Product Information

One-tap Google Fast Pair expedites the pairing process on Android devices, while multipoint technology allows the headphones to pair to two devices at the same time.

That means low-end sounds from, say, a timpani or a huge kick drum, come through clearly without any amount of over-emphasis. There's a low latency setting that improves audio and video synchrony for smooth streaming and gaming. In other words, you get a matte black headset that looks very unobtrusive, the only decoration being a silver “Audio-Technica” logo on the headband.When you drop them around your neck there’s no swivel available to flatten them in either direction, so they do clutch your neck there, but only those with very small necks should be inconvenienced by that. Audio Technica concentrated all their efforts on not only adding Bluetooth but on making clever refinements in areas that made a great headphone even better.

Combining contemporary design with premium materials, the ATH-M20xBT delivers exceptional audio performance for those prioritizing sound quality. The sub-bass synth hits that punctuate the beat come across with excellent depth—you get the full extent of their rumble but they don't overtake the mix. If you're after lots of control over the sound, the Audio-Technica ATH-M20xBT don't have any manual or preset equaliser settings. Including a metal, headband slider is very welcome as that is one of the main points of failure on many headphones.Tuned to mirror the audio profile of our wired studio monitor headphones, the ATH-M20xBT ensures a consistent sonic signature wherever you are.

The ATH-M20xBT headphones are available only in black, and the Audio-Technica logo appears prominently in reflective metallic paint on the top of the headband.If you're ever in a rush you can also give your ATH-M20XBT a 10-minute rapid charge that will keep you powered for up to 3 hours via USB-C connection. You get clarity and detail throughout the frequency range and a refreshingly accurate presentation of deep bass. The ATH-M20xBT wireless over-ear headphones, which feature strong 40 mm drivers, deliver the same acoustic signature as the wired variant, with full-range, high-fidelity audio and increased bass. The Audio-Technica ATH-M20xBT make that accessible to more people because they’re significantly cheaper than other Audio-Technica wireless over-ear headphones but the audio quality is still out to impress.
