Audio Technica ATH-M50xENSO Wired Monitor Headphones

Overview

The 2025 limited-edition ENSO headphones celebrate 10 years (and counting) of the ATH-M50x, launched in 2014, by returning to a classic, all-black style with a twist. The name ENSO was inspired by Japanese paintings, where artists create a circle with one singular motion, representing the cyclical nature of life.

The circle reflects both Audio-Technica's return to the original sophisticated black color after releasing a spectrum of limited-edition designs and the iconic rings on the ATH-M50x. For the first time, the headphones will feature custom engravings on the rings and headband sliders, reflecting the brush strokes of sumi ink and audio waves. A serial number engraved into the matte black headphones ensures every pair is unique. The packaging also includes bespoke designs, created for this campaign.
