amazon Audio Technica ATH-MH50 reviews
Design
As the name implies, the ATH-MH50 belongs to the Monitor Headphones range dedicated to the studio, so this headset is “professional” from design to sound. As a closed-back hearing aid, the MH50 has a large ear-cup holder, which can hug the ears of the ears and form a muffled noise-canceling wall, as well as stop the music from escaping. The MH50’s Neodymium magnets are 45mm in diameter and are protected by a high quality plastic shell. The ear canal swivels to the artificial leather-bound ATH-MH50, and thus delivers a high-end luxury to the headset. The outer ear is a glossy black plastic case with a glossy aluminum ring and an Audio-Technica logo in the middle. The couplings, the rotation axis of the MH50 can be rotated easily, but not loose and very solid. Head-type headphones often cause headache pain if the headband is too stiff or heavy. But at the MH50, the dome is also covered with artificial leather is very thick, easy to adjust the size, so though headphones weighing 284 gr, still feels very comfortable wearing headphones and enjoy music
The ATH-MH50 is available in two different wire design variants, including the regular MH50 cordless MH50, and the “MH50s” styled “corded” version of the corded cord that resembles the phone cord of the phone. Tables of previous decades, or similar to dedicated wires in studios. For the MH50, the extra length of the wire (3.5m) makes strings that are often tangled, causing trouble for many users. However, the spring-shaped design of the MH50s saves a considerable amount of wire length, only 1.2 m but can extend to 3 m. The casing is made of thick rubber, and the head section of the MH50 has a protective metal spring ring, which significantly increases the durability of the wire.
The Audio-Technica headset uses a 3.5mm jack, and comes with a 6.3mm headphone jack. Available in black and white, but white only in the MH50s. Shortly after the MH50 and MH50s were officially on sale, Audio-Technica continued to launch the MH50, a sleek blue-and-tan version of the MH50, but sold in limited numbers. In general, the “Better wood than good paint” principle seems to fit the MH50, as this is not a fashion headset, but improvements are primarily aimed at bringing the audio experience to the listeners. Because the MH50 turned into a hi-tech toy just to … show off to friends.

Sound
Beside the rugged and sturdy design, the ATH-MH50 features outstanding sound quality. With frequency response 15 – 28kHz, 8 ohm impedance, the MH50 provides very detailed and uniform sound in the frequency bands, clear and smooth bass, smooth midrange, smooth transition to high range.
One of the most noteworthy enhancements to the MH50 is the addition of a sub bass stripe, which allows the headset to play sound well from the 50Hz range downwards with deep, deep bass without the clutter. At present, the headphones are significantly reinforced for the bass strings, but most often pull the effect “color” the sound, so the bass is thick, but not real. The MH50 is one of the few headphones in the Monitor Headphones range for true, subtle yet deep bass, but it does not overwhelm the other two bands while playing music. However, this sub-bass reinforcement has not really made the MH50 become the bass player. In fact, for those who listen to their favorite bass sounds, boom, the modest, gentle manner of playing the low frequency MH50 may not be enough to make them really happy.
The MH50 also owns a medium-detailed stripe with smooth, blur-free sound, while the strips are very bright (sometimes out of order), but not as dazzling as many of the same price ranges on the market. It lacks a bit of flexibility, but it’s a good thing for high-end headphones like Stax, AKG.
Surprisingly, the MH50 plays pretty well in almost every genre, from rustic Country songs, light pop songs to blues-tuned and electric guitars. , Or even more impressive than the contrast, still blends seamlessly between the harsh electric guitars, the heavy bass guitar and the smooth rhythm of Metal and Rock.
Headphones with a closed-back design are often inferior to the open-back headphones on the negative floor, the MH50 is no exception. Despite the clear, true sound, the MH50 does not create a sound level that is deep enough to bring listeners into the real music space. Audio-Technica can be considered as one of the most challenging challenges to overcome for later versions of the MH50. In return, this headset is capable of playing to every detail of the music. Whether playing the solo or performing the performance of a majestic symphony orchestra, the MH50 still produces clear lines of each sound layer in the overall harmony. Each instrument, voice shown on the MH50 completely without overlapping, but peeled, still consistent in the spirit of the whole song.
ATH-MH50 design philosophy favors the home audio experience, in the studio with quiet space, so the headset is not equipped with anti-noise features like rivals in the same line as headphones. QuietComfort 15 Acoustic by Bose or Monster Beats by Dr. Dre. However, thanks to the closed-back design, the ATH-MH50 is “immune” (though not absolute) with noisy noises and impressive music playing even with the listener at crowded places. Unfortunately, the ATH-MH50 does not have a built-in microphone and voice control for the phone.
Notable ATH-MH50 is not only the number 1 choice in the price range of less than $250 for many music enthusiasts, but also the headphones are quite good quality for gamers. Temperamental in playing music, but the MH50 also has the ability to burst explosively in the game, and then “burning” in the continuous fire in the game of resistance as BattleField, when rumbling shaking sound description. The motors screech as the racing car shows the dangers of Need for Speed. With no strength in the Soundstage, the MH50 is not rated for sound movie performance, because the details of the MH50 are not enough to create a real and vital space.
Audio-Technica ATH-MH50 is absolutely not a “mediocre” headphones, and is always a product that many connoisseurs choose, deserves a formidable opponent. For many products in the same segment. The MH50 does not emphasize the fashion element of the design, but the rigid frame is crafted with artificial leather to help the MH50 confidently share its high-end hi-end headphones, as long as the user knows how keep the leather not sloughing.
