If you’ve ever wanted to try an open-back headphone, now’s your chance — and at a great price — thanks to the Audio-Technica ATH-R30x.
Open-back headphones deliver a noticeably different sound signature compared to closed-back models. They sound more spacious, offering an experience more similar to listening to speakers. There is one downside: your surroundings will also get to enjoy your music, as the sound leakage is quite noticeable.
If you want to experience an open-back headphone without immediately paying a premium price, the Audio-Technica ATH-R30x is now available. Inside, you’ll find 40mm drivers that, according to the manufacturer, guarantee a balanced frequency response with well-defined lows, transparent mids, and smooth, extended highs.
Soft velour ear cushions and an adjustable headband ensure this headphone is comfortable to wear. Weighing only 210 grams, the ATH-R30x is also ideal for long listening sessions. The frequency range spans from 15 Hz to 25 kHz. As promised, the price is very attractive: it’s available for just €99.
