I've owned a pair of Audio-Technica ATH-M20X for over 1 year and it's still my go to studio headphone. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who wants an excellent sound for the fraction of the price of pro headphones. Something I would love from them though is a removable cable as the headphone jack on mine has been damaged (my fault, not theirs) and sometimes takes some time to get a clear signal through. Apart from that tiny issue they're the best budget headphones out there in my opinion 👍
I also got them, and tested with both mobile phones/ laptop integrated DACs and external ones with Cirrus Logic and Realtek chips, and i found it having great performance in high, highest, mid, and the lowest frequencies!) The provide great details and a wide scene for like up to 6 - 8 different instruments all around it to be heard completely separately but like in right place. The only bad thind i found in them is the low ("bass") part of frequency, because it loses the control, reducing the amount of correctly listenable instruments to 3 - 4 in the opposite sides and it simply feels cheap and breaking(()(/ Awy, the sound is soooo goood, i just like them really much, but here is the thing they're not for the music i mostly like to listen *cry* *cry* .. . But the music production (not popular ones that is just a "bass" groove) and vocal/ record flaws listening and searching for - is possibly the best option for the money it asks))9
Big up for OneOdio - best pair of headphones I have owned, lasted around 3 years of heavy (5-10hr daily, rain sweat or shine). Best sound I've heard from anything under 100$, at least in mid-late 2010s when I was shopping for them. What finally killed them was connection issues between the aux and the inside of the headphones, first the large jack died , then about 6mo later the normal aux began failing as well. Gonna try to fix it but at 30 i suspect ill just buy another.
@@EdwardSmithMusic I do feel obligated to mention reports of dimished quality issues i see people talking about here. just ordered a new pair ill probably update this thread at some point if they are poor quality
Just received a new pair of these headphones, from same seller/item page on amazon. They have changed ergonomically from the pair I bought in 2018. They fit much more tightly on my head, and require me to extend the arms on both sides to near maximum length to wear properly, and even still feel a bit tighter than I would prefer. I did not need to extend the arms on my first pair unless I was fitting them over a hat/shirt I was wearing underneath them. I suspect the tightness will subside with use, but they definitely seem less comfortable overall. Sound quality has also changed somewhat, the low end (bass) has become more pronounced, The mids and lows are still there, but the balance has shifted slightly from where it should be, in my opinion. They are new, and will require awhile to truly break in, but I suspect even after they are broken in, they will be slightly less good for audio engineering than the 2018 pair was. With that said, they still sound incredibly good even fresh out of the box, and for 30$ I have no buyers remorse. Only time will tell if they are as durable as my last pair proved to be, but nothing design wise strikes me as being lower quality so I suspect they will last awhile. I would still highly recommend these to anyone on the fence.
@@ProjektAMusic the current one odio headphones are balanced slightly in favor of bass. Also the both tthe large jack/cable and the standard jack/cable that came with the new pair I purchased last month are both starting to have issues, the large jack is already unusable unless I can rewire it. The headphones themselves are holding up well, but they too seem a bit smaller, and perhaps lower quality than my original pair. All in all, it was still a fantastic value for 30$, and they do sound very good still, but with the balance not being as true I hesitate to recommend it if the focus is on production first. I do use mine to produce still, and they are great for listening to music and playing games, but I would consider purchasing the audio technica for the truer sound. if you are going to be doing a fair amount gaming or listening to music with them I think overall I still would lean toward the one odio. I dont know what the deal is with the aux cords this time around, but they dont look or feel any cheaper than my original ones that lasted 3 years along with the headphones. but just beware that it is possible that the aux cords may need to be upgraded if you do decide to buy them
i really just want to say thank you because ive had broken headphones and been looking for better ones that will last me more than like 1month and ive benn using the COWIN E7 and they are just some of the best headphones ive seen ir heard
I just got a pair of the oneodio and I agree with you. Not good for my digital piano. Mid and Highs sound good but bass sounds completely artificial. Going to try the audio-técnica. Great review!
My dad got me the Cowin E7 headphones and i loved them for about 3 years before the thing that stopped the right earmuff broke and it got twisted too far causing them to die. Would buy again.
This is list is great for close backs, but if you are looking to get headphones for streaming, i recommend the Superlux HD668B/Samson SR850. They are open back, so they are optimized for quieter rooms. Due to being open backs, they sound better and are easier to wear for longer.
This was a really nice video. I'm a bit of an audiophile in training, and I've been wanting to get good audio equipment for a while, but college isn't kind to my wallet, so this helped me decide on a good, cheap pair of headphones. i went for the OneOdio's as they are in my price range and they apparently have good sound quality.

@@crlitoh since they don't isolate, if you were to monitor with them, the playback would get picked up on the mic. I recommend putting ear muffs or another headphone on over them so that they can isolate, you could also put your hands over the driver to isolate them.

I used the Tascam TH02 for 4 months. Not bad for sound. After 4 months, the cable went bad. Repairing these cables is very very hard to do. The cable is always the weak spot for budget headphones. From now on, my headphones will be detachable. If cable goes bad, just replace the cable.

If you don't mind sacrificing noise isolation and a bit of an extension where the cable becomes detachable, I'd recommend the KPH40's with an EAPO EQ to neutral (I can share with you my EQ for them). They hit WAY above their price point, look at reviews for them if you don't believe me, they're not the normal kind of reviews you see like every other headphone. for my money, they're the best $40 you can spend on audio gear.

Thank you soooo much for this review. I'm on my journey to get back into streaming and I'm upgrading from a crappy headset and ps4 stream, to a slightly more professional pc setup on a budget. I'm going to buy the OneOdio headset since I need comfy headphones for long streaming sessions with decent sound quality. I loooove that there are two cable options that you can switch out and replace if needed. And the fact that they come in 3 different colors is an amazing bonus (im going for pink

I just got the OneOdio for my home studio. So far, they sound and feel great. I use mostly for guitar mixing, and the Low end and high end have a powerful, but balanced response. It's worth it in my opinion. Especially for the price!
Hi Edward?so Audio Technica m20x is the best cause I was trying to look for a studio headphones and I was on a budget,so thanks the video helped me alot
I would NEVER recommend cheap Audio technica's. I'd recommend AKG 361 instead they, have a more balanced and energetic sound and measure competitively for the price and Sennheiser 280 Pros for a more analytical flat sound more true to life and KPH40 (which I passionately recommend) for reference Headphones that could legitimately be your last headphone.

I bought some oneodio pro-50s like 2 years back. very good headphones and i got them for like 35. and now i bought oneodio a30-s and they are one of the best headphones ive tried that cost like 50. definetly recommend! I even make music with them it's great.

Hey ! Im looking for a good headset to play and record guitar, mostly in lower tunings (b standard and drop c), i have around 60€ to spend, which one would you recommend ? Thanks for the video :D
No mention of the Koss KHP-30i? In my opinion, far superior to any of these shown for the price, just add the grado pads for $10 and for about $40, not much touches them until you get to about the $150 price point.
@@r.7530 Yeah, they're 15 to 20 each with the exception of the ur40 and PortaPro being 30-40$. Fairly cheap stuff, they all use the same driver so my recommendation would vary based on which sound signature you prefer, PortaPro and Kph for a warmer sound, Ksc75 for treble-y stuff, ur40 kinda sits in no man's land tho. Would be my last pick.
@@mashpotatosauce3566 If you want headphones that give you a flat guitar sound, go on eBay, and get a pair of Pioneer SE-20A headphones. Be warned, they use a 1/4 inch jack
I have th OneOdio & agree w/everything you said. Th build is their Achilles heel, th plastic swivels that allow them to fold out broke on mine in just a few months. Be very careful w/these especially when putting them on. I have Cowin E7pro's also & agree 100% w/ what you said about them also😅 Th thing is when I got them, I thought something was wrong them, all deep, thick, murky bass & no mids & highs were muffled. I downloaded equalizer/Amp off Google play & fixed all their quirks instantly. Th only thing I would add is that th E7pros are heavy. I hav a bad neck from car/motorcycle wrecks & it took me a long time to get used to them. If a person is really frail they may be a bit too much, especially for extended listening. They're durable af though, I've probably dropped them 80-100× on carpeted floor b/c I doze off wearing them in bed😅. Just my experiences to share. Good vid, thanks man.👌🍻

@@gizzy2403 well KPH40's came out 2 months ago and their other headphones before them were still competitive with $200+ gear. But yeah a lot of bad audio information online so you gotta dig deeper for the people who are actually passionate about a topic. Even legendary music artists listened to terrible audio gear, its saddens me really because music is SO beautiful.
i own those Oneodio headphones but i had the Pro Dj edition Those cost me like 50bucks and they have a problem they always broke fast cuz those links they have that makes them rotate 160d r really weak
not sure what happened but I had a pair of the OneOdio and they were not only VERY uncomfortable with most clamping force than I have ever felt .... also i love my music and EQ my headphones/earbuds but i like some cheaper $10 to $20 Sonys ... .even UNEQ'ed those blew the OneOdio's away. One mention (I forgot the other model/company but they look like the ones I am about to mention ... somewhat anyway) I'd like to say are the Samson SR850's ... the soundstage is GREAT and the only issue I have are the bass is lacking .. though when (as a test) when i added more bass in the EQ the overall balance went down ... so if i am wanting to listen to something with "good thumping bass" ... I'd reach for something other than the Samson ... ANYTHING else ... the Samsons SR 850's are a go-to for me ... the seperation and sound stage some people rave about with these ... .I can confirm it's that good
Nice video i really appreciate your work on this video also i came across your channel at random. I found a good pair of headphones at a low discounted price 40€ * Marshall major 3 do u recommend these or the x20x one's ?
Thanks for dropping by! I haven't really used Marshall headphones before, so I would be able to give you a true opinion... but I can say the ATH-M20X from Audio Technical are quality for the price!
@@EdwardSmithMusic yeah but Marshall headphones usually cost 80€ Even though M20x have slightly better audio quality i would prefer Marshall major 3 because they are more portable
Same as making any music. Something flat that gives you an accurate perception of how your music sounds. Otherwise youl render your music thinking it sounds great and release it that way.

Can someone please recommend me a pair that won't leak noise but that still feel very airy when listening to them? So basically closed back that are as close to open back headphones feel.. I want a natural sound but not too flat that I don't enjoy playing the piano.. I've heard some headphones have an issue with "string residence" sound. Any recommendations for headphones under $200 ?
well if you're able to squeeze an extra $5 the KPH40's are the best headphone you can get under $500 for not only using as a reference headphone (Neutral Sound Signature) but enjoyment equivalent to endgame audio gear that could legitimately be your last headphone.

I chose the OneOdio's and thankfully theyve been holding up well in both sound and build quality.
STOP I don't recommend any of these headphones. instead I recommend AKG 361 Studio monitors (I don't recommend anything cheaper than this) for their balanced and energetic sound, measure reasonably well especially for the price and have very high passive noise reduction
May i know in all of those headsets which one is best of the best you think better in all aspects?? Plzzz answer it, he just reviews one by one but i don't think he said what he likes the most.
I do love the Audio technica & Cowins Bcz i play games and do content. Which one to them are Best to use?? I kinda want Audio technica in looks but Cowins seems old fashon Beats style headphones idk what to pick right now.

Bought OneOdio about one or two years ago... Nice looking, balanced sound, but the bass is not so strong... It didnt please me at all, compared to my old HDJ 1000 headphones. I think it is only worth if you are jusr a listener... Im thinking of buying a MTH 30X by Audio Technica, just dont know if it will be cool for house mixing.
Hello, I want some headband headphones that give me good sound with little volume on my cell phone, I want a V sound that is natural and pleasant. I want the bass to be deep and smooth and more present than the other frequencies, the mids to be lowered but still audible, the high mids to be lowered more than all frequencies, and the treble to be a little above means but that are sweet and pleasant. Of the hearing aids that you know, which one is closest to the sound I am looking for? Sorry if you don't understand, I don't speak English
I'm looking for a new pair of cans as I recently got a new keyboard and it only accepts the chonky jack. (And the fact my current ones are being held together by duck tape lmao) Gonna go for Oneodio as it got the detachabe cable.

Thank you soooo much for this review. I'm on my journey to get back into streaming and I'm upgrading from a crappy headset and ps4 stream, to a slightly more professional pc setup on a budget. I'm going to buy the OneOdio headset since I need comfy headphones for long streaming sessions with decent sound quality. I loooove that there are two cable options that you can switch out and replace if needed. And the fact that they come in 3 different colors is an amazing bonus (im going for pink

@@SomberShroud lol too late, already made my purchase. I’ve been thoroughly enjoying the OneOdio headphones. But I’ll keep the kph40s in mind, I might buy those too! Thanks for the recommendation anyways!
Don't buy the oneodio headphones . the bass in those headphones r weak. DON'T BUY THEM PLEASE.
is that a lie? cause all of the reviews I've seen said that the bass were decent or great.
@@zeby5010 compared to other headphones i used nah

@@kyngomade the bass is fine what are you talking about 😂
I quite like them. They get a bit uncomfortable after an hour but sound is ok. It's not for bass heads but it's good enough.
Thanks for the vid, always great hearing perspective from an actual person.
Thanks for watching!!
I just got the OneOdio for my home studio. So far, they sound and feel great. I use mostly for guitar mixing, and the Low end and high end have a powerful, but balanced response. It's worth it in my opinion. Especially for the price!
are they still good?
@@lucidsoapy still using them. They sound great and they are comfortable 👍
@@luigizanellato2959 ok thank you so much!!
low quality plastic not screwded on right
Hey buddy. How do they sound with metal music?
Thanks I was looking at the cheaper pair and I’m glad you cleared it up
Glad I could help!
@@EdwardSmithMusic I actually just purchased the oneodio
I use audiotechniaca m20x, and this is so comfortable and nice for music production
They are so good for under $50 I agree!!
Wish I went for them instead Cowin.
What cables do you need?
Hi Edward?so Audio Technica m20x is the best cause I was trying to look for a studio headphones and I was on a budget,so thanks the video helped me alot
Yes, they are the best for music production under $50!!
I would NEVER recommend cheap Audio technica's. I'd recommend AKG 361 instead they, have a more balanced and energetic sound and measure competitively for the price and Sennheiser 280 Pros for a more analytical flat sound more true to life and KPH40 (which I passionately recommend) for reference Headphones that could legitimately be your last headphone. (I've spent $7000+ on audio gear and I use KPH40's as my daily driver)
I bought some oneodio pro-50s like 2 years back. very good headphones and i got them for like 35. and now i bought oneodio a30-s and they are one of the best headphones ive tried that cost like 50. definetly recommend! I even make music with them it's great.
I have no faith that Oneodio is competitive to the market as I don't hear anything positive from the audiophile community. Instead I passionately recommend the KPH40.

@@SomberShroud yea I got to agree with you a bit. I still think oneodios are fine but yea would recommend them for casual listeing more. Having now tried some more headphones and bought a30-s i cN say these are way better for music production.
Thanks! Went with the OneOdio!
Great video Ed. Actually have the Tascam headphones Love them. Congrats on the 60k Subscribers milestone!👏🏽🔥
Awesome! Thank you!

What would you choose for record music and few gaming?? For me the confort of the headshet is very important
I would go with the Audio-Technica M20X - amzn.to/3lxTm3i
@@EdwardSmithMusic thanks for the quick answer. great video
Which would you say is best for mostly gaming and a little music?
The Cowins are too bomb for me... the one product I trust though, had to be the Audio-Technica ATH-M20X
Hey ! Im looking for a good headset to play and record guitar, mostly in lower tunings (b standard and drop c), i have around 60€ to spend, which one would you recommend ?
Thanks for the video :D
I would go for the Audio Technica M20X - amzn.to/2O5WMxW
@@EdwardSmithMusic alright ! Im gonna check it out thanks a lot !
No mention of the Koss KHP-30i? In my opinion, far superior to any of these shown for the price, just add the grado pads for $10 and for about $40, not much touches them until you get to about the $150 price point.
Honestly any of the koss memes (ksc75, portapro, kph30i, ur40, ktxpro1) would beat out all of these sound wise.
Koss are awesome
@@voidzy8738 have you tried all of the mentioned headphones??
@@r.7530 Yeah, they're 15 to 20 each with the exception of the ur40 and PortaPro being 30-40$. Fairly cheap stuff, they all use the same driver so my recommendation would vary based on which sound signature you prefer, PortaPro and Kph for a warmer sound, Ksc75 for treble-y stuff, ur40 kinda sits in no man's land tho. Would be my last pick.
LOL
what would be a good option for streaming edit: I did some research on the cowin and copped it today I feel comfortable with the results
The ATH-M20X
What should I buy if I’m a metal musician? I want my guitar tone to sound good and not canned or get a “under a pillow” effect.
I would go with the Audio Technica ATH-M20X - amzn.to/39ZINkj
@@EdwardSmithMusic ok thanks!
Really you want something that sounds flat to give you a more accurate perception of how your guitar sounds.
@@mashpotatosauce3566 If you want headphones that give you a flat guitar sound, go on eBay, and get a pair of Pioneer SE-20A headphones. Be warned, they use a 1/4 inch jack
I have th OneOdio & agree w/everything you said. Th build is their Achilles heel, th plastic swivels that allow them to fold out broke on mine in just a few months. Be very careful w/these especially when putting them on. I have Cowin E7pro's also & agree 100% w/ what you said about them also😅 Th thing is when I got them, I thought something was wrong them, all deep, thick, murky bass & no mids & highs were muffled. I downloaded equalizer/Amp off Google play & fixed all their quirks instantly. Th only thing I would add is that th E7pros are heavy. I hav a bad neck from car/motorcycle wrecks & it took me a long time to get used to them. If a person is really frail they may be a bit too much, especially for extended listening. They're durable af though, I've probably dropped them 80-100× on carpeted floor b/c I doze off wearing them in bed😅. Just my experiences to share. Good vid, thanks man.👌🍻
Man I don't recommend any of these headphones. instead I passionately recommend the KPH40. KPH40 are the best Headphone you can get under $50 for not only reference Headphones (Neutral Sound Signature) but enjoyment equivalent to endgame audio gear that could legitimately be your last headphone. (I've spent $7000+ on audio gear and I use KPH40's as my daily driver)
@@SomberShroud if I had known about that brand then it would've saved me a lot of $ & problems
@@gizzy2403 well KPH40's came out 2 months ago and their other headphones before them were still competitive with $200+ gear. But yeah a lot of bad audio information online so you gotta dig deeper for the people who are actually passionate about a topic. Even legendary music artists listened to terrible audio gear, its saddens me really because music is SO beautiful.
i own those Oneodio headphones but i had the Pro Dj edition Those cost me like 50bucks and they have a problem they always broke fast cuz those links they have that makes them rotate 160d r really weak
not sure what happened but I had a pair of the OneOdio and they were not only VERY uncomfortable with most clamping force than I have ever felt .... also i love my music and EQ my headphones/earbuds but i like some cheaper $10 to $20 Sonys ... .even UNEQ'ed those blew the OneOdio's away.
One mention (I forgot the other model/company but they look like the ones I am about to mention ... somewhat anyway) I'd like to say are the Samson SR850's ... the soundstage is GREAT and the only issue I have are the bass is lacking .. though when (as a test) when i added more bass in the EQ the overall balance went down ... so if i am wanting to listen to something with "good thumping bass" ... I'd reach for something other than the Samson ... ANYTHING else ... the Samsons SR 850's are a go-to for me ... the seperation and sound stage some people rave about with these ... .I can confirm it's that good
to be the sound of my OneOdio's sounded REALLY muddy .... I wonder if i got a knock-off pair
Nice video i really appreciate your work on this video also i came across your channel at random.
I found a good pair of headphones at a low discounted price 40€ * Marshall major 3 do u recommend these or the x20x one's ?
Thanks for dropping by! I haven't really used Marshall headphones before, so I would be able to give you a true opinion... but I can say the ATH-M20X from Audio Technical are quality for the price!
@@EdwardSmithMusic yeah but Marshall headphones usually cost 80€
Even though M20x have slightly better audio quality i would prefer Marshall major 3 because they are more portable
What would you choose for heavy metal?
Same as making any music. Something flat that gives you an accurate perception of how your music sounds. Otherwise youl render your music thinking it sounds great and release it that way.
Thanks for this video!!
It will help me a lot.
Glad to hear that!
Fantastic reviews as always
I appreciate that! Thank you!!
Hello thanks for the review I am looking for wireless R F headphones for my studio can you recommend any without blowing the budget ? Thanks for your reply
shout out for Cowin, damn fine headphones!!
Great video! Between the Akg's and Audio Technicas, which is better? I listen to anything, but don't want a bass heavy headphones.
I m late but if you like bass frequency or a strong grip on your head do not buy the akg, is the only lack they have
@@loryt690 oh tysm! i didn’t buy it, got some sony bluetooth headphones to get me going for the time being until i save for a better quality one. i prefer the weak bass cause it gibes me headaches after a while haha
Just bought msyelf the Cowin thanks to this vid, thanks 👏🏾
Hope you enjoy it! Glad I could help!
Suscribed! A real useful video, greetings.
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
sick intro
Thank you so much!!
What would you recommend buying. The oneodio or the audiotechnica? In all aspect.
Hey thanks for the great recommendation! I'm looking to get headphones for the korg sv2. It's an electric piano/rhodes. Can someone please recommend me a pair that won't leak noise but that still feel very airy when listening to them? So basically closed back that are as close to open back headphones feel.. I want a natural sound but not too flat that I don't enjoy playing the piano.. I've heard some headphones have an issue with "string residence" sound. Any recommendations for headphones under $200 ?
You r the only reviewer who said akg k52 are crappy product.
Awesome video! What headphones would you recommend for classical music? (: My budget would be around 60$ (:
I would go with the Audio Technica ATH-M20X… link in description
Can you do a wireless budget headphone video as well? Great content btw 👍!!!
I'll see what I can do!
Wht do think is the best headphones among them all for guitar ( distortion) playing???
Can you suggest me a good pair of headphones which is under $35. I have to use it with my synthesizer workstation (Yamaha MODX).
well if you're able to squeeze an extra $5 the KPH40's are the best headphone you can get under $500 for not only using as a reference headphone (Neutral Sound Signature) but enjoyment equivalent to endgame audio gear that could legitimately be your last headphone. (I've spent $7000+ on audio gear and I use KPH40's as my daily driver)
Why would you recommend noise-cancelling headphones for music production?
Thank you for this video. If I understood you correctly the AT Headphones while maybe not the most comfy do provide a Flat Frequency Response good for music production. I am a singer and am looking for headphones that tell me the true story when I am mixing everything down. Sounds like for the price, those are the ones. Thanks again.
Which one to use to be very loud,hard bass and with good sound quality in general? Just for listening to the music everyday.....
Would love to see a review of the best Blue Tooth headphones under $50. Sorry if I missed one before
Brother, Is AKG K72 is good for music production and for mixing and mastering, as I am buying my first studio headphones....So should I buy it ??????
Please reply.. !!!!!!!
Nahhh! Rather go with the Audio Technica ATH-M20X
I need a headset that works for gaming and content creation so it can go well with my fifine 669B. Wich one do u recomend
I've got a pair of akg k72 and they sound ok to me

The best are AKG K72 for studio music production.
Excellent review
Thanks so much!! 🙏🏻
which one is the best for music listening?
Are ath m20x good for casual music listening because I want a good headphone for enjoying music like pop and instrumental or classical
I think they are good for those purposes 💪🏻
@@EdwardSmithMusic thanks man appreciate your afforts 💪💪
Just a side note i have no idea what you mean about by now i should understand why they come with no additional accessories this is the first video I'm looking into this man if you haven't already i would keep in mind some of your viewers may not have heard of or know the brands as well as you do
i have the audio-technical and they are really good in my opinion but then again they are the only pair of gaming headphones i’ve had
For mixing and mastering
Whichone should I take????
Please help!!
What would you recommend for a DJ? The OneOdio seem like the best bet imo. Also, do you need to charge the Cowins if you use the cable?
The one odios aren’t a bad option to go for 😎
the OneOdio's have very nice audio but are very flimsy where the ear to ear connection breaks easily
Hd 25 go duh...
@@object1418 you know the whole point of the video was headphons * under * 50? HD25's are easliy double to triple that, sometimes even 4x. I wouldve gone for HD25's but my budget at the time didnt allow for it as I was and still am expanding my DJ setup. I chose the OneOdio's and thankfully theyve been holding up well in both sound and build quality.
STOP I don't recommend any of these headphones. instead I recommend AKG 361 Studio monitors (I don't recommend anything cheaper than this) for their balanced and energetic sound, measure reasonably well especially for the price and have very high passive noise reduction
Audio Technica for gaming?
As i really like the design and do game a bit as well
Yeah, I think so 💪🏻
@@EdwardSmithMusic that was quick. Thanks 👍
Which would be the best overall headphones for daily use ?

Which headphones do you Rec for music listening, just music
Question: do all of those headphones have a microphone
What is the difference between the Audio Technica M20x and 30x???
I had senhisser hd206. Didn't like them. Now I looking for new headphones for just practicing my piano. Maybe near $80
Please suggest 🙏
May i know in all of those headsets which one is best of the best you think better in all aspects??
Plzzz answer it, he just reviews one by one but i don't think he said what he likes the most.
I do love the Audio technica & Cowins
Bcz i play games and do content.
Which one to them are Best to use??
I kinda want Audio technica in looks but Cowins seems old fashon Beats style headphones idk what to pick right now.
Status Audio CB-1 for sure. They are now $59 but routinely go on sale for as low as $39.
Theres an obscure gem of a headphone I keep recommending to everyone. I passionately recommend the KPH40.

why did he take the links of the headphones off the description
They still there??

Is Edifier W820BT good for generally listening to music?
Can you tell me the diameter of the earcups, both outer rim and interior ear space, for the Cowin and Audio Technica, please? Also the height from earcup to headband? I've had trouble finding over-the-ears that don't rest below my ears even at their smallest closure, and I can't find these measurements anywhere online. Thanks!
My Cowins is just fell apart. Literally they just snapped at the swivel. Tried fixing it, but it broke again and I am not hard on them.
which one would you people recommend for movies and also what do think about jbl tune 710bt. pls someone help i am so confused
I would get apple airpods. They have a extremely insane sound barrier and nice sound.
is it better to go with akg k72 or ath m20x? Thanks
neither instead I passionately recommend the KPH40.

Do the Cowin Headphones operate both from Blue Tooth and wired?
Yes, they do!!
Which is good for music ?
Ath-m20x 💪🏻
Bought OneOdio about one or two years ago...
Nice looking, balanced sound, but the bass is not so strong... It didnt please me at all, compared to my old HDJ 1000 headphones.
I think it is only worth if you are jusr a listener...
Im thinking of buying a MTH 30X by Audio Technica, just dont know if it will be cool for house mixing.
How were they?
Hello, I want some headband headphones that give me good sound with little volume on my cell phone, I want a V sound that is natural and pleasant. I want the bass to be deep and smooth and more present than the other frequencies, the mids to be lowered but still audible, the high mids to be lowered more than all frequencies, and the treble to be a little above means but that are sweet and pleasant. Of the hearing aids that you know, which one is closest to the sound I am looking for? Sorry if you don't understand, I don't speak English
I'm looking for a new pair of cans as I recently got a new keyboard and it only accepts the chonky jack. (And the fact my current ones are being held together by duck tape lmao)
Gonna go for Oneodio as it got the detachabe cable.
Akg 72 is like 35 dollars in india but the m20x is like 60 dollars so is the m20x still worth more or??
I don't really like the AKG headphones.
m20x is worthit
Hello, e7 pro vs e8 which one thanks
What about superlux HD 681? They are much better than audio technica ath-m20x
None of your links work which is not helpful so can't get the exact model number. Perhaps improve your description next time. All cowens showing are $150 + online
