Ouch.... blink.gif How on earth did so much plastic break in such a catastrophic way..
Seems to be even weaker than shure's headband material (considering how thin it is)

I don't get how AKG possibly could let this plastic design slip through. It doesn't take a genious to see that this design will break very easily. The cups are large and big and above that we have this point with only thin plastic frame. Of course it will stress the hell out of that plastic when putting them on/off your head.

 

And these are "DJ headphones"? DJ headphones are meant to be durable, that's like priority #1 you find when listening to DJ headphone reviews. That design is so full of fail. Had it been all aluminium it had been fine.

This is so disappointing seeing as how the K550 is built like a tank. frown.gif
