When streaming, recording or gaming puts both monitoring and voice capture in your hands, the Audio-Technica ATH-M20xSTS streaming headset brings both functions together in one streamlined setup. Built around technology from Audio-Technica's M-Series monitor headphones and 20 Series microphones, the ATH-M20xSTS pairs 40 mm drivers with an integrated cardioid condenser microphone for accurate playback and clear communication. Its closed-back design supports focused monitoring, while a lightweight build and breathable mesh earpads help maintain comfort during extended sessions. A detachable 3.5 mm TRRS cable connects directly to compatible consoles, and included USB Type-A and Type-C adapters extend plug-and-play connectivity to PCs and mobile devices.
40 mm Drivers Provide Balanced, Detailed Monitoring
The ATH-M20xSTS uses 40 mm CCAW voice-coil drivers tuned for flat frequency response, giving streamers and content creators a balanced reference for monitoring music, dialogue and game audio. A 15Hz–20kHz frequency response covers deep lows through detailed highs, while the closed-back design and elliptical earcups provide acoustic isolation that helps keep important details audible. This monitor-focused performance makes the headset equally suited to livestreaming, podcast production, gaming and other applications where reliable playback matters.
Cardioid Condenser Microphone Keeps Voice Capture Focused
An integrated back-electret condenser microphone uses a unidirectional pickup pattern to focus capture on the user's voice while reducing surrounding sound. The flexible boom maintains its position near the mouth for consistent pickup as you move, and flipping the boom upward instantly mutes the microphone without requiring a separate control. With a 50Hz–20kHz microphone frequency response, the ATH-M20xSTS provides clear, detailed voice capture for streaming, podcasting, gaming and online communication.
Flexible Connections Support Consoles, Computers and Mobile Devices
A detachable 6.6' cable terminates in a 3.5 mm four-pole TRRS connector for compatible gaming consoles and other devices, while included USB Type-A and USB Type-C adapters provide additional connectivity for computers and mobile devices. When connected through an adapter, the ATH-M20xSTS supports digital audio resolutions up to 96kHz/24-bit for microphone input and 384kHz/32-bit for headphone output. At approximately 8.3 oz. without the cable, the Audio-Technica ATH-M20xSTS headset combines this flexible connectivity with breathable mesh earpads and a lightweight design intended for comfortable use through extended streaming, production and gaming sessions.
