DESCRIPTION
GET YOUR HANDS ON AUDIO-TECHNICA’S FIRST PROFESSIONAL OPEN-BACK HEADPHONE
The Audio Technica ATH-R70x is the first pair of open-back reference professional headphones and stands as a flagship model in A-T’s lineup of professional studio headphones from Audio Technica. ATH-R70x features specially designed proprietary 45mm large-aperture drivers and acoustically transparent housings fashioned from aluminium honeycomb mesh. These headphones provide an accurate and natural open-back sound. They also incorporate a new, improved design of the popular 3D wing support system to provide even greater comfort during the prolonged use often required in a professional setting.

PROPRIETARY DRIVERS FUSED IN AN OPEN-BACK DESIGN FOR AUDIO PROFESSIONALS
Accuracy and clarity are apexes when it comes to sound quality. Audio-Technica ATH-R70x professional open-back headphones deliver just that and bring out all the detail in your music and mixes. The ATH-R70x features proprietary 45mm large-aperture drivers tuned to accurately reproduce extreme low and high frequencies while maintaining perfect balance. High-efficiency magnets and pure alloy magnetic circuit design reduce distortion and ensure accurate and extended frequency response from 5-40,000 Hz. Combined with the open-back design and acoustically transparent aluminium honeycomb-mesh housings, these premium headphones are suited for studio mixing, personal listening, mastering, post-production and audio forensics.


MASTERFULLY ENGINEERED AND DESIGNED FOR LONG LISTENING HOURS IN THE STUDIO
The Audio Technica ATH-R70x have been engineered with carbon composite resin that improves structural rigidity and delivers a detailed transient response never heard before. The Audio Technica ATH-R70x allows you to stay focused on your music with the exceptionally lightweight design and 3D Wing Support system to keep you comfortable during extended use. To elevate the wearing experience further, the ATH-R70x embodies breathable fabric on its earpads to provide superior comfort even during extended listening.




DETACHABLE CABLE DESIGN FOR STEREO ORIENTATION AND BUNDLED WITH ACCESSORIES
Audio Technica ATH-R70x are robust yet lightweight and equipped with a unique, dual-sided detachable cable that automatically maintains proper stereo orientation (no matter how it’s attached). Every aspect of the R70x headphones is designed for lasting comfort, convenience and audio purity. To get you started right out of the box, Audio Technica ATH-R70x comes bundled with a dual-sided straight cable for a tangle-free experience. You also get a protective carrying pouch to store your ATH-R70x headphone and carry it whoever you go.
