Product details

Pristine monitoring for professional projects

The Audio-Technica ATH-M40x headphones are tuned for a flat, extended frequency response, delivering an accurate reference across tracks and sessions. The 40 mm drivers, paired with scarce earth magnets and copper-clad aluminum voice coils, reproduce clear highs, well-defined mids, and controlled bass with minimal coloration.

Comfortable, isolated listening for long sessions

The circumaural design surrounds the ears to help reduce ambient noise, while pro-grade ear pads and a sturdy headband prioritize durability and comfort. Built for daily studio use, these headphones aim to minimize fatigue during extended tracking and mixing hours.

Real-world versatility for studios and stages

90-degree swiveling earcups enable easy one-ear monitoring when you need to cue or compare while staying attuned to other sources. The closed-back construction contributes to effective isolation in loud environments, making them suitable for professional monitoring in busy rooms. When traveling, a collapsible design helps with space-saving packing.

Two detachable cables expand your workflow: a 1.2 m to 3.0 m coiled cable for flexible studio positioning, and a 3.0 m straight cable for longer connections to interfaces, mixers, or portable devices.
