What customers say about "Key Specs"

Audio-Technica ATH-AD700X Audiophile Open-Air Headphones

Headphones sound great and work well for FPS titles.
Open-back as well so the sound stage is great.
Very good sound quality for a relatively inexpensive pair of open headphones.
Great headphone with sound quality that rivals my much more expensive headphones.
It has a fairly lean bass that's not completely absent.

Audio-Technica ATH-AD900X Open-Back Audiophile Headphones

Sound is great. Good quality.
The bass isn't too overbearing and there's some good detail in the mids.
They sound great and are very clear sounding headphones.
The sound is crisp, that's the best way I can describe it really.
The sound quality is lumpy at the extremes.

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.
