AKG K-240 Monitor Headphones Review

 

The K-240 Monitor headphones are the 600-Ohm version of the model line. During the years, there were several other -240 models released: K-240 Sextett (with additional six mini diaphragms inside the cups), Studio (the current 55-Ohm production model),...

Excellent value; the clarity required of professional monitor headphones, great for any

The headband's grip could be tighter

AKG K240S Headphone

 

The K240S is an odd beast. It's not hi-fi by any means. The bass is big, boomy, and not particularly well-extended. The highs are somewhat recessed and don't convey a whole lot of detail. The sound is akin to a fat black woman shaking her booty on the...

AKG K240S Headphone

 

I found these to be very overrated. I bought them expecting to 'groove.' Well, it was like trying to groove in quicksand. The bass is overwhelming. It is not like the tight, punchy grado type. It is slow and bloated. They definately need an amp. When I...

These headphones are great for home use and while they improve with amplification, they dont need it. At their price point they are a great place to start and you can built a very good hi-fi system around them. They are very similar in sonic character...

AKG K240S Headphone

 

The look and the build quality of these headphones are great. They have good bass and are easy to drive. Lacking a little in the mids but nothing like the tri-ports.

AKG K240DF - the best reference headphones I know.

 

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.

The best professional reference sound

High impedance, vintage construction
