It has been almost a year since I last purchased the Audio Technica MTH-50's and they are still going strong. I
blogged about them back around March 2014 of last year. They still sound great and probably better. I wouldn't necessary call it 'burn-in' and think more you get used to how they sound and start to pick up more of the minute details that would be blurry or drowned out in a cheaper pair of headphones. In hindsight, while the 'white' color seemed cool...they pick up dirt and crap a lot easier and especially the pleather headband is showing some wear and tear. I can see this eventually peeling and cracking at some point. This doesn't detract from the sound quality and they will remain usable for a long time. However, I do wish they had invested in higher quality materials for the headband material.
Recommendation?
Would I still recommend the MTH50's? Yes. These are worth the money. The only other pair I might consider in this range are Beyerdynamics or the Sony MDR-V6's. While, I haven't tried either of those headphones, based on the reviews online these seem okay and I trust their reliability as they were accurate in their assessment of the Audio Technica's. Hopefully, in 5 or 10 years I can still blog about this same pair of MTH50's and still have nice things to say.
