Lumia 920 ATH M50 combo

[Parteek Agnihotri]

I'm planning to buy those audio technica ath m50's after all the rave reviews I've been reading and watching. Those cans just look like some behemoths and I'm skeptical of my Lumia 920 will be able to drive them properly with decent volume output. Anyone who can enlighten me?

You must have watched the MKVHD video on those. I came close a few times buying them. I still may.

That and other reviews too, but I'm concerned of my phone can drive them properly

I just tested this combination (ath-m50 and 920) and.....good news! The 920 provides more than enough current to drive these excellent cans. At volume 28-30, you'd need to be a fool to want them to go any louder.....��

Good news. Hello Amazon!

I got some ATH-M50x's off of Amazon a few weeks ago, and they are fantastic with the 920. Don't worry about it.

Did you get the straight wire or the curl? I'm thinking I want the straight wire.

I think the "x" model comes with 3 wires, straight and coiled

I have Nokia Lumia 1520 and a 925. I recently bought a ATH M50x. When playing music, any slight moment will cause the player to stop on both devices. I have swapped cables, checked settings and all sorts. Still no joy. I have no issues when plugged into my iPad.. WTH? Any suggestions out there?

hmm I don't seem to have this issue with my M50x on my 920. Does it happen with other headphones when you use them with your Lumia devices?

 

[ryonjay]

Thanks for your reply. No, I had a pair of beats and they were fine..

 

[gedzum]

That's strange. I'd venture a guess at it being a connection issue. I'm really not sure what to suggest I'm afraid. Since it is happening on more than one device, it might be worth starting your own thread perhaps in the windows phone accessories forum here: Windows Phone Accessories - Windows Phone Central Forums

You might have better luck getting feedback there. Hope you resolve your issue.

Cool, cheers.
On further research, I have discovered that the issue lies in the fact that the Lumias are not recognizing headphones being plugged in- even the Beats.
It must be software.
