Best For
The Audio Technica ATH-M50x and Beyerdynamic DT 700 PRO X are both wired studio headphones designed for serious listening, mixing and monitoring, but they take different approaches. The ATH-M50x is lighter at 285 g, offers strong sound isolation and includes three detachable cables, making it versatile for studio and DJ use. The DT 700 PRO X is heavier at 350 g but delivers a broader 5Hz–40kHz frequency response, replaceable pads and a rugged build aimed at critical listening and mixing. If portability and versatility matter most, the ATH-M50x is compelling, while the DT 700 PRO X suits users prioritizing detailed studio sound and durability.
Verdict
The Audio Technica ATH-M50x is the better all-round choice for users who want lighter headphones, strong passive isolation, flexible cabling and reliable performance for studio tracking, DJ monitoring and everyday listening. The Beyerdynamic DT 700 PRO X is better suited to critical listeners, mixing and mastering users who value its wider frequency response, replaceable pads and robust construction. Overall, the ATH-M50x wins for versatility, while the DT 700 PRO X is the stronger choice for demanding studio-focused use.
