What Gadgets 360 Is Talking About Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT

Anyone who is familiar with headphones and audiophile-grade personal audio knows of the iconic status of the Audio-Technica ATH-M50 and M50x. These headphones are marketed as studio-focused professional monitor headphones, but have a cult following even among regular consumers for their open, clean sound and neutral sonic signature. However, the product is wired and in 2019, it feels rather dated.

Bluetooth technology today is significantly better than it was a few years ago, with improved connection stability and sound quality. This has led to calls for a wireless version of these headphones, and Audio-Technica has duly delivered. The company recently launched the Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT wireless headphones in India, and we've now had a chance to review this pair. Can it live up to the reputation set by its wired predecessors? Find out in our review.
