I got the email too.  Funny how much it looks like a ATH-M50X.

Yeah, looks like a knockoff. Not cheap at all. The mumbo jumbo, on the other hand, is free:

"Tailored frequency response (10 Hz - 26 kHz)"

"Custom-tuned, balanced midrange and transparent high frequency presentation"

You can get something better at a lower price from the site formerly known as Massdrop (provided that you have the patience).

Send me better headphones please

The real ATH-M50x  costs less than this.  It is the better version.

That said I'm kind of unhappy with the pressure they put on the top of my head.  Going to have to find something a little lighter I think.  Maybe try the ATH-R70x

I really like my ATH-M50x, but love my Ultrasone 750's. Yeah the M50x is a bit snug on the head, but sounds very good. Amazon has it for $129 right now.

Some guy used a few books to stretch his new pair of M50x overnight. I saw the pictures, I think it was a review on Amazon.

Personally I can't listen to anything without a heap of 24k-26k! Everything else just sounds so lifeless. ?

I'm sure your dog enjoys the 10 Hz sub sub

$159 for ATH-M50s (that I've seen for as low as $99) and they don't even throw in the 1/4" adapter. Sheesh.

Plus even if you really like the ATH-M50s (and I do) one thing you cannot say about them is that they are any kind of "reference".
