There are not too many headphones listed here that I truly dislike. I happen to enjoy most of the headphones included, and I can usually find at least one redeeming quality in a headphone, even should I feel it misses the mark. Unfortunately, the only truly redeeming quality that I can find in the ATH-W5000 is that it is one of the best looking headphones ever made. I find its sound quality to be bordering on awful.
作为一个宽容的聆听者，我真的很少有听了确实不喜欢的耳机。任何耳机，甚至是那些我认为不值这个价的耳机，总是多多少少有一些优点，哪怕只有一个。不幸的是，今天吐槽的对象，铁三角W5000的唯一的优点就是“外观最佳”。 对于声音，我觉得简直可以用操蛋来形容。
I purchased a pair of the ATH-W5000 in 2007. I was completely shocked by how poorly it performed. Today, it remains the only headphone that I have ever returned. A couple of years later, I was informed by a respected member of the community that he had encountered two different pairs of the ATH-W5000. According to him, the earlier one sounded defective, while the later one sounded a bit better. After I was given this information, I contacted the manufacturer to see if there was any record of changes made with regard to the production of the W5000. According to the manufacturer, there was no record of a production change and there were no documented defects.
我是在2007年购入这幅ATH W5000的。其声音之差让我着实震惊不小。直至今日，W5000仍然保持的一项纪录：就是这是我唯一无法忍受而最终退货的耳机。数年之后，论坛上的老烧告诉我，他碰到过两种完全不同的ATH-W5000. 就他个人经验而言，先前的一副声音确实很差，而后来的那副也是稍有进步而已。得知此事之后，我联系了厂家询问是否W5000的规格有所变更，但是厂家的官方回答是：没有记录显示生产工艺的变化也没有记录在案瑕疵可查。(编者按：官方的说法果然很官方啊———）
However, I was convinced that the pair I had initially purchased was defective since so many people seemed to like the sound of the W5000. In 2010, I purchased the ATH-W5000 for a second time. It sounded about as bad as I remembered. The only way that I can even begin to appreciate its sonic presentation is at an exceptionally low volume level.
然而奇怪的是，由于许多人都声称喜欢W5000的声音。让我不得不相信，当年是我自己倒霉买到了瑕疵品（编者按：你确定不是在淘宝买的厂货？或高仿？）因此，在2010年，我重新买了一副W5000, 看声音还是和当年记忆中的一样操蛋。时至今日，我仍然只能接受这幅耳机在不出声时候的声音表现。（编者按：高级黑+端子手！）
STRENGTHS 优点
ATTRACTIVE: I still think this is the most beautiful looking headphone that Audio-Technica has ever made. Its striped ebony wood finish is even prettier to my eye than the cherry wood finish of the ATH-W3000ANV (Audio-Technica's newer and far greater flagship).
外表淫荡： 我还是要说，这是外表最淫荡的铁三角耳机之一。 那种条纹的黑檀木所展示的纹理对我而言比ATH -W3000Anv的樱桃木和越前漆都更为迷人。
COMFORT: Audio-Technica's leather earpads are very soft. While I'm not a fan of the self-adjusting headband design, the ergonomic fit of the headphone allows the earpads to loosely encompass the ears, which is rather comfortable. I have a larger-than-average-size head. It is possible that one with a smaller head may find that the W5000 wears a bit too loosely.
舒适：真皮耳罩异常柔然。尽管我不是传说中的铁三角饭，但是铁三角的“自适应”的头梁的人体工学设计让耳罩松松的环绕整个耳朵，确实是无比舒适的享受。而作为大头党的一员，W5000对于我来说正好也许对于小头党来说就有可能太松了一点（编者按：6个字可以完全说明白：耳罩软，不夹头）
STORAGE: The W5000 ships with a really wonderful carrying case. It looks like a hard plastic suitcase specifically designed for your headphones. The case features a wonderfully silky interior as well.
包装： 塑料包装盒非常气派。内部有丝绸衬里。（编者按： 没什么好夸的了，只能那包装充数）
ISOLATION: The ATH-W5000 is one of a small handful of full-size closed-back headphones on my list. Because of its closed-back design, it offers some attenuation of outside ambient noise.
隔音： 作为笔者拥有的少数几只全尺寸的封闭式耳机，隔音效果比开放是耳机好上不少（编者按：这不是废话吗？）
WEAKNESSES 缺点
SOUND: Normally, I would evaluate several distinct attributes of the sound in order to determine which are successful and which are in need improvement. In this case, I find that the sound is simply poor all around. It is a nasal, congested, non-transparent, bass-less, unnatural tone.
声音： 四个字，一无是处。
HEADBAND CONSTRUCTION: I'm not a fan of Audio-Technica's self-adjusting headband design. I think it is flimsy and easily breakable. While many of Audio-Technica's full-size flagships incorporate this headband design, I do wish this design was something they would abandon.
头梁： 我不喜欢头梁的自适应设计。 看起来摇摇欲坠，颇有中国哈尔滨大桥的神韵。。当然这种设计是铁三角的旗舰耳机的招牌标志之一，我只能期待那天新出的旗舰能够放弃这种脑残的设计。
ON THE FENCE 其他
LOW LEVEL LISTENING: The W5000 sounds drastically improved at lower volume levels. No, I'm not trying to be funny by saying "the closer I get to not hearing it, the better" :). At exceptionally low listening levels, the sound broadens and becomes more natural.
在极低音量时，Ｗ５０００的声音听起来就没有那么差了。你不要误会我是在吐槽“ 只有在不出声时的声音表现才更好”（其实我就是这个意思）。在极其极其低音量下，声场变得更宽广，音色也更为中性：
POWERING: Audio-Technica produced an amp specifically designed to power the W5000. It is known as the HA-5000. I am told by some owners of this pairing that the sonic results are stunning. I have never heard this pairing, so I do not know. In my experience, I have found that the W5000 never loses its nasal, unnatural character despite which amp I choose to pair it with. Of the amps I've used, I have found that it sounds best with the TTVJ Millett 307a, but it still does not sound particularly good.
驱动： 铁三角提供原配西装耳放HA-5000. 一些烧友告诉我5K西装的表现令人瞠目结舌，但是我还没有听过西装的表现，所以无法评价。就我个人耳放搭配经验而言，换任何耳放都无法改变W5000捏着鼻子似的人妖声音；就我使用过的耳放而言，和TTVJ Millett 307a搭下来效果不错。可是还是远不能用好来形容。
CABLE: The W5000's cable is of a fairly high quality. However, I always prefer easily detachable cables. The W5000's cable is hardwired.
耳机线：质量不错。不可拆换。
FOR THE PRICE 性价比
F （F*ck)
I won't be giving out too many F's in this evaluation. Unfortunately, the ATH-W5000 is just insufferably nasal sounding to my ears. The drivers sound as though they are being restrained. Perhaps if it were an open-back design, the sound would improve quite a bit. At its price, I feel that every other full-size headphone I have heard outperforms it by leaps and bounds.
作为宽容的耳机大神，我一般不会给一副耳机评"F" .不幸的是，W5000的人妖声音让我实在无法忍受，好像就像捏着鼻子在吟唱一样。也许把耳罩拿掉，声音会变得好听一些。在这个价位，我听过的任何其他的全尺寸耳机都比这个强得多。

[ 本帖最后由 kevinsh 于 2012-11-9 11:52 编辑 ] 这个应该是最蛋疼的一篇听感了:lol 坐等铁饭出来辩护:lol 楼主就是一高级黑。
最冷的W5000只有在不出声的时候声音表现最好。我WTF, :lol :lol
[ 本帖最后由 kevinsh 于 2012-11-8 16:08 编辑 ] 可能是没搭配好吧。
[ 本帖最后由 idofwx 于 2012-11-8 23:34 编辑 ] 呵呵，或许是听音类型不合适吧··· - -贬的一文不值咯.... ;P 此人很喜欢中性呈现，那一定不会喜欢老铁的。。 欧美好像普遍不搭理老铁这种调音
&就我现在听过的二房来说，除了胆机，其他二房推老铁不能听……（胆机也就推的能听……）（当然我没听过西装）

看来对3kanv评价不错，谁翻译下 :funk: 我来翻译吧……搞定一半了 缺乏音乐(的文字) 确实有点黑的太猛了，个人从来没有喜欢过老铁的东东，可能听习惯了德系美系的耳机确实受不了老铁的耳机，但是也不至于被贬成这个德行啊，不过说句不好听的，这个5000确实够坑爹的，就在昨天还在飞翔听了一下这套西装，这么贵的耳机出这样的声音真是无语 :lol :lol :lol
