Best headset for the purest of classical music
This is the best headset I have ever had in my life!! After I have used multiple bass heavy over ear heasets throught my life, even though I was always a classical music lover, when I put on these headsets, I felt that I have come back to my roots once again! I have never felt more nostalgic putting on a headset before! To me true music should always have more focus on the mid freqiencies and a more flat soundstage instead of having very high mids and treble. Apart from its crystal clear sound quality because of which there is great instrument seperation for studio and monitoring purposes, I love the headset due to its nostalgic golden looks, and its comfort, due to the semi-open and light weight body and push back leather head band(even though the leather ear pads tend to be a bit warm), with high quality 3m long cables. In short, these headsets are best for true music lovers (mainly classical & good sustain effect when plugged in to digital piano using the 6.3mm jack, especially for the main treble area were more emphasis is needed) but would be unsuitable for bass heavy rap tunes.

Best under budget.
Weight; Almost all AKG headphones are light weight, so no worries. Build Quality; Really better build quality, than it's comparators, though it is just hard plastic. Also, the velvet pads are soooo comfy Function Usage; 1. Best for studio recordings ; it's a closed back!! 2. The field emulation is quite great considering its price, so it's definitely considered for orchestra related music. 3. I'm not personally a drummer but my fellow people says it's worth it! 4. Detachable cable, so worthable for live sound (like field recording) Sound quality; Frequency range: The bass is not enough(feels even lower than flat ones), making it too dull. The mids and highs are arguably good. Clarity: The instrument isolation is every clear but lacks volume (compared with DT770 80 ohms) even after using a better DAC. Clarity further decreases when used in mobile systems (including laptops); tried on Dell G15 and Asus F15, both feels off. I don't personally like this use of mini XLR but, it's fine (locks perfectly and easy to attach and detach)

ONLY FOR PROFESSIONALS WHO WANT TO MIX AND MASTER AUDIO.
SO THIS PRODUCT IS ABOUT THE AKG K240. LET ME START FROM THE BUILT QUALITY, HANDLE WITH CARE FOR LONG TERM USE, IF IT IS A PHYSICAL DAMAGE YOU WON'T GET WARRANTY. THE SOUND QUALITY IS FLAT. HIGHS ARE CLEAR MIDS ARE GOOD BUT BASS ARE ENOUGH FOR YOU TO HEAR. THIS HAS AN ALMOST FLAT SOUND STAGE. I AM BUYING THIS FOR THE FIRST TIME AND THE FIRST PRODUCT I GOT DISTORTED TOO MUCH WHEN I INSERTED IN MY AUDIO INTERFACE BUT WHEN THE REPLACEMENT CAME I GOT AMAZED. THE SOUND WAS JUST AWESOME. WIDE SOUND STAGE, EACH ELEMENT ALMOST CAN BE IDENTIFIED IF THE SOUND YOU HEAR IS PROPERLY MIXED. RECOMENDATION: HEAR *HARRIS JAYARAJ TAMIL SONGS* IN YOUTUBE FOR CRYSTAL CLEAR SONGS. HE IS TAMIL INDUSTRY'S BEST SOUND ENGINEER TILL DATE. SO AS SAID IN THE TITLE THIS IS NOT FOR CASUAL LISTENING, BUT IF YOU LOVE FLAT SOUND IT IS OKAY. BUT NO SOUND ISOLATION AS THIS IS A SEMI OPEN BACK HEADPHONES. QUIET ROOM IS NEEDED FOR MIXING OR YOU WILL HEAR ALL THE EXTERNAL NOISE AND OTHERS WILL KNOW WHAT YOU ARE HEARING. SO THINK TWICE BEFORE YOU PLACE YOUR ORDER. LASTLY I BOUGHT IT FOR MIXING MY AUDIO AND THEY DO JUSTICE FOR THEIR PRICE RANGE. THIS NOTE IS ONLY FOR MIXING ENGINEERS. DON'T BLINDLY TRUST THESE HEADPHONES ALWAYS HAVE A CONSUMER GRADE SPEAKER FOR REFERENCE AS YOUR MIX WILL SOUND DIFFERENTLY IN EACH DEVICE. CHEEERS. Edit; It was not suitable for me i returned it. So try it with your audio interfaceinterface.

Great Sound Quality
Great sound quality 🥰 build quality is decent, can be improved, audio volume is slightly low out of the box, u need dedicated sound card to use it at full potential, overall great product

Flattest EQ ever. Great for studios and professionals.
A bit on the bulkier side but it's very comfortable. Comes with extra goodies like a cable, adapter and velour pads. Built is pretty solid. There is no bass. Flat EQ. Definitely needs to be used with an EQ.

Heaven for ears.. Mixing Legend since 1780s
SEMI Open for excellence sounstaging.. Flat response.. Low sub base response but crystal clear vocals so might not be suitable for all.. crystal clear highs, strong flat mids and deep bass(100hz plus) ...external Dac or pre amp recommended.. And if you can afford Sonar works reference app to eq the response for more responsiveness for sub /low bass..(35hz plus). . does my job done for mixing..Also not suitable for noisy environment so room treatment must..

I have a blackstar tube guitar amp and the AKG K240 pairs perfectly for practice session daily. Best part is that is is semi open back so the sound is crisp and well balanced without any processing most other headphones on the market do. The guitar Mids and high notes sound amazing. I also use the K240 to listen to music with my Ipod. The K240 headphone is super light and Ear buds are so comfortable that you hardly feel it on the head. Another great bonus is the long 3m cable and it easily pops out of the main head unit as due to its xrl connection

スタジオモニタースピーカーで聞いたときのような無理のないバランスの取れた音域とオープンエア独特の開放的な音が大変気に入っております。 非常にお手頃価格の優れた商品だと思います。

Ya existen reseñas muy buenas del producto, así que me limitaré a dar mi opinión: Sonido. Si lo que buscas son un par de audífonos que te permitan escuchar la música tal como fue grabada estos te servirán. Sin ser ingeniero en sonido, músico, ni audiófilo (palabrita muy popular recientemente), debo decir que sí soy un poco exigente con la música que escucho, y estos audífonos no decepcionan. Siento los agudos y los medios muy balanceados, nunca me han molestado las fluctuaciones como para tener que bajar el volumen, y los escucho bastante claros. Los bajos son otra historia. Estos sí se sienten un poco flojos, especialmente en algunos tipos de música, no los siento tan "ricos" como en otros audífonos ni tan profundos, pero eso para mí no es una desventaja. Al tener un sonido bastante plano me han permitido escuchar algunas sutilezas que no habría podido con audífonos de menor calidad. Por ejemplo, al escuchar dos interpretaciones diferentes de la misma pieza de guitarra puedo escuchar la diferencia entre ellas no solamente por la manera de tocar del músico, sino también por detalles como si está usando las uñas o los dedos para tocar, algo que si bien no me es importante, es interesante notar. Para géneros como rap, electrónica y metal no me encantan. Los bajos no suenan tan divertidos ni profundos y a mi parecer a los medios y agudos les falta un poco de "ataque" que hace muy disfrutables estos géneros en otros audífonos. Comodidad. Aquí flaquean un poco, la banda que se apoya sobre la cabeza es una tira de vinil un tanto gruesa pero muy flexible aunque sin nada de colchón, lo que los hace un poco incómodos después de varias horas de uso. Las almohadillas son grandes, rodean perfectamente mis orejas (que son bastante grandes) y no ejercen mucha presión a pesar de que uso lentes, sin embargo al ser de vinil después de alrededor de dos horas de uso causan que comience a sudar y tenga que dejar de utilizarlos por unos minutos. Cambiaría las almohadillas por unas aterciopeladas como las de los BD. Portabilidad. Como casi todos los audífonos de este estilo, no son NADA portables. Están diseñados para escuchar música en un lugar fijo, cuentan con un cable largo, son bastante voluminosos y no se doblan ni cuentan con un estuche para transportarlos. Si deseas utilizarlos en el transporte público, mientras caminas o peor, en el gimnasio o en bici, no son el producto para ti. Estética. Son negro con dorado, bastante llamativos. No me encanta la combinación de colores, de ser completamente negros me gustarían mucho más, aunque qué se le va a hacer, si comprara audífonos por estética hubiese comprado otra marca. Conclusión. No he probado mejores audífonos que me brinden el sonido (plano) y calidad que estos AKG. Me gusta como suenan, los puedo usar por periodos prolongados de tiempo sin que me lastimen y en fin, los pros sobrepasan a los contras por mucho. Si deseas adentrarte en el mundo de los audífonos "para audiófilos" me parece una buena entrada de bajo costo y buena calidad. Si quieres algo más "divertido" y no tan plano, puedes encontrar otras marcas por menores y mayores precios, en gustos se rompen géneros y no todos buscan máxima fidelidad a la hora de escuchar su música. Cómpralos, no te vas a arrepentir, y si lo haces, no gastaste 5k< en un par de audífonos que no utilizarás.
