Description

Featuring new HXDT driver technology, Audio-Technica's flagship ATH-ADX7000 Open-Air Dynamic Headphones provide the most natural, spacious, and comfortable listening experience of any Audio-Technica open-back headphones.

The bass response is uncommonly full and powerful for a pair of open-backs, with solid weight and excellent control. Subtle details come through clearly and naturally in the midrange, making instruments feel present and lifelike, with excellent spatial definition and accurate placement across the soundstage. The upper mids and treble are poised, delivering the right mix of air and refinement without sounding harsh or dampened. This lends intimacy to vocals and a natural realism to transients.

Audio-Technica achieved this natural, full-spectrum sound by managing every detail of the driver manufacturing process, from design and construction to final integration. Their HXDT molding process creates a 58 mm diaphragm with precise roundness - the accuracy essential for highly detailed musical expression. They integrate the diaphragm with the other driver components (baffle plate, magnet, and voice coil), aligning their centers with exceptional accuracy. This ultra-precise alignment allows energy to transfer more efficiently from the magnet to the coil to the diaphragm, which itself is afforded greater freedom of movement.

The headphones' aluminum housings feature a honeycomb-punched design that keeps the housing face open to ventilation. To improve airflow to the diaphragm, the driver unit is optimally positioned within the housing via Audio-Technica's proprietary Core Mount Technology. Combined, the HXDT and Open-Air design elements allow the entire sound output to come directly from the diaphragm, resulting in more accurate, dynamic, and detailed sonic performance.

The ATH-ADX7000 headphones come with two sets of interchangeable earpads, high-density velvet and Alcantara, to allow listeners to customize their listening experience. The high-density velvet earpads help suppress unwanted resonances while delivering well-balanced sound. The Alcantara earpads offer a more durable, luxurious alternative, enhancing the bass and mellowing the treble.

The frame is constructed of thin, rigid magnesium alloy, providing strength and stability while keeping the headphones very lightweight (275 g with the velvet earpads, 265 g with the Alcantara). The magnesium frame plays a key role in dampening unnecessary vibrations generated by the driver's powerful new voice coil, thus minimizing coloration and enhancing sonic purity. The result is premium comfort and uncompromising performance.

The headphones also include two detachable 3.0 m (9.8') nylon-wound cables with A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) connectors at the headphones: a balanced cable with a 4-pin XLRM connector and an unbalanced cable with a 6.3 mm (1/4") gold-plated stereo plug. Each pair of headphones is individually identified by a laser etched serial number and comes with a compact hard carrying case.

HXDT Technology: A Driver Unlike Any Other

The innovative manufacturing process behind the HXDT driver results in a precisely shaped diaphragm, which is essential for premium open-back headphone performance. All circular driver components, including the baffle plate, magnet, voice coil, and diaphragm, are concentrically aligned to ensure consistent diaphragm movement, improved transient response, and cleaner, more natural sound reproduction.

Flagship Open-Air Headphones: Natural High-Resolution Sound

Featuring full, natural bass response and smooth, articulate mids and upper mids, the ATH-ADX7000 allows unrestricted airflow to deliver a truly lifelike listening experience, with excellent spatial definition and accurate soundstage. The included interchangeable earpads - high-density velvet for well-balanced audio, Alcantara for a fuller, warmer sound - allow listeners to customize their experience.

58 mm Integrated Driver Units: Japanese Craftsmanship

As a leading innovator in transducer technology for over 60 years, Audio-Technica places special emphasis on driver design to achieve the optimal sound from each pair of headphones. The ATH-ADX7000's integrated driver units are handmade in their Machida, Tokyo facility to ensure the highest quality.

Balanced cable (3.0 m [9.8"/XLR-M connector [4-pin])
Earpads (HP-ADX5000)
