Best under budget.
Weight; Almost all AKG headphones are light weight, so no worries. Build Quality; Really better build quality, than it's comparators, though it is just hard plastic. Also, the velvet pads are soooo comfy Function Usage; 1. Best for studio recordings ; it's a closed back!! 2. The field emulation is quite great considering its price, so it's definitely considered for orchestra related music. 3. I'm not personally a drummer but my fellow people says it's worth it! 4. Detachable cable, so worthable for live sound (like field recording) Sound quality; Frequency range: The bass is not enough(feels even lower than flat ones), making it too dull. The mids and highs are arguably good. Clarity: The instrument isolation is every clear but lacks volume (compared with DT770 80 ohms) even after using a better DAC. Clarity further decreases when used in mobile systems (including laptops); tried on Dell G15 and Asus F15, both feels off. I don't personally like this use of mini XLR but, it's fine (locks perfectly and easy to attach and detach)

“If I could give zero stars, I’d still feel like I overpaid.”
This product is the physical embodiment of disappointment. I’ve had heartbreaks that hurt less. It stopped working faster than my motivation on a Monday morning. The packaging looked like it survived a bar fight, and the manual was clearly written by someone who’s never met the product — or the English language. I tried to return it, but the company ghosted me like a bad Tinder date. Now it sits on my shelf as a ₹ 8,000 reminder of poor life choices. I’d rather set my money on fire — at least that would provide warmth and entertainment. Do not buy. Not even as a prank.

Spettacolari ma non per tutti
Dopo svariate ricerche su internet e letture di centinaia di recensioni, ho optato per queste cuffie e posso confermare il loro eccezionale suono. Premetto che per quanto riguarda le cuffie il giudizio ed il gusto sonoro sono molto molto personali ed anche se a me fanno letteralmente impazzire queste cuffie, cercherò di essere il più imparziale possibile elencando i pregi ed anche quelli che potrebbero essere per qualcuno dei difetti. - Il suono di queste cuffie risulta essere di una purezza imbarazzante mai sentita prima, si addicono all'ascolto di concerti dal vivo dove si riescono a percepire dove sono posizionati i vari strumenti o i vari cantanti dando ampiezza al palco, eccezionali con musica strumentale dove si sente ogni singola nota di una chitarra acustica, queste cuffie permettono di sentire suoni nuovi su tracce magari ascoltate decine di volte in precedenza, scordatevi di tutta quella musica ovattata ma abituatevi a degli alti e medi equilibratissimi e definiti in modo straordinario, bassi che non sovrastano mai i toni medi e alti. Si tratta di cuffie da studio progettate per trasferire il suono più fedele possibile come il musicista lo ha registrato, senza nessuna alterazione per enfatizzare una tonalità specifica. Per gli amanti delle Beats dove prevalgono i toni bassi sempre molto enfatizzati, queste cuffie non fanno per voi in quanto i bassi sono piuttosto carenti anche se presenti e puliti. Quindi qualità d'ascolto eccezionale come mai provata, ma che ti costringe ad un ascolto da amplificatore in quanto per i suoi 32Ohm d'impedenza l'ascolto da PC o Smartphone risulta essere con un volume basso che non ti permette di apprezzarne le qualità, quindi le sconsiglierei per chi le vuole usare principalmente in queste situazioni. I padiglioni sono over ear di grandi dimensioni che quindi nemmeno toccano l'orecchio, nella confezione se ne trovano di due tipologie, in similpelle e velluto in funzione di cosa si preferisce, comunque entrambi comodi che associati ad una estrema leggerezza totale permettono un uso prolungato senza avere disturbi. Il rovescio della medaglia di una purezza totale è che se la traccia non è pulita ovviamente tutto viene rimarcato rendendo poco piacevole l'ascolto. CONCLUSIONI Le ritengo a mio gusto delle cuffie eccezionali che consiglierei a tutti per provare un'esperienza nuova d'ascolto, certamente non sono cuffie per tutti i gusti dove qualcuno le potrebbe trovare troppo sobrie per l'ascolto di musica che pompa....ma questo non è il loro valore!!!!

AKG Reviewfi.com review
I picked up a pair of AKGs back in November on sale for $[...] to substitute my Paradigm Monitor speakers while I am not at home. After much scrutiny, I picked the AKG K271 MKII; while it is not the most recent model released by the company, it offers the same sound quality and more. To put it bluntly, I was extremely satisfied. To start, the most important aspect of headphones (aka cans) of this nature: sound quality. The general consensus is that AKG is very muddy in the bass while being very bright on the high end. While the stereotype may be true in some models, the headphones are fantastic at covering the entire spectrum from muddy to crisp. I will have to agree the highs are bright, but nothing that can't be fixed to your liking in an equalizer. When I first started listening to them, I experienced the "wow, I'v never noticed that cymbal hit before" symptom. I could (and have) lay on my bed listening to music for hours, completely enveloped in music; the downside is the drop in external perception leads to being very startled by visitors. While an impedance of 55 Ohms doesn't necessarily call for a headphone amp, I picked one up just to see the difference. The PA2V2 was recommended to me, so I emailed the gentleman over at Electric-Avenue.com and bought one. The K271 and PA2v2 pair nicely with each other: boosting the bass and bringing out the sound as a whole, without the amp I had most audio outputs turned very high up. The amp has also been nice to have for all my headphones, but more to come on that in the PA2v2 full review. The build of the headphones is solid and I don't feel like I'm going to break them. I quite enjoy the features that have been integrated into these headphones, from them turning off when you take them off, to a small slit allowing for easy earpad replacement. To begin, the auto adjusting headband: size fitting to everyone, the band being pushed up also enables the sound to come through the drivers. The K271 also comes with a detachable cable, so you can have the long studio cable, or the spiral stretch cable (and you don't have to worry about wrapping the cable around the cans). Lastly, the cans come with leatherette or velour eapads: I personally use the velour as they warm the bass and are very comfortable. After reading through hundreds of reviews for AKG, Grado, Sennheiser, and Beyerdynamic, I cut my final choice down to the AKG K271 and K272. The difference? A whole bunch of accessories, color, and price. The K272 retails at $329 on amazon, comes in black with a 1/4 inch adapter and Velour ear pads. The K271 MKII retails at $151 on amazon, comes in dark blue with a 1/4 inch adapter, Leatherette and Velour ear pads, detachable 3m cable and 5m coiled cable. After about 70 hours of listening these cans have burned in to sound even better than when I first got them, and I strongly recommend them if you're looking for this style. (Note: these headphones can't really be used for DJing) [...].

Excellent Headphones
At the 80 CDN price tag I got them for, they were a real deal. They are comfortable and sound great. As noted in other reviews,the bias on these is neutral; everything shows up on stage and is measured. Not for the "deep bass" experience.
