Incredibly lightweight, unbelievably big in sound and perfect for long-wearing comfort, the ATH-AD500X Audiophile Open-Air Headphones are a truly ground-breaking set of cans when it comes to open-air listening. With great reproduction of the higher end of the spectrum and an open, airy sound, you will be able to enjoy your music with a remarkable likeness to that of a live production. Huge Open Soundstage The ATH-AD500X bless your music with neutrality and a truly outstanding open feel, expanding the soundstage upwards as well as outwards, making you feel as if you are right inside a live environment. The open-air features provide you with a big and bright listening experience for your hi-fi home system like no other pair of headphones. Well Balanced Audio Using newly designed 53mm drivers, that are positioned to face the front, you will experience reproduced sound that is crystal clear with bass that sits perfectly amongst the mix. Treble flows smoothly and vocal projection is elevated to sparkling effect, whilst mid-range frequencies are well-balanced and rich in detail without becoming muffled in the mix. Unmatched Comfort Extremely light on the head (there are no pressure points here), the ATH-AD500X features soft fabric-lined pads that adjust to the shape and size of your head, sitting rigidly yet comfortably, giving you a long listening experience without the discomfort. Flexible Listening The exceptionally long cable allows you to freely move around your room when listening. Plug-in to your hi-fi system and rest on the couch at the opposite end of the room minus the unwanted scenario of tangled cables, that can potentially become damaged.
