Audio-Technica ATH-AVC400 SonicPro Over-Ear Headphones Black

I'm a streamer, so good audio is important to what I do. These have it, absolutely. Nice and clear, crisp and well defined. The headphones are reasonably comfortable, too, if a little bit awkward. I expect I'll adjust to that; there's always an adjustment period with new headphones. Only issue is that they're very quiet. Part of that is going from isolation headphones to ones that don't cut out all external sound. But even factoring that, they're quiet compared to my old headphones. Not really a problem, though, since I tend to keep everything turned down anyway.

My first pair of Audio Technica, suddenly I'm a fan, sounded pretty good, good bass response. loving it... good built, no squeak when put it on or taking off, comftable, light. good price.. considering these are not one of audiophile headphones, but I think they are awesome. I use them for gaming and listening to music. Edited: The headband didn't extend for enough for my liking, I took em apart loosing up the springs, it was a pain to do so, but well worth it. and then changed new Brainwavz earpads, this headphones is now the most comfortable ever, I can wear it all day.

Hello reader; I assume a fellow music -lover; Hope you're doing well today; I'm a 61 year old guy from New England and this is a review of my new Audio-Technica ATH-AVC400 SonicPro Over-Ear Headphones that I received from Amazon yesterday as a replacement to my Edifier H850 that served me very well for a year, but just recently the stem of the right earcup started to crumble(brittle plastic), hope these lines will help you making the right purchasing decision. well these headphones are simply delightfulAsDIO would say: Holy diver! I'll be honest, I'm not a strict audiophile purist who doesn't accept anything but a laser- straight frequency-curve from 20 to 20000 Hz, I do enjoy a little V-ish sound so most of the time I need headphones for YouTube music videos, the signal goes through my Logitech Computer speaker system that has a standard 3.5mm stereo female jack on the right speaker, on my Windows10 Sound settings I have the Enhancements/ Equalizer preset set to Rock, plus I added a pinch of extra treble at 8 and 16 kHz to my liking, and I saved it as [Rock XT] extra treble this way I really enjoy the sound on all music styles from Alan Parsons through Joe Satriani to Pet Shop Boys,+Welcome to the Pleasuredome by FGTH and let me tell you these AT headphones do a fantastic job, you don't have to turn the volume up high , even on moderate volume they sound so energetic, substantial across the whole frequency spectrum ; so pleasant quite an improvement over the otherwise excellent Edifier (BTW those are not available from Amazon Anymore). although the H850s had better isolation; through the AT I could hear my wife using the hand mixer in the kitchen I believe these are designed to be semi-open back for better bass response. So far I haven't gotten any complaints from my wife who is sitting right next to me playing on her own PC no sound leakage. the other thing is they do feel quite warm on my ears at 1 hour of use it's summer, hot and humid here in New England, the fan is spinning above me, but the sound quality is worth it one personal issue that I hope you don't have to worry about is: my left side is paralyzed due to a stroke 10 years ago, so I can only use my right hand to put them on/ take them off , and that was easier with my Edifier- and earlier my Koss Porta pro. anyway, this was my review, hope it was helpful go and get these! signing off: zocsy. Thanks for reading, take care!

This was a gift for my friend who was using a gaming headset before. One of these + a desktop mic is going to be magnitudes better, and this is a decently priced model! I haven't listened to them, but I have M50x's and we both like our AT headphones!

Great sound quality. Cord has alot of length. Headset is really comfortable.

It's a decent pair of headphones as far as weight goes. It also has a self adjusting headband which is a plus. The 2 things that make these 3 stars for me, is the cord while flexible, you can't swap it out if it develops a short. As anyone can tell you with headphones, what normally happens? cord is normally the first thing to go b/c it develops a short somewhere along the cable. So this is annoying. The other thing that gets me is the faux leather ear pads... as I've used more headphones, I've come to realize what I appreciate more-WHAT works better. The leather ear pads, while they do cover my ears just fine. They are too hot. As far as I can tell, I can't even buy a different set of ear cushions... ? The sound quality ironically enough does seem to be better than my 'Philips Fidelio X2HR', which honestly surprised me. I guess it's the "sharpness" of the audio, it just seems slightly better. For the price, it's an "ok" pair of headphones. But it could be a lot better with a couple of tweaks. *UPDATE* Dec 27 2023 I wanted to give an update on these headphones. The "Wrap" around the cord, leading to the headphones, the junction right where the cord goes into the headphones. That "extra" wrap around the cord, developed a split... and not too long afterwords, the headphones developed a electrical or grounding "short" of some sort. I've only owned these headphones for slightly over a year. (1 year and 5 months roughly). I've taken care of these headphones, to the best of my ability. Even modded the earphones with upgraded material... & so it's a real bummer to deal with this.

Quality item which works well when using for audio voice-recording and playback

I have tinnitus so take this into consideration when reading this review. I mostly play video games and watch videos on the internet so that is where my ranges are coming from. I bought these to replace my ATH-M50X (nothing wrong with the audio on them, they just won't fit on my head anymore due to faulty plastic). I think I like the M50X better in terms of comfort and sound. The base on these headphones out-of-the-box is very boosted. Mid-range vocals also seem to be boosted but not as much as the base. I got an equalizer to lower these values and got it to normal listening levels. Normal speaking voices can be overwhelming and piercing to the ears if these levels are not lowered. Unless you have a small head, the way these fit might pull up on your ear lobes. They don't sit on your head so much as they pull up on your ears because of the auto-retracting headpiece. The pressure on the top of the head is unusual. I'm hoping the feeling doesn't cause tension headaches. If you don't have hearing problems and love listening to loud, base-y music, these will definitely be what you want to give you hearing loss sooner rather than later. Otherwise, get an equalizer and they're fine.

Tienen una muy buena reproduccion de sonido para su rango de precio, el sonido es diferente al ser audifonos de monitor, pero si es el sonido que buscas estan perfectos. la calidad de construccion es buena, pero los materiales no son premium, pero son mas que adecuados para el precio, bastantes comodos para usar por mucho tiempo. Son muy grandes!, y una pequeña desventaja es que no se pueden doblar o colapasar, asi que son complicados de mover, pero ideales para un estudio.

I wanted these as flat response monitors for my guitar late at night. Great Bass (too much for me) and good quality parts and consideration feels good in the hands. Only thing I don't like is the cord isn't detachable.

I'm really happy with them. They are the best over-ear headphones I've ever used. For the price they sound excellent. Sound: They aren't audiophile headphones but their sound is great to me. They are loud and sound very clear but aren't 100% natural of course because of the bass. But no matter what volume you are in they very powerful and accurate. I've used them for movies, games and music and they sound perfect. Their bass is really strong and is not muddy at all. It is very bold and deep and powerful. Those 53 mm drivers surely come in handy. Treble is also balanced with clarity and bass. They are especially powerful when watching movies. Movies with these headphones is like being in a theater. Loud, clear sound with very powerful and deep bass. For music and games they sound like normal and clean/clear sounding headphones that can produce a high amount of bass. Overall, they are perfect sounding headphones for the price if you are just going to use them for personal use. They sound tons and miles better than Beats or any other expensive headphones I've used. Build Quality: They are made of really strong materials while being reasonably light. Plastic and no metal, yes but the materials are not cheap and they are very durable and feel that way. It's made very thick and smooth plastic. The cushioning of the headband is very soft and feels premium. It seems to be made out of a spongy material and covered with black fabric cloth which is very good for your head. The ear pad cushions are large but go over my ears. They are also soft although at first they hurt my ears because I wasn't used to them. Now that I'm used to them they are very comfortable and I can use them for hours. If you are used to wearing smaller headphones it will take a short amount for you to get used to them as well. Overall their build quality feels premium for their cheap price and they will not break easily. ~Conclusion I'm satisfied with them and I highly recommend these. Both price and build quality are great while they sound so much better than popular and expensive headphones such as Beats, Bose etc. In my opinion these are also better than the ATH-M20X. The only flaws are that they have a very long 3m wire, no microphone and they are large. But other than that they are excellent and they deserve a 5 star.

Pelo preço, e por ser de uma marca renomada como a Audio-Technica, imaginei que ele fosse realmente de altíssima qualidade, mas infelizmente o áudio é extremamente abafado (o que não faz muito sentido pelo fato de ele ter os médios mais acentuados e os baixos e graves menos acentuados), a qualidade da construção do fone é estranhamente frágil e as almofadas são muito finas e desconfortáveis, aperta muito na cabeça e o cabo é desnecessariamente longo.

Muy buen sonido, sin ser lo top del mercado. Excelentes para el dia a dia. No defraudan
