Review: Great value for the price and comfortable - Good quality, convenient, comfortable and well made wired headphones. I use them for practice at home on music keyboards, piano, guitar amps and iPads. Reasonably priced. Very comfortable and easy to use. I Like the long cord and comfortable ear pads. Great sound but not as good as some of the higher priced Audio Technica headphones that I have owned but great for what I use them for.
Review: Long battery life, great design, very snug fit, punchy bass - I do music production and also general listening. After using this BT headset I have to say I am very impressed by the battery life as it can hold an entire session of production (few hours, 6 or more and for numerous days) without getting a low battery notification - After couple weeks I got my first low battery so you probably dont need to have this parked on the usb charger for many times in a month. That is the mark of a true BT studio headphone for me and reason why I'd recommend it for just that purpose. The bass quality is actually very noticeable but not overbearing where mid and highs would be flattened out. However it is very punchy bass without "breaking in" out of the box. Any low-lows will be noticeable if you need to work on a bassline sequence in Ableton or an alternate program. The charging time itself from low to full, is at least a couple of hours which is acceptable. Quality build is very high. Fit-wise it is very snug to the ears and buttons are on the left side, which some people may find to have a learning curve (not a high one). Easy to press rectangle style buttons. I haven't used it to gym or cardio with but they aren't heavy enough to where they would fall, I think the JBL TUNE 500s are made for that, because they are feather weight "light" and do a great job cancelling treadmill noise. Im sure these would do the job fine at the gym, they aren't bulky. They do come with a cord in case you want to use without the internal battery, so that's a neat feature. Overall latest BT specs and long battery Im sure these would do the job for a long time, they are my go to, audio feels twice that for the price so it almost feels like a bargain but they probably sound like $150 phones. Ive had the Monster Inspirations which have a similar price tag but they are 4x as heavy and audio signature is similar but wireless and way more utility. I highly recommend them.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these noise-canceling enough to wear on a plane and not hear the plane noise?**
A: They do NOT have electronic noise canceling. They are over the ear. The cups absorb outside sound but not enough that would be considered "noise cancelling". They're mainly for DJ's, home, and professional studio producers who use them because electronic "Noise Cancelling" tech interferes with recordings.

**Q: are these good for big heads? i have trouble finding headphones that fit comfortably over my big head. also i wear glasses if that helps**
A: They grip my average size head fairly firmly. Not enough to hurt but a big head may have problems. I was able to bend mine a bit to lighten the grip

**Q: How does this compare to the ATH-M30? And how comfortable is it for extended hours of use?**
A: I can only respond to the 2nd part of your question as I have not tried the ATH-M30, but the ATH M20X was (for me) extremely uncomfortable even after using for only a short period of time. This was due to the, IMO,  excessive heat build-up which literally caused pools of sweat to collect inside the earpieces. I returned the headset after a few days.

**Q: Do these headphones come with  a carrying case?**
A: No, they don't come, but I suggest to buy a case just in case.
If you don't want to, buy it without a case, those are durable headphones, but you never know if you'll need the case to carry them in a bag, back pack, carry on.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Top Notch BT OTE Headphones
*by D***R on January 9, 2026*

Was shopping for Bluetooth over the ear headphones between Audio-Technica and several other brands. For the price, these are exceptional. I've worn these daily for the last 3 years. Exceptional sound, materials on ear surrounds and headband tend to flake with extreme use. Overall worth the money!
