Audio Technica athe70 + athr70x

They look kinda strange but sound really good

The headphones sound good. I'm a big fan of the sound. very spacious, detailed, and open. They are very enjoyable to listen to. The winged headband fitment design looks freaking weird, but actually makes a lot of sense. They are lightweight, put low pressure on the head, are really comfortable, and don't mess up my hair like other headphones. Yeah, I worry about my hair. I'm sick of wearing headphones that are heavy and leave a big divot in my hair right before I walk into a work meeting.

I highly recommend these headphones. The price was a little high for what I was accustomed to paying for headphones, but I have no buyers remorse. 100% worth it.

PROS
- They are open back so the sound is more spacious and clear. This is the sound I prefer.
- Very comfortable.
- Detachable cables
- Headband fitment "wings" are lightweight and don't mess up my hair

CONS
- They are open back so all my co-workers hate me when I listen loudly.
- The detachable cables are proprietary to Audio Technica... which means expensive replacement or finding some other off-brand that is cheap
- Higher impedance so an amp is preferred (I use the Apogee Groove on my Mac. its legit)

One of my favorite headphones!

These headphones are awesome! I have had the opportunity to try out a very wide variety of headphones ranging from the consumer level all the way up to the professional studio level and the Audio Technica ATH-R70X are definitely a solid set. The headphones are very comfortable and lightweight that sometimes after long periods of listening I forget that I am even wearing them. I like that these headphones do not have as much sound leakage as most open back headphones and have great dynamic range. The lows, mids and highs are super clean and precise with a well balanced sound stage. I would definitely recommend using an amplifier to get the most out of these headphones.

Work and sound great

Bought these for my wife for her birthday because she has a lot of high quality music saved on her phone and her old earbuds weren't doing the music justice. We both absolutely love them and they've been used every day without issues. The build quality is strong and they seem like they'll last quite some time.

These headphones are DOOOOOPEEEE

These headphones are really really awesome. some of the best in-ears i've ever used. I dont use these headphones for anything other than music so i can't speak to them being good for studio or anything, but man they sound amazing. incredibly detailed when listening to all types of music. i'm hearing things in songs i've listened to 1000 times, that i never heard in the song before. the detail is breathtaking to say the least. they are sliiightly uncomfortable after long periods of time. I normally like is when the cable wraps around your ear, but these ones have this weird bendable housing on it, which feels weird on my ears. i prefere a losing cable, but thats really my only complaint with these. still very comfortable just not for hours on end. highly recommend!
