Also , seems that nobody likes or have an idea about DT100, and i am wondering if we loose something here

Thanks UncleErik , i just show we share some ideas :) No info though about k271 here ... So since now the closest thing to ESL's was to me the k501 , that's why i always return to it !! It's not only it's character but the remarkable opennes that comes close to panels , i still like...

Harbeths are not perfect (what is?) , but they can resolve details even in the bass notes very good , especially the M30. I also love Triangles , wich are very coloured in comparison, but do they have fantastic timiming , pace and dynamics yet easy listening !! Anyway, it's a headphone's...

One of the reasons i liked k501 was the they reminded of LS3/5A ..

So Linn's Akurate 212 ?? Never listen to them but i bet they're good.What is that you don't like with Harbeth's ? Do you feel there is a  low treble peak with k271-272 as i suspect ??

EYEdROP, that sounds like my ESL 988 !!! Excellent at some points as the DT48 , limited dynamics though .. Nice and helpful description :)   I wish i could have a despcription like this about k271.  

RexAeterna, that's what i thought .. 240DF! But can;t find them new , can you compaire them to K271-272 ?? Any info about them ??

orby,   i was trying to say about timing, need to say many things about that , but my limited English would not help. I want new cans , and k501 it's not something i can find, also as much as i like them they had flaws , like peak lower trebles !!!  

Musical !! A terme that'so subjective !! I call musical what gets the notes good , they start and end at the right time. "Timing" !! Anyway , it's out of topic,articulation is something that adds to musicality i think , make you feel harmonics , especially vocals ! This is what i am...

Ooops !!! Sorry :/ i thought you said you just bought them :) You really think are better to DT48 ?

congrats !! how do you find them so far ? Any info about the phones above also ?

Ok, since there's no answer , forget the previews posts. I m towards these as i look for the best, "BBC" like mindrage. Any opinions ?

Hmm ..it seems that no one  knows anything ... Any info about their sound signature ?  

I 've lived with AKG k240S, K501,Sens HD600, DT440 Beyer and others but i only kept K501 and DT440. I am more into speakers , i own Harbeth SHL5 and ESL 988, so i am the 'midrage' guy who wants a 'flat' but also musical sound , as i only need the bass to follow in music. I broke the k501 and...

Dear Pire, Thank you for contacting AKG. The K 317 and the K 319 are identical regarding sound and technically as well. Kind regards Horst Werner AKG hotline hotline@akg.com I listened to both and yes,they do sound sound about the same

"anyway, K330 is a pretty bright IEM tbh" really ? i woulday that k317, i love them so far are on the dark side ...(just a bit ..)

SR60= 140 euros or more in Athens !

i don't get this!! Why AKG has a problem with it's stock in US ? Grado is a problem,not so,but still, here too (Greece) !

I ‘m listening to a new pair of AKG,the k317 buds for about 2 days. It’s my first earbud that I own , so it’s a new world for me. Phones I know well are the K501 (8 years). K240s ,k240m DT440 (2006), HD600 and have also listen to some others. The k317 as AKG claims is identical to k319...

Yes,that is what i know ..

Does anybody has both? What are the differences ? Which has the best midrage ?

ok, thanks again.., but i was talking about the K240m (monitor) .... don't know how much different is to Sextetts ...

thanks pataburd, is like saying is more musical when we say "moist" and seductive ?

Thanks, i have a Shanling CD-T80 I already have a k501,(needs service though),but i always want to know how does other people compaire them to k240m ..

What i like most is the midrage,when i have to make a decision about sound.. I think that either bass or treble has only to follow the music and not to scream for attention, they have to "help" the music come to the brain..and the music is the midrage.. Which one you think is the more...
