Expecting restock
One of the most affordable models of quality over-ear monitor headphones of a closed type. Differ in exact reproduction of an original sound without accents in bass or high-frequency area. In addition, they provide good detail and bright sounding of vocal parts. Designed for control / monitoring when working with sound in small home studios. Due to the relatively low impedance of 32 ohms, they can work with portable devices and various gadgets (smartphones, tablets, players). Perfectly cope with the reproduction of any music tracks of various directions and genres. The AKG K52 earphones feature a solid, classic design with a two-piece metal headband and specially soft padding for a comfortable fit. Large cups with large and soft ear cushions create an optimal clamping force that does not cause discomfort during prolonged wear.... To connect to an audio signal source, a long 2.5-metre round cable with a 3.5 mm mini-Jack and 6.35 mm Jack is used. The cable connection is one-sided and this length provides the sound engineer with complete freedom of action at the console. The moderate cost of this model makes it a desirable purchase for hobbyists and enthusiasts.

Model overview based on user reviews  
The AKG K52 headphones offer a mix of opinions from users. Many appreciate their comfortable fit and lightweight design, noting that they sit well on the head without causing discomfort. The sound quality is described as balanced and natural by some, with a clear separation of frequencies and a wide soundstage. However, others criticize the sound as lacking depth, with some users finding the bass either too overwhelming or insufficient. The headphones are praised for their good noise isolation and durability, though the non-detachable cable is a common downside. Overall, the AKG K52 is seen as a good value for its price, especially for those seeking budget-friendly studio headphones, but may not satisfy audiophiles looking for premium sound quality.

Quite a well-thought-out item that more than justifies its price.

Superbly slick, equal to natural sounds.
The fit is practically perfect, they don't press or fall off. The sound (a highly subjective matter to list as an advantage or disadvantage) is even, natural, without pronounced accents or dips: there are often moments when some sounds fall out of context (especially when watching videos), and it seems that their source is not in the headphones but somewhere in the room. It's hard to say why), but I liked that the signal to the right cup goes through the metal plates of the headband.
After half a year of use, no significant shortcomings have appeared. I am 110% sure that most "audiophiles" will not like them ))) because that's just their nature, or curse )))

For the money - just the BOMB
Gorgeous bottoms, the sound is light, does not press. Soundproofing is excellent. I didn’t hear the call of the mobile phone nearby on the table in these ears at work (5FDP -Wash it all a way). The cup size is the most
Flaws? On these ears? Do not make me laugh...

The sound is good, the bass is especially clear. The downside is that the pad (soft stroke) is not very thick, and the headphones sit tight. Pain in the ear canal may begin due to pressure, perhaps by the way I just have big ears :)
