Audio-Technica ATH-AD300

$51.00

The Pros:Sit very gently and comfortably on the head/over the ears. Well-priced for the quality of audio, velvet earpads. Audio is very well-balanced, bright.

The Cons:Fly off pretty easily since they don't grip the head much. Looseness and lack of tightness adjusting don't allow for any noise isolation whatsoever--not very good for use on public transportation. Open and quite large - not for use on the go, or for taking with.

The cheapest and least well known brother of the acclaimed Audio-Technica ATH-AD700/900 the Audio-Technica ATH-AD300 is a lower priced circum-aural headphone. Presenting a dark, non-fatiguing listening experience, the ATH-AD300 is also very comfortable, an important variable when considering a headphone.

Velvet earpads get very stuffy/hot in the summertime.
