I got the Ath-m50's in white

Ain't no other headphone fukkin with these at that price point or anywhere near it.


I've had mine since August of 2012. One of the best purchases I have ever made. Never really considered paying $150 for a pair of headphones, but I use these things daily and they are a dream.

But this FiiO E11 done at least doubled my listening experience with these joints.

These Shure SRH840s are just as great if you want a more neutral clear sound :ahh:

I got mine last summer to. And have been pleased with them ever since.
I use em at home so no need for the headphone amp but I was looking in to getting one of those FiiO's for when I do travel.

you like the E11?

I can't complain though these AT's are a beast

Yeah, I'm on the train back n forth every day. If you're not gonna be a heavy traveller with your headphones, I suggest the E6 instead. Mad cheap, but still adds really good improvement to the sound quality.

Ive been wanting to pick up those audio technica m50's for the past 2 years but just can't justify paying more than $100 for some headphones

When the Beats first came out I copped them, and since they were the first good pair of headphones I ever used I was initially blown away. I ended up selling them not that long after and had been using the Zune premium earbuds for awhile, which are really fukking good for how cheap they are. Looking back, the Beats are serviceable and the bass is pretty good, but nowhere near worth the price.

However, I recently got the WeSC RZA Premium Headphones and :blessed:

WeSC x RZA: Chambers by RZA

The looks, comfort, and sound are all :ohlawd:

However, after a month or so I blew out the right headphone and was pissed. (I used a DAC amplifier so normal use will not blow them out) Amazon refunded my money and I got the Audiotechnica ATH-M50 because I heard such great things about them. I was actually kind of disappointed, they sounded about as good as the RZA ones but the sound was much more geared towards studio/mixing use, as each sound was heard very distinctly, whereas the RZA's sound was more warm and full. So I finally redeemed the warranty through WeSC and am very happy I got my RZAs back. Actually I'm looking to sell the Audiotechnicas for like $100 bucks if anyone is interested, I used them for only like 3 weeks.

Edit: Btw everyone who listens to headphones needs to cop a Fiio amplifier. I have the E6 which is great value for 30 bucks and the E07K which is the shyt because of the DAC converter. They both make a HUGE difference, especially with in ear headpones.
