Audio-Technica ATH-M20XBT Wireless Headphones

Product Information

The updates to moving an already very popular headphone to a wireless design have paid off big time. As well as mild discomfort during extended listening sessions, the rigid cushions didn’t fully conform to the areas around my ears, reducing the efficacy of the passive noise cancellation.

Natürlich nicht ganz so brilliant wie bei den Studiokopfhörern von AudioTechnika, die sind großartig, die kosten aber auch das dreifache.

Wer einen treuen Bluetoothkopfhörer sucht, der sich auch über viele Stunden tragen lässt und bei dem weder Ohren noch Akku schlapp machen, wird hier definitiv einen Freund für's Leben finden, den man zusätzlich auch noch für's Monitoring beim Aufnehmen nutzen kann. It takes a short amount of time to get used to using physical buttons on the back of your headphones, but it’s equally possible that you’ll just end up using your music player’s controls on your phone.

So few headphones we test make room for subtlety and nuance in the deep lows, so we're particularly appreciative of the treatment here.Unlike some of the higher end options on the market, the Audio-Technica ATH-M20XBT does not have capacitive touch controls or gesture controls. They have introduced low latency wireless standards to decrease the time between movement and sound reproduction for gaming. Given that Bluetooth operation requires fitting chips, power and batteries inside the headphones, the first surprise is how light the new wireless headphones are, at 216 grams – that’s just 26 grams over the non-wireless version. The Audio-Technica M20xBT are the wireless version of the entry-level model in the popular ATH Mx series of headphones. After three hours of use and being left on all night, the little voice still announced “battery high”.
