Expert review by : What Hi-Fi? (whathifi.com)

AKG K540 review

 

The stylish AKG K540 look nice but they lack openness, detail and dynamics

Serious but stylish design ; semi-open design lends flexibility ; reasonably detailed

They lack the detail and openness of the best headphones at this price

We like them, but dedicated portable or dedicated hi-fi cans will get you better sound

AKG K540 Stereo Headphones Review

 

The least expensive model in the test tries to bridge the gap between home and mobile use.

Neutral and detailed sound ; Well thought out design ; Solid build

Some limits to performance with high resolution files ; Doesn’t fold down to a smaller size ; Some listeners may want a more exciting performance
