Manual of product ATH-S500
Editorial note
The Audio-Technica ATH-S500 headphones stand out for their exceptional audio quality, offering a sensitivity of 104 dB and a closed acoustic system that ensures total sound immersion. This model is particularly suited for audiophiles seeking a rich and dynamic sound reproduction. Additionally, their modern and sleek design, available in blue and white, combines performance and aesthetics, making them appealing to users who care about their style. In terms of comfort, the in-ear coupling allows for optimal sound isolation, although this may not suit all users. The lightweight of 140 g makes them easy to transport and suitable for prolonged use, but some may find this weight uncomfortable during long listening sessions. However, there are some drawbacks to note. The 1.2 m cable length may prove insufficient for those who prefer greater flexibility, and the lack of wireless connectivity could limit freedom of movement. Finally, while the closed acoustic system offers good isolation, it may create a sense of isolation that is not suitable for all environments. Overall, the ATH-S500 represents good value for money, with high audio performance and reliable connectivity, although certain aspects of comfort and usability flexibility should be considered.Score details
