Nice, but not exceptional

The look nice, the cord has a dual 3.5mm/.250" jack with a nice gold-plated threaded adapter (best setup I've seen yet for this) and a mini-XLR on the left can only. Comfortable, even on my big head. They don't quite look "pro"--maybe low-end pro.
Pros:
  • Good
  • even
  • complete sound at very good price
Cons:
  • Audiophile Grade "B" at best
  • appear to be made OK
  • but not exceptionally well

Ok, so I only spent 3 euros on these at a flea market. The catch was that the original stereo plug had been replaced and botched (all the cables were in the wrong place), so I had to re-solder them. After 10 minutes they were good as new(ish).
Pros:
  • Price performance ratio
Cons:
  • Not as good as the older versions
  • needs good amping

The AKG k240 Studio headphones are nothing if not phenomenal overachievers. They manage to be good in the studio, as well as in the home, and do so in a way that is effortless and refined.

A big boy in headphones. Good sound, good channel seperation, comfortable to wear. Flexible and yet very strong reliable construction. Very good value for the price I paid at Amazon UK. I am delighted to have acquired it and I hope others do too.

AKG K240 Studio review

The visual quailty is really good. It has a good strong construction. The sound quailty is amazing, the highs and mid/bass is astonishing now the low end is just there unless you use an headphone amplifier then it is all in your face with superior sound quailty.

" Warm sounding "

The AKG K 240 Studio headphones have been a part of my set up for 2 years now and they are still going strong. I have not had any problems with them from the day that I purchased them and they have been a joy to work with.

Makes me love music more.

The ear pads, though you can change them, start cracking with more use. The best pair of cans I've ever had. I love these headphones. I received them as a gift, so the average cost of around $100 did not really factor into this review, but cost aside, these headphones, I believe, are extremely worth...
