K-52 : Good live monitoring & home studio all-rounder

7 years ago

Don't be fooled by the photos - these headphones offer great comfort even though their fit is rather on the snug side.

I'm using them for monitoring my live EDM productions in small bars/clubs where they get abused and knocked about all night long - all the while being transported within a case full of other audio accessories - and they've withstood all of this abuse with flying colors.

Great value for money - they get the job done with appropriate levels for monitoring in rooms of 40-50 people without being overwhelmed by the PA.

In terms of sound quality, they're quite adequate for my purposes - although a bit bass-heavy.
