What customers say about "Features"
AKG K812 Pro Superior Open-Back Over-Ear Reference Headphones
- Straight out of the box, and based on looks and build quality alone, this is my new favourite.
- The detachable wire on the headset allows for safe transportation, so nothing it damaged when putting it in your bag or case.
- It's very comfortable to wear, one of the most comfortable headphones I've tried.
- The sound quality is excellent as you expect from a AKG product.
- Highs are unbelievably crisp... I cannot express how good the highs sound.
AKG K712 Pro Open-Back, Over-Ear Premium Reference Class Studio Headphones
- I much prefer these to the Q701/K702s which I find too bass light and with exaggerated left/right stereo.
- The memory foam ear cups are large and spacious and thanks to the open back they are very breathable.
- These are excellent, they've become an integral part of my studio setup, and they're incredibly comfortable so they can be worn for hours.
- First off, these headphones are so comfortable you almost don't notice them if it wasn't for a little bit of warmth on the ears (not discomforting at all).
- The standard orange cable is a bit too long for my setup so I'm using the coiled cable which fits my needs perfectly.
