AKG K612 PRO AKG K612 PRO Open-Back Over-Ear Premium Reference Studio Headphones (Pack of 1) - (Pack of1), Wired

first impression,sounds tight.after one week used.i understand why it's the best value headphone!

Clear, accurate, analytical yet enjoyable. Very crisp, high fidelity. Only issue is a slight lack of bass response due to the open back designs. The bass is THERE, it's just a tad muted/quiet One con though is lack of removable cable.

密閉型は長時間使ってると疲れちゃうんで開放型が欲しくて購入。10時間くらい着けてても疲れませんでした。まあ開放型なので低音はあんまり出ないです。しかし中〜高音域は素晴らしい。買ってからずっと使ってます。

Got these in a Lightning sale over Christmas for about £70. They were worth every penny and more. Amazing clean sound. Good but not overpowering bass. Fairly comfortable, light weight, with a long cable. Build quality is good, not amazing, but for the price, even at £100 its what I'd expect. Warning! They will need an amp, most on-motherboard soundcards will not have enough power to run them at a good volume, although its quite possible dedicated soundcards will be fine. I don't believe they will work well on phones or portable devices without an amp. Personally I'd recommend the "SMSL SD 793II DAC" Headphone Amp, which is a great little DAC/Amp you can find for about £45. It needs a power point, so its not portable but this amp paired with the headphones gives a really fantastic sound. These are also open backed headphones which helps create the open soundstage these headphones have, it also means they leak sound, people will hear your music! And you can also hear what other people are saying, which isn't a bad thing, depending on the environment you are using them in. Bottom line: These are good audiophile quality headphones at a really affordable price. Take a look around the web for reviews, you'll find almost nothing bad said about them.

I was leery about buying these since I knew ahead of time that most are now made in China instead of Germany. I messaged the seller and he confirmed they would be the China version. I made the purchase anyway. These are made of plastic, sure. It did not detract from the sound quality one bit though. These K612's in my opinion are a must have headphone. Inexpensive for what you get and have superb sound quality. Big earcups, comfortable earpads, lightweight and wonderful sound. The only downside is that they don't have a detachable cable. If you are a gamer looking for a bad a$$ gaming headphone, look no further. A few things to keep in mind though. Make sure you have a good sound card. AKG are known for their mids and highs. If you want a little more warmth in your gaming, just make a couple slight EQ adjustments. I like bass, but don't consider myself a basshead by any means. So I have made a slight adjustment on my Sound Blaster Z's EQ and I must say, these put out some of the cleanest bass I've ever hear. They get very low and sound superb. The mids and highs, well, best I've heard. Crisp and clear. I play competitively and have been since the 90's (old school gamer here), these AKG k612's are almost like using a cheat in FPS gaming. The sound imaging these have will allow you to know exactly where the enemies are (by way of footsteps or any other sounds they make). I game with several people when playing competitively and am always the first person to hear footsteps and pinpoint where they are coming from. I highly recommend these for gaming. As far as music goes. Make sure your collection is in FLAC format or some other high quality lossless. MP3 doesn't cut it anymore. You hear all the imperfections of the compressed audio and it makes music sound terrible. If playing FLAC or something of the sort, your music will sound better than it ever has before. I listen to everything (except country) and these things perform astoundingly. (side note: I also bought a Schiit Magni to go along with these, as a friend on Head-Fi told me that they sound better with more power. My Sound Blaster Z has a 600ohm AMP. I DO double AMP these. I have volumes turned down in Windows and I have my Magni sitting around the 1 O'Clock postion. Swapping back and forth between the AMP and no AMP, I only notice a very slight difference, of course they will get louder, but the sound itself does have a slight change. The Magni is known for making sound "brighter" and it does, this is why I slightly adjust the EQ to offset this. But as far as sound quality goes, I do notice that with the Magni the overall sound gets a little cleaner. It may not justify the extra $100 to buy an AMP, I hear the Schiit Vali is better for the AKG line, but I feel this Magni makes enough difference to justify what I payed. Even if the difference is slight, it is there. The Amp is not necessary with a good Sound Card, but may be something to look into. I also have some Pioneer SE-A1000's coming in the mail, should be here by this weekend. I will compare them with these after I have them and will update this review.

WOW! Die AKG 612 Pro haben meine AKG 701 ersetzt, da diese leider einen Wackelkontakt haben. Der Wackelkontakt war Eigenverschulden das muss ich auch erwähnen. Ich will mich kurz halten, die AKG 612 Pro werden mit einem FiiO Kopfhörerverstärker betrieben. Bass, Mitten und Höhen sind meiner Meinung nach schon sehr gut von Werk aus. Ich verwende zusätzlich zum Verstärker noch das Programm SoundID Reference für Klangoptimierungen. Ich musste bei meinen 701er schon einige einstellen das die Höhen nicht so Präsent sind. Bei den 612pro musste ich lediglich ganz leicht die Bässe und Höhen nach oben drehen. 10 von 10 Klanglich! Ich kann diese Kopfhörer jedem Empfehlen der halbwegs Wert auf guten Klang legt, und wer etwas lauter hören will der sollte sich zu den 612 pro noch einen Kopfhörerverstärker anschaffen. Da diese Kopfhörer 120ohm haben, damit kommt wahrscheinlich ein Standart OnBoard Soundchip nicht zurecht. Sprich die Kopfhörer sind dann sehr leise und können kaum ihr Potenzial entfalten.
