I love that headband design on my other audio technica. Nice find!
Congrats though, I have the R70xa and love them.
I also instantly preordered a custom cable (inspired by Magia) the moment I unboxed and listened to it, that's how mesmerizing it is. ... Thank God I listened! 🙏😂
Agree, have R70x as well and it does sound amazing.
Seeing this has made me happy - I’ve got a pair of R70xs on route for delivery today so i’m real excited now 🙏

I would like to still try the R70XA sometime in the future.

Wooo! r70x appreciation!! They are my favorite pair I own, I love how good vocals and bass guitars sound on them :-)
Audio Technica doesn't get the recognition or attention it deserves by people who are brainwashed by Sennheiser and Bowers and Wilkins.
