well, not really.
i owned a pair of K401 for about a month before going back to the HD580s. to me, the K401 looked and sounded like a cheap toy (i can just see team AKG getting their flame-throwers out
).
the HD580s are in a different class. they are simply the best headphones i've ever heard (i've heard the grado 125, ety er4-p and the akg K401). bass is great and the highs are not as bright as most. construction is solid and the comfort level is high.
go for the HD580s!
Originally posted by violeta88 I'm looking for tight, moderately punchy bass, deep bass extension, a smooth, articulate midrange, and a non-bright, non-rolled off treble. I'm just wondering if the 401's have these qualities. |
