Get an Industry Standard with the Latest Refinements - AKG K240 MKII Studio Headphones

The K240 MKII professional over-ear, semi-open headphones are a long-time standard in studios, orchestras, and stages worldwide. Its advanced Varimotion 30 mm XXL transducers deliver solid low end, accurate mids, and crystal-clear highs. The semi-open design provides the airiness of open headphones with the powerful bass response of closed designs. For more than three decades, professional engineers and musicians have made the K240 the most widely used headphones in studios and at live consoles around the world.

Award-winning producer/engineer Steve Pageot on the AKG K240 MKII: "I don't see myself wearing other headphones in the studio. I have three pairs in my home studio; once you put them on, you can spend an entire session without ear fatigue, and sonically they are engineered for the safety of your ears."
