Product Description
The Audio-Technica ATH-R70xa delivers pure sound directly from the transducer for an authentic open-back experience with minimal distortion. Unrestricted airflow and the absence of internal resonance allow an extremely quick transient response, giving the clarity and separation needed for complex contemporary mixes.

It weighs just 199 g (without cable) and uses a 3.0 m detachable, locking, L/R signal-independent cable, plus a new headband with a user-replaceable suspension strap. Explore more Audio-Technica monitoring products at Creation Networks.
