First of all, under $100? Yes, I found more than a few vendor stores selling these phones (both straight and coiled cord) on eBay for under $100. These are permanent stores with fixed prices, not auctions, so hopefully you could find them for a similar price. from Amazon.com I am still burning these headphones in (owned only a few hours), but already I am honestly mad that it took me 23 years to experience music at this level of beauty. I have never written a review on the hundreds of products i've bought over the years.. from Amazon.com I'd been looking at headphones for about a month or so looking on various headphone review sites when i finally came across the Audio-Technica ATH-M50 set. I was looking for a great pair of headphones between 150 and 300 dollars, so these were on the low end of my search, but i'm glad I made this choice. from Amazon.com I guess I am an audio enthusiast, as I don't produce any kind of music for recording. However, I do know several qualities that make top notch quality sound. from Amazon.com First off, I am no audio professional, and I haven't tried many headsets. However, I will give a comparison from what i have tried. from Amazon.com Holy cow! I don"t know anything about other brands of headphones but when I put these on my head and listen to Bob Seger or Linda Ronstadt, I have these people singing to no one but me. I was a wholesale distributer for audio-technica products in the 1970,s and was impressed with the quality vs cost of their products. from Amazon.com There's really not much more to say that everyone else already hasn't on these. I bought them to replace some Denon DN-HP1000 DJ headphones, which were replacements for the Sony MD700 DJ headphones. from Amazon.com I'll say this first off: I don't record, DJ, or do any mixes with this headphone (no prosumer work). These Audio Technica M50's (coiled cable) were used purely for listening to my music. from Amazon.com One of the reviews here said that these headphones may take a week or two to burn in and reach their true capabilitiy. Well, I've had mine for about 6 hours and my mind is made up already: I love these headphones. from Amazon.com Value. Everything is right. I've used the Sony MDR 7506 for audio editing/monitoring for years, but now I have found a pair of headphones that provides all the strengths of the Sony's, but with none of the limitations. The M50s sound strongly detailed but never harsh. from Amazon.com
