### 2/5 — Poor sound on M50xBT2

*2026-08-06, version 2.7.3*

I brought the headphones as supposedly had ‘superior bass response’ and cleaner sound. However the sound is poor and flat so tried the app the EQ goes down to 82hz which is paltry for Bass and no matter of the adjustments you make these sound no better than a cheap £50 pair of headphones.

### 2/5 — Dil desteği

*2026-02-25, version 2.7.0*

Dil desteği yok

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-01-23, version 2.6.1*

The app doesn’t help you do anything. Just tells you how to use Bluetooth you’re better off searching google so the app doesn’t make you agree to 3 different policy’s plus needing to have your constant location sharing, must be able to connect to every Bluetooth device you’ve ever used and automatically using your data in settings

### 1/5 — ATH-TWX9MK2 完全不能連

*2026-01-21, version 2.6.1*

重新配對、重載什麼的完全沒有用，都搜到耳機機型了還連接失敗，Spotify 都比這個聰明，超爛，花錢買瑕疵機型

### 1/5 — 才剛買沒多久的CLSTW2耳機根本不能連線配對

*2026-01-20, version 2.6.1*

才剛買沒多久的CLSTW2耳機根本不能連線配對
我有點想摔耳機

### 1/5 — 想調整按鍵設定但不給改

*2026-01-05, version 2.6.1*

想調整按鍵設定但不給改，而且外部聲音功能關不掉

### 2/5 — 対応してほしい（切実）

*2026-01-01, version 2.6.1*

ATH-M20xBTを是非とも対応してほしい。
人気な製品なので対応してほしい声も多いだろうと思う
イコライザーいじりたいし

### 3/5 — イコイライザーが惜しい

*2025-12-30, version 2.6.1*

セルフカスタムができるイコイライザーがあればとても嬉しかった。

### 3/5 — 善し悪し

*2025-12-25*

低音が良すぎる。音の変化とかぶっちゃけただのイヤホンにそこまでなくない？とか調子乗って変えて戻してみたら低音強化凄すぎて横転。低音強めの曲好きな人、是非お試しあれ。飛ぶから。

でもちょっと困るのは、ヒアスルーが勝手にオフになること。（このイヤホン、普通につけてると周りの音がミリも聞こえなくなるので、ヒアスルーをオフにすると周りの音が聞こえやすくなるぞ！）

しかし私は任意でヒアスルーをオフにしたりオンにしたりしてるので、勝手にされると困る。なのにヒアスルーオンオフを変えれない。すごく困る・・・。違和感違和感違和感！！という悩み。←バグか！？時を待てば治るのか！？時間経過したらまた書きます！

ATH-CKS30TW+です！使用媒体はiPhone16です。

### 1/5 — アップデート不良

*2025-12-19, version 2.6.1*

アップデーしたら、設定調整ができなくなりました。

### 3/5 — 建議開發者團隊

*2025-12-19, version 2.6.1*

1:等化器增加拉條式自己調整

2:能否新增切換降噪或關閉時的提示音能夠調小或關閉提示音的設定、太大聲實在很困擾

### 3/5 — Bummer

*2025-12-06, version 2.6.0*

No bass or mid

### 4/5 — Intuitive app; LOVE Parametric EQ!

*2025-12-06, version 2.6.0*

I use the AT-Connect app with two different pairs of headphones - the over-ear ATH-M50X50BT2 (Lantern Glow) and the true wireless ATH-CKS50TW. The app functions are very similar, and for both models there’s a customizable graphic EQ in addition to presets. Only the M50BT2 has the additional parametric EQ, which is great & really allows the knowledgeable user to adjust the sound on a more granular level. I wish Audio Technica would include the parametric option for its earbuds, too! Regardless, it is among the best of these kinds of apps.
*********edit, late autumn 2025:
I’ve since gotten the ATH-CKS30TW+ earbuds too and I hate only having AT’s presets in the app’s EQ.  WHY don’t they also provide the ability to create a custom setting??? I love everything about the buds otherwise, but I never use them. AT - do better!

### 2/5 — Échec connexion

*2025-12-04, version 2.6.0*

L’application fonctionnait bien il y a 15 jours maintenant impossible de connecter mon casque ATH-M50x qui est neuf. Donc impossible de faire des réglages via l’application. Le casque est connecté au tel mais impossible de se connecter à l’appli même après avoir effectuer toutes les réinstallation et autre idées suggérés dans le support. Dommage

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2026-08-05, version 2.7.3*

I’ve tried everything and my headphones still don’t connect like what is the app used for?

### 1/5 — App doesn’t do much.

*2026-06-22, version 2.7.3*

I’m very dissatisfied with these headphones and the app. Bluetooth feels like its for the ‘90s. Headphones don’t turn on or off reliably, pairing with multiple devices is cumbersome, noise cancellation is meh, and the dang body broke and is held together with a zip tie.

### 1/5 — ATH-AC5TW

*2026-06-08, version 2.7.2*

Does not  come up in list of products

### 1/5 — Meh

*2026-05-21, version 2.7.2*

Will not connect to the app. Love the headphones but I wish I had a way to check the power level

### 1/5 — App is not good enough

*2026-05-19, version 2.7.2*

App is not intuitive and lack real user control.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-05-04, version 2.7.2*

Doesn’t work and demands many permissions.

### 1/5 — 앱 개선 부탁드립니다.

*2026-03-06*

이번에 m50xbt2 산 사람입니다. 제가 잘못 사용하는건지 폰을 껐다키지 않으면 헤드셋을 연결하고 전원을 끈 다음에 다시 연결하려하면 앱이랑 연결이 안됩니다.

### 1/5 — M50x doesn’t connect

*2026-02-21, version 2.7.0*

Although headphones are great, the app is disappointing — can’t connect to m50x at all. How did you mess up like that?!

### 1/5 — 單邊充電？

*2026-02-14, version 2.6.1*

好幾次充電整天，只有左邊100%；右邊0%

### 1/5 — Missing Feature: Switch between devices

*2026-01-26, version 2.6.1*

I don’t see much use in the app. I assumed one can switch between devices like with the Bose or Sennheiser app. I have 3 devices and switching is manual effort. Please add this feature
