Audio-Technica ATH-EW9 Circumaural Ear Hook Headphones (Circum-Aural, Ear-Hook, Wired, 14-22000 Hz, 0.6 m, Black, Red)

I now own three of these headphones, plus another similar Audio Technica pair which are no longer available. As someone who hates in-ear ear buds, I was lucky to find a pair of these years ago and have never used anything else whilst out walking. I have had two pairs for over ten years and, apart from some cosmetic clumsily inflicted damage, and very minor wear-and-tear, they still fit perfectly and sound amazing. I have purchased another pair simply to ensure that, should the worst happen, I will still have a pair in full working order going forward, may be for another ten years! If you do not like ear buds, and appreciate good sound quality without proper headphones, then these might be for you.

The Good The luxurious Audio-Technica ATH-EW9 clip-on headphones offer stylish cherrywood earpieces, a lightweight design, and a soft travel pouch. The Bad The Audio-Technica ATH-EW9's sound won't satisfy rockers. The Bottom Line Audio-Technica's ATH-EW9 clip-on headphones combine graceful looks and sonics, but they won't rock your world.

I got these because persona (just kidding) these are high quality exotic headphones that I’ve been meaning to pick up. The build quality is really good, but do note that they fit my ears but I have smaller ears, larger ears might struggle in liking these. The sound is warmer due to the wood backing, additionally these are tuned for highs and mids but lack base since they are clip-ons. Additionally, don’t expect any noice cancellation or sealing, these have a more open aired tone but suffer in noisy environments as it can’t isolate sound due to how clip ons work. However when you pair them to an external DAC like the Qudelix 5k, you can use an auto EQ which make these sound amazing, the EQ helps bring back the base while tuning down the sharp highs. These are very nice exotic headphones that I recommend if you’re looking for something different while still sounding good.

Very good, retro taste

Sounds good, the seller is nice too, the shipment only took 3 days.

Bastante cómodos y muy bonitos. 🗣️🔥

今の時代に貴重な耳かけ式イヤホン。メイド・イン・ジャパン。それも木製、見た目が綺麗で音もいい。コードが少し安っぽい。
