I've tried a bunch of AKGs, but since I haven't found "the one" headphone I am still looking for suggestions. I've tried a few, but some AKGs are harder to find than others, so I know I'm not done yet. I especially like the K240, K240DF, K401, K501, K270S, and K340, but sometimes I get tired of listening to the same headphones all the time since none of them are "the one".

I have a few criteria that must be met for any other phones I'm willing to try: (1) it has to be AKG, (2) it has to cost less than $2000, (3) it has to sound good to my ears

They are not in my sig but I have also tried the K701 and K1000, and they don't meet all of my criteria so please do not suggest them. Any other suggestions are very welcome! I know there are still a lot of AKGs I have not heard yet.

Thanks in advance.

Fitz, we don't have your ears :-/ What sounds good to your ears? Plus I'd imagine thats pretty much the entire worthwhile AKG line right there >.<

No I just did not find it on the line of green quite right away, numbers started getting blurry pretty fast ^,^ It was K# K# K# K# K# K(insert brain meltdown here).

Although can't hurt to go and check.

Do you accept Beyers with artifical AKG logos on em? xD

Maybe I should remove the K's?

I'll go check to make sure my K340 is ok.

Then it would look like a credit card number. And I would prolly try to buy something with it too.

Thats some very cold looking music, that does look like k340 type of music.

I'm sorry, did you just say you wanted MORE AKGs? Wait, let me re-phrase that. You want suggestions on AKGs you haven't tried or don't currently own?

Yes, the K240 music is more orange, which is why I listen to them more.

Yes. I want to know which are more important to find than others, so I can try the better ones first.

Are you sure there even exists an AKG phone you haven't tried?
