Accurate, Reliable, Comfortable (and Affordable) Headphones

For years, studio dwellers at Sweetwater have loved the supreme sound from KRK's KNS 6400 headphones. Now, KRK builds off that success with KNS 6402 Studio Monitoring Headphones. These closed-back 'phones give you the ability to monitor back and forth between speakers and headphones with a freedom you'd never have thought possible. Traditionally, having to switch to headphone monitoring has represented a "disconnect" of sorts in the recording process. You often find that those comfortable, ruggedly built headphones you love bear little sonic resemblance to your trusted monitor speakers. Drawing upon their 20-plus years of experience in studio sound, KRK has, fortunately, solved this dilemma with their KNS series headphones.

Designed for critical listening

With KRK KNS6402 headphones, monitoring on cans is no longer a jarring experience. Voiced to remain true to the character of KRK's class-leading studio monitors, the 6402s are designed to be a true reference monitor — allowing you to record and mix the same way you would using speakers. Exceedingly accurate, the 6402s have a natural, wide frequency response with a silky, articulate high end, and an extended low-frequency definition that ensures that the bass component of your music is accurately reproduced. The robust dynamic range exhibited by the KRK KNS6402 serves up consistent low-distortion detail and clarity.

Supreme comfort

In the design of the KNS6402, KRK has given comfort a high priority. These circumaurals cradle the ear to remain comfortable during marathon sessions. The KNS6402s are also thoughtfully spec'd out with replaceable parts, including a detachable, high-durability, oxygen-free copper cable. Delivering accuracy, comfort, and reliability, these headphones are designed from the ground up for pro monitoring — allowing you to trust your headphones as never before.

KRK KNS6402 Closed-back Monitor Headphones Features:

  • Voiced to remain true to the character of KRK's class-leading studio monitors
  • Adjustable, foldable driver enclosures provide comfort and portability
  • Up to 26dBA of sound isolation to prevent headphone bleed

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Rated 3/5

Crisp sound, but unsatisfying low end

Overall, a good pair of headphones. But the frequency range with low end spec'd at 10Hz doesn't show up at all. To use this for monitoring, I'll need to constantly switch to reference mixes.
