Not worth the buy

AKG K 44Published on 03/03/13 at 21:37
The AKG K 44 actually came with a microphone that I purchased about 2 years ago. I still own these headphones but do not use them much because I do not feel like they are very good. They feel very cheap and plastic like and the sound quality is average at best. The price of them brand new is only around 30 dollars which is not bad for a back up pair of studio headphones but the quality is nowhere near where my Shure headphones are.
The low end in these is not bad at low volumes but when turned up it can get to be very distorted, same thing with the high frequencies. They do not sound bad until the headphones are turned up and then they can get really distorted and that makes them...…

The low end in these is not bad at low volumes but when turned up it can get to be very distorted, same thing with the high frequencies. They do not sound bad until the headphones are turned up and then they can get really distorted and that makes them impossible for me to work with. I have used them just as another set of headphones in my home studio in case someone is here and I need an extra pair.
The AKG K 44 headphones are semi closed back, circumaural headphones that come with a 3.5mm stereo adapter. Though they feel cheap and plastic like, they never did break or crack so I guess they are durable. One thing I can say about them is that they are pretty comfortable compared to other headphones that I have used in the past. They felt fine after wearing them for upwards of an hour or more. They didn’t not get uncomfortable around my ears or on the top of my head. They can be adjusted to fit basically any head size but they didn’t come with a carry pouch/case and they do not fold down in any way shape or form so transporting them can be a hassle because they are not very portable at all. I do not recommend purchasing these with so many other headphones that are so much better.

I bought these headphones in addition to what I had, my faith and the only utility that I found is to check that there is sound coming out of where I plug it.

The sound reproduction is very poor. Its only merit is its price. The sound is not nice at all, whether for music, check out a mix, watch a DVD ... Go your way.

I bought this headphone because it silent cheap. I really not so I prviens: this headphone is not really suitable for storing anything. It is not closed sound and is leaking horribly renregistr even by the most unidirectional microphones. For monitoring I will also deprecated because it is not fixed to the ears as well extrment the part that attaches to the ears is not movable relative to the clamp head (view image) the sound is dispersed and not prcis the coup. I find her most port on the trebles on the bass more. So this was not good at all for use musical (proof jack is a mini-jack type walkman even if an adapter is supplied).

The vrit is that it's a good headphone STREO to listen...…

The vrit is that it's a good headphone STREO to listen to music on his Walkman. If this is the purpose for which you intend for it ... is probably another one of these for the rest ... not!

I do not want this headphone, it was I who was wrong. Note that I is (1) is taken for musicians who want to use music.

I use this headset for 2 years or so, as much for enrengistrement to listen. I love this headset for its ease of use, I can stay with for hours without fatigue (it is light and well adapted) and on top of that needs no reglagepour taille.le the value for money is excellent.
contrary to what 7hours said, I find this headset very convenient for a home studio has a low price. I tried several other headsets sennheiser among other in the same price ranges, which were largely over-inflated in the lower.
the only criticism that I found is that it is less detailed than my speakers (with fe103) in acute, but it's still a very good headset for audio analysis, and has a value surely unbeatable...…
