Akg k550

Give these headphones lots of time to aclimate themselves to your ears. You'll think there's no bass at first but once the cans loosen up they're amazing!

Love them!

I have owned them for only 2 weeks but so far, wow, I really like them. They look good, sound great, seems very durable. I must say I intend to use them only at work and not on transportation since they are big and not really made for mobility. They are comfortable (very important to me). Their sound is neutral, just as I wanted since I listen mostly to Jazz and light rock / folk. Still, they have some bass, just normal, not artificially more like some other headphones. I really recommend them!

Great product

Not as comfortable as the k271 mkII but they sound at least as good and are also louder. I also prefer to have a detachable lead but it is no so important

NIce set of cans for everyday listening

Bought these about a month ago and am very happy with the result. Great sound detail for anything I'm listening to, and fantastic at work because they don't leak any sound, especially when I'm in a room full of people. Everything is clear and crisp. Headphones are also gorgeous and extremely comfortable.

A few cons: the headphones are HUGE, so if you have a small head, go for something else, and the set doesn't come with a carrying case.

Overall though, definitely a great buy.
