## Description

From the manufacturer

Review: Amazing headphones - Update - my main pair of headphones has finally seen its last day and here I am, as promised when I did this review, repurchasing these. I was secretly looking forward to mine failing I have to admit. Really comfortable to wear for long periods. The cord is a good length and they feel pretty robust and fairly light too. They fit well on different sized heads as you can easily adjust them and the sound quality is great too. I ended up returning them because I had lost my main pair and ended up locating them again so I no longer required these. However, if my main pair ever fails me this will be my go to for purchase again as I really enjoyed my time with them. There’s a lot of clarity in the sound which is exactly what I need when field recording. I also enjoyed the comfortability whilst recording for long sessions too. I’ve also had issues with headphones in the past always dropping off my head which is really frustrating. This wasn’t a problem with these at all. I’d highly recommend them and I’m sure I’ll be purchasing them again in the future once my current headphones fail eventually. I also think the price is really reasonable for these. What you get for the price is great.
Review: Great quality , for the price - Audio-Technica ATH-M20X Review (6 Months Later) After using the Audio-Technica ATH-M20X for six months, I can confidently say that this budget-friendly headphone has held up quite well. Whether you're using them for casual music listening, podcasts, or video calls, these headphones still manage to deliver solid performance at an affordable price. Here's my updated take after months of regular use. Design and Build Quality Six months in, the ATH-M20X still feels just as sturdy as it did when I first got them. The lightweight plastic build hasn't shown any signs of wear or damage. The adjustable headband is still smooth, and the ear cups remain comfortable, even during long listening sessions. I was initially concerned about the ear padding feeling too firm, but surprisingly, it's held up fine over time. It doesn't get too uncomfortable, though if you're used to very plush padding, you might still find them a bit stiff. The build overall is simple but durable. These headphones are easy to fold up and store, which has been great for travel. There’s no significant creaking or looseness in the joints after a few months of use, which shows that they’re well-built for the price. Sound Quality the sound quality of the ATH-M20X is still impressive for an entry-level headphone. The bass remains balanced—not too punchy, but present enough for most genres. If you're into bass-heavy music, like hip-hop or EDM, you might feel like you want more, but it’s not bad by any means. The mids and vocals are still clear, and the treble hasn’t become harsh or fatiguing. There’s a nice balance overall that works well for a variety of genres. I’ve used these for everything from casual listening to watching movies and gaming, and the audio performance holds up across all activities. I still don’t expect the level of soundstage and deep bass found in more expensive models like the ATH-M50X, but for general use, the M20X has been more than sufficient. Comfort and Fit Comfort-wise, these headphones have done well for long listening sessions. The ear cups still feel snug, and the headband adjusts easily to ensure a good fit. The ear padding has softened slightly, which makes them more comfortable now than when I first got them. I can easily wear these for a few hours without feeling much discomfort, though I wouldn’t say they’re as plush as higher-end headphones. If you have larger ears, you might still feel a bit cramped, but for me, they’ve been comfortable overall. Noise Isolation The passive noise isolation of the ATH-M20X continues to perform well. In quieter environments, they block out most background noise, which is great when I want to focus on music or a podcast. In louder places, like public transport or a noisy café, they do a decent job of cutting out ambient noise, but you can still hear some of the background sounds if the volume isn’t turned up. If you need active noise cancellation, you’ll have to look at pricier models, but for everyday use, the isolation on these is more than adequate. Durability The ATH-M20X has held up impressively well after six months of regular use. The cable hasn’t shown any signs of fraying or damage, despite daily use. I’ve also been able to pack them up and carry them around without worrying about breaking or bending them. They’ve been dropped a couple of times, and there are no visible cracks or loose parts. The plastic build remains solid, and there’s been no degradation in sound quality. One downside, however, is that the cable is still non-detachable, which means if something were to happen to it, you'd have to replace the entire set. That said, the cable itself has been sturdy enough that I haven’t encountered any issues. Pros: Great value: Still impressive sound quality for the price, offering a balanced and clear audio experience. Comfortable for long sessions: Ear padding has softened a bit, making them more comfortable over time. Sturdy build: No signs of wear and tear after six months of regular use. Good noise isolation: Still effective at blocking out background noise, particularly in quieter environments. Durable cable: The non-detachable cable is still in perfect condition after months of use. Cons: Lack of deep bass: The bass is balanced, but if you’re a basshead, you may find it underwhelming. Non-detachable cable: While durable, the inability to replace the cable could be a downside for some. Snug fit for larger ears: While comfortable for most, those with larger ears might find the ear cups a little tight after extended wear. Conclusion After six months of regular use, I’m still very pleased with the Audio-Technica ATH-M20X. For the price, they offer a great combination of clear sound, comfort, and durability. While they don’t have the deep bass or expansive soundstage of more premium models, they provide solid performance for casual listening, gaming, and even podcasts. If you're looking for affordable, reliable headphones that can handle daily use without breaking the bank, the ATH-M20X remains a fantastic choice. They’ve held up well and continue to be a great value after months of use.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these any good for listening to Heavy/Death Metal?**
A: Yes, I use an 8 string myself and it's absolutely perfect - I've tried very expensive cans from Ultrasone and Bose that do not measure up to the humble 20x - enjoy

**Q: How do these compare with the more pricey ath m50s?**
A: Well I have to be honest - the M50's are better. But these aren't bad, however they are not for portable use at all because of the massive wire. And the noise isolation works, but it's not stellar. However the headphones are a great all-rounder. Hope this helps.

**Q: What's the mid range like on these headphones - is it clear? I dislike phones that are bass heavy, and obviously don't want anything too tinny either.**
A: Hi - I Use these headphones in my home recoding studio. I bought one set was impressed so bought a second pair. In my view you could pay twice the price and not get as good a quality. They are rounded have a balanced frequency response and are robust but light in physical structure and Comfortable. I would recommend but if they did not suit- you haven't spent a fortune.Am

**Q: I think i have a large head.... are these adaptable for the 'larger noggin'?' previous at headphones (ath) were way too tight. ta.**
A: I think they will fit you, because they are very large headphones.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Sound Clarity
*by A***S on 23 December 2021*

The headphones have great clarity of sound and it is very easy to hear small details in music and other audio recordings. However it is worth noting that if blasting songs at a really high volume, these headphones are not for you as they're volume level is nothing to write home about. In terms of comfort they aren't the lightest headphones in the world and the ear cups do seal around your ear a little bit too tight but other than that they are comfortable headphones and could easily be worn seemlessly for a few hours without any discomfort. Another thing worth noting is that these are not gaming headphones and thus they're performance aren't as good as more specialised products. The intense bass found on most gaming headphones/headsets in order to bring more life into the audio environment in games such as gunshot sounds. These headphones are best kept for media consumption, however they can be used for gaming just like any pair of headphones or earphones. They do not have a microphone so that needs to be taken into consideration if you are purchasing them with the intention of using them as a gaming headset. In conclusion Positives: Build Quality Price to Performance Audio Clarity Comfort Negatives: Audio Level Flat Bass
