Audio-Technica ATH-M50XBT2LAB Wireless Over-Ear Headphones, Black

People say the ATH-M50xBT2 LABs are just overpriced M50xBT2s… but they look cool and still sound amazing. Like, I get it — it’s a reference headphone, it’s not trying to color the sound. But everything I threw at it? Still felt crisp. Loud. Clean. I’ve taken a bunch of compression tests — flunked most of them. 2 out of 6, I was straight up guessing. I couldn’t tell a thing. Everything sounded great, even in Bluetooth mode. So maybe I’m not that “audiophile-type” with superhuman ears, but with Boom 3D on my Mac and the M50 profile loaded up? It just hits. Battery life? Long haven't charged them yet and use them daily plugged in mostley but BT when I need to move around the house and the distance is crazy long I've dropped these three times already due to using cords just not used to it yet — no scuffs, no issues, still sound like the day I opened them. Full disclosure: I swapped the pads. Tried Brainwavz and Yaxi Pads (STPad2s). The Yaxis changed everything. More comfort, better seal, better sound. They made these way more enjoyable than the stock pads or the Brainwavz Pro. Bluetooth volume is lower than wired, yeah — but still sounds great. And honestly? I’m probably nuking my ears with how loud I normally listen, so it’s probably doing me a favor. It just feels good knowing I got a studio set that delivers, feels solid, and has proven long-term value. Everyone says these last 2+ years easy, and I believe it. I also own AirPods Pro 2 — and these crush them on clarity. I know, it’s apples and oranges comparing over-ear to in-ear, but these easily beat my AirPods Pro 1s. And the battery life isn’t even close — M50s win that too. If your ears are picky, these are solid cans. The angled driver sits just right, and the fit’s perfect even for my big head — I don’t even need to adjust the band. No pressure, no fatigue. Bottom line? Clean sound, strong build, real comfort, stupid good battery. I'm keeping these in rotation for a long time.

Amazing sound quality! Big Plus, the material does not pull nor rub the hair off the top of my head like all the others.

Sounds great and feels just like the wired M50s. The option to connect the headphones with a wire is a nice touch, though the wire provided could stand to be longer. My one qualm is that it doesn't have audio passthrough or noise canceling of any kind, which is becoming increasingly common among better-quality wireless headphones. Would only recommend if you've tried the M50s before and are happy with the same product but wireless.

So far this is the great headphones I ever have, I like the material, sound quality is great, comfortable for my ears too. There is money there is quality.

Todo excelente

If you are looking for some general use headphones for windows 10 these are not it. The criteria I was looking to satisfy: -Quality sound for listening to music, online media, and video game immersion. -Mic for occasional chatting via discord. -Noise cancelling as much as possible, I want the outside world to disappear when I have headphones on. -Wireless. Too many times I get up to do something 6 feet away only to have my corded headset act as a leash. -Usable on a windows machine. I am not taking stars off for sound quality when in headphone mode, but I did learn I don't like studio quality headphones as the sound is very flat and I like more bass as it turns out. Very neutral sound from these. Comparison is to an old coolermaster MH670 which someone recommended to me. I didn't even know they made headsets until then. I've since purchased Bose for comparison since I've heard those are typically more bass focused. Here are the main issues I have with the ATH m50xbt2, especially having to do with my use case on a widows os: 1. If you try to use headset mode, it will turn on aware mode. I tried all sorts of tricks from others on various forums who had this problem. Disabling devices, uninstalling drivers, pairing and unpairing. I could hear myself typing, clicking, the fan in my room, everything. 2. If you decide you just won't use it in headset mode and keep it as a pair of listening headphones you have to delete or disable the headset variant of the driver it installs every time you pair it. So every power cycle at least. 3. Maybe it would be fixable if I paired the headset to my phone AND to the PC simultaneously, installed their app on my phone and manually controlled the headset from there. No. I'm not doing all that. I want to keep my phone at minimal apps installed. I read online this was a "fix" but I didn't try it personally. Too many apps out there just siphoning your data. 4. Band makes it tight on head but that's just personal comfort. The size of the ear pads were fine for me however. It's really too bad as I had heard good things from others about the m50x but I would avoid using these on a windows machine. Personally that won't work for me so I'll have to see about returning these. I don't experience any of these headaches with the Bose I got to compare. The other headsets default sound profile also is a better fit to my listening preference.

Around 90 days in a short in the circuitry cut off the sound in the right earmuff. I have had 4 ATH M50x products. This was the first time this malfunction has occured in any of them in over a decade of using them.

wow, great quality sounds not cheap but worth the price. not the most comfortable but not bad either.

Perfeito!! Qualidade da contrução e do audio, tudo dentro do que eu preciso e espera. Não é barato mais vale pela experiência e qualidade! Recomendo!

Bluetoothでの接続は電源を入れるだけで簡単に繋がります。アプリがあるとイコライザをイジれてなお良い。 注意点は有線で使用する場合、ケーブルをヘッドホン側に挿す際に、一番太い部分までしっかり挿す必要がある。これが少し硬い。金属部分が隠れるぐらいではちゃんと挿さっていない。 そのあたり誤解されてる方が居るように感じた。 写真のように挿さっていれば、ちゃんと聞こえます。

I also have the wired MX50x, so the orange color accent makes it easy to identify the LABs. I was a little disappointed that the "audio-technica" logo on the top is not in white, but no big deal. Sound is great for me, as is battery life. The reason I've taken a star off the rating is the function buttons - they feel a little cheap and not designed to be obvious to the touch - I have to feel the buttons very carefully for a few seconds to make sure I'm going to press the correct one. I think the designers should have spent more time evaluating the button design by touch alone, so that you have confidence without thinking.

夏場に外でするのは向いてませんが、空調の効いた部屋で、音楽や作業に没頭したいときはとても役に立ちます。 単色のヘッドホンが多いなかで、オレンジのアクセントもお気に入りです。

アマゾンのレビューとYouTubeの評価を観て購入しました。が、聴いてみて愕然としました。 Bluetoothはやっぱりと言うか、当然と言うか音の劣化が否めません。特に低音で音圧が上がる所になると音がノーマライズされて小さく迫力を喪失します。聴き比べれば誰でもすぐ分かると思います。 要するにATX-M50xにレシーバーとバッテリーを搭載しただけのコスト増しヘッドホンです。 これならばATX-M50xを買った方が良いと思います。
