Our take on the Audio-Technica ATH-M40x
The Audio-Technica ATH-M40x is a closed circumaural monitor headphone with no mic, suited to streamers who monitor and use a separate mic. At a tracked $109 it sits at the top of its $87.20 to $109 range across 19 points since June 1, 2026, so a sale is worth a wait.
It has 40mm drivers tuned flat, 90 degree swiveling earcups and a collapsible frame. The cable is detachable, with a coiled and a straight option. Impedance is 35 ohms. It weighs 0.24 kilograms. Retailer ratings average 4.6 across 16,987.
- Tuned flat for monitoring
- Swiveling earcups for one-ear checks
- Detachable cable, coiled or straight
- Tracked $22 above its recent low
- No mic, so you need a separate one
Where it fits in a build
Monitor your audio. Closed-back headphones (no mic) are the pro pick if you mic separately; a headset adds a mic for comms or casual use. See every headphones / headset pick
