    5 Stars
    Sounds amazing
    Great gift idea to give to someone who likes music or is an aspiring musician. Great for late night practice and not waking up my family. The ATH-M30x are fantastic headphones; crisp vivid sound I prefer to use them even when no one is home because they sound better then my speakers. Would recommend 5/5.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Gaming Performance!!!
    Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2023
    I read up a lot about these before buying them for gaming. Everyone said these would be terrible for gaming, which didn't make much sense to me as these are professional grade studio monitors. I said screw it. I'll try them. Boy I'm glad I did because these take a big fat poo poo on my 240$ gaming headset. The lows are very nice and the highs are very nice ( very easy to hear footsteps while explosions are happening ). The Mids seem maybe a bit hollow sounding but I can't complain for the price. Sound overall is absolutely fantastic.
    As for comfort. I have a medium sized head and they fit me great. They are a bit snug but not uncomfortable for long gaming sessions in my experience.
    Build quality is great and they are very lightweight!
    If you are thinking about buying these for gaming don't think twice!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Satisfeito com o investimento feito
    Reviewed in Brazil on April 14, 2022
    Inicialmente, deixo claro que faço esta avaliação após uma semana de uso do fone!

    Pela primeira vez fiz um investimento mais elevado em se tratando de um headphone. Sei que os equipamentos da Audio Technica são de alta qualidade e optei, deliberadamente, por comprar um fone desta marca. O produto chegou muito bem protegido e vem acompanhado de uma caixa robusta, com manual e instruções em diferentes idiomas. Antecipo, também, que ele não possui microfone embutido.

    O fone contém um adaptador a ser utilizado em mixers e amplificadores em geral o que, para mim, é necessário já que também utilizo o equipamento constantemente no meu receiver. O cabo tem 3m de comprimento, sendo inadequado para quem pretende usar o fone em lugares públicos, como academias e ônibus. Além disso, vem acompanhado de uma bolsa de proteção para que se transporte o fone para outros ambientes sem correr o risco de danificá-lo. Não costumo usar headphone por longos períodos mas, ao que me parece, ele não causa maiores incômodos para quem pretende passar horas e mais horas com o mesmo. O ajuste para a cabeça/orelhas é de fácil manuseio.

    Quanto à nitidez do som, percebi um equilíbrio adequado entre graves, médios e agudos, da maneira como desejava. Pude notar algumas nuances sonoras de músicas que, mesmo conhecendo há décadas, nunca tinha reparado, inclusive em fones anteriores da JBL que tive. Talvez para quem tenha a pretensão de utilizá-lo de forma profissional, esse fone não atenda inteiramente às expectativas, embora seja um ótimo equipamento de entrada.

    De uma forma geral, portanto, estou extremamente satisfeito com o investimento feito. Para quem deseja um fone de excelente qualidade com pretensões domésticas apenas, trata-se de uma ótima opção.
