I think at 200, hard to beat, his level I find excellent, very consistent everywhere, nothing seems to put forward, or treble a chouilla can be, not sure is very detailed, details are audible, or defects also (mp3 Cuckoo 64 / 128kbps), various instruments are well separated, the voices stand out well, really for the fan of the micro detail than I am, and treble worshiper, I think this is the best (still remaining in this price range). Spatialization is huge. I think this is an ideal headset for the classic, although personally I listen to metal and electro mainly.
Adding my headphone amp (Lake People G103) adds a little warmth, roundness, without affecting the rest.
Listed comfort is the top, very light, not used, does not heat, the drivers do not touch the ears, the foam is comfortable, it does not hurt to head (open headphones simultaneously), no need adjust the size of the banner, does not rely on the skull ...
Listed building, it made me look tough despite all plastic, the atria are interchangeable, the cable is detachable, but mini-XLR 3 branches, hard to find, light cable, which does not unravel, 3m, perfect for sedentary.
A fan of bass will not like I think, or should pair it with a e12 fiio, which adds a real surplus of bass, but lost by the same spatialization in treble.
Compare with SR325I Grado, the AKG is more neutral (but not 100% I would say, it remains the signature AKG, he must love), the Grado clearly puts forward the mediums, namely the voices and guitars but without releasing the bass and treble, the AKG is better on the treble I find more finesse. The grado is a superb headphones, front to make voice superbly well there's no denying it, the bass is very well transcribed, treble too, even though I feel that they are a chouilla back relative to the rest. Maybe a little less than in spatial AKG.
So hearts-hearts I want to say, according to the desire personally I prefer the AKG on some music, the Grado on others.
For cons where AKG puts a monstrous metal in Grado, the comfort, one side was a headset that can keep hours without problem, the other headphones that at the end of one hour becomes downright embarrassing, almost unbearable, because of pokey mosses and therefore glued to the ears of the drivers, the problem is greatly improved with the change of the original jumbo pads with pads (from GS / PS 1000, 60 more!), remains that the headset is not used enough and that the non-detachable cable is heavy, thick, and comes out on each side.
So the AKG 200, with all its qualities, I said out tickets without hesitation ....
