Impressive Value, Professional Features.
Combining an amazing set of features with an even more amazing price the ATH M40x Studio Monitor Headphones offer up what few in the game can do for under $100.

Reviews
Fantastic For Mixing Films | Proven Flat Response
If you are after an unbiased, clean and flat reproduction of frequencies for critical audio mixing or monitoring tasks, this is THE headphone. You can clean up any audio mix done with monitors or headphones that color the frequencies in no time and can hear all the imperfections, necessary for proper mixing. Excellent built, fantastic quality and padding does not fall apart like the previous generation model. Compatible with multiple outputs. Worth every penny!
Best value in this range
It delivers incredibly accurate response at least through the mid-treble frequency range. I don’t want to judge unfairly at the upper treble range, so I’ll leave that alone, but string sections and reverb may, in my opinion, show up a little more weakly than intended, but I’m not certain about this. Excellent mechanical design, the pads are easily replaceable if need be, and the housing seems sturdy thus far. I have not tested it for how it handles falls yet, though. If it fails, I’ll update this.
