Audio Technica R50X Open Back Professional Headphone

The ATH-R50x professional open-back reference headphones are crafted to deliver a natural listening experience with a spacious soundstage, making them ideal for critical listening. Built on the foundation of the original ATH-R70x drivers, these headphones have been re-engineered to produce surprisingly powerful bass for an open-back design while maintaining an accurate upper midrange that ensures vocal and lead instrument clarity without compromising balance.

Central to their full-spectrum, natural sound is the pure open-back design, which allows the drivers to deliver uncolored, dynamic audio. The ATH-R50x excels in producing deep sub-bass and a lifelike soundstage without additional acoustic tuning. The fully open earcups enhance comfort over closed-back models, further improved by a newly designed headband and a durable, lightweight build.

Whether for mixing, mastering, or content creation, the ATH-R50x offers precise, dependable reference across stereo, surround, and immersive formats, making it a versatile tool for both professional and home studios.
