What is it?

The ATH-MSR7 was designed with unique housings constructed of
aluminum/magnesium that is layered to provide a lightweight yet rigid
structure that reduces unwanted resonance. Within these layers, vents are
placed to control airflow and improve dynamics, providing the ultimate audio
experience. A highly flexible swivel design offers a great, comfortable fit
for every listener. The earpads and headband are made of soft memory foam –
perfect for extended listening periods.

These headphones are equipped with 45 mm True Motion Drivers with diamond-like
carbon coated diaphragms to deliver distortion-free audio reproduction with
extended frequency response. The headphones also feature Multi-layer Air
Damping Technology that reduces unwanted vibration and controls the airflow
for superior audio clarity. Completing the package are two detachable Y-type
cables with A2DC (Audio Designed Detachable Coaxial) connectors. One cable is
equipped with a standard 3.5 mm 3-pole stereo mini-plug, and the other has a
4.4 mm 5-pole balanced mini-plug, allowing you to use the MSR7b headphones
with the latest high-spec audio players.

How does it works?

While many listeners may believe that high-resolution audio came along with
the introduction of the Compact Disc in 1982, constraints on the disc’s
storage space always prevented CD audio (standardized at 44.1 kHz/16-bit) from
fully and completely reproducing the original recorded sound. The advent and
subsequent popularity of MP3s only made this problem more pronounced – the
necessary compression of these files causes audio information to be lost, thus
greatly reducing the audio quality. But with lossless audio file formats,
faster Internet speeds, and storage space increasingly easy to come by (and in
ever-smaller packages), the push is on to create audio equipment capable of
capturing and reproducing true Hi-Res Audio, generally considered to be 96
kHz/24-bit or better. The Hi-Res Audio logo certifies that a product meets the
Hi-Res Audio standards. Per these standards, headphones must have transducer
frequency performance to at least 40 kHz. As a producer of these types of
audiophile headphones since 1972, Audio-Technica is well-positioned to provide
audio solutions that meet the demands of Hi-Res Audio media formats, allowing
for the full reproduction of their extended sonic characteristics.
