K-240 Studio : Classic headphones

4 years ago

I've been using these headphones for five years now. They never let me down. I bought them because I heard engineers used exactly these headphones to mix many classic albums.

These are the only pro level headphones I ever used, so my experience is limited. To me, they sound flat, with no bass or treble enhancements. They are half open, not isolating, so the sound still goes out into the room, and the sound of the room goes in. To me this works, but if you want sound isolation, maybe look elsewhere. I use them for bass guitar, and the low end seems properly reproduced to me. Very sturdy, very comfortable headphones. Recommended.
