Audio-Technica - ATH-M50xBT2

Audio Technica M50x. Mine are 15 years old. They’re not listed as sweat proof, but they haven’t had issues.

Audio Technica Mx50s. It's what I replaced my AKG K240s with finally after 12 years.

I'm with you on the comfort and EQ actually. I can wear my 900s for hours, they are extremely comfortable. It's amazing what a difference a little adjustments to the EQ can do. I bought a pair of Audio-Technica m50x-BT2 for on the go. They have a parametric EQ. I asked ChatGPT to give me settings for it that would make them sound like my Grados but with bass. They don't sound exact, but they sound good. As far as my actual Grado SR80x goes, I bought the sheepskin pads for them which really brought out the bass, but I lost that musicality they are known for, so again, EQ saved them. Now I have extremely comfortable Grados with bass. Again, not sure if I'll reach an end game per say (I like the way you frame it though), all I know is I'm having fun and that's what matters.

Beyerdynamic DT 900 Pro X I have 5 other pair of headphones, all good quality. It's like an addiction, it's almost like I want to listen to the other five and appreciate them and get my money's worth out of them, but I just can't stop listening to the 900s. Right now I'm listening to the Audio-Technica M50X-BT2. I've adjusted the parametric EQ and am dialing in my preferences with guidance from the web and ChatGPT. I'm giving them a fair chance as I eye my 900 Pro Xs

logitech pro-x or logitech g733 ang na try ko na di sumasakit ulo ko. or kung gusto mo separate, bili ka ng audio technica athm50x (super comfy) tapos mic mo razer seiren mini.

YEah they basically have a V curve boosting highs and lows and cutting mids. Not accurate for mixing.

I use Audio Technica's M50X. It's similar quality, works well with mixers, cancels enough sound to matter, and it's usually 100ish during black friday. The only annoying thing is getting a replacement cable. The included cables are great, but the replacements you'll find are just not as good.

Yeah I agree, I could never game with in ear headphones. Even the ones with squishy tips irritate my ears after an hour at the gym. I stick to more budget friendly cans though, I've been using audio technica ath-m50x for 9 years and they're still great. I've had to fix a couple things because of wear but the actual cans and electronics are still working well and sound great. I'm no audiophile though I just want a quality headset for gaming mostly. Has to have a replaceable cord too because that's always the first thing to fail for me.

That's not really what he asked but I'm with you. I don't buy the really expensive ones but I'll only use studio headphones. audio technica ath-m50x are what I'm currently using, I've had them for 9 years and they still work great. Headphones with a replaceable cord are a necessity, I've had to replace so many gaming headsets because the cords always suck and eventually fail.

Audio technica athm50 have a good amount of bass and really comfortable even for hours

If you're looking for decent wireless noise cancelling in that price category you can always grab a pair of Soundcore Q30 (or 35 if you can get them used/on sale) For plain old wired headphones in the $30-40 range you can always snag the Koss Porta Pros, or the KPH30i. They sound much better than you'd expect, especially if you swap out the pads. Moving up the price range you'll find things like the Audio Technica ATH-M50x (Wired or Wireless), Grado SR60/80 (Wired), Beyer Dynamics DT770 (Wired). These all sound different, ATH being more bass, Grado lots of Treble, and Beyers are flat. If you like thumpy headphones you can absolutely enjoy Skullcandy Crushers, or Marley over ears. The latter have a pretty solid build quality whereas the other are more affordable. Everyone has a preference, so just enjoy what sounds good to you. I would probably shy away from unreviewed no name headphones like those you linked, though!

My Audio Technica MH50x has outlived at least 4 gaming headsets in about 10 years.
