Product Description
Designed for streamers and content creators, the ATH-M50xSTS StreamSet™ is the world’s first professional streaming headset that combines the legendary studio sound of the ATH-M50x headphones with the clarity of the iconic 20 Series microphones. Equipped with a cardioid condenser microphone, and two distinct earpad styles that you can use according to your preference, this headset delivers the ultimate studio-quality sound for you and your streaming audience. Designed from the critically acclaimed ATH-M50x, the ATH-M50xSTS StreamSet is equipped with the same 45 mm large-aperture drivers with the addition of two sets of distinct interchangeable earpads– M50x earpads that stress audio quality and sound isolation and mesh and leatherette to emphasize breathability and comfort. Experience studio-quality articulation and intelligibility thanks to the StreamSet’s cardioid condenser microphone, adopted from the iconic 20 Series studio mics. The microphone’s design places it at the end of a flexible boom arm, keeping the mic in close proximity to your mouth, helping to reject background noise and deliver crystal-clear audio. The microphone can be easily muted quickly and efficiently simply by flipping the boom arm into the up position. The StreamSet is available in two configurations. The ATH-M50xSTS is outfitted with a 2 m (6.6') permanently attached cable with 3.5 mm (1/8") headphone input and XLR microphone output for connection to an audio interface or mixer. A 6.3 mm (1/4") snap-on adapter is also included for the headphone plug. For those looking for plug-and-play connectivity to PCs and Macs, the ATH-M50xSTS-USB is outfitted with a 2 m (6.6') permanently attached cable with USB-A connection.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Getting low-latency side-tone is a nightmare on certain operating systems, and always ends up being related to output volume level
This avoids all those issues, sidetone happens onboard (all that is needed is USB power to observe this), can be enabled/disabled, and the level adjusted
Other than that - yep it's an ATH-M50 (over USB) with a remarkably decent condenser mic, which is well positioned for proximity and pop-resistance
Gaming is what I do the most on this PC, and in my main game, Destiny 2, things are clearer and more precise than they were with the HyperX. My other big uses are music and ASMR videos while I work, and my favorite tunes sound better than ever on this headset.
As far as comfort goes, they're quite comfortable. Not quite as comfy as the HyperX, but still something I don't mind wearing all day.
I still love my Cloud II's, and would recommend them for the price, but if you're looking for a step above most gaming headsets then this one is hard to fault. They get a recommend from me for sure.
The only reason I am not giving this headset a 5 star review is because it lacks a volume slider/wheel which makes it difficult as I don’t run it through an audio interface, and the cable is not detachable from the headset, so be careful not to run it over with your chair!
Overall it’s an amazing headset and I will be buying another when this one kicks the bucket.
Top reviews from other countries
The microphone sounds really darn good but it's quiet. I know I had to boost the volume by 9 to 12db in OBS to not sound faint. There's also a function to allow you to listen to yourself when talking through the mic for testing which can be turned off with the rocker switch on the left side. The fact that you just need to rise the mic up to deactivate it is a great touch!
The USB connection finally got rid of an issue I always had with my desktops. With my old pair of M50x, I could literally ear the noise of the electricity when doing things like downloading a file or using my GPU intensively... This would not be present if there was any other sound present but, when no sounds were playing, it was really audible and annoying; especially for the GPU sound since it has was high-pitched. The USB cable is a god-send.
The only thing though... it's the included USB-A to USB-C cable. It's really darn cheap and can cause interference because it's made of thin metal. If you have to route cable through somewhere, I suggest you invest in a good USB-3 extender or use a much better adapter. I recommand UGREEN's products for this.
The cable itself cannot be detached which is a huge bummer - that's something you lose from the regular M50x. It also has the same issues with all other AT headphones i had: the rubber will get stiff if handled regularly and, in my case, I had to buy cable sleeving so it would stop coiling on itself...
Tested with Windows 11, no issues whatsoever. Detected immediately.
Despite the negative, I still give it a 5-star review. Purcahsed after LinusTechTip's channel SHortCircuit featured this product. Oh, and, there's also an XLR version for the mic if that's your thing.
I used that headset for 11 years. I still have it, it still works great. But I switched to another career path (became a burned out professional statistic) and started working from home. My new career involved a lot of zoom meetings and I bought some crappy usb condenser mic.
The mic started fuzzing out so I decided after 8 years of doing this I should invest in a good mic setup. The ATH 2020 condenser mic, which this head set uses in it's capsule is a really good condenser mic. The fact this headset came out just a couple months ago was definitely some kind of divine intervention lol.
It sounds fantastic. Crystal clear audio for both listening and speaking. I plugged it in, and it just worked. There was 0 work.
I am absolutely in love with this headset. I look forward to 11 years of use. I'm unsure if the mic will hold up for as long as the headset will but I trust Audio Technica. It's pricey but this is worth it.
DO NOT get it if you work in a loud/busy call center. The mic's sensitivity is both it's great strength and it's weakness. It picks things up really well and does not isolate ambient noise that well. No true condenser mic will unless you're using a shotgun mic. But they're not building those into headsets.
However, whenever I connect the ATH M50xSTS to my Mac M1 or sometimes randomly while it's already connected, the input volume changes to a specific lower value, the output balance skews to the right, and the mic feedback is enabled.
While the mic is sensitive I am very happy about the result, the mic is great and I can also listen to music whenever I am not calling with it.
