What are you using for headphones?
bose qc35 lol. Need to get some production headphones at some point
Dang, those are some nice headphones
Andrew Masters yeah i love them for listening, they're just not great for production. they're really comfy though!
I've had a large number of headphones and I think my favourites are definitely the Sennheiser HD6xx and the Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO. HD6xx for Mixing and DT770 for tracking. Got a pair of ATH-M50x but the pads and band let them down for my own use
dt 770 pro, comfortable good ref headphones
Great review!
Great video! Usually I don't like it when there's off-topic stuff in a video review and skip right to the important parts, but in this case it was somehow interesting enough to keep watching through.
Also got a big head and was mostly wondering about the wearing comfort between these two, so that was very insightful, thanks. :)
dope video man! love the vlog style
Thanks!
I've had a pair of Beyerdynamic DT770 M's for 5 or so years and I love them. To be fair I haven't tried TONS of others, but for what I have tried they're my favourite.
Thanks so much for the info. I'm in the market for a new pair of headphones.
Glad I could help!
Glad I caught this one before you added the link you're going to be pointing to :)
Haha it’s coming!
You deserve more subscribers.. Keep it up master andrew.
Thanks!
購入しました！オーディオテクニカ好きです。到着が楽しみです。
I always use Sennheiser open back headphones. I've had the HD 555, 558, and 598 model. They are incredibly comfortable and clear sounding. The only thing you have to be careful about is their lack of low end if you're making mixing decisions using them.
Also, they have a 1/4" inch jack, which I prefer because that's what my interface has. Saves me having to worry about faulty adapters.
Soft muffs are always the best 😏
I use the beyerdynamic dt770 80 ohm (179$)
I used to have the AT M70x and I loved them but they broke on me twice so I gave up on them.
I have dt650 pro seinesser vans semi open for reference which are super accurate for mixing
Beyerdynamic DT 770 are my favs right now
Sennheiser HD280 pro. I also have M50s but I much prefer the HD280. I honestly don’t know if one’s “flatter” or whatever but I know my 280s and I like how they sound and how they feel.
Cool I might pick those up. I use the m50x but the m60x seem really nice.
The 50's are more isolating imo, but I still really like the 60's.
GC or SamAsh?...Sweetwater, always. But GC if I’m in a pinch.
MundoTucan sweet water is great! Always speedy delivery.
Agreed, for me most of my purchases are in a pinch so I like to be able to go and get it right then and there.
American Music Supply first for me. Better payment plans.
Just tried these out in store yesterday...the 60s are well worth the upgrade / price difference. Were way more comfortable on my ears (even a lot of high end headphones will give me ear pain) compared to the 50s, and even though they're smaller they just fit a lot better and leak significantly less sound. Sound quality was definitely more robust and well rounded.
If I don't need to test anything, I prefer Amazon or Sweetwater with Amazon being the go-to. I get it the next day due to being a Prime member. Being a drummer, I LOATHE buying cables. I've been looking for new headphones like the $299 Blue Headphones because of their built and recommendation for Warren Huart.
I recently purchased a new headset (ATH-M50xBT) and noticed that it has a p65 (Proposition 65 Cancer and Reproductive harm) warning on the back of the box. I looked at several other Audio Technica headsets and many of them seemed to carry this warning. Is anyone familiar with this warning or why it would be listed on so many of the AT products? Should I send mine back? I got it at B&H. This warning label is located in the back of the box. Also did your box come with a plastic cover for the headphone box? Mine didn’t! Just a box
My preference between GC & Sam Ash really depends on the store. I have been to some GC’s that were great and some that were trash. Same goes for Sam Ash. So I think for me personally, it just depends on the store and location.
Unrelated side note: looks like you went to the Sam Ash in Goodlettsville (correct me if i’m wrong), but that stores drum department is a joke. They basically have no drum department lol.
True, Nelson’s all the way!
Ive been using focal spirit professionals for years. Also have you tried sonarworks reference 4 plugin? It makes headphones flat. Id highly recommend it. Would love your thoughts on it.
I have not! I don’t do any mixing on headphones, so it may not make sense for me but I think the work they’re doing is cool! Especially for home studios that have treatment issues.
Andrew Masters just try the demo of it i know youll be addicted! Would love to see you do a video on it.
My m50 sadly but the dust just a couple days ago after 4 years of loyalty. Can’t believe I’m grieving for a pair of headphones rn.
0:55 oh i see we’re having the same issue with this headband. What did you do or use for the old crumbly headband ?
Nice video, I’m in a similar situation with my old ath-m50, I need a new pair. I really like audio technica, and never thought about the m60. The fact it’s lighter could be very nice. But I was hesitating between this one and the beyer dt770... 🤔
I think I put gaff tape on the headband for a couple years, then eventually pulled it off. I’ve never used the Beyer!
@@AndrewMasters Oh yes, good idea, I'll try this ! Thanks 🙏
Are the M60x good for mixing and mastering?
Either one. Where I live there is literally just one tiny music store that has absolutely nothing.
I had a pair of original model ATH-M50s for 14 or 15 years. A few weeks ago, I stepped on them, and last week they broke (related? probably). So I borrowed my son's M50X's and unfortunately, they are not the same. The headband is narrower, the earcups aren't as comfortable, there is no soundstage is small, the mid-high bass and high treble is pronounced and the high mids and low and mid treble is reduced. The originals were definitely superior in virtually every way possible except the lack of a detachable cable.
Debating if I want to try the M60s, Shure SRH840 or SRH940s or maybe Beyerdynamic DT770 Pros. I'm largely leaning away from the DT770s because I hear the 80ohm or 250 ohm versions are superior to the 32 ohm version but right now I need a decent set that works on everything, so maybe later I'll pick up the 80 or 250 version.
what drum set do you have back of you? they look really nice!
‘65 slingerland studio king.
Have you heard of the Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO? Trying to decide between AT and the Beyerdynamic headphones
I have, I’ve used them and for whatever reason I don’t like them much. I remember them being comfortable but for whatever reason I wasn’t into them. However as I said, I really don’t use headphones that much.
The two things that look concerning about the M60's are 1. the exposed cables coming from the ear pieces and the durability of the connection between the headband and earpieces, that looks quite flimsy.
Is there a reason why your logo looks like a Freemason logo? As for music stores I'm in the UK and there is only 1 store HMV that sell Headphones and the only production ones are the Audio Technica M20,30,40,50,60 X range I'm not sure which to buy but I'm thinking 40 but is not because of budget however I do want value for My money.
I use 2 ATH-M50X...one white for me and one black for client. Makes me nervous sometimes as they dont always appreciate what they are listening thru. I use to give them some crappy old Sony cans I had but they obviously sounded different
I find that the M60x add a little color...just my thought
I agree with your wife. M60s got some extra squish.
haha yes, it's very nice.
GC or Sam Ash? Alto Music...
Hey man, so after this time that u have bought it, which one do u prefer?
I definitely prefer the m50s if I’m performing, but if I’m engineering I like the m60s
I like the Sony MDR 7509s but you can't buy them in the EU because they are too loud! I'm not even sure if they make them anymore...
From rainy & sunny Ireland! ☘️☮️🤘🏽🤠👍🏽☮️☘️
Turn it up to 11!
I like the Audio Techinca ATm-50s! Vic Firth headphones aren't bad either?! Evans UV2s are 2 ply Drumheads and they sound good 👍! BTW, what kind of drums do you have in your home studio? Thanks for sharing your videos!🤘😎
Thanks; it’s a ‘65 slingerland studio king kit. I have a few snares, mostly use a black beauty.
Just a btw, the M40s are significantly better for the price. I would have recommended them for you Vox recording
Sweetwater...Sam Ash if I need it now.
to be honest, why buy M50X at all? When I decided to buy a pair, i went in the store and ask for a M50-and an M40 and tested both of them. In the end I picked M40. very similar but M50x were actually hurting. The sound coming out from M50x was actually hurting my ears. That may be overlooked at 3$ headphones, maybe 5$ headphones if we are generous, but not 150$
I highly reccomend HD58x Jubilee and the M40x. They M40x sound BETTER than the M50x.
2:24: "I like fresh heads on drums, but I hate buying them...*winces*" omg...sticks, mic chords, guitar chords, headphones yes...
I feel that
Hire the guy that used the same set of headphones for 5 years but didn’t know what they were for consultation 😂
Not wearing a mask? Please Be safe
matthew wortley I don’t wear masks in my car, but in stores you have to.
