AKGK52 Headphones

Second time buying this item, but first time buying them here. Gave it as a gift for my cousin who had a lot of records but was using small headphones. She liked it a lot.

No tuve problema alguno, el producto cumplió según esperaba.

These are the best closed back headphones I've run across for the money with good bass, smooth sound throughout the range,and no particular coloration above the bass to the highs. The only two drawbacks would be that for closed back headphones, the isolation isn't the best, especially for smaller heads, and the overall sound character isn't as airy and open sounding with that almost laser imaging that can be achieved with the open backs, which would be at least twice the cost for those for such tonal balance as these. Sensitivity is also decent and not hard to drive with various headphone amps.

I use the headphones to plug directly into my bass guitar

The headphones are high quality for the price, and work in all of my situations like recording or live mixing for concert singer vocals. Highly suggest !

These headphones exceeded my expectations in terms of audio quality for the price. I normally use open back headphones and I've spent way more than I did on these. These are so affordable! I needed closed backs for work so I don't disturb my officemates listening to music. I've been listening to these all day and I have to say these are awesome! Very much a Vish shape sound signature in terms of frequency response. They are heavy on the bass and have decent treble. A very fun experience. They have nice sparkle. Beware of listening fatigue. These are intense.

For my ears, these are too peaky in a part of the midrange, and it fatigues me, almost with any recording. I'm rating this from listening to YouTube plugged into a 2020 MacBook Air, which has pretty good sound. And YouTube's sound tends to accentuate more the lower tones, so it's somewhat of a disappointment that the peak in the midrange on these is a little too much for me.That said, they are extremely comfortable. I actually use them when I work online doing transcription in a Starbucks that blasts their music, so the sound isolation is quite good. And for transcription, hearing poorly recorded vocals, they're excellent.It's just that they're too much midrange in a delicate area and it causes listener fatigue, at least for me, when I'm listening to music on them. I much prefer the vaunted Panasonic Headphones On-Ear Lightweight with XBS RP-HT21 (Black & Silver), which, at 21,000+ ratings, still receives a 4.5. They sound better than this $50 headphone, on my particular ears. Everyone's ears are different.But this is a very solid headphone, very sturdy, I carry it around in my car for transcription work. It's just that I don't like it so much for music. That peaky midrange, ugh. Tires me out. Your mileage may vary.

These headphones are the best bang for the buck. I have been using them for years. They truly give you the best sound for recording and practicing when you are saving money, etc. I went online and I could not find them, except here.
