Audio-Technica ATH-M50XWH Studijske slušalice

Studio-Grade Monitoring in a Clean White Finish

The Audio-Technica ATH-M50x WH studio monitor headphones bring the brand's most acclaimed M-Series sound to engineers who prefer a brighter aesthetic. Based on the original ATH-M50, this edition keeps the same 45 mm drivers, copper-clad aluminum wire voice coils, and circumaural closed-back design that made the line a studio standard.

Why the M50x Stays a Studio Standard

Three interchangeable detachable cables and 90° swiveling earcups set these cans apart from rivals in this tier. Proprietary 45 mm drivers pair rare-earth neodymium magnets with copper-clad aluminum wire voice coils for extended frequency response and deep, accurate bass. The collapsible frame folds flat, and circumaural earpads contour the ears for passive isolation.

Technical Specifications for Critical Listening

The numbers behind this model tell the story of a headphone engineered for accurate monitoring rather than boosted consumer sound. Low impedance and high sensitivity let the M50x run cleanly from laptops, audio interfaces, and phones, while the absence of a built-in microphone and active noise cancellation keeps the signal path focused on pure playback.

• Construction: Closed-back dynamic
• Driver: 45 mm with neodymium magnet and CCAW voice coil
• Frequency Response: 15 Hz – 28 kHz — extended range for full-spectrum monitoring
• Sensitivity / Impedance: 99 dB / 38 ohms — runs cleanly from laptops, interfaces, and phones without a dedicated amp
• Weight: 285 g without cable — light enough for long studio days
• Three detachable cables (1.2 m straight, 3 m straight, 1.2–3 m coiled) with gold-plated 3.5 mm connector and 6.3 mm screw-on adapter

Who Should Pick Up the ATH-M50x WH

The Audio-Technica ATH-M50x WH is the right choice for home studio producers, podcasters, and bedroom engineers who need accurate monitoring without flagship-tier pricing. DJs benefit from 90° swiveling earcups for one-ear cueing, while streamers gain closed-back isolation that prevents mic bleed. The white finish also suits creators who want gear that looks clean on camera. At this tier, the M50x remains one of the most recommended closed-back models for anyone stepping up from entry-level gear.

Audio-Technica's M-Series Legacy

Audio-Technica has been designing audio equipment in Japan for over 60 years, building a reputation among recording engineers and musicians worldwide. The M-Series line, launched in 2014 with the original ATH-M50x, became the brand's best-selling headphone family. This white colorway carries that lineage forward on a model praised for its coveted sonic signature.
