Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT Review - Great On The Go Headphones For Creators

[@airholderairholder]

The more I am hearing about these the more I like them...However, I just cannot wait for the ATH-SR50BT, which I believe they re gonna rock just like these plus they will be noise cancelling!!!

[@StephenHaunts]

I just ordered a pair of these headphones. I use the wired version at work and love them. In the video you state you can only pair to one device at once, which had me worried, but I have looked in the user guide online for the headphones and it states you can pair to 8 devices.

Why someone already disliked the video?? Its uploaded 5 mins ago and its 11 min long.!!!!!!

[@OnlineObsessionista]

Thanks for the mic test!

[@jonlocke1624]

Wish he would've done an inline mic test. But otherwise a great review.

[@bloo_110]

Most normal consumers never liked the m50xs because their sound signature is much flatter than mainstream headphones and speakers. They’ve always been loved by creators who need more accurate sound, even though audiophiles still claim the headphones have too much bass.

[@uwaisqurny2416]

Actually you get bored if all the headphone give you too much v shape signature..

[@ejohn87]

This is exactly the comparison I was looking for. Thank you! I think I may go for the Sonys, as I prefer a "fun" sound signature when listening to my tunes on the go. Also, the original V-Moda Crossfade Wireless are on sale for less than $120 on Amazon, and they're also pretty exciting to listen to, if not as refined as the new generation. Worth a look.

[@Lance.planes.and.more1]

Sound on the Sony is really good but had to return them. The get so hot after a few minutes. Ear cups are large but not really deep

[@n2t460]

Thank you so much for covering the mic review

[@the96nix]

What phone is he using? Thank you for making this video. I liked how you compared it to the Sony wh-1000xm3.

[@Aryan-tz7zk]

U deserve more subs man

[@escogido7755]

I love this headphones.. I just want to know if the Audio-Technica Ath-m50xbt sound signature using the cable is the same that the sound of the olders m50x?

[@shamhosein770]

Yes it is

[@Dailyblazer19]

I've heard it's a little closer to the m40x in sound as they trimmed the base back by a few decibels, and the response curve dips around the high mids. The headphones to me sound nice. I did have problems with the comfort, but I just bought some Wicked Cups on Amazon and the extra foam padding provides a lot of room for my bigger ears. Also as a bonus the extra space the cups provide pushes the drivers further away from my ears, reducing the metallic shrill of the highs the headphone had. Now the bass response is still there because the pleather material is dense, but the extra distance and the foam pad that covers the driver wall is thick enough to muffle some of the distorted highs rounding out the sound signature to be more balanced in my opinion. If you're looking for something with better treble detail either get an open back pair like the SHP9500s or HD58X. The lack of Bluetooth is made up for by the sound stage and attention to the highs. Otherwise this is a good versatile headset to pick up.

[@annasalhayek515]

@@Dailyblazer19 how are the m50xbt i am interested in getting these and am putting them up against pxc 550ii and momentum 3

[@Dailyblazer19]

@@annasalhayek515 let me say this I wouldn't compare them to the PXC just because the response curve is a little sharper and it's meant to pop more with the bass and treble. I actually had to return mine because it developed harsh static in the left cup. If you're using these headphones for casual music listening like R&b or electronic they're fine. I wouldn't use them for gaming though they had almost no soundstage.

[@AaronKamel]

Ahm, if I could add my 2 cents, on some video you do talk about taking the headphones to the gym, it'd be awesome to test thjis in gym I live hitting the weights, but algo good music (v-shaped for myself) .... just a thought :D

[@johnnova4846]

Hey gym, great review!!!! What would you recommend the ATH-M50xBT over the Sennheisser 4.50BTNC or the Sony WH-700N??

[@GYMCADDY]

ATH-SR50BT

[@geekindakitchen]

i can't weigh in on the WH-700N as I don't have them in my arsenal of headphones or the ATH-SR50BT, but will be looking to invest in both pairs in the coming future in all honesty. M50X - I don't own the BTs as here in Australia it's $150.00 upgrade to go wireless, as our M50X are normally on sale for around the $195 - $199 mark, where the BTs are $349.00 and yet to go on sale cheaper than $347.00, I like my M50x for working in Maschine Audio or producing and studio monitor but I am not a bass head the response graph is flat, the sound signature is flat that's how they are meant to sound I don't think I could use these for a daily driver outside of the studio, but I have been caught out when the Jaybird Tarah's die and I have been stuck without audio I used these on my phone but I feel with the wired the version my phone amp doesn't have enough juice to power these headphones to be frank with you (Huawei Nova 3e) but I could be wrong, the volume just doesn't seem to be as loud as say the 4.50bt OR the XB650BT, but i have found some of my daily songs to sound a bit harsh on them which is why I use the EARASERS earplugs even on the go and in the studio they cut down 19DB of sound and work really. BT4.50 - I feel with the noise cancelling turned on you actually lose a lot of bass and the sound signature and profile on these sound different to the 4.40s which I also own. I found the noise cancelling to be good but I actually didn't use the NC all that much to be honest. I would recommend the 4.50s or the 4.40s over the M50Xs

[@geekindakitchen]

@@GYMCADDY I find it odd that you dropped a model number, but not a reasoning behind the model number.

[@TheKingAskdoof]

ATH-M50XBT vs WH-1000XM3, which one? (In therms of overall quality)

[@travisp1313]

I like the m50xbt better.. The xm3 has a horrible bass bloat and no treble. (I know you weren't asking me but oh well).

[@fortyinch]

lol... 🤣🤣🤣🤣 them names though.....! hahaha imo. the sony. cause of the NC. newer tech too.

[@AM-ms9mn]

Have both...m50xbt sounds better than xm3 but has not anc or tech like ambient mode or a host of other things. Pure sound quality with Bluetooth 5.0 to boot. In fact m50xBt kill every wireless overears ANC or not Bose, Sony, B&A....m50xbt’s sound quality kills all these

[@davewithey3892]

Would you recommend these over the Sony wh900xb for sound quality for dance/trance type music ANC not really required thanks

[@TheUltimateSlayer]

Meh. Ive heard from a lot of people that these get really uncomfortable to wear after an hour. That's a deal breaker for me. I like headsets that i can wear for hours with zero discomfort.

[@jackjones4152]

Black The Supreme God I’ve never had an issue with these or the m40x in regards to comfort. They actually provide a very soft and plush fit. The clamping force also isn’t “skull crushing” as some say for some reason.

[@johngotti8544]

Do these headphones have a lot of volume do they get loud 🤷‍♂️

[@geekindakitchen]

Yes, the coiled cable or 3 metre straight would be GREAT for these, I am disappointed that the old M50x cables don't work with these M50xBT it sucks. I was disappointed with the 700N's to be honest I brought the M50xBT and the 700s I still have the M50xBT don't have the 700's

[@yuvar7599]

does the sound quality turned bad/changed if listening through the cable ?

[@Dailyblazer19]

Actually I think it's better? It's very subtle, but the bluetooth has more hiss with it's digital processing. When wired the headset sounds just as good, but I'd say you're missing out on the extra convenience you paid for by not using bluetooth when you can.

[@nano8453]

They are uncomfortable after 20-30 mins using them. If you have big ears like me, you woul not feel comfortable. Great sound although do not expect a lot of bass.

[@geekindakitchen]

I agree my friend finds these uncomfortable but did switch out for third party memory form pads and had no issues. Bass is not what these are designed for being monitoring so if your a bass head you've looked at the wrong headphones.

[@AngelM55]

I had the wired version and they sounded fantastic but lacked bass. There was zero base what so ever

[@TheUltimateSlayer]

That's a deal breaker for me. Headphones that have zero bass are just boring to listen to.

[@bloo_110]

I think they’re just a balanced sound signature compared to most mainstream headphones. Audiophiles complain about them having too much bass. They’re almost flat in sound signature but sounds like it “lacks” base because all headphones and speakers are bass boosted

[@geekindakitchen]

@@bloo_110 Agreed they are balanced which is definitely what us producers and non main stream professionals of the M50x want and that's a fact these have been my daily driver in the studio for months now and i love them for that reason. Many headphones, like the XB650BT, Beats Studio, Beats Solo, Sol Republic Track HD2 are all bass boosted and these are aimed at your main stream guy, don't get me wrong I actually have the XB650BT as my daily driver out side of the STUDIO.

[@shastaweston]

The M50x's suck.... I had them many months ago and they not only sounded harsh but lacked bass and just felt cheap... Also they are very uncomfortable.

[@ncsmusicandremixes3302]

You can use an eq to increase Bass.

@@ncsmusicandremixes3302 eeerh try... But once again comfort suffers....

@@shastaweston Never had any issues with the comfort of the M50X to be honest, but the are harsh depending on what you listen to. m50x these are monitor headphones not every day headphones in my mind.

@@shastaweston I understand yes for those purposes these aren't ideal, but these are good for some purposes, this is why I have multiple pairs of headphones my girlfriend doesn't understand that but you can't find one good all round headphone in my mind but I glad you found that suits your needs.
