This is the third time that I have to repair these headphones!! Why? Why? Why? Why, did a company as knowable as Audio-Technica design a pair of headphones that prone to failure?
This is the three time now, I have had to have these headphones repairs. I am DONE with Audio-Technica!!
So, save your money with AT, and buy something else!!

Purchased these to use for vocal monitoring. Extremely comfortable for short to medium durations. These do start to hurt a bit after a few hours. Sound is true and hasn't been blown up with unnecessary bass. Extremely happy and would suggest these over some of the other offerings.

Here's what happened to The Audio Technica headphones I owned for 4 months. I pulled the 3.5mm jack out of the phone and the tip remained in the phone. The tip of a 3.5mm jack is the left channel. The headphones come with two cables, so I used the second cable. The second cable is brand new , unused, and the tip came off in less than a week. Audio Technica was contacted and completely ignored me. You've been warned. I will never buy another Audio Technica product.

Comfortable, fits well, adjustable, malleable, durable, good cables. Excellent sound quality for music production, plays bass, guitar and acoustic guitar. The negative point is only for this specific connector of the cables

I really like the fitting of the headphone as it does not irritate my ears after wearing it for a long time. The sound quality is excellent. The foldability of the headphone makes it easy to store especially for travelling. Good pricing for such a great headphone!

Audio-Technica ATH-M40X are excellent studio monitor headphones - surprisingly better than much higher price point studio quality headphone models.
I own them, and am using them in a professional recording environment. They very effectively capture flat full spectrum for detailed studio monitoring.

I have the M50's and love them. I saw the new Lineup at L&M and decided to try them all in store. they are all great. But these sounded best with the ipod nano thats in the display as the they are only 35 ohms. Also they are lighter than My M50's. Got them for $109. I think they were on sale as now they are posted to be $130 now. but a still great choice.
