When it comes to overall construction,the MSR7's are pretty solid. The slide and swivel of moving parts are smoothwith minimal wiggle, the headband holds firm, and ear cups adjust verticallywith deep clicks. There is indeed some plastic in the MSR7...

The ATH-MSR7 has excellent build quality and comes with several cable options ; The overall fit is comfortable, although these headphones do require a little break-in to loosen the headband ; The ATH-MSR7 offers a neutral, well-balanced, spacious sound...

Over-the-ear designs are not the most compact headphones, and these models do not fold in to make them more portable for travel ; Although I personally liked the amount of bass served up by these headphones, those who want a headphone that really...

Overall, I am very impressed with what the Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7 offers for its price. While $250 is not cheap, you could pay more and not get the build quality and performance of the ATH-MSR7. For me, I'd rather listen to a speaker that's overly...

Excellent balanced sound ; Very comfy for long sessions ; Handy removable cable

A tiny bit creak-prone

However, there’s still plenty of life in the M50X if you like your headphones with plenty of bite. Their chunky design also feels like it can take a bit more abuse than the MSR7, although this may be a red herring.

Incredibly comfortable ; Light ; Great sounding

Wires will put some off ; No wireless option ; Pricier than the cans they replace

The Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7bs come from great stock. They succeed a pair of headphones that have been a high watermark for affordable wired listening for a number of years now and early indicators are that they improve on them in a variety of ways. The...

Very comfortable ; Nice design ; Fantastic sound quality ; Very good microphone ; Extension cable included

Expensive ; Not as many features as competitors ; Open design leads to sound leak

The Audio-Technica ATH-ADG1X is an excellent premium gaming headset for people who think that sound quality is an essential part of enjoying games. The Audio-Technica ATH-ADG1X gaming headset is a very expensive set of cans, and for many people that...

Elegant design ; Includes lots of goodies ; Incredible sound performance

Tight fit ; No inline volume control

If you're looking for a set of over-ear headphones with chops in performance and design, it could cost you a lot. But the MSR7 brings the Hi-Res ruckus for a much more affordable price.

Clear, open sound ; Decent detail ; Comfortable fit

Thin, lean balance ; Bass lacks weight and music lacks drive ; Slight coarseness further up the frequency range

The lack of quality combined with a relatively high price leaves them struggling - better options exist that don’t cost as much...

Excellent neutral audio, comfortable to wear for hours at a time, solid build quality, excellent price point

Would prefer less prominent branding (including the “left/right” markings), mid-high push less natural

There may be no Bluetooth wireless and no active noise-cancellation, but the overall quality of the Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7 means that, ultimately, we don’t really care. These are classic yet contemporary cans - and for the £200 asking price you'd be...

They might not be the complete package, but Audio-Technica has created some seriously good sounding headphones here. The ATH-MSR7 offer good build and stylish design, although they aren't the most comfortable or portable around. What we're most taken...
