Audio-TechnicaATH-M40x Closed-Back Professional Studio Monitor Headphones - Black
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
ATH-M40x headphones are aimed at critical mixing and tracking, using 40 mm neodymium drivers with copper-clad aluminum wire voice coils and a stated 15 Hz–24 kHz response. The closed, circumaural design reduces external sound for concentrated listening, and the rotating earcups support one-ear monitoring when communication needs to continue. A collapsible frame, detachable 3 m straight cable, detachable 1.2 m coiled cable, carrying pouch, and 1/4-inch adapter make the setup easy to move between workspaces.

- Mixing and tracking sessions that call for focused listening through closed, circumaural earcups.
- Recording work where one-ear monitoring helps maintain communication with performers or collaborators.
- Switching between a 3 m straight cable and 1.2 m coiled cable for different setups.
