The AKG brand produces a wide range of high quality musical products. The K271 MKII headphones are a mid-low-cost model for studio monitoring.

So that nothing distracts from work

"Ears" sit comfortably. They don't press. The headband is adjustable, the detachable cable does not tangle, as it is twisted, and has sufficient length (3 m) for sound engineer operations within the workplace. There is also a spare straight cable included. In addition to the traditional koszham ear pads installed, there are velor ear pads. To keep the ears from sweating from prolonged use, it is better to put them on immediately.

Apparently, for greater reliability of the design, the manufacturer decided not to make it foldable, but the bowls to be swivel, which added inconvenience during operation. You can put up with them, but this fact will repel some from buying.

treasured button

The headphones have a useful auto-mute feature. When you remove them from your head, the headband lowers and presses a special button. This is very convenient when you need to quickly switch from headphones to external monitors. The cable does not have to be removed from the socket.

Alignment to the middle

Since the model is designed more for monitoring than for listening to music, its sound is so detailed that it even seems flat. The bass is heard clearly, but it's not the kind of bass that will "heap". The predominance of the middle frequencies of the upper range is noticeable. High, even, without peaks.

The headphone impedance is 55 Ohm, although it belongs to the category of low-impedance in-ear monitors, it is better to work in them through a good sound card or amplifier. Then the stage will be as open as possible.

The AKG K271 MKII is made in China, which is why the $150 price tag doesn't seem high given the specs. But the rustic design and unconvincing build quality play a minus.
