Robust, Professional, True unprocessed sound..
Audio Technica M20X is the little brother of their M series flagship headphone ATM50X. Do not get fooled by its cheap price. The build quality is on par with their expensive headphones. M20X is also a professional studio headphone which delivers the true or rather raw audio provide by your sound drivers.
Used them for a while now and still no sign of use. Even the ear cup cushions still look brand new after a lot of heavy uses. I was so confident about the sound quality of Audio Technica headset however I did not except this much build quality. The adjustable core actually brushed stainless steel so no need to worry about accidentally breaking them ever. Ear cup cushions are also tight fit which helps to isolate a lot outside (ambient) noise, but at the same time they are very comfortable. They are also very lightweight. I can wear these for hours and forgot that I have them on my head. Most parts are plastic however, those parts feel well designed, robust and can take a heavy abuse.
I play games most of time of the day. Audio output when you play games is actually better than a gaming headset due to its raw sound quality. So you're gamer and you have a doubt about these headphones, I'd say go for it.
The cable length is 3 meters which is more than enough for any situation. But keep in mind that these are not portable pair of headsets so if you intend to buy these only for outdoor use then I suggest you better look for another pair of headset.
Two 40mm drivers provide a solid frequency range which starts from 20kHz and goes down to 15Hz. The low end is not virtually enhanced so you'll hear a very clean, heavy bass. High frequency sounds are crispy clear as well. There's no sound clipping at max volume.
To sum things up, I think, under $100, these ATH-M20x headphones are the best value for money at the moment when you consider its build quality and sound quality.
