Awesome

AKG products rock and these headphones are no exception. They do an exceptional job when tracking and I've even used them to master the final product. When I'm not using them in the studio, I sometimes use them just to listen to music and relax. Very comfortable to wear and they don't fatigue your ears. They are light weight and adjustable so will fit on just about anyone. The clarity and frequency response across the entire audio spectrum, is simply outstanding. You can hear things in your tracks that you may find hard to hear thru your monitors, which allow you to clean up dirty tracks or boost frequencies. I would recommend these to anyone, whether it be a hobbyist just wanting a great pair of headphones to listen to music or to the professional studio engineer. You can't get this quality for the price either. I've owned headphones that cost nearly twice as much and these hold their own every step of the way. Be careful though, these sound so good that they can be very addictive and you may find yourself wearing them all the time!

Very cheaply made

This are very cheaply made. I sent these back, paid a little more and purchased the Audio-Technica ATH-M70X headphones. What a world of difference in quality and sound!

    these things are incredible! out of the box you get the headphones(obviously) 2 chords straight or curled, and two sets of ear pads, velvet or leather. these are the most comfortable head phones i have ever worn.. and the sound is incredible. alot of reviews complain about how the bass is weak on these, i they are wrong. it has just the right amount of bass. not to much, not to little. these head phones will give you the true sound of what you are listening to, unlike some other head phones. if all your looking for in a closed back head phone is bass, then buy beats or something that will overwhelm you with bass. these head phones are comparable, give you the true sound of your listening to.

  • Solid choice for quality sound

    The only reason I bought these was to listen to my music and it was well worth it. The sound quality is excellent and they are super comfortable. I'll never go back to using ear buds.
