FULL STORY ======================================================================

Audio-Technica has been making headphones for 50 years, and to mark the anniversary, the firm has created a pair of headphones that'll make any audiophile drool. The new Audio-Technica ATH-ADX3000 have been hand-crafted
in Tokyo as "a testament to Audio-Technica's six decades of audio
innovation", according to the company.

The open-back headphones are very light at just 257g, and they're based
around the same Core Mount technology that first appeared in the ATH-ADX5000 open-air dynamic headphones. Core Mount integrates the driver directly into the baffle, which A-T says improves both airflow and full-range audio reproduction.

The new Audio-Technica ATH-ADX3000 headphones are available now with a price tag of 859 / 999 / $999.

That's significantly less than the ATH-ADX5000, and it means you can get the same kind of reference-quality audio experience for approximately half the cash; given the glowing reviews the 5000s have attracted, that means these headphones could be something quite special, and a serious contender for our list of the best wired headphones .

As for Audio-Technica, the firm says that while it's celebrating 50 years of headphones, it's excited about the future especially with the resurgence of vinyl and high-quality home audio setups. According to Kazuo Matsushita, Audio-Technica's president, Since 1974, we have developed various
technologies to reflect the changes in the market from the adoption of smartphones to the expansion of home studios however, we have always
remained true to our analogue core, as we still start every process in our HQ with a transducer. I look forward to the next 50 years of bringing quality audio to all.
