I am happy with my purchase

I was very satisfied with service I received from Sonic. I selected the AKG headphones over Shure SRH 940 and Roland RH-D30. Selling point for me: made, tested and numbered in Austria. I am very happy with the product’s performance. I use the headphones for home studio recording and mixing; the sound is very clinical and real.
Headphones are very comfortable to wear. They came with 2 long cables 3m and 6m. I would recommend this product and seller.

Fantastic!

I love these headphones. They look great and are extremely comfortable. Their sound is flat in that no register (e.g., bass) is accentuated over others. I imagine these are similar to what would be used in a studio when mixing. Be warned though: the design is totally open, so others will be able to hear everything you're listening to.

WOW

These headphones are pretty special. I kept going back and forth on getting the AKG open, or closed diaphragm. I figured since I am usually doing most of my music listening by myself, or in the quiet, it was not going to matter if they were open or not. I have been so pleased with these headphones. I had watched them for some time.

The sound is incredible. it is clear, crisp, and sounds like a concert every time I use them. I really feel like I get a sense of where each person is on stage. When I have it hooked up to my NuForce headphone amp (which by the way is another must have!) It gives me the definition to tell how tall the person is that is singing hehe. The difference between open and closed headphones are night and day. both carry their own advantages. For me, I really cant think of a different headphone I would prefer. Excellent pick. Excellent sound.

NICE CANS!

I really love these. VERY different sound then Beats. In a GOOD way! Haha, people are so lost. These are the way we were intended listen to music, this is what REAL artists intended on. Not some overmarketed, over sponsored, over endorsed plastic headband with a sorry excuse for speakers. A real engineer designed these. Even put a REAL artist on them too!!!!
