The ATH-M60xa features proprietary 45mm large-aperture dynamic drivers with rare earth (neodymium) magnets and CCAW (copper-clad aluminum wire) voice coils for high-quality sound reproduction.
The drivers and headphone design work together to provide a sonic signature tuned flat for exceptional clarity throughout an extended frequency range along with accurate bass character. With a frequency response of 15 Hz to 28 kHz, the ATH-M60xa can reproduce a full spectrum of tones.
The ATH-M60xa utilizes a low-profile, closed-back, on-ear design for a comfortable fit and isolation from external noise.
To expand its versatility, the ATH-M60xa incorporates a detachable cable design that exits from the left side. This enables convenient cable swapping and makes it easier to distinguish the different sides of the headphone. Three cables are included—a 3.9 to 9.8' coiled cable, a 9.8' straight cable, and a 3.9' straight cable—to let you choose the best cable for sessions, traveling, or listening at home.
The attached cable is terminated with a gold-plated 3.5mm TRS mini plug for easy hookup to mobile devices, MP3 players, and computer headphone jacks. A secure 1/4" screw-on adapter is included for compatibility connectivity with audio interfaces, mixers, and dedicated headphone amplifiers. Built-in strain relief on the 3.5mm mini plug reduces the likelihood of damaging the connection if the cable is pulled.
Thanks to the key metal components and premium earpad and headband materials used in the ATH-M60xa, the headphones provide lasting durability and comfort while delivering enhanced audio and effective isolation. The memory foam earpads and headband allow the ATH-M60xa to be worn comfortably for hours on end and they detach for easy replacement.
