## Description

Audio-Technica Ath-M40X Professional Headphones - Black : Audio-Technica: desertcart.ae: Electronics

Review: Highly recommend - Amazing, high quality and the sound.... Uff wonderful!
Review: Perfect for digital pianos - I use this with a Yamaha Clavinova. The sound is just amazing. This is really the kind of use it is made for. The sound is so clear and balanced, you can hear the timbre of each note and all the nuances of varied touch on the keyboard. On a side note, tried it with music on my phone, and it does not do so well with this kind of use. Buy it if you're looking for something for your digital instrument - it really is excellent for that.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent quality
*by S***E on 23 July 2024*

I don't think I need to explain much about this product quality. I was planning to go for either M30X or Sony MDR7506, but chose those for the following reasons 1). Foldability. 2). Detachable cable (2 type of cables come in bag) 3). Good fit for my head. MDR7506 did not fit well on my head. I'd however say that I liked the sound on Sony's as they have better high ends (some say high-ends are boosted). Overall, really impressive quality.
