    AKG 375 vs Yamaha-EPH 100 vs Audio Technica ATH-CKM1000

      Does anyone have info on the AKG 375? AKG is coming off their well renowned K3003 and the 375 is supposedly their 2nd flagship. Are these similar to the Yamaha EPH-100 in terms of sound? Are the CKM1000 worth the price? I am a huge sucker for AUdio Technica and can't seem to distance myself...

    AKG GHS-1=K-81 Minus X-Bass Foam Plus Microphone

    ...have rather strangely made it here. As a gift.   They look like this:       And they're - wait for this - a gaming headset built around the K-81 core. There's no mistake whatsoever, the square apertures in the driver grille and the typical K-81 "bass, low midrange, midrange, some...

    Beware AKG's return policy in Germany

    Just giving a heads up here.  I purchased a pair of AKG K550 cans on Saturday from a local (Frankfurt, Germany) authorized shop.  The left can exhibited a rattle when I tested them using low freq. sweep tones.  When I went back to the store with original receipt I was told that the only option...

    AKG K241 - 'Sticky' driver only starts playing on high volume

    My vintage AKG K241 'last sextett hybrid' has a 'sticky' driver.   It seems that when it stops playing for a few minutes the driver gets 'stuck' and will only start playing music again if the song has considerable bass at moderate volume, or I turn the volume up quite high for a moment...

    Possible Rare Headphones?

    Hey Everybody. I recently bought a nice new pair of cans the AKG M 80 MkII Stereo Headphones. Even though Im new to the realm of audiophiles I think this pair is nice starting point.

    Why do vocals on the AKG K540 sound so bad?

    They sound way too recessed and S words like snake sound way too sharp, my $15 headphones sound better than this piece of crap, I've burned them in for like 3 hours now but they still sound like crap, I can't return them either because of the poor build quality they're broke already :S.

    I'm looking for an updated version of an old AKG headphone.

    I bought the AKG K26P (some 7 or so years ago) from Headroom for $30. I believe ( a few years later) it was renamed the AKG K414P and was still selling for around $30. A friend of mine really likes the sound so I was looking for a new pair for her. I was wondering if anyone here knows what “AKG”...

    K601 driver same as K501?

    Does anyone know if the K601 shares drivers with the K501/500?  Just wondered due to the fact they are both 120 ohm and the 701 are lower.  Thought maybe the 601 uses the older driver and is a tweaked K501?  Not that this would be a bad thing of course.
