Needs Amplification
Headphones and IEMs require a certain level of power to sound their best and work at their full potential. When your headphones or IEMs are underpowered, they can sound thin or muffled.
Amplifiers are required to provide adequate power to your headphone or IEMs to perform at their best. Simply put, amplifiers allow a weak audio signal to be boosted to a powerful one.
To put it into perspective, devices such as your phones and laptops come with an amplifier, but they offer very limited output power. This output may not be sufficient to power headphones and IEMs to shine at their best. This is where a dedicated amplifier is required to deliver adequate power to hear your music in all its glory.

Drivers
Closed-Back Design
Headphones with a Closed-Back design are completely sealed around the ear cup, allowing the sound to travel directly into your ears. This means that closed-back headphones block out outside noise, giving much better isolation, and minimising sound leakage to those around you.

A pair of headphones with a replaceable cable has many benefits, and one of them is if the connecting cable has a problem, it doesn’t mean that you have to buy a new one. If the connecting cable gets pulled or damaged, you can replace it and keep using your good-old headphones or IEMs. This way, your headphones will be protected and will last longer. With the advancements in cable manufacturing, you now get a variety of replacement cables with various termination options, lengths and quality.

Earlier in my teens, I used to listen to MP3 songs.
Later came to know lossless audio,
My musician friend suggests Audio Technica ATH-M50X - fell in love to intrinsic details .
Low - mid range crisp clear
Bass as unadulterated.
I purchased at 9500 @ 2017, now it's 11k
Even worth under 12k category.
The only drop back is sweating on long listening sessions under humid climate.
Advantage it's foldable with leather carry case.
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x.
What a crisp and theatrical sound quality! You can feel each and every instrument played live in a theatre. Thanks a lot Headphone zone for suggesting me this magic.
Hi there! Thank you for your kind words about the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x. We're so glad to hear that you're enjoying the crisp and theatrical sound quality. Happy listening!
Wow... Wow... Just wow... I never felt music and sound like this before... It's a a beauty. It's really good but heavy and can't listen without break after 20-30 mintues max. Using it with DAC are more helpful with type c or lighting based device. But even if you use it with 15K mobile phone without DAC it won't disappoint you. I myself used it with two different price range mobile and its sound quality is superb but again these are heavy and I sweat alot. So it get difficult for me to use it longer then 30 minutes. But man o man what a headphones these are!!! Just awesome...
Hi there,
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review for the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x headphones. We're so glad to hear that you are enjoying the beautiful sound quality they provide.
These are my first studio grade headphones. I just bought them a week ago and I cannot describe the feeling I experienced listening to my favorite composers. Every instrument crisp, every note clear. I really love the way it handles the entire frequency range in such a balanced way. One week in, I am already sold. Should have got it sooner.

Firstly, I have to acknowledge the logistics of Headphonezone. I got my order in one day, on request! Thanks for that! Secondly, if you are cruising through the best headphones or exploring more about Audio Technica ATH M50x, don’t think twice, just go for it. Rocking it with iFi Audio Go-Link is a bliss. Trust me, it’s a great combo for most of the songs which we listen to online. You’ll enjoy music rather than critical listening like audiophiles. Happy listening!!
