I have to say I kind of get why the ATH-M50 has become very popular - and it's that sound signature. With the treble and bass boost, it is more overtly incisive and fun to listen to. And it's judged well - not excessively overdone in the trebles like the Triport AE2 for example, and the bass...

I don't have all that much experience in high-end headphones, but these are the best I've ever heard. You can easily tell the goal with these is to reproduce the music as exact as possible. Most people do say they take a decent amount of break-in time to sound up to their standards, and...

These headphones are incredible. Fantastic sound quality. The bass response is really, really nice. It's well defined, accurate and strong, but it's not overpowering. The mids and highs are awesome too. Very crisp and I heard things in my music that I haven't heard with my other headphones. As...
