AKG K44 HEADPHONES

 

The AKG K44 are lightweight, moderately comfortable over-ear headphones that don't leak too much. Unfortunately, they're not versatile enough to use in loud environments or while doing physical activity. They're a bit cumbersome, and their sound...

Lightweight design. ; Low leakage.

Poor noise isolation. ; Weak, plasticky build quality. ; Subpar audio reproduction.

Consumer review (head-fi.org)

For £15 they're great. Sound harsh at first but soon settle down.

 

Great for the price. I use mine with a Muse TU-20 HP amp and they sound great together.

Very inexspensive nowadays, rich bass

Plasticky. But hey for £15.... meh

Fantastic headphones for the price.

 

I am getting back into playing guitar again. I have been away from it for nearly ten years. When I was first playing, I usually played through amps and occasionally through headphones - the headphones that I had were so bad that I usually preferred the...

Inexpensive, high quality, clear and accurate response

Same as any other closed ear headphone, can get warm on the ear over time

AKG Acoustics K 44

 

For 25 € I bought these cans for my home computer, just to practice and listen my Cubase recordings of my bass, guitar and synths via my Behringer mixer. They are very comfortable to wear, fit firmly and tightly against my head. Maybe that's one reason...

AKG Acoustics K 44

 

I have had these headphones for about a year now and have used them heavily for my home recording projects. While mastering songs I might spend 4-5 hours with the K-44s on and I have never experienced any discomfort. The sound they produce is bright...

Decent set of cans

 

I bought these so I could play on the computer at home without annoying everyone. They were perfect for that job: reproducing often complex soundtracks and with plenty of bass. Best of all they can be worn for many hours without the need to take them...

Comfortable, even after several hours, good sound

Don't seem to be able to do both loud and deep bass

AKG Acoustics K 44

 

These are an extremely comfortable pair of cans, I've worn mine for many hours at a time and still been comfortable. They go low, and have no difficulty pelting out the bass frequencies where my speakers sound either feeble or give up on. However, turn...
