The Korena take

ATH-M50x ENSO is a closed-back, limited-edition version with 45 mm drivers, a lightweight frame, and earcups that rotate for single-ear monitoring. It is intended for mixing, tracking, and casual listening, with isolation that helps keep attention on the material. The matte black finish adds sumi-inspired engraving on the rings and headband sliders, while each pair carries its own serial number. Three detachable cables, a carrying pouch, and a screw-on 1/4-inch adapter come included.
