Audio-Technica ATH-R70xa
A 199-gram open-back that mixers trust and measurement rigs agree on — until the conversation turns to the headband, the seal, and whether its treble is bright or dark.

Audio-Technica ATH-R70x
Everyone agrees on the imaging and the feather weight; ten measurement rigs agree on the 4 kHz dip — and from there the arguments start.

Audio-Technica ATH-M70x
Sold as the flat one. Owners agree; every test rig disagrees.

Audio-Technica ATH-R50x
The $169 open-back that half its reviewers call dead neutral and the measurements call gently V-shaped.

Audio-Technica ATH-AD700X
The cult 'gaming' open-back — a huge, airy stage and no bass — that half the room calls a legend and half calls an urban legend.
