So I'm not a pro it is important to note, I make music for my pleasure "avancquot amateur, I do not know what the headphone worth" studio pro ", but for my use Mao (fruity loops and pro tools) and multimedia (big player fps) this headphone is top notch. It can be long and trs comments unreal good slap in the headphone "kiling sprreeeeeeeeeee." fruity To pro tools and it is a joy, I can finally compose songs that ring true, I will not tell you the mediums are too low, the bass too much ... it's not my mtier and I n 't know what I can tell you is that the sound seems neutral (m-audio sound card rvolution) and I have composed a really beautiful sound when switching on the hi-fi, frquences seem all their places, I have no surprises. So to finish in round use and it's top home studio, using Pro I do not know.

PS: important with 7 years of violin derrire me I at least ear for music and the sound is unmistakable neutral, a little low but nothing rdhibitoire and if like me you use it also for the Multi-Media dia occasional (game video, dvd) on the contrary more.

It is the only headset I've found that allows me to link mao (I bought it for when a same base) and use multimedia correct.

Used in the studio before having Beyer and Sennheiser!
No presence of the media, no linearity in the headphone world famous!

In short:
The K240 has a worldwide reputation for 25 or 30 years ...
It is found now available from Baker to 100 euros or less ...!
What I think:
No presence of the media, no linearity!
I do not understand the interest for this headset outside the comfort!
Reputation why:
The sound engineers rarely use the headphones in the studio (it tires the head, ears and mind! Not care and the mix up!) Is just a tool to listen to a detail, a tail reverb example
The headphone is used in closed studio by musicians in the cabin, and there, the K240 is actually rather good because very comfortable and not aggressive (for lack of media)
Yes to the musician, not for the sound engineer!
A small Sennheiser HD25 made in Ire is much higher linearity and relatively close to the monitors that the 4412 JBl pocède!

Finally say that the headphone must be close to tapping that was, provided only that they are to really listen linear (a piano is a piano, a trumpet a trumpet and a Rhodes Rhodes ... but there is also the Pianet T Hohner ...

For how long have you been using it? 20 years
Did you try many other models before getting this one? virtually all
What thing do you like most/least about it? loyalty
What is your opinion about the value for the price? very good
Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ... bin yes

it is a very good headset to control the taking, you just know it well, this headphone has a sound. on the other hand, this is not what I would use as a music lover, it is a bit austere ... should be especially well supplied, and be wary of his treachery at the bottom. To proscribe engaging singing! it whenever there is a lot repisse level, it is half open. I am a little sawed to see that compared to the pro gear headphones supermarket.
This headphone was designed to make music, just music

The AKG K 240 Studio's are a set of headphones that are indeed intended for use in the studio. I've owned a set of these headphones for years as my Dad has had them for a while and now I'm using them in my home studio. We used to use them for simple listening purposes, but I've found them to be further useful in my home studio for a variety of purposes, mostly for monitoring during recording. The headphones have a soft and sort of bouncy ear piece which is quite comfortable to wear, although I must say that the pair I own has quite a bit of wear and tear on them. The size of the headphones is adjustable, but it's not the best adjuster as it doesn't give you all that much flexibility. Beyond the feel and comfort of the headphones, the K 240 Studio's have a nice and full sound, with a decent amount of low end for a set of headphones. The sound isn't the best that I've heard from a set of headphones, but it's definitely accurate enough for monitoring during recording and simple listening applications. You can get a new set of these headphones for the reasonable price of $100 US dollars, and I'm pretty sure they're the same exact headphones that AKG has been making under this model name for years. I don't know exactly what year the model I have was made, but it's definitely an earlier version. I do prefer a number of different headphone models out there that are in this price range, like the Sennheiser HD 280, but it's all in the same vein and it's really just a matter of personal preference. If you're in the market for a set of high quality studio monitors, the AKG K 240 Studio's are a model you need to know about.
