Audio-Technica ATH-M50XBT2 Wireless Headphones, Black

The Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT2 Wireless Headphones are outstanding if you want professional-grade audio performance combined with the convenience of Bluetooth. These headphones keep the well-known sound signature of the classic M50x studio monitors while adding modern wireless features and improved connectivity. From a technical standpoint, the headphones use 45 mm large-aperture dynamic drivers, which deliver excellent clarity, strong midrange detail, and controlled low-frequency response. The sound profile is very balanced and accurate, making them great not only for casual listening but also for music production, mixing reference, and critical listening. Key technical highlights: • 45 mm drivers provide detailed and dynamic audio reproduction • Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity for stable wireless performance • Support for high-quality codecs like AAC and LDAC for higher-resolution wireless audio • Multipoint pairing allows connection to two devices simultaneously (for example a phone and laptop) • Excellent battery life—over 60 hours of playback on a full charge • Quick-charge capability that provides hours of listening from a short charge The build quality is also impressive. The headphones feel sturdy and professional, with comfortable ear pads and a design that seals around the ears for good passive noise isolation. Controls on the ear cup are intuitive, and the built-in microphone works well for calls or online meetings. Another feature I really appreciate is that the headphones can be used both wirelessly and with a cable, making them versatile for studio setups, travel, or everyday listening. Overall, these headphones deliver excellent sound accuracy, long battery life, and strong connectivity, making them a fantastic choice for musicians, producers, content creators, or anyone who wants studio-level audio quality in a wireless format.

One of the best bang for your buck high end headphones. Sound quality is as good as the wried version and comfort hasn't changed at all. Easy enough to stash away in a backpack or larger purse while traveling or just leave them around your neck. Charging can be done with any USB c and is fairly quick. Battery life is good and can last a fair while on standby if there's no active playback. I've used them for work calls and while traveling. If needed there's adapters to make them wired again but those can be kinda cludgy.

Sound quality: very good Battery life: excellent Comfort: very comfortable, but high headband clamping pressure Build quality: excellent Portability: pretty good I had my eye on these headphones for a while, but never pulled the trigger, as they are not cheap as far as these type of headphones go. I will be using this almost exclusively for media viewing on my tablet at night. I also wanted something semiportable for occasional travel. I will sometimes use them for music, although I own a high-end audio system for that purpose. I have 2 pair of Focal headphones for serious listening sessions. The sound quality is very good, although I do wish they had a little more volume to them. If you wanted that, you'll need to run them in wired mode and use a dedicated headphone amp. The bluetooth works very well, and the app allows equalization among other settings. It is not necessary to use the app to use the headphones. The bluetooth pairing was fast and painless. They are extremely comfortable. The material of the earcups and headband are high-quality. I find the headband clamping pressure to be higher than I like, but the headphones are so comfortable that I don't think it's going to be an issue. They are also comfortable while wearing eyeglasses. The joints appear to be well-designed and strong. I usually do not buy headphones that are foldable for this reason, as they just don't last, even when treated gently. I don't think that is the case here. Unlike some of the better bluetooth headphones out there, the control buttons are placed so that they're actually usable. Other high-end brands that I've owned had terrible ergonomics in this regard. The battery life seems excellent. After 1 week of daily use, the battery charge has hardly changed from a full charge. I bought a pair that were Amazon reconditioned. They appeared lightly used, but not in like-new condition. The product description made it seem like they were either open-box or unused and repaired. The only reason that I'm not complaining is that I got these for a very good price. So far, so good. Recommended.

I wanted to give it 5 for sound and quality but 3 for ease of setup with a computer there is no computer app to pair it but I guess it’s meant to be paired with a phone so 4 seems fair

These headphones are very nice sounding, comfortable and have great battery life. I am super-pleased with these. Some headphones can be too bass heavy or the highs can be too high which can be irritating and nerve-racking, but these are quite neutral which is a good thing in my opinion. I have an iPhone and downloaded their app and it has an equalizer where you can adjust the sound to better suit your personal preference. I did adjust the equalizer and I really like it better than the default setting, so I recommend that you check the app out. These are not noise-cancelling headphones but the padding is pretty thick and does block a lot of noise. I have a very loud air condition unit outside my window and this really does a nice job blocking out most of the noise. I've had these for almost two years(bought in April 2022) and use them almost every day and they are holding up very well. For the record, I don't throw them around, etc. I think these would fit most people's heads. I have a large head and can expand them to fit me fine. These are not the lightest headphones, but I think they are comfortable and I wear them hours at a time. I wear them inside so I never get too hot. They are over-the-ear headphones so they might get warm but for me it hasn't been an issue. I might occasionally take them off for a minute or crack the seal to let some air in. Privacy note: They do have an option in the app where you can turn off data sharing. It did surprise me to find out that Audio-Technica collects information about my usage, but other companies do this too, like Bose. The Audio-Technica app does say the data collected is not personally identifiable. Anyway, I just thought I would mention this for those of you who are privacy minded.

I don’t usually leave reviews, but these headphones deserve every bit of praise. The Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT2 absolutely exceeded my expectations. SOUND QUALITY: The audio is simply incredible — rich, detailed, and balanced. The bass is tight and punchy without being overwhelming, mids are clear and natural, and highs are crisp without harshness. I can pick up nuances in my music that I never noticed before. Whether it’s casual listening, mixing, or watching movies, these deliver studio-quality sound. BLUETOOTH PERFORMANCE: Seamless connection with my devices (both Android and Windows PC). The low latency is noticeable — movies and YouTube videos stay perfectly in sync, and I haven’t experienced a single dropout. Plus, multipoint pairing is a great bonus. COMFORT: Super comfortable even during long listening sessions. The ear pads are soft and the headband has just the right amount of clamping force. I can wear them for hours without fatigue. BATTERY LIFE: Battery life is phenomenal. I get days of use on a single charge, and USB-C charging is fast and convenient. BUILD QUALITY: Solid and durable — typical Audio-Technica craftsmanship. They feel like a professional tool, not a cheap plastic toy. OVERALL: If you’re looking for wireless headphones that sound like true wired studio monitors, look no further. The ATH-M50xBT2 hits that rare sweet spot of pro audio quality with wireless convenience. Highly recommended — one of the best purchases I’ve made this year!

These are excellent studio quality headphones. They don't have the bass like my last ones, which were crushers but the over all sound quality is pristine these were an excellent buy and I would suggest them to anyone.

Pc users: If you are running into a problem were the headphones sound scratchy, it is because of the voice input. There is a way to turn it off and it boosts the sound quality to what they are ment to be. Research how to turn it off it is different depending on your operating system. Sound Quality is absolutely amazing. Definitely worth every penny Perfect over ear headphones

What can I say... there's no other words that can describe the sound quality and superior build structure. Those 45mm drivers delivers whatever you ask them to do without distortion or clipping. The included AK4331 DAC inside M50xBT2 alone is enough to explain how powerful M50xBT2 sounds like. Want Bass? It delivers... want Treble? It delivers. Anything you throw at it either through Equalizer or AT Connect App EQ will DELIVER!! LDAC? It is included and supported! Leaves wired headphones to the dust. What more do you need? I hate wired headphones and ANC so... M50xBT2 works for perfectly for me👌

Harika ötesi bir kulaklık,sesin her enstrümanını ayrı ayrı hisedersiniz,üst düzey(audio technica,başka bir söze gerek bile yok)adam lar bu işin ustaları.Üründen çok memnunum ve imkanı olan herkese tavsiye ederim:not(biraz pahalı ama buna değer bence,uzun yıllar sizi asla üzmez.

Les + : - Son excellent, fidèle et équilibré, parfait pour tous les styles de musique. - Autonomie au top (40h) et Bluetooth stable avec multipoint. - Confortable, mais peut serrer un peu sur de longues sessions - hyper malléable (voir photos) - je l’ai depuis plusieurs mois et la qualite est toujours au rendez-vous Les - : - Micro correct, mais sans plus. - Pas de réduction active de bruit, mais bonne isolation passive - sur de longue session d'écoute : peut serrer un peu la tête Très bon casque pour les amateurs de son, sans fioritures. Idéal pour écouter mes enregistrements de guitare 💬 Je partage mon expérience pour aider ceux qui hésitent, en espérant que cet avis vous sera utile.

Me pregunto qué he estado haciendo hasta ahora. Tengo unos Sennheiser HD 435 y unos Razer Kraken Tournament Edition que llevan un DAC THX pero estos M50BT2 ofrecen una calidad de otro mundo. Realmente parece que escuchas la música por primera vez, como el artista quiso que se escuchara en el estudio de grabación. Es realmente impresionante. Seguramente pensabas que disfrutadas de la música como yo, pues.. no. SONIDO : Ahora sí que se aprecian todos los sonidos y los instrumentos, los bajos estan muy equilibrados pero cuando entran son muy potentes sin distorsion pero donde noto mas realce es en los medios y agudos. Las voces y los platillos suenan cristalinos. Lo más destacable es la claridad del sonido y la capacidad de la persona que escucha de poder distinguir cualquier efecto. No tienen cancelación de ruido pero mis orejas son pequenas y quedan perfectamente cerrados ofreciendome una escena de sonido muy buena. SONIDO A TRAVES DE NVIDIA SHIELD PRO : En las opciones de desarrollador de la shield detecta LDAC aunque solo a 16 bits a 48 khz (En las opciones de shield viene la opcion de hasta 32 bits a 96khz) COMPATIBILIDAD CON IPHONE 15 PRO MAX BLUETOOTH: Solo SBC/AAC, LDAC es solo para Android, una pena, pero he comprado un adaptador usbc a jack 3.5 para tener la maxima calidad por cable. Si estoy en casa puedo conectarme a la shield pro por LDAC así que no hay perdida de calidad en ningun caso. CABLES : calidad mediocre por no decir algo peor, son cables muy standard, mis cascos Razer de 80 euros tienen cable trenzado y del cargador es muy corto. REPRODUCCION CON DAC : Tengo 2. El de los cascos Razer con THX, es un dac que suena muy bien limitado a 96khz y algo vitaminado en el sonido para gaming, con graves potentes pero lejos de la claridad que me aporta el DAC de mi antigua tarjeta de sonido Creative X-fi Fatal1ty Professional Series con 192khz y Crystalizer es donde obtengo el maximo detalle en la musica con estos auriculares. He realizado las pruebas sin ecualizar para no alterar demasiado el sonido, sólo ajustando los graves y agudos y Crystalizer al 60%. COMODIDAD : Nuevos aprietan sí y a las 2 horas se hace difícil soportarlos pero la gente dice que si los pones en su caja terminan dando de sí. Calurosos tambien, lo noto en pleno invierno pues en verano tiene que ser bastante peor, pero con A/C en casa a 20 grados no debe ser un problema. CONCLUSIONES : La relación calidad precio me parece excelente, dudo que haya algo mejor, tal vez lo peor sea la calidad de los cables y que para disfrutar al maximo de estos auriculares por cable necesitas un DAC y musica Lossless o si es por bluetooth un sistema Android con LDAC, en Iphone hay que conformarse con AAC pero tambien hay adaptadores usbc/jack3.5 para conectarse por cable.

They have been making the same product for over a decade. It still sounds the same, looks the same, actuates the same, is the same comfy feel on the head and around the ears, but now comes with the power of bluetooth. The app isn't very useful or necessary, the battery life is decent. Only downside is if you have a greasy head the band and cups won't like you too much and will start disintegrating. Luckily, ear cups can be replaced, head band not so much. What a great product 10/10 would recommend.
