AKG K 240 Semi-Open Studio Headphones

The price was so much lower than everyone else's that I almost didn't dare buy it. It turns out that it's the real deal! I've owned a couple of these headphones throughout the decades and it's my favorite for editing music.

my 2nd pair. not that the first pair was bad they still work good. I just wanted two , one for a friend. The AKG 240 is a steel, for the cost.

I was insecure about going semi-open or closed. I like to listen the sound quality over high volume and bass! Perfect fit!! worth 10 times what I paid for these.

I bought them last week & the package came in 2 days. I use these headphones for mix n mastering. The wire also works for the k240 MKII headphones. Will probably buy a new pair of the MKII's. THANK YOU AKG FOR SUCH A GREAT PRODUCT AT SUCH A GREAT PRICE.

Purchased these a week ago to replace a pair of other headphones that had come to the end of their useful life. I owned the original model way back in the 1980s and thought that the new MK-II model would be worth a try. Compared to what these replace, the bass seemed rather too full, but I listened to some old recordings by Grace Jones and Robert Palmer and Steely Dan, to be sure that all was okay. Very surprised and impressed with the level of accessories that these phones come with: Spare lead and ear cushions, along with the 1/4" adapter. Also appreciate the light weight and the comfortable feel. An insignificant amount of acoustical leakage from the semi-closed design.

Just received my AKG K240 headphones. Very imprese. Hearing sounds in my music I have not heard before. AKG makes the best headphones, I am convinced!

I use these headphones for mix n mastering. The wire they come with also works for the K240 MKII headphones as well.

Great. Bought them years ago, still got them. I like AKG, they're the best. Good sound, clean, good product reliability. Comfy. They look nice.

They are easy to use, comfortable. Audio is a little washed out but that is not a problem for me. I use them to cutoff my speaker system while recording self in Mixpad. Don't need a super pair like Bose for that.

I have been using AKG headphones for over 30 years, and still have my first pair of 240 Monitors in service. Unfortunately, The last two pairs purchased a 240 MKii Studio, and a set of 271s, both broke at the plastic block where the bolt captures the ear cup. The plastic compound is now very brittle, unlike the old material, and the size of the block is far smaller in dimension.
