Who still so caught a fine Ohrenschmaus device (is officially no longer available!) Can really lucky. Bought it for the second time, because I had my first stupidly damaged itself. So now I needed a new !! I can only say: The price-performance ratio in this AKG is phenomenal. The sound quality outstanding for such a cheap part. Use it to mix down my music productions. Exceptional brilliance, soft deep bass, balanced mids - such a sound with such a buttery dynamics is usually only in higher price ranges at home. This headphone is super light and fits perfectly without pain - even after prolonged wear. A little 'warm ears' so you get - from foam and hot music of course, but who cares ?? My strong buy recommendation - would also give 7 ******* star, if that were possible ... :-))
