Audio Technica ATH-W1000X review

 

Best home on-ear headphones £500-£800, Awards 2010. If you don't want to disturb your fellow travellers and those around you, then these beautiful

Superb sound by the standards of closed-back headphones

Not cheap ; don’t feel that secure on your head

Best home on-ear headphones £500-£800, Awards 2010. If you want to listen to music around other people, these closed-back beauties are the way to do so

Audio-Technika ATH-W1000X review

 

With its new high-end flagship headphone, Audio-Technica looks to take on the mighty Sennheiser

Great bass and power ; Modest background noise reduction

Slight coloration ; Headband awkward to handle

A fine advert for the virtues of closed back headphones

Excellent sound reproduction, Light as air to wear

Amazing Sound

 

These sound amazing paired with a dedicated headphone amp and a high quality source. Much better for various kinds of music as opposed to a certain genre, a reason why I've chose them. I used to own the W5000's and those were only suited for certain...
