Audio-Technica ATH-M50xMO Lantern Glow Headphones Are Fans’ Winner

Audio-Technica fans worldwide were invited to vote for 2021's exclusive limited-edition version of the class-leading ATH-M50x. The ATH-M50xMO is the result of almost 40% of the 13,000+ voters choosing the striking Lantern Glow.

The ATH-M50xMO in Lantern Glow is the latest addition to an exclusive series of limited-edition colourways for the M50 range, stretching back to the 50th Anniversary ATH-M50s/LE model in 2012. The previous vote resulted in last year's purple-and-black ATH-M50xPB.

Tracing its DNA from the renowned ATH-M50 studio model launched in 2007, the ATH-M50xMO and regular ATH-M50x professional studio headphones offer a well-balanced sonic signature thanks to its proprietary 45mm large-aperture drivers. Add to that the comfort afforded by the 90° swivelling earcups and collapsible design, enabling them to easily slide into a gig bag; it is easy to see why they are popular amongst music professionals.

Finally, there is also the "professional-grade earpad and headband material" for long-lasting durability and comfort and the fact that the ATH-M50xMO comes bundled with three detachable cables.

applause awards

Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.

Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.

The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.

We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
