AKG K72 Closed Back Studio Over Ear Wired Headphones, Black, Pack of 1

I've been a long-time AKG fan, I've owned all sorts of headphones throughout the years but the K77's I bought about 10 years ago have exceeded my expectations for the price point that I've looked no further since. Unfortunately, one of the drivers stopped working eventually (or could be the cable, which can't be replaced). Immediately, I went to look for a newer AKG offer and the K120 seemed to be the best choice. Unfortunately, those cans sounded flat and blocked none of the ambient sound. Fortunately, these K72s were the other "Amazon's choice" and I absolutely love them. Supremely lightweight and comfortable, for a guy with large ears I can wear them on extended basis with no issues at all, very large cup. And the stretchable band has been improved significantly. Long cable for comfortable movement. The sound profile on these is fantastic. It is not the flat reference sound of the K120, these have a punch on both the bass and highs and respond excellently to EQ adjustments. They can be used for enjoying music just as much as producing it. Also the low resistance means I can turn the volume down to 25-30% on my PC and it would get as loud as standard reference cans at 80%. Build quality looks solid, despite it being all plastic. They're very flexible (and of course as mentioned comfortable). If you didn't know, one might assume they're worth $500 based on the sleek design. Absolutely love these, you can't go wrong, and here's to another 10 years.

Reviewing after more than a year of use: (5 stars for sound / 4 stars for build quality) AKG is an Austrian company, now owned by Harman International of the famous harman/kardon brand of hi-fi equipment and JBL. If you're looking for a good pair of budget headphones for an Immersive listening experience, the K92 is perfect. They may not be the best looking ones, but the metal frame makes them quite sturdy, while most expensive brands are made completely of plastic. I bought these headphones purely for listening to music via my computer. The ear cups of my previous (decent) AKG K52s had become scruffy so I wanted to change and after scouting several hi-fi audio websites, decided to upgrade to the K92 which had good recommendations as opposed to the K72. The headphones deliver crisp, clear sound with no or minimal distortion (depending on your audio source or file). They have have a good audio frequency bandwidth (16 - 22000 Hz) which provides a wide dynamic range which means you get bold bass and clear treble. The low impedence of 32 ohms means that the headphones can be driven easily at low volume by a computer sound card without the need for an additional amplifier. A 40 mm driver delivers good bass which is not too punchy, but just right since these are studio monitoring headphones. On the downside, I am already noticing slight wear on the earcups (which I believe are replaceable). Overall, for the price, the AKG 92 is a steal. If you're into classical music, jazz, easy or popular music, I'd recommend these highly. Go for them without a doubt. Pros: * 40 mm driver delivers good low bass frequencies (not too punchy) * Low impedence (32 ohms) gives clear sound at low volume * Audio frequency bandwidth: 16 - 22000 Hz gives bold bass, good midtone and clear treble (very good for the price) * Earcups fit well (tightly) over the ears providing passive noise cancelling (not active) * Very enjoyable for classical music, jazz, popular and general listening * Fairly decent build quality (metal frame as opposed to full plastic) Cons: * Earcups degrade after a year of use * As with any over ear headphones, your ears become hot after prolonged use (should not be a problem in cold weather or an air-conditioned environment) * None otherwise

Le casque AKG K72 est un excellent choix pour le monitoring et l’écoute de tous les jours. La qualité sonore est claire et détaillée, avec des basses précises et des médiums bien équilibrés. Le design fermé permet une bonne isolation, ce qui est idéal pour se concentrer sur la musique ou le mixage. Le casque est confortable même pour de longues sessions grâce aux coussinets doux et à l’arceau ajustable. La construction est solide tout en restant léger, ce qui le rend agréable à porter. Pour son prix, c’est un produit très performant que je recommande vivement aux amateurs de musique et aux professionnels en quête d’un bon casque fermé.

Not enough good. It is better with dac or audio interface otherwise you face so many problems like low volume sound etc. btw product is amazing as music producer.

Casque professionnel, arrivé très bien emballer. Hyper confortable, même pendant de longue session de travail. Je recommande vivement !! Les sons sont distincts. Pour du montage vidéo, c'est vraiment très agréable. Très léger, ne gêne pas avec des lunettes. Utilisation extrêmement agréable !

Very high clarity headphones with very comfortable structure. The double RIM makes it fit my head without prior adjustment. The audio is the best part, due to flat excursion, the audio reproduction of this headphones is excellent. Note on wire: the wire has a male port you must unscrew before you are able to use its 3.0 mm jack. The product looks durable as well. HIghly recommend an AKG headphones.

Rien à dire, nickel

AKG K52 is a great Headphone. Idk about the pricing, but the sound is really good. you will feel as if the things are happening around you in reality, The Cord is quite long, around 1.5-2 meters, i don't know exactly, but long enough. Ear Cups are soft, the clamping force is decent, not a tight one. You can do music Mastering and Mixing with these as the sound quality is Professional Studio level. I am not a sound engineer, but I am a Singer/Multi-Instrumentalist. You can trust my award winning trained ears. That's it. Enjoy the realness with these.

Para escuchar música a un volumen alto directamente al amplificador de HiFi, son una muy buena opción, no son los mejores del mercado, pero por el precio pagado, la calidad y la potencia que soportan cumplen mis exigencias. No estoy dispuesto a utilizar inalámbricos para escuchar mi música, no quiero depender de recargar batería ni distorsión por saturación al elevar el volumen de reproducción. Tienen una muy buena pegada en bajos y la diadema es cómoda, el acolchado es de buena calidad y además de cómoda es suave y aislante del ambiente exterior para que lo que escuches sea tu fuente de audio y no el ambiente.

i'm not an audiophile, or someone who makes/produces music, so i didn't buy these with the intent of using them as "studio monitors". i just needed a set of comfortable, over-ear 'phones primarily for home use (not commute) that both look and sound good and don't cost a lot. very casual, regular usage; no professional stuff. and for someone with similar requirements, i would definitely implore them to check these out. i love the design. no complaints wrt the material used. incidentally, i was planning on buying the cheaper k52s because of their all black body, but i decided against it because i prefer the cushioning on this one. the look is great too. these are probably the only pair of headphones that don't make me look crazy. the comfort is decent. lmao i actually forgot that these have no adjustable slider thing and instead have the self-adjusting headband, but either way, it feels okay. the earcups are huge and so would completely engulf anyone's ears. i'm 6', have a relatively large head and ears, so these were actually good for me. none of that sharp pain you get from on-ears. caveat: when you wear these, if your ears are big, especially if they are more "out" (basically, protrude outward from your head in a more noticeable way), then they might touch the inside of the cans, which feels... weird, for sure. it doesn't cause like immense discomfort, but it's still weird and does cause some strain after a while because your ears are literally pressing against the inside of the cup. also, after a while, your ears might feel warm too. not hot, just slightly warm. the cord is, yes, very long. again, not a problem for me because i'm not using these while commuting. and i don't think these are sweatproof, waterproof, foldable, etc., but then again they're not made to be used on public transit 💀 the context of use matters. they're meant for the studio and yeah, since we're all holed up in our houses anyway, they're great for use inside the house too, granted all you do is just listen to music and chill. the sound quality is not remarkable or anything, but it's good enough! you won't find me raving about these for "how amazing they sound", but they do sound very good, especially for the price. no complaints with the sound quality esp. given the price. although, a comparable alternative would be the oneodio headphones that a lot of reviewers really like and i did also consider them, but (personally) their design was too tacky and too close to an on-ear pair which only means one thing for people with big ears: pain. but yeah, none of that "extra bass" bs that i absolutely detest. the music sounds clear and balanced. caveat: i keep reaching for the wire to change the song constantly forgetting that this doesn't have button controls (or even a mic, but hey, can't complain too much) 😭 if you're someone who does want these extra features, check out the oneodio pair for sure. also, the noise cancellation on these is... not good, period. like "i could hear my fan through these when i wasn't playing anything" not good. it's not terrible, but it's just not there, really. and okay, i know there's a whole conversation about studio/monitor headphones not being compatible with regular smartphones involving a lot of technical jargon ("impedance", "impedance matching", etc.), but i don't think you'd have to worry about that stuffl with these. i use these with my redmi note 10 pro to listen to spotify, google podcasts, local music and also to watch videos/movies on youtube, netflix, prime video and i haven't encountered any issues! i believe they'd work just fine with any modern smartphone. in all, these are a great pair and i would say i'm satisfied with my purchase!
