    Excellent review. I guess I will stick with my m50x. Are the Sennheiser 6XX/650 really amazing? I currently have HD598 and love them too. I like open back cans more than closed back so I was considering upgrading to the 6XX next time Massdrop puts them on sale. But I'm wondering if they are significantly better than the HD598 or just marginally better?

    I stepped on my 14 year old ATH-M50s a few weeks ago. They did break sometime last week, but they at least initially survived being stepped on with my full weight. They were also the lightest and most comfortable headphones I have ever used. Now I'm debating if I want another pair, want to step up to a ATH-M60X or ATH-M70X or try the Beyer Dynamic 770 Pro just cause I'm curious.

  • @ARC87
    @ARC87 5 лет назад +2

    The Beyerdynamic Aventho Wired are a very nice-looking, portable on-ear pair. They are much more portable (and expensive) than the ATH-M60x, but who knows if they actually sound better... would be interesting to check. Thanks for your tests!

    I love my new M60X and my M50X are now collecting dust. The dip around 430Hz is similar on both headphones as they share the same transducer. I measure similar performance on both. But for some reason, the M50X has a much worse dip at 6kHz.

    • @allthebestmoves
      @allthebestmoves 4 года назад

      ThinkingBetter hey I wanted to ask, is there any difference in the low end area? I feel like my M50x are way too weak with sub-bass for electronic music mixing and I'm thinking about m60x but I am not sure if this will be an upgrade when it comes to low frequencies. Also, aren't they less comfortable during long sessions?

    Owning both, I would say the following... Sound signature, headphone and sound are completely objective so take all videos and reviews with a pinch of salt, including this comment, but for me the higher fidelity headphones are the 60's, despite occasional bright signature with songs that are treble heavier. I hear more detail in the 60's, and soundstage are night and day between these two and that is a fact, but you won't go wrong with either for the price. Happy listening my audiophile freinds.

    @mrfrosty3 3 года назад +11

    I like the M60 a lot more than the M50. I feel the M50 has a more typical consumer sound signature, a bit bloated and suited to modern pop tunes, this may explain their broad appeal. I feel like if I wanted I can get that same sound from many headphones and at a lower price. The M60 to me has a tighter, more detailed and refined sound. I also like that the M60 doesn't fold, when using headphones for field recording and for studio work folding can be a pain in the ass. They inevitably end up folding themselves from getting nudged and from taking them on an off. For fun I find pairing them with a Bluetooth mini DAC/amp like the Fiio BTR5 is superior to any wireless headphone on the market.

    My M40X (which i loved) headphones broke, after several years of daily usage. They lasted long enough for me to purchase replacement "earpads". I decided to move up to the M50X and they deliver so much better sound than the M40X. When the current M50X bite the dust, gonna spring for the M70X in the series... maybe. I don't think I can justify the extra cost when my ears enjoy the 50 just fine.

    ATH-M50x is more durable???
    Mine broke in only 10 months of use. Not only did one side snap the other side snap'd too. I was so fucking gentle with them it wasn't even funny, if i knew i was going to be rough while moving about i would use my backup headset, but still while being gentle the earpads peeled and the hinges snapped on both sides. Like for real thats horrible quality.
    I at least expected the ATH-M60 with no joints and metal instead to be more durable but maybe im going crazy.

One was Crash by Dave Matthews Band which is very well recorded. Metal, classical.. etc. I just feel the 50's are warmer and have better spatial abilities.. Plus the 60's being small and not going over the ears was a no go for me as well. They immediately felt uncomfortable. Maybe I just have big ears lol.. Great review guys!

      The M60x has a different housing than the M50x. The ear cups are also much smaller yet deeper than the M50x. A simple ear-pad change could make the M50s (or any headphone) sound drastically different, let alone reinvigorating the entire headphone.

    Between the two, i would get the M60X. Treble on the M50X is unbearable, like it was piercing my ear drums, to the point i had to listen to the M50x at low volumes. When buying a headphone, do not just rely on the internet reviews. Go to a store where you can listen to several headphones. Bring your own music sources. Spend the time comparing how the headphones sound. At the end decide which one sound best for you and make the purchase.

      The M40X is great. I bought it over the 50X because it has a flatter frequency curve and isn't bass heavy like the 50. The only thing I would improve is adding more cushion to the ear pads because after hours of wearing them with my glasses it would be uncomfortable and my ears would feel pinched between the phones and the glasses.

    The main reason is Ossic X headphones is the best in the world because of the great sounds its able to produce its like the performer is performing live infront of you, which other brands cannot do other then Osdic X headphone. The thrill of liveness. Once you used it then you throw other headphones into the bin.

      We’d love to hear more about what makes you feel that way. On our end though, it’s really important to us that our reviews represent the same experience users will have (which is why we make sure to by all of our own products). We also base our reviews on our subjective measurements to try and mitigate any risk of personal bias’ being a factor!

    How did zeos love these m60x and dislike the m50x? I suspect he's full of the brown stinksauce in his reviews. The m50x are great, probably better than sennheiser hd600 tbh. The bass is stronger, the highs seem Fuller and less crackly than the hd600. The hd600 probably has the better midrange but the m50x is a very good midrange. I can't think of anything better than m50x tbh. Monolith m1060 has better bass and mids are warmer but the highs aren't as good as m50x. Overall m50x is my reference headphone.

      John Butner People would be much better off if they didn’t put so much stock in some random guys opinions and instead tried things for themselves and formed their own opinions. He’s just another guy trying to make money doing videos. All RUclips channels are.
      I have the M50x’s also and think they’re great. I’ve passed up and returned much higher end headphones because I thought my M50x’s sounded better. Many products get hyped for the wrong reasons but the M50x’s actually earned theirs.

      I just returned a newly purchased MSR7 which many people including Zeos raved about. It was too damn bright and the subbass was anemic. It left me with the impression that people who love the MSR7 can't hear high frequencies well so they enjoy that treble spike it has. I love high frequency detail as I have RAAL ribbons in my living room. And I'm not a bass head by any means as I find myself turning down the bass on most every closed headphone/iem I touch. My car is near flat and places in SQ comps. I like flat because to me, flat means accurate.
      I've owned the M50 since maybe 2009; headband and pads all mangled. It remains one of my favorite headphones and I never feel the need to reach for the EQ with them. They're not nearly as V shaped as people claim. My ears heard that long before my eyes saw a graph confirming it. There's a reason these headphones fall at 6th on Rtings for closed back critical listening. While they don't have the best soundstage, they are close to accurate with their frequency response and my ears like that.

      Where do you see music being represented by numbers? You don't seem to know what you're talking about.
      You do understand that hi-fi is about accurate sound reproduction, right?
      This review quantifies the quality of the headphones in an objective and verifiable way. This includes build quality, comfort, and quality of reproduction.
      What you see here should be the baseline for every audio component review.

      They didn't just drop you one too many times... I got shut down? Ahaha, you're utterly delusional. YOU have evaded what I asked you.
      You really don't have a clue, do you?
      The audio equipment here is for reproducing audio faithfully. That is what hi-fi is all about. Faithful reproduction necessitates an even frequency response, low distortion, etc.
      Without those "numbers" (as you ignorantly call them), you will never be able to faithfully reproduce music or voice or instruments or any other kind of sounds. It will change the timbre, change the tonal balance, distort it, and so on.
      What you're basically saying is: screw quality of reproduction. Either you're listening with crappy $5 earbuds or with crazily expensive headphones that are shit technically or sound shit .. which you enjoy.
      That's fine, but why don't you go play with the other ignorant kids that also don't care and let the grown ups discuss things which you clearly don't understand?
