Verkaufe die original verpackten Audio-Technica ATH-M40x Kopfhörer
Is €100 a fair price for a used ATH-M40x, or should you hunt lower? At €100, this listing sits just under the 75th percentile of €101 and slightly above the median of €96, making it a fair price for a used unit in EUR-new condition, though not a bargain compared to the 25th percentile of €69.
The ATH-M40x remains a top-tier choice for studio monitoring and critical listening due to its accurate, uncolored sound and robust build. You gain meaningful upside here by paying only €5 less than the typical new price of €99–€125 while avoiding the wear of daily use, and the “EUR-new” condition suggests minimal aging or cable fatigue. If the listing includes the original coiled and straight cables, this is a straightforward buying opportunity for an enthusiast who values reliability and sonic neutrality.

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.
