I just realized every MKBHD video title has an exclamation point at the end.
Half life 5 confirmed(!)
no not all
***** Triple E clan?
***** Nothing os top secret or else you wouldn't even mention it.
Other youtubers use capslock to get click, but exclamation points are his strategy
For $400, I better be able to hear clarification on what the fuck Young Thug saying...
lol I agree! I too never understand what the F he's saying in his rap songs. He sounds as if he has seen a ghost and trying to scream but the voice doesn't come out of his throat :P
😂😂😂😂😂 lmaoooooo
😂😂😂😂

rofl @ the beats by dre "frequency response"
Seeing that, my eyes went > O_O
Aniket Kapse I'm pretty sure that was just trolling. :P They aren't _that_ U-shaped.
Corinn Heathers If so, hats off to ***** for that xD
Aniket Kapse Actually, no. They are pretty U shaped. Of course, not as much as he shows in the video. Here's a link to their frequency response graphs.headphone.com/graphCompare.php?graphType=0&graphID[]=1383&scale=25
Matheus Braz That's awful. No wonder they sound like mud. :D
Is that beats by Dre or a quadratic function
The latter
+sib mackern lol
+THRESH X NEONZ haha, it destroys beats in every way shape and form.
Don't give me PTSD of those stupid things in Highschool, oh god
I laughed so hard at the Beats response curve D;
me too lol
Smiley Dr.
Dude I celebrate every time I get a notification that you uploaded a video
Same xD
My girlfriend privately messages me when MKBHD uploads a video....
Yeah I don't have a girlfriend :'(
yeah man. he is awesome.
Let's start up a cult
me too
seems like every time i watch your videos they get better just a little bit every time. i liked the way you edited this video, it wasn't completely different from the way you usually edit them, but you added a little more "spice" to it lol. i can tell that your videos always come out great cause of the hard work and effort you put into them, good job and i cant wait for more!
I love that you included the graph for the frequency response and the open-back headphone concept. Great work as always.
I don't even buy half the things that ***** reviews. I just really like your reviews
Haha me too.
Had never thought about that... The fact people tend to watch reviews couse they plan to buy the thing... I also just watch the videos for fun
me tooo
Loving the fact that you used the metric system for the cables. Keep them coming Marques!
Still love these old reviews
4:06 when you see your neighbor looking weird at you
I also have the FocusRite Scarlett 2i2 interface (though I'm having to work through some DPC Latency issues to use it full-time at the moment) - do you just use it for a DAC, or do you use it for mics as well? Every time I've seen you post anything with it in view, those XLR inputs are very lonely and empty.
***** hey marques do a review on linux ubuntu.
Justin Bowie Lol, there's nothing for him to "review" about Ubuntu. It's not a new product that he can just up and compare it to, and there's hundreds of videos and written posts out there to show you updates or tutorials already.
***** I use the 2i2 as a DAC as well, it's fantastic!
you should do a review on your MixPreD
Newbie here.. What is DAC ??
I really dig your videos man. They're honest, unbiased, educational, and you sound like you know your stuff. I rarely comment, thumbs up, or even subscribe on videos. But I like to give kudos where credits are due. Great work.
Your videos are just awesome! I love the design, the camera effects, just to cool! Keep in that way!
There's so much useful information in this video! So well thought out and put together as all your videos are, thank you!
Never usually leave CZcams comments, but god damn, the praise for Audio Technica on here blows my mind. Like just because you discovered there are better headphones than beats doesn't mean that this is the only option. There are far better headphones in the $400 dollar price range than the M70X. At that point you're competing with the Sennheiser HD 600, HD 650, AKG K712 Pro, etc., which all sound better. In addition, since the M50s moved well into the $170+ dollar range where they are absolutely bodied by the Sennheiser HD 598, the Beyerdynamic DT 770, DT 990, etc. At $110-$120, the M50s were a steal, but not so at the price they are now.
***** Who cares how the hell they look, they never leave the house, neither of them are fashion headphones.
ThePwnageMan01 Which one would you recommend dt 770 or dt 990 what is the diffrence?
Paul Simpson It's personal preference at that point. Read up on the differences: www.head-fi.org/t/513393/guide-sonic-differences-between-dt770-dt990-models-more
***** Then there are better options than the M50s, which aren't portable at all. The Sennheiser Momentums, the huge variety of great IEMs out there, hell, the Beats Solo 2s are supposedly not that bad.
The M50 haters are more annoying than their fanboys. Coming from a Fidelio X2 owner btw.
I like watching reviews of products that I can't afford or buy!
lol
Your videos are really polished. I appreciate the frequent uploads as well.
Your reviews are the best on CZcams. Thank you for such high quality content Marques.
Wow Marques! You keep getting better and better with your reviews! Keep up the good work man!
Good review. You hit all the major spots I covered on my video too. Glad I wasn't the only one.
Lol stop advertising
Reborns Gundam he made his video yesterday so it is relevant, and he never said "check out my review"
Your camera comparison video is bad....
Awesome vid mkbhd.. if i ever need tech advice or update i allways come here, thumbs up
Marques, I really appreciate the reviews of the M50, M50X and M70X by Audio Technica that you've provided over time. I wear hearing aids and was really curious about the comfort, fit, and sound quality of this brand of monitors. I purchased the M50X and I'm extremely pleased with their fit and how they are roomy enough to fit over my BTE hearing aids. Wonderful comfort and no feedback, which is a must when wearing hearing aids. I can't wait to road test these when I travel to China in November and since they collapse so nicely hopefully they're survive my trip. Your recommendations and comparisons are spot on for this brand of monitors. Keep up the great work and peace!
Buenisimo review. Tenemos que aprender muchas cosas de este chico en Audio46
JOJOOOO estas aqui tambien!! (sigo tu canal desde hace un tiempo, es buenisimo :D) pues es verdad lo que dices ^^, de hecho me compre estos audifonos ayer, estoy esperando a que lleguen :P espero subas nuevo video pronto!!
:؛و. ً. د: ؛. ًبلبز ،كما. :
Seguro que esa curva de respuesta de frecuencia no es un HD 600? Demasiado plano me parece a mi para el m70x 🤔.
Por lo que tengo entendido tienen una caida de ganancia sobre los 400 hz y un poco más arriba creo que en los 8 o 10 kHz más o menos.
'Dr. Dre reported this video'! Lol :P
***** just leaving a comment so I can check back if it was a joke or nahh
Thank you! I've been wanting to hear a good review on these since they were announced.
Actually ordered the M50X`s yesterday :D Thank you so much, your videos are epic!
to the bag: "It's free . . " (it's not like you pay 300€ for the headphones) -.-
Yeah, it does come with no extra charge, but they are in no way _free_.
But atleast they help choose us decide to buy better headsets :)
Buying a bag and it comes with headphones, best deal
why no vids lately? u were good, just keep uploading
haha
dat Beats freq response xD made my day! :P
great review, helped me a lot to come to my decission to buy them. Loved the frequency explanation!
Thanks marques. Your videos are really helpful
This is why ***** is the best tech reviewer on CZcams. We all know his affection of the m50's over the years, yet there was not even a bit of bias towards the m70's. It was a neutral review video, and he told all the points the way they are. Another awesome review man, keep up the incredible work!
Not really, I see your bias towards him very evidently though
The bias is that he is NOT reviewing other ones. There are plenty of great headphones for lower prices, which he is not even mentioning. He just compares it with a lower end, same brand.
We need to get *****'s name out there! Hands down for the best tech-reviewer in my opinion!
Alan Schamber you've got to remember that he's one person and can't review everything. it's his channel so he reviews what catches his eye.
Daniel Neo yeah, and audio technica happens to be the only brand of headphones, how interesting. Also no one wanted him to review everything
Lol the graph comparing beats to it 😂
Loved those graphs bro!
Knowledge is a pearl....👏👏
Awesome video marques! The overall quality of your videos is going up really fast!! I must say that I am very impressed.
Keep up your great vids marques! I love them :D
Fucking loving my Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro.
They've been making them for 30 years for a reason.
Becaus eof you, I got the amazing ATH-M40Xs, they are BEASTS
The graph was very informative! Thank you so much for that :D
Looking back 6 years later, I think you are the reason why the ATH-M50 got so popular among the casual and new aufio enjoyers.
Thank you Marques
can you do a comparison of the bose qc 35 and the audio technica m70x, I am wondering which one to get
how do you us your headphones? The M70Xs have a completely neutral response which means that music won't sound as good on them but it will sound as close to how it was made. For playing games, watching movies, listening to music and VR get the Sony WH-1000XM4s (as they are better than the QC 35s and the same price). For video editing, music editing and critical listening get the ATH-M70Xs
Marques, I have a special request to you, please don't ever, ever, stop reviewing gadgets. P.S.: Peace out
I have been waiting for this review as soon I as I saw your tweet with a pic of the m70x
Hey man, just wanna say thanks for helping me choose these headphones as my first "big" tech purchase! Your review helped me in choosing my first pair of high-end headphones.
As all ears are different and every one has different sound preferences, I preferred the much cheaper Marshall majors over the M50. My friend had the m50 (got stolen) and my Marshall headphones was for me almost identical sound quality but could go a lot louder as well.
I know you usually get a pair of headphones for the way they sound, but metal bands, at this price point, should be a must, in my opinion.
dude, you are good and honest, you care. Love ALL your reviews. Thanks for all your hard work.
I so like the way you edit your videos bro!
In the frequency response segment...
First line:
Wow, that's actually pretty flat...
Second line:
That's more expected...
Third line:
Jesus Christ, I don't know of any headphones that shit- Oh, OH OOOOOOH oh.... Beats... Yeah.
What the hell are you doing awake this late bro XD
David Jeffers
I actually woke up a few hours ago~
Obviously exaggerated for comedic effect. Ironically the harsh sounding m50's have some nearly the most recessed midrange I have ever heard.
Ron Paultard
The m50's are actually pretty flat, I've listened to quite a few more expensive monitors with a more wonky frequency response.
So, I'm not sure what you're talking about with the mids...
Dash Lambda
The lower mids seem seriously recessed to me, making vocals harsh sounding.
4:05
The _Oh shit, I'm still recording_ face.
Great Video Helped me in deciding which headphones to buy, nice work
Very informative. I like how u consider so many different kinds of technology;yet,you present it in a way that is interesting.
Draw a line across the top of the Beats frequency response, then add some tears and closed eyes and you have my reaction when I saw it.
the band holy fuck
When I first saw this video in my subscriptions, I got mad because I just got the M50x a month ago and thought that it was a waste of money since I could've gotten the m70x. But after watching the whole video, I'm glad I have the m50x because I use them for everyday activities like listening to music and watching videos, so I want that nice bass when it comes along. I now know that the M70x are for editing and neutral sounds, which I probably wouldn't like.
haha me toooo:)
superb review! thumbs up just for the frequency chat comparison
been waiting for this
4:51, Audiophiles burst out laughing!
YUP!
Got'em
Say what you want about beats but they sound good with the right type of music playing
@@FOTHER_MUCKER they sound good with almost any kind of music, but that's missing the point entirely. The complaints beats get are about them sounding inaccurate, not sounding bad. And they a terribly inaccurate, regardless of what music plays
@@GalvakzaMusic good/Bad is completely subjective. Some people love beats and bass, while others hate it. Bad and Good doesn't mean anything, except for accuracy
I've never died laughing at a frequency response chart xD I guess Beets by Drew are good for something after all
Very good review. I was wondering if the M70X were right for me and you have helped me decide. Thanks.
His video's are always so clean and nice
New to the channel. I enjoy listening how you speak. Subscribed.
m40x will always be the best
true, even sound is better because all the frequencies are equal, it doesn't have that stupid big bass thing, so the high and low frequencies sounds a lot better
Having a scoop in the freq response doesn't automatically mean that the treble and bass quality becomes worse, they're literally just louder.
+Ned H. exactly. an even sound is when they're all the same volume
Yeah even better than the m50s
The m40x is the best in the m-line of headphones.
Your content is great! Keep up the good work!
always nice to see a new pair of headphones
Marques lives in NYC there's construction down in his apartment, that's why starting from 5:40 there's a noise. I hate it too Marquess you aren't the only one haha.
I love your videos
thanks jrake
M40Xs is where it is at
Jonas Zapletal stfu
Yee
Yeet
Love your videos brobro
You're a legend man, i love your headphone videos
i am using Sennheiser HD 380 pro, as a monitor headphones and they are very good with price 120$!! Test some Sennheiser models please!!!
From about 5:40 on there is a strange noise :s
I'm getting it too.
i dont hear anything D: damn it beats
I think he is boiling water
Vincent Gagné I think some furniture is being drilled , whatsay ***** ?
Jesus So we're dropping brand names? Damn it KRKs...
I like these type of videos, I hope you do more reviews on headphones/earbuds.
I couldn't wait for these headphones to come out! And when they did, i couldn't wait for you to make a video on them! And here they all in all their glory!
How does it compare to the ath-msr7?
+1 for this request.
I know a lot of people hate beats and i did for the longest time but i decided to pick up a pair and damn... they improved a lot
Great review as usual dude. Keep up the good work. :)
Amazing quality videos. Thanks man for that!!!
The 50X's, which I have, look a lot better in my opinion and seeing how the sound isn't that much different from the 70X's makes it obvious I won't upgrade to these new headphones.
It's more of a side grade than an upgrade. They have a flatter sound which I guess I'm the odd one out for preferring flat sound, but these at more than double the price do not justify anything, other than the fact that audio technica realizes it has a brand name that it can take advantage of
Nobody should buy a headphone that sounds like the m50's, they're shit. Recessed mids, artificial treble, no soundstage.
Nordik I have both the M50X and the M70X and when I A/B them on the same music sources there are definite differences. The M70 has a much more noticeable soundstage, better overall tonal balance, where mid-bass frequencies come through in the mix, and a more tightly controlled and articulate bass. I play electric bass and my strings ring more accurately when I monitor them with the M70s, nearly as good as listening from my amp and the cab. I hear recording defects, like tape hiss, and cracks and pops on vinyl more noticeably on the M70s vs the M50Xs.
What was that little background noise that cut in around 5:30? anyone else hear that?
It sounds scary lol like someone breathing in but never exhaling. I can hear it with my ATH-M50x that MKB recommended. ;)
Angel M lol me too xD
Its the sound his furnace makes sometimes. :)
I remember from a Pocketnow interview a while back.
boiling water
that's him trying to find the headphone users.
Thank you for great quality content Mr Brownlee
Thank you, excellent and to the point review. I enjoy your reviews.

Ahmed Harbi Probably trolling...
illuminati?? you're bored man..
Nikola Elitsov *illuminatie
I love how the review of the m70's will further convince you to buy m50's. They are just too damn good
and how do you replace pads on m70 ? headphone is useless without replacements
Just bought the m50xbt2 and they're insane value.
Again a great review! Thanks dude!
thanks for your honest review.. im still using M50x until now..
People are reviewing $300 headphones and i'm sitting here with my broken $7 Panasonic in-ears :(
It's been 6 years, im curious on what audio collection you got now
m40x is the best
True
Nah. My original m50’s are great. Better than my dads old m40’s. However the m50x are a disappointment, seems like they’ve been hit by the magic beats by Dre wand. Completely bass dominant. And sadly that’s the m50’s people are getting today. The m40’s are good. But definitely wouldn’t say better than the original m50’s. I’ve just invested in some m70’s so am interested to hear what they sound like.
u explain really nicely...helped me a lot
Excellent review!
That Diagram comparison Beats got me laughin way too hard
Me too! All it lacked was a couple eye dots to make a smiley face! (should have had a $ for a nose, too)
can you review ATH-M40X ?
i just picked up the M20x's for my budget setup and these are amazing, im hoping to get the M50x's in a few years
I have a lot of work to do if I ever want to have my reviews be as good as this. Awesome video and keep up the awesome work.
Lost me at 300 bucks. I'll pay 80 and get the industry standard Sony MDR -V6
Or the AKG k240
Awesome. You just made me want to replace my M50s.
Hi Taylor! :D
You can send them to me if you replace them :)
Mine just broke......;(
Can I have them? PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF (insert idol you worship)! I NEED THEM!
***** Yet your video made it seem that they're not really worth upgrading from the M50's so I'm confused.
Try M-40X, same sound, lower price
Well done review!! Thanks!
Great review as always :D. Funny enough the very first video I saw from you was the 50 version of the headphones which was happy. But seeing this I think I'll get the 70 for more of videos works and other VA projects:)
the M70x's just don't seem worth it I think this is their attempt to compete in the "over priced" headphone market. I see this just further encourages people to buy the M50's at a lower price.
It is more to appeal to sound producers, not average day consumers
they aren't trying to beat the ATH-M50Xs they are competing with headphones like the Seinhiesser HD 600s and tbh they are doing a pretty good job. Although they are in the same line up they are not the same type of haedphones.
4:52 that surprised me,i thought it was showing different graph for both headphone but nope it was Beats graph ,I almost died choking from laughter
wow is that so lol you should keep that funeral plan in check then
great review
very informative introduction to the m70s!
