Excelent

I use it for home playing through headphone out of an amp and works great with great definition even on complex sound structures like distortion with modulation.

Wonderful!

Perfect cheap headphones for studio use.

You can easily mix on them if you know how :)

Heritage model, bit cheap touch wise, but for 55 eur you cant go wrong with them.

good and affordable

For the cost of these phones I think I would have to spend an awful lot more to be able to improve on the sound quality there good.

I can ware them for an hour or so at a time so they cant be in any way uncomfortable, nice long cable too. Good Choice.

Great budget headphones

I've been using AKG K-701's for several years now, for listening to music, and was looking for something in addition to practice guitar with and to take along on travels. The AKG K-240 offers excellent sound quality at the price point and is very comfortable to wear. It truly is a very light set of headphones - Not much in the sense of luxury and some of the materials look a bit cheap, but decently made nonetheless.

Really happy with the natural sound they project which is much better than expected at this price.

Best headphones so far

Fit is snug and the sound is brilliant. I am using for a Yamaha electric guitar. I was using some "standard" headphones previously now my "real" accoustic sounds boring.

Nice headphones for mixing

Nice, clear and comfortable headphones for mixing and nothing else really. These don't isolate at all (open back). The bass is almost not there but it is good when you hear it.

So good it's a steal

Neutral sound the way I like it, light, very comfortable for ear and lobes so I don't tear it apart with my earring; I am a huge fan of the jack adaptor as well. Overall quality good, though it does look a bit cheap, but hey... for this price it's way more than enough.

A classic headphone

My previous pair of AKG K240s broke after 38 years. I bought a new pair, to recapture the classic sound and comfort that they provided.

Feather in weight, neutral sound

They feel very neutral while checking the mix, you don’t feel the influence of exagerated lows or highs.

Just perfect!

You really don’t need more than this.

They are an industry standard for something.

Greatest customer support.

This phones is half-closed, so you hear sound from outside as well.

They have leather ears, fits good. I use them for recording and you do not tired within 3-5 hours of using. Sounds good as well. Best choice for first meeting with professional equipment and recording. Excellent price for this quality.

Impressed!

I was genuinely impressed with these headphones! Great sound and sturdy! i wore for hours with no discomfort in my ears or head!

The only "problem"-albeit a minuscule one- i have is that hair are sometimes caught between the tiny space between the metal of the casing and the plastic arm.

Other than that, my mind was blown!

Best headphones I ever had

I may not be the most experienced person in relation to evaluating studio headphones, but I used a lot of different headphones in my life and these are the best I ever had.

I use these with Zoom G1 Four, for silent guitar practice, and I prefer this to a cheap amplifier. This is basically everyone one needs to practice guitar, great multi-effects device and a pair of great sounding headphones.

I particularly like that I can replace the cable if it's broken, which happens often on headphones.

They are very comfortable and I don't feel any discomfort wearing them for hours. I like that they are semi-open so I'm not completely isolated, and can still hear if someone is calling me.

I don't have any cons to these headphones, and I feel the price was great (they were discounted at 55 euro).
