## Description

Audio-Technica ATH-M30X On-Ear Stereo Headphone (Black) : desertcart.in: Electronics

Review: Enter AudioTechnica M30X - Exit JBL, Exit Bose, Exit Sony - Enter AudioTechnica M30X Before I start this review, I want to mention that I see a lot of reviews on many websites including desertcart which review a Car and then talk about I) the taste of tyres 2) the smell of the bumper 3) The colour of the chassis. DOES IT MAKE SENSE? Well, if it doesnt please understand that we better talk of build quality, packaging and sound when it comes to a headphone and not about our favourite colour, odour of the box or the thickness of the instruction manual paper. Lets get the basics right. We classify music into: Highs = treble, cymbals (typically 4000-20000Hz) Mids = midrange, female opera singer (350-4000Hz); Lows = bass (20-350 Hz) We also need to assure that the sound quality from the source is the best. This means your old Bollywood songs do not require good headphones and if at all, its a waste of money. Based on these parameters I would rate AudioTechnica for the following songs 1) Cypress Hill - Insane in the Brain Highs - NA Mids -10/10 Lows - 9/10 The M30X captures all the details that one might have missed on other headphones. The mids are splendidly captured, again with good details of the lead vocals. The lows are exceedingly satisfactory but neutral. Bassheads need to look elsewhere. 2) Edward Maya - Historia de Amor Highs - 10/10 Mids -10/10 Lows - NA Once again the M30X captures sounds that one could not hear due to a bad headphone. The highs and mids are a treat to the year. Pure pleasure. 3) Radiohead - Creep Highs - 10/10 Mids -10/10 Lows - 10/10 I love this song. Its one of the best songs to test your headphone along with some tracks from Prodigy and many more. The synchronized chord progression is repeated throughout the whole song, alternating between arpeggiated chords in the verses and last chorus, complimented by loud power chords during the first two choruses. The M30X are unbelievably good here. You really fall in love with these headphones. Trust me, these headphones are a league. If at all I would have to recommend a change it would be a better earpad quality and a Bluetooth for the same price. I know I am demanding for a lot more at this price. Having said that, the M30X are the best balanced headphones in this series. The M50X and M40X are typically for studio use and do not fit in much for personal usage unless your ears are paranormal or you are an alien who can listen to abnormal frequencies. The build quality is very good but could have been much, much better to be the best. The accessories (extension chord and leather bag) are really impressive. Just assure that you listen to the best quality of music from the best possible source and see the magic. Highly Recommended + 10/10.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this headphone have a microphone?**
A: No

**Q: is this loud?? and im very curious to know about the bass??**
A: It is quite loud when connected to a PC/Laptop, but its not very loud when connected to a smartphone. The bass is there but since these are monitor headphones they are not as punchy as they would be on other everyday use headphones.

**Q: Does it Have a metal head band?**
A: i think metal is inside of leather body.

**Q: I generally listen to rock and heavy metal, should I go for these ? Or should I go for Sennheiser HD 449 ?**
A: Yes. You should go for these. These headphones provide pure and detailed sound and are quite balanced. This is the best option in the price range. I did a lots of research before buying these, so I do recommend you to buy these as these headphones will give the same output as the musicians want you to listen to,unless you use any kind of equalizer or sound enhancer. Adios!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good under this budget for mixing and Mastering
*by A***K on 28 May 2024*

Pros: 1. Good Build Quality 2. Produce accurate sound needed for music production 3. Very long Cable length 4. Wide Frequency Range Cons: 1 Uncomfortable during extended usage 2. Some kind of heat sensation in the ear 3. The collapsable feature makes it difficult to maneuver the headset as the speakers have a tendency to stay in the collapsible position
