K 240 STUDIO DESCRIPTION
 
Studio Standards For Any Headphone Jack!
The K 240 have emerged as the standard for precision listening in the studio. For over twenty years, professional engineers and musicians have made the AKG K 240 headphones the best selling and most widely used headphones in large studios, sound stages, and orchestras around the world. Reliable, comfortable and true, the K 240 Studio headphones from AKG lend well to professional and project studios alike.

AKG K240 Studio at a Glance:
  • Low impedance driver - for use with any headphone jack
  • Plug-in cable
  • Semi-open, circumaural design

Low Impedance Driver = Better, Louder Sound
So, how does AKG improve on a standard headphone? Featuring a new, low impedance XXL transducer with patented AKG Varimotion technology, the K 240 Studio headphones deliver a more accurate signal transfer and greater dynamic range than previously possible. Most importantly, the AKG K 240 Studio headphones play louder than ever before - on ANY system!

Plug-In Cable
The AKG K 240 Studio features a plug-in cable with mini XLR connector. This AKG innovative and professional design is especially of benefit if the cable is ever damaged. Instead of purchasing a new set of AKG K 240 Studio headphones, you only have to replace the cable (saving you money!).

Semi-Open, Circumaural Design
Semi-open headphones, such as the AKG K 240 Studio, combines the best features of both closed or sealed headphones and open air designs and relatively few or none of their disadvantages. Through careful attention to the control of resonances, a surprisingly realistic stereo sound field is developed, coupled with low distortion and extended low frequency response. Circumaural headphones encircle the ear, and provide a good seal. The AKG K 240 Studio are comfortable to wear, provide good isolation, and result in a consistent sound from one wearing to another. Bass extension is excellent with the AKG K 240 Studio because a very good air seal can be made against the head.

  • Dynamic headphones. Circumaural, semi-open
  • Self-adjusting headband for optimum fit
  • Frequency Range: 15 Hz to 25,000 Hz
  • Sensitivity: 91 db SPL/mW

Customer Reviews
 One of the best for over two decades

“I purchased my first two pairs of K240s back in 1985 for a small studio. Even with all the changes in technology since then, these are still one of the best in the market . Audio detail, frequency response, and accuracy compare to headphones costing much more. I've owned and used Sony, Sennheiser, Grado, and other brands over the years, and I still use the 240's on a regular basis. One other...” Read More

Sweetwater Expert Advice
 
  "K240s have been a studio standard for years. Really a true standard in many ways!"
Kenny Bergle

  "The semi-open design of the K240s make them perfect when I want a "breathable" mix that allows me to hear some of my natural voice. They've been ideal for my radio voiceover work!"
Ron Daniel

  "What a great value! The accurate response of the K240s makes mixing a breeze. For under $175.00, you can't find another pair of headphones as detailed and as accurate as these."
Art Hill

  "These are the studio standard, and have been for years. They cost more 10 years ago than they do today, plus, they now have a quick disconnect replaceable cable. Great sound from AKG, and extremely comfortable."
