I recently bought an AKG K240 Sextett from ebay (65 euros). They smelled of smoke when I received them, and the pads were a little worn, so I ordered a new set of pads (from Thomann Cyberstore) along with new foam sheets which they did not come with.
I was pleasantly suprised by the sound improvement I obtained by adding the foam and replacing the pads.
(in the above picture, the metal ring color look gold due to the lighting buth they are silver).
I have a couple questions :
- are there any velour pads that can be used with the K240 ? EDIT : question answered in this thread http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f4/new...r-pads-268918/ Anyone know where to purchase the K271 velour pads ?
- Unlike newer models, the Sextett's cable is not detachable. Is it difficult to replace the cable ? Is a cable upgrade worthwile ?
