The Audio-Technica ATH-M40x are relatively neutral studio headphones with a flatter frequency response than the M50x, though they get warm during extended use and have a proprietary cable system.

The Audio-Technica ATH-M40x offers decent value with replaceable cables and good channel matching, but suffers from tonal imbalance, high distortion, and comfort issues.
