Master & Dynamic MH40 Wireless review

The Master & Dynamic MH40 Wireless take all of the best parts of the original MH40s and make the package a whole lot sweeter for just $50 more. They’re at their best when you’re sitting in a comfortable chair and you’re able to appreciate the impressive detail and clarity these headphones offer. As long as you’re not a big-bass addict, they’ll delight the senses and set you apart from the plastic-cans crowd.

If you’re someone who is seeking out the best sound and most complete feature set (why wouldn’t you be?) available in a pair of $300+ headphones, there are other options you should be looking at instead — namely the ones that I listed above: Sony’s WH-1000XM3, the Bose Noise Cancelling 700, or Beats Solo Pro. The way that Master & Dynamic’s wireless MH40 look is their biggest asset, and that’s only worth so much if there isn’t much else going on inside.

There is the issue that it lacks the USB-C to USB-C cable you might expect, and they don't have active noise cancelling as you might want. Yet otherwise, there simply isn't anything bad to say about this new wireless version of the MH40. They look great if you are into that rugged, industrial style. They have amazing build quality and, surely most important of all, the have fantastic sound. So if you want solid audio in a great looking unique set of headphones —or even if you are just a huge fan of Master & Dynamic —the MH40 are highly worth investing in.
