Audio-Technica ATH-AD700

While their looks aren't for everyone, the Audio-Technica ATH-AD700s should satisfy many.

Considering their price point in conjunction with their sound quality, the Audio-Technica ATH-AD700s are a fantastic buy for novice audiophiles, or anyone looking for a good set of headphones for their tablet or computer at home. Additionally, they...

Audio-Technica ATH-AD700 Headphone Review

The Audio-Technica ATH-AD700 headphones are worth every penny I paid for them at Newegg. I will continue to use them daily for months to come.It is however possible that those of you with smaller hat sizes might find them a bit loose fitting. I found...

Audio-Technica ATH-AD700

The ATH-AD700s strike me as a jack of all trades. They handle everything from classical music to games with such proficiency that it is simply scaring. For $100 these headphones are an absolute steal, if you are looking for a great set of open back all...

Audio Technica ATH-AD700

Many people underestimate the differences between closed and open headphones, pegging both models in a certain series as having a similar sound. Audi...

Brilliant highs, incredible definition, quick tight bass

They leak

As a classical headphone, nothing in this price range comes close. For other types of music, you will still find yourself hard pressed to better the AD700s. Bass-heads need not apply

Audio Technica ATH-AD700 review

If you're seeking an alternative to Grado, then Audio Technica's ATH-AD700s might be just the thing

Agile ; comfortable ; lightweight ; impressive detail

Low frequencies aren't overly weighty

Fast, dynamic headphones with a level of insight rare at this price

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Excellent headphones!

I chose these headphones after quite a lot of online researching. These cans always came up at the top of people's recommended list based on their performance-to-cost ratio. I like the open-air design because it lets me game while still being able to...

These sound fantastic by my standards. I'm not an audiophile but I wanted some headphones for gaming and they sound fantastic with good soundstage, making directional sounds easy to pinpoint. I'm noticing sounds in games that I've never noticed before;...

The purple color on the mesh is a little odd, but it's nothing to mark them down for. They're a little larger than I was expecting, but also nothing worth complaining about. My only real complaint is that the earpieces don't articulate when the band...

excellent

Great, balanced sound for music (that's all I use them for actually). Some people dislike the purple but I think they look pretty sweet. Sturdy enough to rest on top of a backpack and get knocked around a bit. Extremely comfortable, love the open air...

Big. My head is big so it doesn't bother me but after reading all the other reviews I realize this probably is a legitimate con for most people. These are definitely big headphones

Big!

They were nice headphones. I figured my head was a little bigger than normal since my wife says i have an "ernie head. Anyhow they are still big and non adjustable. They would just keep falling off. The sound was decent. From reviews and all makes them...

Stunned that they are this poor

I have purchased from Newegg for several several years. I was shocked when I realized I flushed over $32 dollars in restocking fees and returned shipping. This might very well be my last purchase from them. Very unhappy with such a quality company....

Zero since they don't fit at all

Where to begin! First of all I am shocked this had so many good reviews. I even did research outside of newegg before making the purchase. Despite the mention of one size fits all this couldn't be further from the truth. These fit so loosely on my...
