Audio Technica ATH-ES7 Portable Headphones
The Audio Technica ATH-ES7 is an ultra-sleek portable headphone with a contemporary design and top-notch acoustic performance. Built from a stainless-steel housing and fold-flat design, the ATH-ES7 offers a larger Neodymium magnet (42mm versus 40mm), reduced sensitivity (100dB versus 108dB), and a whopping increased maximum input power (1000mW versus 100mw). The Audio Technica ATH-ES7 also utilizes a copper clad aluminum wire voice coil for efficient signal transferring, as well as “luxurious” ear cushions designed for total comfort and sound isolation.
Audio Technica’s ATH-ES7 is so impressive that it risks making your MP3 player sound a bit lame. It might even turn you off MP3 and other compressed formats altogether, as its incredibly crisp, focused output reveals every detail – and flaw – in music sources.
The ATH-ES7 comes from Audio Technica’s portable range of headphones, and is small enough to avoid looking ridiculous when you’re out and about. The rubber-clad metal headband and leather-effect ear pads are sturdy and comfortable.
Putting them on for the first time caused us to indulge in a barrage of joyful expletives, and after weeks of use we still haven’t got over the excitement of using them.
The clarity and smoothness from deep sub-bass to ultrasonic treble revealed new details in familiar recordings and made other headphones we previously admired sound weak and vague. Bass was incredibly deep and powerful, and unlike souped-up bass from lesser headphones, remained tightly focussed.
If all you really care about is sound quality, this is the set to get.
