Come listen to what you've been missing with AKG k 240 headphones!

byfm_hunter Feb 23, 2001
50 Helpfuls 51 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Precision highs and lows, crystal clear clarity, comfortable.
Cons Perhaps a little pricey for the average audiophile.
Recommended it? Yes

I remember the very first time I used a pair of ?professional? headphones. I was at the house of a self-professed audiophile and I grudgingly slid the monstrosities over my head. Up until this point in my musical life, I had only used headphones that came pre-packaged with the half-dozen or so... Read full review »

AKG K240DF - the best reference headphones I know.

bymeatex z Aug 22, 2004
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros The best professional reference sound.
Cons High impedance, vintage construction.
Recommended it? Yes

This review is dedicated to the one and only AKG K240DF headphones - for some reason Epinions have no distinction between several types of 240 series' models.

AKG brand name is usually associated with hi-end studio microphones and headphones. While they still produce variety of lower-cost... Read full review »

Epic Fail. Do not be seen in public wearing these.

13 Helpfuls 14 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros The sound is quality.
Cons Wearing these makes you look like an idiot.
Recommended it? No

Some things are such of a cataclysmic failure, that they circle their way all the way back around to win. One example would be Buddy Holly's (and later, Elvis Costello's, and after him, Drew Carey's) glasses. Dorky though they were, the glasses were practically synonymous with the people...

Stylish Look, Great Bass, Clear Sound

byshmoman Sep 29, 2006
10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great sound, great bass, comfortable fit.
Cons Can't lay your head back while wearing them... No sleeping while wearing!
Recommended it? Yes

The first time that I got these head phones I got them for Christmas and I was a little worried, they didn't really look like the headphones for me. The headphones that I usually use were either ear buds, or the over the head kind. These head phones wrap around the back of your head and lay on top... Read full review »
