AV Forums Review:

About the sound quality they said "There is plenty of detail and richness and warmth to the performance that is hard not to like", they also liked the build quality also "Making something feel light but substantial is something of a dark art but Audio Technica has done well at achieving this". Their review was against the AKG K540, the Beats By Dre Solo HD, the Beyerdynamic DT660, the Sennheiser PX360 and Skullcandy Aviators, and in conclusion they said "the A500X is the best performer here and even at one of the higher prices in the test is something of a bargain."
