Great soundscape
Very accurate for mixing, makes casual music listening enjoyable.
Insanely comfortable and fits on any size head


good headphones
I have the older version from the 90s without the replicable cable, great sounding, very warm and crisp. Very comfortable too!

A Classic
I always use these headphones in the final process of my mix. It sounds really boring and flat but that's exactly what you want. Think of these as the headphone equivalent of the famous Yamaha NS10's.
If your track sounds good on these things, it sounds good everywhere.

Classic and always accurate
I bought these 10 years ago when I was going to school for music business and was taking an engineering/production coarse. They are still some of the highest rated and most popular headphones in their price range. I highly recommend getting a pair. The only drawback is the cable will most definitely need replacing and you MUST order the replacement from AKG.

Nice & affordable
Affordable set of headphones. Doin' well over here. Easy on the ears. Still can hear your surroundings easily if you keep it set to a reasonable level. Protect your ears!

Blew me away
The first time I had put these on my head, I felt like I had been lied to for years. Before then I had been using Audio Technica ATH M30x's, and I never quite realized how inaccurate they were. Now that I have these bad boys, I can hear my music with more clarity than ever before, and feel like I have a reason to reach for them while I'm mixing.
Wonderful inexpensive headphones
My first nicer pair of mixing headphones. I use them more for recording but overall I love them. I have the pre china fabricated ones (ie germany) and they are a ton better.

great for recording
Reliable, comfortable, and totally accurate. Their unique semi-open design and highly efficient transducers provide you with extremely wide dynamic range, breathtaking detail, and phenomenal sensitivity.

Stupid Good Price
Probably the best set of semi closed monitoring headphones. Accentuates mids and allows highs to pass through. 55 ohms so it will require a headphone amp.
