Okay so today my NEVER USED, BRAND NEW AKG K141 Monitor finally arrived. As soon as I opened the shipping box, the iconic "Cardan" de luxe box is visible with AKG K141 below. I am told that these have the Sextett driver (I have no idea what that means) and my gosh these look good. It comes with everything intect, even the cardboard that keeps the headphones together is untouched. This really is the real deal. No previous owners, never used, and never touched AKG K141s. These sound really good... Like I mean it... It's REAL good for what I paid ($39.99 US). The sound feels a little old-school... I don't know how to describe it... It feels and sounds original. With that said, these are BRAND new so there is still a burn-in period. I gotta say... For a 20 year old headphone (I'm estimating?) it sounds remarkable. BTW the earpads feel completely fine. Only problem was the sponge filter was falling to pieces so I removed it and replaced it with another piece of thin sponge I aquired from my old Jays V-Jays headphone pads. Don't know if I should do a review or not... Any other K141 owners?
