Audio-Technica ATH-M60x On-Ear Professional Monitor Headphones
Win Technical Excellence and Creativity (TEC) Award
STOW, OH, February 1, 2019 — The ATH-M60x On-Ear Professional Monitor Headphones from Audio-Technica, a leading innovator in transducer technology for over 50 years, have received a NAMM Technical Excellence & Creativity (TEC) Award for Outstanding Technical Achievement in the “Headphone/Earpiece Technology” category. Presented by the NAMM Foundation, the awards celebrate the best in professional audio and sound production. The 34th Annual TEC Awards were presented Saturday, January 26, 2019, at The NAMM Show in Anaheim, California.
Gary Boss, Audio-Technica Marketing Director, Professional Markets, remarked, “We are very proud of our ATH-M60x headphones, and it is a true honor to be recognized by our industry peers with a TEC Award. All departments within Audio-Technica worked hard to bring the ATH-M60x headphones to market including engineering, product development, sales and marketing and we are very pleased the response has been overwhelmingly positive. We thank the voters of the TEC Awards for this recognition.”
Founded in 1985, the Technical Excellence & Creativity Awards is the foremost program recognizing the achievements of audio professionals. Presented annually by the TEC Foundation for Excellence in Audio, the TEC Awards recognizes the individuals, companies and technical innovations behind the sound of recordings, live performances, films, television, video games, and other media. TEC Awards nominations are made by a panel of industry professionals and voted upon by members of various professional organizations and audio industry websites.
Designed for studio, broadcast and mobile applications, the ATH-M60x is a low-profile, on-ear professional headphone model that utilizes the same proprietary 45 mm large-aperture drivers found in the ATH-M50x (with rare earth magnets and copper-clad aluminum wire voice coils), delivering exceptional clarity throughout an extended frequency range with accurate bass response. The ATH-M60x’s low-profile, closed-back, on-ear design provides excellent sound isolation and a great fit, which is enhanced by the exceptional comfort and durability of the memory foam earpads and headband. The headphones come with three interchangeable cables (1.2 m - 3.0 m coiled, 3.0 m straight, and 1.2 m straight – each with a 3.5 mm (1/8") mini-plug), a 6.3 mm (1/4") screw-on adapter, and a protective carrying pouch.
