Product Overview
The Audio-Technica ATH-R50x is a professional open-back reference headphone designed for a natural listening experience with an expansive soundstage. Its drivers are modelled after the original ATH-R70x and re-engineered for surprisingly powerful bass and an accurate upper midrange. These open-back reference headphones suit critical listening, mixing, and editing.
Product Description
The Audio-Technica ATH-R50x is lightweight at 207 g and uses cooling, open-back earcups with replaceable velour earpads for long-session comfort. Two detachable cables (3.0 m and 1.2 m) each use a 2.5 mm twist-lock connector at the left earcup.

Its open-back design and balanced tuning give clear vocals and lead instruments without sacrificing overall balance. Explore more Audio-Technica monitoring products at Creation Networks.
