Akg Professional Audio Bluetooth Headphone, Black

Very poor build quality, despite being careful the head band ended up suddenly snapping just trying to put them on. Bluetooth was good for the first 6 months or so but the touch controls suddenly stopped working. Also had to buy 3rd party earcups because the originals fell apart and AKG doesnt offer replacements. Very disappointing as the audio quality was nice and they were quite comfortable. Replacement would be nice as they were faulty pretty soon in but AKG support has been pretty poor

These have a warm rich very natural sound with a satisfying resonant bass thump but without the boxy coloration or one note boominess pitfalls of some closed back designs. For me, against the Audio Technica ATH-M50xBT, Beyer Lagoon ANC and Shure Aonic 50 this really is the pick of the bunch for sound (recordings of how they sound against eachother are on my Amazon profile) and while the Beyer edges it on comfort the Lagoon's plastic and construction feels much more fragile and I prefer the functional industrial aesthetics of the AKG. There is only passive noise isolation rather than active noise cancellation however this is adequate for me and the ANC on its competing studio sound wireless headphones is in any case somewhat below the class leading Sony WH-1000XM4. They can be used with one ear free like the HD25 though are over-ear rather than on-ear so more comfortable over longer listening sessions. I do find I need to reposition the cups to let my ears breathe from time to time however the clamping force and space in the cup for the outer ear is more tolerable than with the ATH-M50xBT. The Shure has the most comfortable ear cups with sumptuous padding and space however that headphone's headband and weight cause discomfort from pressure at the very top of my head. The headband design means that the cups do not fold flat on to your chest so together with the clamp which keeps the cups together they can't be slid down to and worn around your neck. These go loud - maybe now AKG are owned by Samsung they don't have to comply with EU regs and can allow you the freedom to deafen yourself. Some reviewers have reported build issues and while mine have shown no issues in the week I've had them I'd recommend buying from somewhere reputable. The controls work fine with a simple switch for power and touch controls for play/pause (double touch), skip (swipe horizontally) and volume (swipe vertically). Some have said K361 sounds better but I suspect it may be a similar story to the Shure SRH440 v SRH840 where the cheaper 440 sounds more immediately appealing since it highlights female vocals but in fact over the long term and a range of music the 840 is more accurate and ultimately satisfying unless you have an aversion to bass. Some may grumble about the mini xlr audio and micro usb power cables however a generous 3 audio cables (short, long and coiled) are supplied. So in summary great studio quality closed back sound in a convenient, fairly comfortable and in the main functional and attractive design with responsive controls at a very reasonable price.

Unlike AKG K52 the K371 gives more accurate listening experience of high quality sound in movies & music. My prime requirement was clear dialogues/whisper reproduction even during action scenes etc when other sounds at bass are predominant and found K52 lacking in it. All the notes are clear in K371 (even mids/upper mids) as compared to K52. Apart from my Senhiesser HD 599, the K371 & the K361 are really good at clear reproduction of sounds at all audible frequencies especially with slight tweaking of equaliser in Dolby Atmos as per your taste. HD 599 is little warm and open back giving better sound stage but is unusable if ambient noise is present. I was expecting lesser sound stage in K371 but it is quite acceptable with the slight passive noise cancellation it provides. Mind you the sound clarity drops significantly when using Bluetooth on the K371 bt. I use it with wires for high quality sound & BT only for songs on mobile & calls. Mic is also good enough on BT for calls. BT range is also good. It can play decently from mobile or laptop without any DAC due to low impedance. BT connection is slightly troublesome with multiple devices as it always tries to connect to its earlier connected device & needs intervention. Earlier, quality control was a big issue in K371 but I took a risk due to good discount offered and luckily got a good piece. But I am still doubtful of its durability, especially the delicate hinge mechanisms. I got both HD 599 se & K371 bt at a very good discount (Rs 7k & Rs 6k) thanks to Amazon. My search for perfect headphones as per my requirements is now finally over.
