The Monster
Beats Audio Technica ATH-T500 is a pair of dynamic closed
headphones by Audio Technica. They are branded under the company's T-series
line. Still labeled as an audiophile headphone, I personally think that this is
the company's attempt to introduce affordable budget audiophile
headphones.FeaturesOne of the wonderful features of Audio Technica headphones is
the total absence of sliding headbands, which almost every other headphone brand
in the market is having now. Instead, they have two tubular structures to hold
the cups apart and a stretchable leather headband, which is located before the
tubular structures. This feature is dubbed the soft head support system. Well
thanks to the Audio Technica's Japanese innovation, there will no longer be a
problem of clipped hairs when wearing headphones. The convenience comes with a
price, which is the increased size of the headphones and the inability for it to
be stored flat. For people buying Solo
HD High Definition On-Ear Headphones(Graphite) a pair of headphones
for home usage, this will not be an issue. The cups are circumaural, which means
that they rest around the ear as opposed to on the ear. This makes them very
comfortable and perfect for hours of usage. Isolation on the ATH-T500 is great,
mostly due to the fact that they are circumaural and closed. The headphones have
a single sided cord, which is present in many dj headphones although these are
instead audiophile headphones. The cord is thick, stiff and of good quality and
is 3 m in length, a bit too long but the headphones were meant to be used
indoors anyway. The connecter is a 3.5 gold-plated plug and of course with any
audiophile headphone, a 6.3mm adaptor too.The headphones are made of black
plastic with a bit of metal used at the cups. The aluminum used at the cups is
supposed to help reduce vibration and produce better sound. They are lightweight
at only 270g and feel very much made of plastic, but holding them reassures you
that they are a pair of solid headphones. Wearing them for the first time, it
felt like they were too light to be on my head. I had to shake my head a few
times to make sure that they were secure and the soft head support system worked
perfectly, the headphone didn't even budge. The ear pads themselves are soft and
are covered in faux leather. Due to the material used on the ear pads, they feel
extremely comfortable but Monster
Beats Studio Ferrari Limited Edition Red can get hot on the ears
after an hour of usage.SoundFor the sound of these headphones, they are good at
reproducing mids. Vocals are exceptionally clear and they compliment the treble
very well. I was listening to Secret Garden with these headphones and I was like
"hell yeah, new age is great on these". However, here is a certain lack of
punchy bass with these headphones and my guess is that Audio Cheap Monster Beats
Technica aimed at making these headphones analytical and neutral. The sound has
less coloration compared to many other headphones available but they are not
laid back. The reason why I would not consider these headphones to have a laid
back sound is because the mids and highs really stand out and are quite
aggressive. This allows the listener to hear a fair amount of detail from these
headphones. Listening to cymbals, these headphones give a nice "ting" to each
hit. The soundstage is average as the mids and highs are slightly hard to
separate and the bass does not give you that nice thump. The bass is accurate
but in my honest opinion, a little extra coloration on the bass would really
make my day. An amp should sort that problem out.Lastly, driving the headphones
does not necessarily require an amp; it just depends where the source Solo
HD(PRODUCT) RED Special Edition High Definition On-Ear Headphones
is from. They will work fine with a computer / laptop, but are not advisable
with a portable mp3 device. Since this is not a portable headphone, it should
not be a problem as most buyers would use it for home usage, but if you still
would want to use it with an iPod, I suggest adding an amp and/or amp DAC combo
on your iPod. These good headphones can really suck the juice out of your
portable device. An amp will help improve the bass and the overall sound quality
of these headphones. Overall, they are a very affordable pair of audiophile
headphones with great comfort, a sturdy build and not to mention wonderful
detailed and neutral sound.
