Saw these headphones years back and always wanted to try them, scrolling through some local trading forums and saw these for cheap.
Really enjoying the sound. These isolate really well.
If I ever go to a cold country I guess these would keep my ears warm as well.
Need to find a headband cover though, it’s peeling a little.
Yeah, though I wish the default pads in the first place were comfortable for me to wear them for a long time and I am one of those people when they are alone in a room or waiting for something, I always have cans or iems on my ear every time for I just love listening to music in general. And yeah the headband covers do flake and they are not that exactly well padded but it does the job done, though I wish the build of the M40xs were a bit durable for the reason why my M40xs are gone is because of the hinges being broken accidentally by little brother. Overall, still a lovely set of cans.
hallo should i get sheepskin hm5 angled or non angled ? because in my country i can’t find zmf cowhide.
and what the different between angled and non angled in term of sound?
thank you.
You should get angled
thank you sir
and thank you for fast reply 
Any thoughts on Prostock series pads on the M40x?
Highly recommend the East Brooklyn adaptor, with ZMF pads for the M40x’s. It’s a great “Bluetooth from TV in bed while your girlfriend is sleeping But can’t sleep without you in the room” thing
they said that it was not very good though in the reviews
i just got the BTR5 in, and it totally destroys this, but i really liked the form factor and having it clip to the headphone, volume is just under what i like, it was perfect for my use case
Great headphones, been using them for the past couple of years, however the biggest point of failure I find is the hinge cracking. I nearly always remove the headphones from above the hinge save for once or twice, so I’m not sure if there’s anything else I’m doing wrong, or if it’s just simply a failure in the design on Audio-Technica’s part, but this is the second time I’ve encountered the problem in the past 4 years, and it looks like my I’ll be getting a third pair soon enough once it breaks.
Oh sweet, I didn’t even know they made a wireless adapter for these. As far as “ZMF” pads, which ones are you using?
I’m finding the default pads uncomfortable for my ears after a half hour, but I don’t want to return these since I like the way they sound. Are the pads you refer to similar in shape or say longer vertically like Jubilee HD58X (which I find to be the most comfortable pads for my head/ear shape)?
Hey bro gimme 10 minutes I’ll link
I bought these for the more neutral tone but am going to try the cowhides, and yes this is a sleek Bluetooth adaptor, but volume is lower than my BTR5
And some SENN headband pads? What were ur thoughts on those verse stock?
more soundstage, more laid back bass, less aggressive highs
Has anyone else tried these with Shure 1540 pads?
Is it me, or do those pads fix the headphones?
Mine really broke due to my little brother accidentally sitting on them and now they are dangling therefore I cannot wear them anymore. Yeah, I agree that is one of the issues that the M40x has and man it sucks more when I did some modifications on mine with the pads and cable replaced. RIP my M40x.
