Every time I picked them up I marveled at how little effort it required. I think most people would have preferred a nice wooden box like the one that comes with the Audeze LCD-2 and LCD-3 planar magnetic headphones that could be repurposed and reused.Ĭonsidering their size, the Audio-Technica ATH-W3000ANV headphones are remarkably light. Audio-Technica even included a small velveteen bag to hold the headphone cable, but none for the headphones themselves (I guess A-T figures the ATH-W3000ANVs will spend most of their time on your head.) While I was impressed by Audio-Technica’s attention to detail, I was disappointed with the re-use possibilities of A-T’s packaging-nothing to do but put it in the attic with the other fancy audio component boxes. As befits a 50th anniversary model, these headphones came in a deluxe leatherette finished box with a slipcase and a handwritten note from Audio-Technica’s founder, Kazuo Matsushita. Audio-Technica’s ATH-W3000ANV headphone review sample was #1505 (the MSRP for the headphone is $1,299.95, though street pricing may be considerably lower). You know a headphone is expensive when it has a serial number.
