Audio-Technica ATH-SQ5A


$180.00 Released January, 2009

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Sturdy wire with stable connections. Sound is very clear and detail, nice high fidelity. Scaled to handle the power from higher-end systems.

The Cons:Wire coming out of both sides is a bit annoying. Bass is a little weak, much better representation in other headphones.

The Audio-Technica ATH-SQ5A are mid-range, around-the-ear, closed back headphones offered by Audio-Technica. The most notable feature of these headphones are the rectangular ear cups giving them a very unique look.
