Purchased these at a local store for $45 on sale after doing some research online about headphones to use with a guitar amp for under $100 bucks. These do the trick and sound great for the price. I primarilly use these for late night guitar sessions and have only tried them out once with an MP3 player and the sound quality is good. AKG seem to make very versatile and durable headphones at a good value and I would buy another product from them in the future.

I am no audiophile but I wanted cans that would let me hear every note clearly from the guitar amp and these seem to be handling it well. For the musicians, I have a small solid state amp and a larger tube amp in which the AKG's sound exceptional. The cord is long and the frequency response is far better than the older Sony cans I used before these. These are good headphones for under $50 bucks, its n wonder this model has been sround so long.

I bought these for my project studio, and they work well. They have a great sound. They are not amazing, but for what they cost, they are good. I cannot wear them for more than 3 hours. They get uncomfortable and hot. This can be a problem in a long recording or mixing session, but I can deal with it I suppose. I want the AKG702 next. Eventually work up to the Grado. My gear has to be upgraded first.
