This future-oriented, open-back dynamic headphone do not only offer good wearing comfort but also deliver an incredibly detailed, full, yet crisp sound. This is the result of a new AKG Varimotion two-layer diaphragm that ensures optimum diaphragm motion for extremely accurate high frequency response and a powerful low end.
The overall sound is uncommonly natural and open. In short, the K 601 is premium reference headphone for anyone who appreciates true high-end equipment.

Comments about AKG Akg K 601 Mastering Monitoring Headphone - Cable - Over-the-head (akg K601):
I use them as a reference check for mixing / mastering. They are light weight and comfortable and provide a clear and natural representation of the material I am working with. I would recommend them to anyone in pro audio. However, they require a good headphone amplifier and are not well suited for the low output of computers and other hand held devices.

Comfort is the key to this headphone. 5-6 hours per day is easy and comfortable.
