These open back headphones are a great stepping stone into the world of audiophile gear. Just be careful with them as they put more resources into sound quality than build quality!

Dude, what the hell is wrong with the mic?
I've used these for 3 years and had no problems with durability. The cable is annoying the way it coils though. Phenomenal 3d sound in shooters and binaural videos. It's almost cheating, I can hear exactly where people are when they move.
Very good phones for the price. They can get loud on a variety of sources but only sound articulate when amped.
X2, paired with MT-602, level up.
I've been looking at these! Thanks for the review man. Very informative.
Glad you liked it! They really are some comfy headphones.
Marcus L. M. They are very comfortable, maybe the most comfortable headphone ever. Sound is very full, and soundstage is huge. They lack in detail in the treble. The bass is great but may feel slightly booming at higher volumes. Overall a great headphone, especially for the price.
70 bucks? That makes me feel so sad. In my country it is sold for an equivalent 269,00 USD.
Wow! That really sucks. Even with VAT that seems way over-priced.
Get someone in the US to buy them and ship them to you, and pay him what the shipping costs plus a little tip. That should be around 100$.
I really like the set that I have but I can’t say it so I’m wild about whatever material it is that they put on the earpiece it’s itchy but as far as the rest of it sound quality is great as I said, I like everything about it I do, however wish they would’ve made the cordin a little different matter but I can get by with it it’s far enough I can get it from my TV to my head so that’s all that really counts
Did you record the audio with a potato?
Yep, and the name of that potato is the Movo LV4 - czcams.com/video/1yU4CTrbFhY/video.html
Pile of garbage, but i didnt knw that when I bought it. Im going to replace it with a wireless one as soon as i can get the cash together.
hahahahaha
Should probably turn off auto-focus. Focus the shot beforehand.
Lock off that focus bro. Tip, shoot extra b-roll and stick that over the top of the out of focus bits.
Watching this while wearing the headphones
How did you manage to get such a stunning sound using professional equipment?
the wrong kind of stunning, sadly
lmao
Have had them for a short while. Classical music sounds mind blowing and music that plays well to the higher end of the sound spectrum will sound nice on these cans. But there is little bass. Rock sounds weak. Jazz is fine but I prefer my Jazz with more bass but Jazz sounds decent on these spacious sounding headphones.
what's could be the difference between those and 700x and 900x ? Sound is similar ? Thanks
So much audio equipment yet the microphone quality sucks.
This needs more views.
+Dark Angel Rafael I appreciate yours
Nice video...too bad about the mic...try a Beyerdynamic MCE 85...fantastic sound. The best thing about these headphones is the price for what you get for a darn good open back headset.
I love the headset and find it to be the most comfortable that I have. I have upgraded my mic to a pair of Behringer C-2's, which are working quite well. Just havent had much time for making content in the last few weeks. My last video (the one about adding o-rings to a mechanical keyboard) used my new mic setup.
Thanks for the video, pretty much what I needed to know. What about those superlux's you have there, what are your thoughts?
+It's just Me well, I made a video about that! czcams.com/video/E_v9tVhwWBo/video.html
Between the two the ATs are lighter and easier to wear for long periods. The Superlux are a bit brighter and clearer sounding and more durable feeling, but the smaller ear cups and tighter clamping force make them half-day headphones for me.
Which one's better? the Superlux HD668b or these Audio-Technica ATH AD500x?
did you have the answer😁
These are $88 right now, with case, on amazon. The 700x is $105. Whut would you do? Thanx!
+MRmoofoo2you when I did the video the difference was around $50. I'd jump on the 700x at that price.
i got these and i cant tell the difference between my sades A6 closed back headset audio quality vs. these. i’m really upset (although the comfort is 90000000x better so that’s a plus, but the 500x cost me $80 while my sades cost me $26 so idk). is it my motherboard holding back my AD500x???
Motherboard audio is almost universally trash. Get something with a better DAC (preferably external)
Taylord Tech do you have any DAC suggestions? i am using these for gaming and watching vids/shows/movies.
At the low end something like a Behringer UMC202HD or 204HD would work well. It's what I use and I like the audio quality. From there sky is the limit. A lot of people like the Schitt stack, I've not tried one though.
haha motherboard come on dude I power them with E17K and im in shock that open back got such bass and everything
Gave the video a like! I have had these exact headphones for just short of 2 years and I am upgrading now. (Ordered the very popular senheiser HD 598se)... I've just been looking around at different opinions and figured I would also take a look at what people are saying overall about these. That cable made me want to stab it btw... lol. My opinion is that these are good for exactly what they are... entry level solid headphones but definitely left me wanting more. In my opinion they actually aren't very comfortable though besides them being quite light. Specifically, the ear cuffs are kinda scratchy and hot. Wearing them for more than an hr or 2 is when I usually get discomfort in my experience and I am expecting the 598s to be WAY more comfortable.
Thanks for the like! I didnt have issues with the ear pads, but I have a beard so it probably kept the velvet off my face
great review with loads of details thanks, how would you compare these to the HD668b that you previously reviewed? I am after a large clear stage and many reviews say the 668's lack a bit of bass and can be bright on the trebles would you think the 500x's are worth the premium?
+porajase if you want a large soundstage the 500x's are going to be much better than the 668s. Nothing beats fully open back headphones for soundstage
good one,, have a great day
My Review would be: It's good... Buy it.
