Full Description

Designed by fans, for fans

The 2024 limited-edition ATH-M50x and ATH-M50xBT2 LAB headphones from Audio-Technica are here, featuring a fan-created colour scheme chosen from worldwide entries.

Superior wireless audio

The ATH-M50xBT2 Headphones are built on the acclaimed sonic signature of the ATH-M50x, featuring proprietary 45mm large-aperture drivers and a dedicated internal amplifier. This combination delivers exceptional clarity across an extended frequency range, with deep, accurate bass response. The inclusion of an AK4331 advanced audio DAC enhances the high-fidelity sound, providing an immersive listening experience.

Crystal-clear call quality

Equipped with dual microphones and beamforming technology, the ATH-M50xBT2 headphones ensure clear and reliable communication. The improved vocal pickup makes these headphones perfect for calls and voice commands. Integrated with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri, you can easily control your device hands-free. The sidetone circuitry improves conversations by allowing you to hear your own voice during calls.

Extended battery life

Enjoy up to 50 hours of continuous use on a full charge with the ATH-M50xBT2 Headphones. The USB-C connection enables a rapid charge, providing up to three hours of playback with just a 10-minute charge. This extended battery life ensures your music and calls are always available without frequent recharging.

Personalised listening experience

The ATH-M50xBT2 Headphones offer multipoint pairing, allowing you to connect to two Bluetooth devices simultaneously. The A-T Connect app gives you additional control over your headphones, enabling you to activate low latency mode, adjust and save EQ settings, change the L/R volume balance, select your preferred voice assistant, and locate misplaced headphones. This level of customisation ensures the headphones meet your specific needs.

Durable and comfortable design

Designed with professional-grade ear pads and headband material, the ATH-M50xBT2 Headphones provide long-lasting durability and comfort. The over-ear design offers excellent sound isolation, making them ideal for use in loud environments.
