What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Audio-Technica ATH-AD700X Audiophile Open-Air Headphones
  • Very light on the top of the head but also makes for barely any clamp which can be a problem for people with medium to small sized heads.
  • Fortunately for me they work great for my average size head.
  • Pretty comfortable for decent size and large head. Might be too loose for smaller head.
  • It really depends on your head shape and size. I have a large head, and it is also shaped in such a way that the 3D wing system really makes me comfy.
  • I also have an Andre the Giant sized head so it fits perfectly. Small head ppl complain about the fit.
Audio-Technica ATH-AD900X Open-Back Audiophile Headphones
  • Another design aspect worth noting is the size of these cans, they're not exactly for going to the gym.
  • Size wise they fit my extremely large noggin very well.
  • Comfortable for a someone with a big head and with someone with a small head. Like.
  • The headphones are good size on my head and they not crush my head.
  • This thing only fits people with watermelon size heads.

What customers say about "Features"
Audio-Technica ATH-AD700X Audiophile Open-Air Headphones
  • No setup for different headsizes are required. You just put it on your ears.
  • Comfortable for long sessions. Almost no pressure on top of the head, very little pressure by the earpads.
  • Clear trebles. Noticed some extra features with this headphone on media I always listen.
  • The cord is not removable from the headset, and is extremely long.
  • I do not believe these were built with noise cancellation as a feature.
Audio-Technica ATH-AD900X Open-Back Audiophile Headphones
  • They offer different sound features - more treble and less bass.
  • The longer cord is nice feature - allowing you to connect to a home entertainment unit.
  • The "wings" are a neat feature, but on my head, did not apply enough pressure around my ears.
  • It has a bass booster that makes everything sound perfect for me.
  • Yes, with a bald head, a slight jerk will cause the headphones to shift off my head. Sneeze and be warned.
