Best bang for the buck!.......2007-12-25
Great sounding headphones and very comfortable. Bought these to replace my Sony V6's of 10 years (broken due to my nephew sitting on them), which were still in great shape. So, $150 was my maximum amount that I was willing to spend on a pair of headphones for home, since I already have my pair of Shure e5's for when I'm out-and-about. I decided on these after reading a whole bunch of reviews and after trying out several headphones (Sony V6's/MDR-V900's, Sennheiser HD-280's, Bose Triports), but the K240 stood out as the clear winner for me, even next to the more expensive K271's. The headphones are extremely comfortable and were made even more so when I added a set of Nice Cans headphone covers (the stock pleather ones got a little sweaty and sticky when I wore them for more than an hour). The suspension system is pure genius taking the weight and tension off the ears and putting it on the top of my head, even after wearing for 4 or more hours. Also, if the cord ever get's destroyed or develops a short, it can be replaced by unplugging the existing one and putting a new one on. As a matter of fact, each individual part can be bought from AKG and replaced if one wears out (which I highly doubt). All in all, after a month of use, these have completely left the V6's in the history books. As time goes on and the drivers loosen up even more, the sound gets better and better! They do need a little time to sound as good as their potential, like my Shure's, so have a little patience. I would recommend these phones to anyone, especially if using an ipod or any other low power audio device. Great phones and enjoy!
All about comfort!!.......2007-11-22
These headphones are extremely comfterable after hours of use, even if you wear glasses like I do. After watching movies for 5 hours, I forget I even have them on.
Another big thing I was worried about with the semi-open design was that it might leak out to much sound, and be annoying to my roomates. In a small, quiet room, if I turn them up really loud, my roomates can hear them a little. But with "normal" listening volume, they did not hear anything! This is great for people who don't want to disturb anyone.
The sound is realy something you fall in love with the more you listen to them. The quality is so clear, I can now hear parts of songs I never knew exsisted! Listening to orchastrel pieces, it really comes alive as I can now hear every finite detail of complecated pieces. Intially I thought the bass was lacking, but I find it is actually just more true to what it really sounds like. I actually find using a flat EQ produces the best sound, but if you like more bass, just change your EQ to bassbosster and it will provide very clear, strong bass.
They only reason I didn't give it a 5 star rating was because when I first got them the left side wasn't working. I played around with it a little, and it started to work again, but I'm afraid it could be a problem in the future. So far this has not been the case, but many people seem to have this problem, so I would use care with the phones.
Overall they are the perfect headphone, and highly recomended.
Good Build Quality and Open-Air Style Maximizes Sound.......2007-11-16
I have four pair of headphones costing between 20-50 dollars, including such brands as Sennheiser, Logitech, Sony, and Eton. They're all capable headphones but they're Closed-Back style, which, while keeping external sound out, is also harder on the ears and which, I've read, compromises sound. So for my ear safety and for a bigger sound, I opted for the AKG K24. Here's what I like: Good build quality, comfortable large ear gel ear cups, microjack fits in iPod without needing an adapter (true of all my other headphones). The sound is good, great even, but I wouldn't go so far to say they produce the "wow factor." However, be aware of the fact that I don't pump up the volume very loud because I don't want to blast my eardrums. Are they worth the price? That's a subjective question. For many who want to spend less on an Open-Ear headphone without compromising sound, I think most will be happy with the 20-dollar Audio-Technica ATH-MZX Open-Ear headphones.
Great!.......2007-11-07
I really love these, I use them for everything from editing music to playing Half Life 2, they have great response through all the ranges, even good bass, which is abnormal for Studio phones, but nice! 2 of the best features of these are the self adjusting headband (makes them very comfortable), and the removable cord (allowing you to upgrade your cord, get a curly cord, or a higher grade cable). I don't get sweaty ears wearing these, which is what I usually hate when vinyl covered ear pads, and they are comfortable enough to wear for long periods of time without taking them off-I've had them on for 6 hours or more some times. the cord is nice and nice, overall these were exactly what I was looking for in my headphone purchase.
tough to beat at the price.......2007-10-30
These are the phones to buy for 95 bucks. They shine thru the midrange and have a rolled off treble to deal with today's harsh recordings. However, the bass will distort if you turn them up with heavy rock. The circular earcups actually grab my ears on the extremities even though I have small ears. Otherwise, they are comfortable. These are better than Sonys of equivalent price, but if you want the bass to come thru at high volume and a more open and refined sound overall I would recommend the 60 dollar stretch to discounted Sennheiser HD580s.
