AKG K92

Reviewing after more than a year of use: (5 stars for sound / 4 stars for build quality) AKG is an Austrian company, now owned by Harman International of the famous harman/kardon brand of hi-fi equipment and JBL. If you're looking for a good pair of budget headphones for an Immersive listening experience, the K92 is perfect. They may not be the best looking ones, but the metal frame makes them quite sturdy, while most expensive brands are made completely of plastic. I bought these headphones purely for listening to music via my computer. The ear cups of my previous (decent) AKG K52s had become scruffy so I wanted to change and after scouting several hi-fi audio websites, decided to upgrade to the K92 which had good recommendations as opposed to the K72. The headphones deliver crisp, clear sound with no or minimal distortion (depending on your audio source or file). They have have a good audio frequency bandwidth (16 - 22000 Hz) which provides a wide dynamic range which means you get bold bass and clear treble. The low impedence of 32 ohms means that the headphones can be driven easily at low volume by a computer sound card without the need for an additional amplifier. A 40 mm driver delivers good bass which is not too punchy, but just right since these are studio monitoring headphones. On the downside, I am already noticing slight wear on the earcups (which I believe are replaceable). Overall, for the price, the AKG 92 is a steal. If you're into classical music, jazz, easy or popular music, I'd recommend these highly. Go for them without a doubt. Pros: * 40 mm driver delivers good low bass frequencies (not too punchy) * Low impedence (32 ohms) gives clear sound at low volume * Audio frequency bandwidth: 16 - 22000 Hz gives bold bass, good midtone and clear treble (very good for the price) * Earcups fit well (tightly) over the ears providing passive noise cancelling (not active) * Very enjoyable for classical music, jazz, popular and general listening * Fairly decent build quality (metal frame as opposed to full plastic) Cons: * Earcups degrade after a year of use * As with any over ear headphones, your ears become hot after prolonged use (should not be a problem in cold weather or an air-conditioned environment) * None otherwise

Super comfy. You can wear the fir several hours even if you have a big head like mine. Bass is there but significantly less then consumer grade headphones. Cable quality is good. Don't expect really good passive noise cancellation.

Very high clarity headphones with very comfortable structure. The double RIM makes it fit my head without prior adjustment. The audio is the best part, due to flat excursion, the audio reproduction of this headphones is excellent. Note on wire: the wire has a male port you must unscrew before you are able to use its 3.0 mm jack. The product looks durable as well. HIghly recommend an AKG headphones.

I brought k72 and honestly this was the best decision of my life, I am reviewing these after 2 years of use, if you are planning use these on pc, don't think just go for it, only one thing you need to keep in mind that if your environment is very noisy, then these headphones don't cancel noise that much. You will never feel uncomfortable ( I have used them for stright 8 hours) with these and Even if you feel that they are tight or loose you can just bend them. And the audio, that's exactly what you are paying for, best quality of you will ever hear in this price range.

This product is very good for music listening, Clear music , and high quality wires

After using the AKG K92 for more than 10 days, I noticed one issue. When I touch the metal support rods on the headband with my forearm, I feel a slight electrical shock. I'm not sure why this happens. I tested it with both my laptop and my mobile phone, and I noticed the same issue in both cases. Apart from that, the overall product is good. If you're looking for strong bass or a punchy sound, I'd recommend choosing a different pair of headphones, as the AKG K92 has very little bass. However, the overall sound quality is clear and balanced, making it good for music listening and monitoring. The build quality is decent, but it could have been better.

I wasn't expecting much from these, just a bit of late-night TV so I wouldn't disturb neighbors. They are outperforming their price by quite a bit. I'm not very much into headphones, this is my fifth unit and it's pretty solid for the price. The fit is comfortable, it's very light and the pressure on the ears is almost perfect. My ears do not touch the diffuser plate, so that's a relief. However they do press down on the stems of my spectacles, which makes sharp vision a bit of an issue when I use both together. As to the sound, it is heavily dependent on the upstream equipment. With a Topping DX3 Pro or a Fiio M3, it sounds fantastic, almost perfect balance with a slight lisp that serves as a highlight rather than a hindrance. With a MOTU M2 there is a slight lift through the midrange, which is very good for monitoring. With a Behringer UMC22, it is terrible - there's a lot of harshness through the upper mids and it needs to be EQ'ed a lot. The M50X, which I also own, doesn't have so much sensitivity, while still being revealing of the source. This is unfortunate, as I was hoping to use the AKGs with the UMC22 as a long-term partner. Oh well. Like the Superlux 668B, the right side gets signal through the headband but unlike it, these use an actual wire to connect the two ends instead of the headband itself. This means the wire is really thin and prone to breakage. I've not had a failure yet, but I don't use it more than a few hours a week. That might be an issue, or not. We'll see. There's actually very little I can complain about at this price, and that's saying a lot. I've never really been happy with budget headphones, so these break new ground. They perform respectably while not in the same league as the M50X or the MSR7B, and can happily give the HD280 a run for their money. I would handily recommend it both for casual use and entry-level monitoring work, just be sure to give it the right source.

Worth every penny. Sound quality is great, very durable and heavy duty material, only for home use not that much travel friendly cause of the long cable but overall a great product

These headphones are terrific value. Their solid build means they are going to last – AKG bent the cable 80,000 times during production just to test longevity. The generous padding is nice and comfy, while the 3m cable provides enough play for listening comfortably at home. This is a classic studio headphone design, and while you could just about get away with wearing these out on the street, the long cable demonstrates that they're not made specifically for that purpose. The sound is pleasingly expansive, with a breadth and scale rarely found in the kind of headphones you'd normally see on the high street at this sort of price. They certainly come across as smooth, not to mention the controlled bass. The midrange isn't quite as clean as you would like, but for the money, these are amongst the best over-ear headphones if affordability is a factor.
