    Do you know what can be done if the hinges start to creak or crackle? I've had the white one for about a year and they work great but the swivel hinges have started to creak when I move my head around.

      I used to own a pair of P5's and didn't love them. I tried out a pair of P7s but found the earpads don't seem to play nice with my glasses, so a bit hesitant about that.

    @rarch1968 10 років тому

    Great review mate. I'm putting together a modest home recording setup & these are the monitoring headphones I've ordered. Looks like I could've done worse for the money. In terms of the flatness/biases in the frequency response, I guess it's a case of learning the quirks of your gear & working around the limitations. Otherwise we'd end up spending way too much $ & time in pursuit of "perfection". It's just good to have access to such decent quality hardware when you're starting out & on a tight budget.

  • @raymonddemontagne3981
    @raymonddemontagne3981 9 років тому

    Thank you for your review, got my pair recently ! Just FYI for those want are thinking about purchasing : NOT really good for outdoor, put-on-and-go daily use ( a bit too big and chunky, and the design is a bit troublesome for those not used to angle-adjustable earcups ). And the whole thing just has this pastic-ish feel all over it...However, sounds really good.
    BUT if you are used to listening bass-heavy headphone (brands with celebrity faces all over), it will take a while for your ear to adjust coz it's though very balance, the bass is a bit (like lachlan said) aggressive, especially for the first few days, not the usual deep and muddle type ( which many may find comfortable or easy to the ears ).

  • @josephBo
    @josephBo 9 років тому

    I would absolutely love if more big tech channels reviewed Brainwavz's line of IEMs and headphones. They are an EXTREMELY underrated brand and outperform almost every brand in price\SQ ratio. For example, the brainwavz m2/m3 perform on par with headphones around 150 dollars, despite being half the price. The HM5 is one of their most highly acclaimed headphones that provide a more neutral and accurate sound than the m50s, for around 120-130 bucks.

  • @LeonYuL

  • @TheTechWizarduk

    Which headphone do you think I should get, these ones, the Sennheiser HD-25 or the V-Moda M-100? I'd be using them for mainly studio and home use but also some djing as well. Great review thanks :)

  • @miditommy
    @miditommy 9 років тому

    Got my m50x today. Didn't expect much off it butt was really surprised when i tried them for the first time. The bass is very good, the treble is a little harsh on some songs butt is perfect for most songs that i listen to. Cymbals sound great.

  • @tlr8611
    @tlr8611 10 років тому +1

    Hey Man, thanks for the vid/review. Really well done. Do I see an dac/amp below your Mac? If so which one is it and do you recommend it for use with the M50's? I hear all kinds of answers as to whether or not m50's need a dac/amp? Any input is appreciated. thanks

    • @lachlanlikesathing
      @lachlanlikesathing  10 років тому

      tlr8611 The M50X works fine with most modern sources. If you notice problems with noise or distortion from your equipment you might want to consider an amp, but I would take all the statements about how much an amp improves sound with a grain of salt.

  • @NinoGanal

  • @shaown047
    @shaown047 10 років тому

    Would you recommend this over the Senn Momentums? Is it worth paying the price gap (considering the street price of both of them) or would it be better to spend the gap on amps? Great review as always. Thanks.

  • @brucejohn614

  • @PrenzT
    @PrenzT 10 років тому

    I'm currently using Monster Inspirations, bought them last Christmas for $150. They're decent but the clamping force is just way too tight, especially for someone wearing glasses, similar to yours.
    I plan on picking these up this weekend ($190 CAD)

    Hello Lachlan! I need your recommendation please!!! Which one is better sounding for recording and mixing and also for music listening? ATH-M50X or Sennheiser HD 598 Cs? I just bought the 598 on a super promotion but I've always wanted the M50s So I don't know if I should not open the 598s and sell them as new and get myself the M50s or if I should just keep the 598s! Please Help!!

    Ive watched most of your videos on various headphones but im still struggling to decide between bose qc25's, sound true around ears, audio technica ath m50x or the m70x. Any recommendations?
    And if you had $150, what sort of earphones would you go for? Im currently in year 11 going into long study sessions. Maybe that helps narrow down the reccomendations? Thanks man

  • @adamnelson8572

    I got the Dark Green M50x from Amazon for almost a week now! But I just heard of the MSR7 which I think looks absolutely stunning. I'm thinking of returning my M50x to get the MSR7 but I like pretty much everything about the M50x except for the look. Are the sound quality, comfort and durability of the two a lot different? Whats your opinion on this?

  • @vernonwang1659
    @vernonwang1659 10 років тому

    ***** hi lachlan , i wanna ask for recommendation , im still confused whether i wanna buy ath m50x or ath m40x because their price difference is around 100usd so i was thinking that i might use the 100usd for something else , so is the sound of both headphones really different or its quite the same ? This is going to be my first headphone so i dont wanna dissapoint myself , i mainly will use the headphones just for listening to music and maybe plug in the headphones to my guitar amplifier , so can you llease help me to choose ? Btw , Great videos !

    Have you heard of the KRK KNS-8400? Would you recommend the Audio-Technica ATH-50x over the KRK for mixing music, specifically rap music?? I'm thinking about getting headphones as a gift, but I have almost no knowledge about them. I've just been looking at various reviews on different types.

  • @swima94
    @swima94 9 років тому

    Not sure whether to go for these or the Bose QuietComfort 25's... my computer tends to be pretty loud and I'm going to be flying to Singapore (from UK) to study for 9 months so I feel as if the noise cancellation would come in use but whether it justifies the jump in price is a hard one... I'm not an audiophile at all, I like all kinds of music from classical, old pop, metal, techno ect and I like to have the volume below the damage threshold.

  • @gzaf83
    @gzaf83 10 років тому

    Hey so i was wondering how the beats studio wireless stack up to these like i plan on buying either theses two headphones. and i was wondering which one would be more suitable for the type of music i listen too like most of my music taste is mainstreeam pop ,r&b and hip hop. uk like lil wayne, nicki, chris brown, michael jackson, etc. so since beats are formed for that type of music but the m50x are reallly good headphones which would be better?!?!?!?!?!?!? PLEASE HELPPP ahaha

  • @kazmisadiq
    @kazmisadiq 7 років тому

    I just got the M50x ,Is it worth pairing it with a portable dac/amp like fiio q1 for eg and would it make difference in sound quality and power from the amp/dac.I mostly listen to classical music along with the occasional top pop hits etc.Is there something better for around the same price as i can still return them my budget is between 100-130 euros for headphone

    Which one do you recommend for someone who listens to normal top 40 pop music and want a comfortable pair of headphones to use for a long time? The Audio Technica ATH-M50X or the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro's? They are both at the same price in my country. So what do you thing. Please answer back.

  • @seanlu5507
    @seanlu5507 7 років тому

    I'm quite nervous about you mentioning about the treble being a little harsh as I've already ordered them. Bought a RHA ma750i (I know it's an in ear earphones and differs from a covered headset) and I switched through all the ear tips but one song ( avicii - addicted to you) had such harsh sounds in the female vocals that is too much for me and I returned them after 3 days because I just couldn't stand them. Afraid that these will be the same.

    I want buy these headphones in the Copper and Blue Coloured ATH-M50X model and was wondering if you knew any Australian stores that still sell them?

    We need a wireless variant of these. ATH-M50W? That would be sweet!! I just bought the m50x and they sound really good. Better than my old klipsch Mode m40s that the earcups sort of disintegrated and I couldn't find replacements for the earcups. I am glad I bought these they are so much more comfortable than the klipsch which used a densely packed memory foam material which turned rock hard when it was cold and was very uncomfortable until it warmed up. I think the densely packed foam was the downfall of mode m40s because over time putting them on and taking them off put stress on the seam and eventually it just gives out and rips. I am so glad to see there are replacement parts for these out there too. Earcups, cables etc whereas I couldn't find replacement earcups for the mode m40s and was forced to abandon them for these. The only con I can think of is that athm50x fold in too many different directions and I'm afraid I am going to accidentally break them. Also the cups sometimes swivel a little bit when i have them on my head letting outside noise in but it isn't a big deal.

    My only complaint is that I wish it was a standard 3.5mm jack so that I could use any cable I want. I switched to velour earpads because it's always hot in Hawaii. I'm not sure how much it affects the sound quality because my ears aren't really trained for that but the trade off for the comfort is worth it to me.

    Hi! I want my headphones to travel a one year in Europe and to commute around town, so I need them very portable, durable and comfortable. I am not an expert in sound stuff but I really appreciate the good quality sound. I am between the M40x and the M50x. Wich one do you recommend me?
