Versus buying new at this level, €130 for these sits a bit above the typical used market but not wildly so: it’s above the €108 median and just under the €138 75th percentile, so I’d call it slightly ambitious rather than a deal. If the pads, headband, and cable are all in good shape, it can still make sense, but there isn’t much room for wear at this ask.
These are popular for a reason: solid closed-back isolation, punchy bass, dependable build, and an easy-to-drive tuning that works well for commuting, casual listening, and studio-adjacent use. The upside here is low drama and broad compatibility; the main value check is condition, since pad wear and clamping comfort matter a lot on this model.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Founded in 1962 in Tokyo's Shinjuku district by Hideo Matsushita, Audio-Technica began as a phonograph cartridge specialist, launching the innovative AT-1 moving-magnet model with a diamond-tipped cantilever that revolutionized affordable high-fidelity playback. Starting with just three employees in a rented house and one million yen in capital, the company quickly expanded, supplying cartridges to Japanese audio manufacturers and relocating as demand surged. This heritage of precision engineering and democratic access to superior sound defines its enduring Japanese craftsmanship.
Audio-Technica has broadened far beyond cartridges into a comprehensive lineup of hi-fi essentials, excelling in headphones, professional microphones, turntables, and phonographic styli. While not heavily focused on amplifiers, speakers, or DACs, it produces elite receivers, wireless systems, and cables, alongside OEM transducers and sensors for pro audio. Its turntables and headphones span entry-level to audiophile grades, with Bluetooth and noise-cancelling models bridging consumer and studio needs.
Renowned for delivering exceptional value through durable, innovative design, Audio-Technica occupies a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, prized by enthusiasts for reliability without extravagant pricing. It garners consistent awards for performance and builds trust via Olympic-grade microphones and global subsidiaries, appealing to discerning buyers seeking proven engineering over boutique exclusivity.
