Weighing only 207g, they feature a fully open-back design that delivers a wide, natural soundstage with powerful bass and clear midrange. Durable and comfortable for extended use, they come with two detachable cables featuring twist-lock connectors and gold-plated plugs, making them a versatile and reliable choice for mixing, mastering, and immersive audio experiences. ## Description The Audio-Technica ATH-R50x professional open-back reference headphones are designed to provide a natural listening experience with an expansive soundstage that’s ideal for all manner of critical-listening tasks. The headphones’ drivers are modelled after those used in the original ATH-R70x, now re-engineered to deliver bass that’s surprisingly powerful for an open-back model, plus an accurate upper midrange to ensure the clarity of vocals and lead instruments without sacrificing overall balance. Key to delivering this natural, full-spectrum sound is the headphones’ pure open-back design, which doesn’t embellish the sound coming from the drivers. The ATH-R50x headphones are engineered to deliver dynamic, detailed audio, with powerful sub-bass and a realistic soundstage, directly from the drivers without any additional acoustic tuning. The fully open earcups also provide greater comfort than closed-back models – comfort enhanced by the newly designed headband and durable, lightweight construction. Perfect for mixing, mastering, or creating, the ATH-R50x provides precise, reliable reference across stereo, surround, and immersive formats, making it a versatile choice for any professional or home studio. Review: Best Performance for the Money - I’ve been using the Audio-Technica ATH‑M50x for a while now, and they’ve impressed me so much that I felt compelled to write a review. These headphones strike a really nice balance between fun and accurate. The bass is tight and punchy without being boomy, the mids are clear so vocals and instruments sound natural, and the highs have good detail without getting harsh or piercing. I can switch from music to podcasts to movies and never feel like I’m missing anything. Comfort is excellent for longer sessions. The ear pads seal well without clamping too hard, and the headband feels solid but not heavy. I can wear them for a couple of hours at a time without hot spots or fatigue. The build quality is also reassuring: lots of plastic, but it feels sturdy, and the folding design makes them easy to toss in a bag. One thing I really like is the removable cable system. Being able to swap cables (or replace one if it ever fails) is a big plus, and the included cables cover most situations—at home, on the go, or at a desk. Overall, these are easy to recommend if you want a step up from basic consumer headphones. They’re reliable, comfortable, and genuinely enjoyable to listen to, whether you’re casually listening or doing more focused work like light mixing or content creation.
