HD-662 : Nice Headphones for monitoring

I have to admit that I already own an AKG K-271 and only needed the Superlux HD-662 for monitoring purposes. I really like the concept of AKG's self-adjusting headband, so I gave Superlux a try.

Actually the headphone is not as comfortable as the AKG. I have to put it off once in a while in big sessions because after, let's say, one hour the pressure can require a lot concentration. So I think the whole actually just looks the original but doesn't give you the feeling of it. This is but kind of what I expected.

About the sound I can say that they sound a bit more HiFi than actual studio headphones. Especially the high frequencies don't have a nice resolution, so I wouldn't reccomend them for mixing purposes. But for monitoring they work great. Also the closed design makes things easier in your home studio - you don't get that nasty headphone bleeding into your recordings.

All in all, in comparison to the price Superlux achieved, a good pair of monitoring headphones!
