The best-selling studio monitor headphone ever made. V-shaped stock tuning corrects well — with StepFreq's profile applied it competes with gaming headsets costing twice as much. Excellent passive isolation for noisy environments. Drives from any source at 38Ω.
These filters are applied first — they flatten Audio-Technica ATH-M50x's frequency response to neutral. A game-specific footstep boost layer is then added on top. Both are baked into the downloaded config.
