I can help you with that. There are several K240DF - EP model from 1996, an LP model from around 1998 and various revisions in between.I know that there were multiple versions of the K240DF, but does this look right to you guys?
- The first model had six large openings, three with white paper, three with black paper. Black K240 Sextett plastic covers behind the paper. Black paper on a modified K240 Monitor driver (just two rear holes closed with glue, but 100 DM more!).
- The "later" version had only black paper but six smaller openings. Again, the black paper was on the driver.
- The last version in the early 2000s had slightly smaller holes than before and thinner black paper. But completely open driver without paper over it.
The new K240 Studio from 2004 had white paper as in your case. So you got one of the latest DFs that last existed in 2004, which was even built with parts from the newer K240 Studio. Such "Frankenstein headphones" really exist, also from the AKG factory. Since the DF has improved with each revision, so I think you have the best and newest DF.
Can you show the original packaging completely? I have never seen an original DF box.
