Audio-Technica ATH-W1000X Headphones (Free S&H US Ground Lower 48)
A reviewer succinctly summarized his findings: "These headphones are amazing." Such is the case. See the review links below.
The ATH-W1000X is the 10th generation in the prized and world-class Audio-Technica W Series. With the ATH-W1000X, the detail and ambient sound that were missing in other headphones are restored with natural sound quality, clarity and dimensionality that is enthralling. Bass is solid with extension and weight, and there is plenty of attack and bite. Vocals, especially females are incomparably celestial. The overall presentation is natural, organic and lively - a counterpoint to the mundane.
