K-271 MKII : Loud!

11 years ago

In these you can play LOUD without them cracking up. Off course depending on the power of your headphone amp. A very nice feature is the way they cut out the sound when they're not on your head since then there won't be any phones lying around at full blast leaking into overdubs etc.

Soundwise they are a bit on the honky side for vocal recording but for drums they are perfect because of the serious isolation.

Not really to use for recording vocals because of a slight lack of high frequencies compared to the AKG 240's , for example but when you need volume they's da shiit. ;-)
