The construction is sturdy, the cups are comfortable and completely sit around ears. Sound quality is very very good. The coiled cable is an extremely nice addition. Bass response is very light. Some people may not like this. The semi-open design allows for a lot of leakage, both in and out.

Very comfortable headphones

I needed a headphone to play the guitar at night without waking up the family and neighbors. My main criterion is comfort, I can not bear long headphones in general. This is what attracted me to the AKG, I can wear long without it bothers me. It comes with two different pads for comfort.

"The Best headphones for anything...studio...audiophiles...home users...outdoor use"

Proven workhorse that you can wear for hours. Not really ipod friendly

I purchased this product for a bit of foldback on my Tascam M50 and I went for this model because it has been written up as commonly used by many of the working professionals. The thing to remember about these phones is that they are an openm type so they are not very good for using if you are...

Sound echoed and was poor.

Given other reviews, I was expecting at least a good product. I am not looking for phenomenal sound, just something reasonable that allows me to listen and not bother other people around me.

AKG K240 MKII

We see a fair number of AKG headphones here, but rarely models form the Pro side of the business, which is where these K 240 MK IIs come from.
Pros:
  • Comfortable
  • spacious
  • even delivery
  • don't leak as much as the fully open ‘phones
Cons:
  • Too soft to dig-up the finest details and dynamic nuances
  • needs a bit more punch
