Stow, OH (August 31, 2022)—Audio-Technica has introduced a limited-edition “Deep Sea Blue” version of its ATH-M50xDS Professional Monitor Headphones—the result of a global crowd-sourcing campaign where end users voted on their favorite color of the next ATH-M50x model. The limited edition is available in both wired and wireless editions.
The ATH-M50xDS continues to offer its 45 mm large-aperture drivers, sound-isolating earcups and robust construction. With professional-grade earpad and headband material and a collapsible design with detachable cable, the ATH-M50xDS headphones are built for transport.
The wireless ATH-M50xBT2DS offers additional features such as a dedicated internal headphone amp; compatibility with multiple audio codecs (SBC, AAC and LDAC); sidetone circuitry that allows users to hear their voice in the headphones when making calls on most smartphones, and access to voice assistants (Amazon Alexa Built-in, Google Assistant, Siri); a “Fast Pair” feature, enabling users to pair the ATH-M50xBT2 headphones with Android OS smartphones and devices with a single tap on the device; a detachable 1.2-meter (3.9-foot) cable for optional wired connection; and compatibility with the A-T Connect app, allowing control of the low latency mode, EQ, L/R volume balance, choice of voice assistant, misplaced headphone location, change of codecs, and more.
