The Audio-Technica M50x is an amazing headphone for the price. I'd highly recommend it to anyone.
I use somewhat more expensive headphones now (the B&W P7 Wireless) but I mainly upgraded because I wanted the optional Bluetooth support. The B&Ws cost more than twice as much, and they do sound better than the Audio-Technicas to my ear, but the difference isn't huge. For me, like you, upgrading from cheap headphones to the Audio-Technicas was a revelation, and I suspect another quantum leap in quality like that simply isn't possible.
- snvzz 9y ago"was" would be more accurate. The price has gone up significantly due to its popularity, and there are far better options at the pricing range where it sits now. They're also significantly colored headphones; The cheaper m40x are actually more neutral.
- eddieh 9y agoThe M40fs headphones are great. The M40x headphones that replaced them are terrible. I love the M40fs headphones so much I bought 10 from eBay when I learned they'd been discontinued. Should be a lifetime supply, I hope.
