Audio-Technica ATH-M20XBT

When I first listened to these headphones I noticed that they had a balanced and good sound. Not too much bass, mid or top overall, sometimes a slightly more sharp in the low mids and high frequencies but for basic song mixing and when im listening to music on the bus they are good. Ofcourse you cannot compare those headphones to more expensive studio headphones but soundwise they are the best for the price.

The true negative aspect of the headphones is that while they are comfortable enough the build quality is so and so. One of the cups fell of, but I could fix it by myself which was good. Wont send them back, but I will do minor adjustmentes to make them more sturdy myself. If you only use them at home and dont have them in a totebag or gigbag like I do I guess they will keep togethet just fine.

After deciding that I should get a pair of Bluetooth headphones for my daily commute to work, I stumbled upon these, and to my surprise they are more than I was expecting.
They are extremely light and comfortable. The sound is a bit bass heavy but does a perfect job for when I’m traveling on the tube, or sitting at work. just pop on and off. brilliant pair of headphones for the price. would definitely recommend.

I own and use a small collection of headphones for different purposes, from recording and mixing, to mastering and music enjoyment (Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic, AKG etc). After contemplating on buying a pair of mobile headphones for general use I settled on these. I'm glad I did. First of all I prefer not to buy battery powered wireless devices without a wired connection. The idea of disposing of a product just because the battery dies is annoying and wasteful, so I like that these have a backup cable option. There is even a provided 1.8" to 1.8" cable but any standard cable will do. For those wanting to mix or edit video, a cable is also necessary as there is a noticeable delay when using bluetooth (even in low latency mode). The sound is surprisingly good when compared to other headphones I use that cost 2-3x as much. There might be tad more punch to the bass and a slightly more narrow sound field but nothing dramatic, meaning you'll hear your music the way it was intended. Even though these are closed headphones, external noise is present. If you want good sound isolation look for models with features like more dense ear cups and active noise canceling. I rated the comfort and quality slightly lower because these obviously feel like budget headphones. They are lightweight and made of plastic but seem sturdy enough. Comfort wise they're ok, not too much clamp even for a person who wears glasses. After wearing them for a few hours there isn't any discomfort but are more noticeable on the head than most professional studio headphones. Overall I'm satisfied. Possibly the only wish I have is that they were foldable for more portability but I guess we can't have it all.

I have to change my opinion. Look below ******* to my original review

Great sound, awesome comfort

HORRENDOUS quality!! They have now fallen apart. The phone pads are of a very low standard and fall off their support. Almost impossible to put back. Not worth sending them back to Thomann as I would not accept a replacement of the same product

After a few weeks of use I can NOT recommend these at all.

WOW! What quality. I stumbled across these by accident. So glad I did

Easy to connect them, it almost happened without my intervention, and has made my MacAir showing Netflix or YouTube sound AWESOME!!

I am still to connect to my XVive U2s and my Boss ME90 (if I can) as that is what my original goal was when I bought them

I have extremely bad knees and am unsteady in the confined space of my music room so my goal is to eliminate cables.
