Audio Technica ATH-A700
Audio Technica audiophile hi-fi headphones with 53 mm drivers and neodymium magnets, designed for comfortable and precise listening at home.
Description
The ATH-A700 headphones from Audio Technica belong to the range of home listening headphones intended for music enthusiasts attentive to sound reproduction quality. They feature a metallic finish and are used in wired configuration, connected to a hi-fi source or a headphone amplifier.
The headphones incorporate large-aperture 53 mm drivers, paired with neodymium magnets and CCAW voice coils, a combination aimed at precise sound reproduction across the entire spectrum. A dual air damping system completes the design and contributes to the reproduction of deep bass, a point that is often decisive in the experience of a closed or semi-open headphone of this type.
Listening comfort relies on an adjustable 3D headband, designed to distribute the weight of the headphones and support extended use, as well as on A-T ear pads presented as perfectly adjustable. The cable, made of oxygen-free copper (OFC) and fabric-sheathed, ends in a gold-plated 3.5 mm stereo connector, supplied with a professional 6.3 mm adapter allowing direct connection to amplifiers or mixing desks fitted with a standard jack socket.
These headphones are aimed at listeners who listen to their music at home on a hi-fi system or a headphone amplifier, and who are looking for a detailed sound rather than portable use. The format and weight indicated by the adjustable headband suggest relaxed use, seated, rather than use while out and about.
What to check before buying used
On a used unit, it is also worth checking that the two 53 mm drivers produce a balanced sound level between both ears, as an imbalance may indicate ageing of the neodymium magnets or CCAW voice coils.
