The ATH-AX1iS over the ear headphone is ideal for those who need affordability and convenience. Audio-Technica especially designed for music lovers, this headphone can be used on a regular basis for everyday activities. Connect it to your laptop, tablet, smartphone or music player and enjoy excellent quality sound that will allow you to experience the thrill and fun of listening to your favorite genre of music. With 36 mm\1.4 inch drivers the headphone offers optimal sound for it’s price [haven’t heard of many headphones with these drivers at $40 retail] and it’s well cushioned ear pads will ensure that you can comfortably wear it for hours. Here are some of the pros and cons as well as reviews around the net have said.

The over-ear SonicFuel headphones are Audio-Technica‘s mixture of affordability and portability, with this particular pair coming in at a retail of $39.99. They’re the lowest priced model of their over-ear SonicFuel series. You can read our review on the ATH-AX3iS and ATH-AX5iS to compare the specs [they increase by around $20 each model].

One of the biggest highlights of these headphones is the fact that it includes their smart phone control system on the cable, as we’ve seen in most of their earbuds and other ‘i’ models’. This is what really sets them a part — convenience at a pretty affordable price. As opposed to their popular ATH-M50 or M40x models which are designed for studio use [and not too ideal for traveling — although do work as well if you decide to do so], the SonicFuel headphones are aiming towards an everyday music listener instead.

When using it on your smartphone, you can easily answer calls and talk with the help of the in-line mic by touching a single button. You can also use the same button to adjust volume or control, pause or play music or videos. The headphone is available in a wide range of colors, to cater to the needs of people with all kinds of tastes — it has the most styles available of the SonicFuel models.

The colors available are black [ATH-AX1iSBK], white [ATH-AX1iSWH], red [ATH-AX1iSRD], grey [ATH-AX1iSGY] and blue [ATH-AX1iSBL].

You will get an enhanced experience of listening to music as the headphone will not sound processed, artificial or filtered, as Audio-Technica always brings a well-designed tech when it comes to sound quality. No complains with that here.
