I was looking for a secondary (or rather tertiary) headphone to use for really bad and harsh recordings. These can contain great music so I was looking for something warm and not too detailed. Have seen the new K301 Xtra described so.
I found that AKG has made some changes in the model line. Some are discontinued as the old K301, K270 and K401.
K501 and K1000 are still in the catalogue. This infomation was collected from the AKG homepage.
The new model K301 Xtra has the Varimotion diaphragm technology used in the more expensive models, impedance is decreased from 120 to 55 ohm and sensitivity seems to be increased but they use differents specs for the old and new model. Anyway sensitivity is speced as 102 dBV.
The headphone is blue and has a 3 m cord made of 99.99 % oxygen-free copper with mini and 1/4 jacks.
Price seems to be around 130 Euro.
