Natural Open-Back Sound

Experience your music with greater openness.

Open Housing for a Spacious Presentation

Let your music breathe.

The ATH-R30x's specially designed open-back housing helps minimise acoustic resonance within the earcup while allowing natural airflow.

This contributes to a more open and spacious presentation, making the headphones particularly well suited for acoustic music, classical recordings, vocals and detailed instrumental tracks.
