Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT2 Wireless Over-Ear Headphones (Deep Sea Blue)

Finally, after years of buying cheap to mediocre headphones I decided to spend a little more and bought these. They definitely aren't the most expensive but they are so damn good. Really comfortable for hours of music or hours of guitar playing. Sound is incredible and the ability to go wired for guitar or wireless for phone is a God send.

10/10 as far as I'm concerned

These are great so far, I mostly use them for classes, casual music listening, and a bit of gaming. I personally hate noise cancelling headsets, so these are great! They are comfy, although the clamping force is a bit tight. This can hopefully be fixed by use over a period of time though. Passive noise cancellation just from the ear cups is fairly good, although the 360 swiveling earcups are great because I like to listen to music with one ear uncovered so I can still hear what's going on around me. So far so good, I will change this review if anything comes up, but given the record of AT in the past, I mostly likely won't run into anything.

Awesome all rounder

I use these for studio monitoring, gaming, Roland e-drums, iPhone Bluetooth. Awesome all rounder headphones. Crystal clear. Comfy and good noise cancelling.

Best wireless headphones

When I first put them on I did not like how hard they clamped down on my ears and head. My ears are a bit sensitive to pressure and after wearing my Beats for an hour, my right ear often hurts. The Bose QC45s are so comfortable and sound really good. The ATs don't have all the features... I decide to try cranking the volume. Wow the ATs sound amazing at higher volume levels! The Bose and my corded Sony MDR-7506 start to sound harsh while the AT's just get better. I am very curious if the extra pressure squeezing my head has a positive effect on the sound? I do not mind the pressure on my ears as much as I expected. These have twice the battery life of the Bose and sound better, yes please.

Decent headphones for daily use.

Decent sound and comfortable while sitting or standing. They sit a little loose though, so if leaning back in a chair, eg in a plane, with seat reclined, they will tend to slowly slip off. Also no noise cancellation, even passive noise reduction is very minimal.Battery life seems good and Bluetooth works well on these with everything I tried them with

Faulty headphones

This product was disappointing. I spent months looking for good quality headphones and I chose audio technica over other options. I was initially pleased with the headphones but shortly after I kept getting errors with them. The headphones would freeze and there is no simple way to reset them, it is not possible to turn them off or disconnect them. You would have to let the battery die and then plug them back in and turn them on or they would not work. Optionaly you would have to plug them in to the usb cord and reset them, the reset can only be done while plugged in. I checked trouble shooting and other online sources to try and resolve the issue but no dice. I tried contacting customer support but no luck. Do not buy and spend your money elsewhere.

No, I wouldn't buy this again.

I got these headphones as a cheaper more reliable pair. They worked great for about 1 month and then literally the day after the return date they started to become faulty. They started cutting out every few seconds and I just couldn't deal with it. I ended up having to plug them in to get any sound out of them at all. 0/10 would not recommend it for people playing games, listening to music, or recording their own audio.

Same experience as other 1 star review

Used for gaming and music making. I own the old cordless and bought as the old one started flaking in the ear pad and head section. Very disappointed in having a similar situation as the 1 star reviewer after about 2 months of use. It now works for about 15-20 minutes then "freezes" or basically is not operable with no sound and a blinking light. No troubleshoot info to fix.

Solid M50's

I've used these for a few days now, both on and off campus, and around the city. They're solid bluetooth headphones for the price point.They maintain roughly the same quality audio as the studio M50's that AT makes, but bluetooth cant really ever reach that level of fidelity.They're good at blocking out ambient noise, and you dont need to have them up on high volume to drown out people talking, or the general sounds of a campus/generally noisy environment.I've messed around with the integrated google assistant a few times so far - the sound quality on the mic monitoring is poor, and picks up lots of ambient noise - i havent tried to use that outdoors yet, but i dont think it will work well in an outdoor setting if there's wind or background noise (a road, ... MoreI've used these for a few days now, both on and off campus, and around the city.

Sound quality doesnt improve much using the included cable, and if you touch the cable at all, you can hear the sound travel into the headphones themselves. On top of that, the cord is only 3 feet. I was attempting to use it on a ProTools session and couldnt move to the opposite side of my mixing console, without these being restricted - leaning was a no-go as well. It might be worth investing in a longer headphone cable if you plan to switch between using them as BT headphones and also studio monitors (which, i genuinely believe these make decent monitor headphones).Overall, theyre a solid product. I've used them for about 8 hours every day since getting them, and the battery level on the app is currently reading 95%. I'd totally recommend these to anyone who's looking for good BT headphones with balanced audio, and decent features. I used them the entire time i was writing this review, was not disappointed.

Would buy again in a heartbeat

Love this headphone set. Fits my smaller head perfectly. Comfy to wear. Bluetooth is flawless. Sound is immersive and takes my music to a new level. Also blocks out external noise even with no music on. So glad I bought these. Would recommend! Made in Taiwan. Looks and feels high quality and is built solid. Only thing that isn't great is the bag it comes with. They don't fit inside it. It's a noodle scratcher. It's a nice bag too!
