Got these for specifically gaming. And I'm impressed I had to replace my audio Technica 40x after 3 years and after using these headsets for gaming, music, and movies I was blown away for the price. The material feels to plastic but let it bring you down this pack a punch once you eq them. you can easily make out foot steps. I did had to replace the 3.5m to 6.35 cable after a year for these, but I do recommend these. You can't really go wrong for 40$.
Thanks for the review man, I wasn't sure first if I want to order the headphones or not but now, It looks like it's extremely useful especially me making Nightcore music for my channel...Thanks
If you’re just playing to jam, they will be ok. If you are monitoring for recording, you should spend a few extra bucks and get something with more range. You can always check the used section at B and H for some Sony’s or Sennheiser’s. You’ll want to make sure your mix is just right.
Is this headphone considered flat? I've been using it for a while now, and from what I hear, its low frequencies are too boosted. I Have other cheaper headphone which i think better than this.
I would not call these a very dynamic headphone. They are cheap, but for what they are work fairly well. I do use them still from time to time. I mostly keep these in a camera bag to check levels.
I don't have them with me, but I believe both earphones have an input jack. This is because you can jump off the headphones and input a second pair of headphones from them.
Great vid! :) would you recommend this for quite instrument playing? been looking for decent yet affordable headphones that I could plug in directly to my amp for quite practice. Thanks!
Yup. I think these would work great for that. I personally use a tube amp, so it’s to high output to test, it for a solid state amp these would work just fine.
@@Levelrapper If you are mastering audio, I would recommend some higher end head phones. You will not get all the subtle differences with these. My main use is to monitor audio in the filed, or editing at night when everyone else is sleeping. I finalize audio with studio speakers or a high end pair of Sennheisers.
john tang impersonally use sennheiser headphones as my go to before this review. I do think my sennheiser’s sound a little better, but for 3-4 times the price. But the Maono’s were very continued wear for an hour or two at a clip. I cannot comment to the Sony’s as I haven’t used a pair of Sony headphones in years. Those sennheiser’s were just too damn good. Now I will not be replacing my old sennheiser headphones with these Maono’s but I will be putting them in a second camera bag, and using them when I edit at home and my tot is screaming her lungs off. But for anyone looking to get some quality equipment for a good price, these MH601’s are a great start.
While I can't remember the model of Audio Technica headphones I use to have, I would say these are pretty comparable. I feel like these would make a pretty good replacement.
@@jeffgrantMEDIA Thanks for the reply man, after watching your video and a few other reviews I decided to pull the trigger on this one. Great video, gained yourself a sub!
@@AmbientWanderer They're pretty good sound-wise, a bit muddy and I noticed some strange boost around 3k-5k but still a clear sound nonetheless. Comfort-wise, eh. They're not really tight fitting and are prone to falling out if you move too hard, and the stock earcups are a bit small for my ear. Sound isolation is good, but fades in and out if you move your head side-to-side although I do believe it's more because of my too big ears. Pretty decent headphones if I say so myself, especially in it's price point plus you get replaceable cords which is rare at these price range. Also the quality is phenomenal
Ricardo Cali I’ve never used those Audio technica headphones. So I would have to say Maono. But if I had a set to test and compare, the answer might be different.
@@TauruS23Journal n don’t play drums and never tried them with electric drums. They are an ok all around entry level headphone. I still have them to this day and share them with my daughter to watch our tablets. I use them to watch my show when she has commandeer to the TV. She uses the one I’m watching TV and she’s watching RUclips.
There is no such thing as the perfect bag. Haha. The closest I found is my B.O. Gear/A19 Proto bag. I’ve used my original B.O. Gear bag for everything from EDC, Travel, Hiker, Dad Bag, ect. It can do it all. The proto added the laptop compartment to it. Though I prefer the look of my OG WTF bag.
If you have a limited budget, I feel these would get the job done. But if you are serious about producing music, I would look into better options for sound clarity.
@@shakirsartaz1851 than these would be good form you. You will not hear the subtle differences between these and a several hundred dollar pair of headphones.
I’m sure they would work. And if you are a beginner, i would recommend getting something like this. If you have been recordings awhile, you might want to invest in something a little higher end to hear all the subtle differences while recording.
They are still holding up pretty well. I’ve actually been using them to watch the movies and shows on my tablet while my daughter takes over the TV with things I’ve seen 10000000X’s. It the sound quality and finish are both working well and looking good.
@@jeffgrantMEDIA well I'm hoping to finalize and order a pair tomorrow. Jeff if you are interested, the OneOdio Studio Pro 50 has lots of positive reviews. It provides a neutral sound base which is good for my music mixing and gaming. The newer model is the Studio Pro 30. More punchy low end and a balanced mid and high. Also 50mm with 32ohms output. The specs are badass and I am getting both!
im using the oneodio right now and theyve lasted me a nice 1 1/2 years but they're starting to fall apart now and arent as comfortable as they look and get very hot. id say go with the maono
I don’t play video games, so I do not know. But there is no built in mic. So I would think you would want to look elsewhere. These are billed as podcasting/ DJ gear.

I have never used the m50x. So I cannot give. Direct comparison. But I have used some other (cheaper) audio-technica headphones, and I can cat they were on par with those. I don’t remember the model number, but they were around the $50-$75 mark.

Pro tip: don’t let your kids play with your headphones. Mine are pretty old and are not broken. Also they are $40!headphones. You’re not $400 sennheiser’s.
@@jeffgrantMEDIA I want to know if the audio is good, if the pads are big enough to absorb the whole ear. and that the audio sounds good. Thanks in advance
kevin Mardonez the pads are pretty large. They cover my whole ear. Though each persons ears will be different ( I feel as thought I have average ears) so they may not cover everyone’s ears completely. They are comfortable to wear for a long time (45-60 minutes). I can’t say for hours though (I’m not a gamer so I don’t wear them for hours at a time). The sound quality is pretty good. Not quite as good as my Sennheiser headphones, but pretty damn close and at 1/4 the price.

@@candyheistmusic cool, thanks for replying ☺️
Hey, great video, man! I wonder how the materials in the headphones hold up to date. I would be glad if you could answer me.
They are holding up fine. I have been using a different pair of headphones for some time now. But these still look good.
I think i'd buy them. They're pretty cheap there in Russia(2490 roubles or 33-34 usd).
About 35-36 here

Would they be good for gaming? Games like CS:GO, Valorant etc so hearing footsteps and "3d" sound is important
I'm not a gamer. So I cannot say for sure if they would work in this application.
Not good for gaming
may i know the song for your background music?
It’s just a track from the RUclips music library. I’d have to open the project to find out the name of it.
How good are these when it comes to mixing mastering monitoring audio as a music producer?
I don’t do music production. If I did I would purchase a high end set of headphones to hear the subtleties when mastering.
How do they compare with the Audio Technica M20x? I'm planning to buy this as a replacement to my aging M20x that's starting to distort
While I can't remember the model of Audio Technica headphones I use to have, I would say these are pretty comparable. I feel like these would make a pretty good replacement.
