I bought my AKG 240's when they were new on the market in 1975 or '76. I still have them and they work fine. The passive diaphragms were one of the main selling points. I have always loved the open clean sound and was disappointed to learn that the headphones that bear the name today are a different design. I just got a pair of K701's hoping they could recreate some of the magic I felt with the old 240's.
