A) For studio use, these headphones are not suitable, and this is clearly evident from the frequency response (FR) that you will see. There are spikes all over, muffled mids, overly bright highs, and excessive mid-high bass for monitoring. If you want monitoring headphones, then go for the Audio-Technica R70X, which are flat and have the necessary 5K spike to identify the flaws you want, or the DT 770 Pro, DT 880 Pro 600ohm, which are cheaper and definitely more suitable for monitoring. The Focal Listen Pro headphones also surpass these.
B) For home music listening, you want something comfortable, with good vocal reproduction, and not a large soundstage. Velour earpads are recommended. Unfortunately, even in this aspect, the M50X headphones do not perform well. The mids and vocals are nowhere to be found. I would recommend the AKG K371 and HD 569, which are warm and without exaggerations. If you want to step up your game, then go for the Meze 99 Classic for closed-back or the HD 600, 650, 660s for open-back.
C) Let's move on to gaming. Here, you need two things: soundstage and imaging. It is well-known that the M50X headphones are not good in either of these aspects. If you want a large soundstage from closed-back headphones, then the DT770 Pro 80ohm is the way to go (although I would never recommend closed-back headphones for gaming because they lack the soundstage and imaging of open-back headphones). If you want open-back headphones, then go for the HD 599, Audio-Technica ATH-AD500X, or the AKG 612, 701, 702.
Finally, I must say that not everything is negative. Obviously, for them to sell for so many years and be liked by many, it means they are doing something right. In my opinion, what they do well is:
- DJ use, as this V-shaped frequency response (FR) is the best for DJs to mix in a noisy environment. In such cases, you need strong bass and piercing highs. It is no coincidence that all DJ headphones have such an FR, for example, the HD 25. They also have good sound isolation, thanks to the leather pads, and they are very portable since you can fold them and put them in your bag. Additionally, the drivers are very durable, as I have not heard of anyone with a broken driver.
And finally, the most important thing is that they have a sound profile that is full of excitement when someone who has no experience with headphones listens to them for the first time. They definitely impress, just like they did with me when I first heard them. However, in practice, someone who is not a casual listener will always feel that something is missing, that something is not right.
PS. For DJs, these headphones are easily 4 out of 5 stars. However, for all other uses, they do not perform well.
Before I start the evaluation, you need to know that these headphones are closed-back, over-ear, and their main use is for studio purposes, but they also work well as all-around headphones.
The headphones are flat, meaning that the sound you hear does not have any effects (bass boost, high boost, studio mode, hall mode, etc.). The low frequencies, specifically from 20-80hz, sound a bit harsh. The mid frequencies are quite good, and the high frequencies are also fine. As for the sound image and sound stage, I would recommend them more for vocalists because they have a center-focused character. The headphones, as the company states, are for studio, mixing, DJ monitoring, and everyday use. Personally, I would consider them headphones that, with different earpads, are suitable for DJ monitoring, recordings, and mixing, although I would highly recommend them for mixing/mastering. Pay attention to the bass as it can sound a bit harsh.
Regarding their construction, I want to say that they are very high-quality and you feel like you're holding expensive, good headphones. Nice fabric, they have a metal construction where they embrace the head, and they are flexible. The only downside in their construction, I would say, is that they have a very large frame, which can be a small issue for small heads. Another downside they have is the earpads, which are very thin and do not allow the sound to escape before reaching your ear, but you can replace them with others if you search.
They come with three cables. One 3-meter spiral cable, one straight 3-meter cable, and one 1.2-meter cable. The cables are detachable from the headphones, and they are of very high quality.
As for gaming, if you mind that they don't have a microphone, you can get an extension with a microphone. Because they have satisfactory sound stage and image, you can perceive depth and direction correctly. In explosions, their bass is harsh, and their highs have a bit of a violent sound, but overall they are very good. Their dynamic range is quite good.
Final conclusions. The headphones are quite good for sound analysis, DJing, mixing, and they are ideal for vocalists. All the negative points I mentioned about the bass are minor details that you won't notice if you're not involved with sound, and they will seem very good headphones for their price, although the BeyerDynamic DT770 pro headphones are much better and have the same price.
A fair opinion: they are very good in terms of price/quality ratio.
In my opinion:
Soundstage: 8/10
Image: 8/10
Frequency response: 9/10
Dynamic range: 8/10
More specific characteristics:
Impedance - 38 ohms (low impedance category)
Maximum Power - 1600mW - 1kHz
Category - Dynamic
Driver Diameter - 45 mm
Magnet - Neodymium
Voice Coil - CCAW (Copper-clad aluminium wire)
4/5 stars because the negatives I found are the earpads, which are very thin and not comfortable after many hours of use. Also, personally, I would prefer the detachable cables to be 3.5mm and 3.5mm jacks instead of 1.2mm and 3.5mm.
I am addressing those who are buying headphones for the first time.
You will see many reviews for these headphones, both good and mediocre.
One thing I understood is that...
If you are someone who has experience with good headphones and has tried other headphones of similar price or higher, you will say that they didn't live up to the hype because there are other headphones with better sound at a slightly higher price. If you are new to audio and headphones, you will find these headphones wonderful as you haven't tried others and as a point of comparison, you have earbuds that cost 10 to 20 euros.. My point is: If you sit and read detailed reviews about headphones, you won't get anywhere or if you do, you will end up with very expensive headphones. While these headphones are at a very good price and with very good sound.
As first headphones at this price, they are very good.
Pros: very good sound (most important),
comfortable,
come with 3 cables and a 1/8 to 1/4 jack adapter,
detachable cable as you already know
Cons: they warm up the ear very slightly, of course I am indoors with central heating so it might be better in a colder environment.
and at first, you might find the sensation on the top of the head a bit strange but you get used to it.
Meaning the first time I put them on, not having worn over-ear headphones for years, I found the pressure on the top a bit strange.
Don't worry, there is space for the ear.. I say this because someone said they could also be on-ear headphones.
Amazing headphones. They are worth their money. I don't find any difference in sound compared to other more expensive ones.
Guys, be very careful when buying a good sound card. If the computer's voice is not loud enough up to 25% for the past two years, I thought it was the worst purchase I've made. However, yesterday, trying a Sound Blaster sound card for 30 euros, the sound skyrocketed. Mobiles don't work well due to a bad sound card. That's it, guys
I have had them for four years and I use them through an external DAC and internally.
The positives:
- Quite good midrange
- Comfortable (I have a large head)
- Lightweight
- 3 different cables
- Ear pads can be changed
The negatives:
- Poor bass (light and hard together)
- Quite strong highs
- Very poor quality ear pads and headband fabric/material
For 150€, they are not worth it. If they were priced below 90€, then yes, they would be worth it. The hype around them was created because big-name YouTubers made them trendy.
The M40x headphones are better! There are better options available for the same price
After 2 years of use, they are by far the best headphones I have ever used! Also, the leather on the cushions has just started to wear off and I use them for several hours every day.
I have them for 7 years. From the sound, the best I have heard on headphones, even strangers on the street have commented that I have the m50x.
The material they use for the cushions and headband will start peeling after one or two years (probably because I left them in the sun), so I bought leather cushions.
For the headband, I went to a tailor who sewed an elastic material onto the headband, turned it inside out so that the seams are not visible at all, and the edges went under some caps that the headband has on the right and left. It looks even nicer than the factory one now. (They peel off without any issue and close perfectly again because the material was thin enough and fit well.)
Super cool, I could wear them permanently on my head. It's a bit heavy but it sits wonderfully on the head and the sounds it produces are simply delightful.
The best value for money headphones!
Pros
-----
* It comes with three cables (one for short distance, one slightly longer, and one coiled).
* Incredible sound quality. If you have a good sound card, the listening experience goes to another level. You put the music on and you have "traveled".
* Incredible build quality. It folds in any way you can imagine. Very flexible and lightweight.
* Very comfortable even after extended use.
* Premium feel (leather pouch provided and the cables have nice coating).
Cons
-----
* Due to its flexibility, I have found myself trying to fold it in a way that the construction does not allow. If you encounter resistance when trying to fold the headphones, do not apply force.
We still have to see its durability over time! :)
Well, now the headphones have been in my possession for 3 years, I mainly use them with Spotify on my mobile, tablet, laptop, and desktop computer with Sound Blaster Z:
They produce amazing sound, specifically good bass and very good highs, they have a slight loss in the midrange but for their price (back then) when I bought them for 160€, I have absolutely no complaints.
They don't tire out with prolonged use.
In terms of durability, they have nothing to fear, I have mishandled them quite a bit in terms of drops and stretching and they haven't suffered at all. The only complaint I have is that after 2.5 years, the "leather" ear cushions of the headphones started to fray, resulting in the frayed pieces sticking around the ears. Now only the fabric remains without the leather... something that will probably make them sweat after an hour of listening, especially on hot days.
Ease of transportation and storage during trips.
At the current price of 117€, they are a very good proposition for mid-range headphones. Perhaps with a little more attention, the problem with the cushions could have been avoided.
AMAZ-ING!!!!
Absolutely satisfied with the quality. Volume?? Endless..
I drive them with an external USB sound card but also without a card, on a phone, tablet, etc. the volume is more than satisfactory. Personally, I don't find them uncomfortable at all after prolonged use
After so many positive reviews that I read and being disappointed by the Razer Kraken and Corsair Void Pro, wanting something more, I also bought them. From the packaging itself, you can tell that it is something premium and professional. The package includes 3 connection cables and the headphones. As for the headphones, they don't tire me even after wearing them continuously for 3 hours, and they have good noise isolation. Also, something good that I noticed is that you don't sweat easily even with prolonged use. I plugged them into the motherboard and thought, okay, the sound is just nice, on an MSI Z370 Pro Carbon. As soon as I plugged them into a sound card, they skyrocketed, completely different, now you can hear sounds that you couldn't hear before. I really hear songs that I've been listening to for years and suddenly discover that there are other sounds that I didn't hear. Of course, you also need good song quality, for example from Spotify. It was combined with a Soundblaster Z sound card. Take them with closed eyes, even if you use them on a laptop alone, the sound quality and comfort are unmatched. I constantly carry them with me and use them on my phone and Mac. Buy them without fear.
Amazing sound, powerful deep bass. Very good build quality. Literally isolate the sound. The only downside is that after a while they become tiring and annoying!!
Very advertised and rightfully so. Powerful full sound at all levels. Ideal for movies. The only drawback is that the connections loosen over time. And the plastic they use - imitation leather - wears out relatively quickly. I don't think they are suitable for DJs
Amazing sound. I've had them for 5 months with the only problem being that the cushions have torn on the bottom part. If you want to get them, make sure you have a powerful device to drive them
Very good sound quality. Balanced sound and satisfactory bass for monitoring headphones. Although they have low impedance, you won't enjoy them with a mobile device. You definitely need a more powerful source to fully appreciate their performance. Great value for money.
Honestly, I didn't expect it when I heard it at a friend's house, and of course, I made the purchase without thinking immediately the next day. It is the best quality I have heard so far for this price, mainly because of the plastic but durable casing. However, the issue is that the highly advanced drivers they use for the sound easily compete with headphones that cost 300-500 euros, which I happened to have heard, and in many cases, they surpass them. Very good clean bass that doesn't tire and clear highs, mids, and lows. It is definitely worth the purchase instead of getting something cheap or more expensive and wasting your money. Tested on a DJ console, Samsung SG5neo smartphone, and a PC with the sound card Sound BlasterX AE-5. Truly an impeccable choice that you won't regret.
Their sound is simply the best for the money.
I have only heard better and fuller sound in headphones over EUR300.
They are highly recommended for anyone who wants headphones with incredibly high-quality sound at this price.
Two "drawbacks" I could say are their "beauty" compared to SONY, Beats, etc., and that they are wired.
WARNING: They require good driving to perform. You will cry if you use them with a cheap phone/tablet.
