Review: Best budget closed back headphones. - Can’t beat the price and reliability of these. The design is made with inexpensive materials but is very sturdy. The ear cuffs fit super well over ears, even bigger ears, and the headphones are so light that I never experience ear pain or any discomfort even after 4+hours of wearing these. The sound quality is great and I’ve mixed and mastered on these quite a bit.
Review: Really Great headphones for a reasonable price - These sound great, are very comfortable, and seem to weigh nothing. Overall they are great.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is a jack type? 3.5 mm?**
A: The jack comes with a 1/4" connector attached, but it can be screwed off for the more mobile-device-friendly 3.5mm connector.

**Q: How's the bass like? Is it deep or soft**
A: The basic state of the headphones is flat frequency response which is as it should be. Because of this they respond very favorably to how you set the EQ on your playback device. If you want bass, EQ for bass. What they do not do is color the playback like the overwhelming low mid stuff you get out of something like a set of beats. These reproduce what is sent to them very accurately making them great as a studio monitor and even better for home listening. Very impressive headphones for the price point.

**Q: Would these be good to use in the office to block noise from neighboring cubicles? And, I don't want my ears to hurt from wearing them.**
A: These are very comfortable headphones compared to other closed-back headphones and can't beat the price. Not sure if there would be enough insulation from outside noise, but i you are in an office environment, I would think so.

**Q: Is the cord removable?**
A: No, the cord is not removable/replaceable on this model. However, it is removable/replaceable on almost any other higher series akg headphone. I might recommend the k200 series if you want that feature.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best budget closed back headphones.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really Great headphones for a reasonable price
*by D***S on November 6, 2025*

These sound great, are very comfortable, and seem to weigh nothing. Overall they are great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent, comfortable headphones, but need an amp to shine.
*by C***D on November 28, 2023*

I'm not an audiophile, but I can tell the difference between decent headphones and garbage ones. I'm a longtime Grado headphone user. Pros: Good price when on sale Long cord Sound good when used with a headphone amp Headband is snug but not tight, won't squeeze your head Very comfortable over the ear pads Cons: MSRP is way too high for what you get -- don't pay full price for these Cheap and plastic-y construction, questionable durability Stereo jack is not gold plated so you will get some crackle and may have to reinsert or rotate the jack a few times to get a clean sound from it. Really needs a headphone amp to sound its best. Initially, I was very unimpressed with these headphones. They sounded flat and muffled. This was using the headphone jack on my phone and computer speakers. Then I tried them on a USB DAC with a strong headphone amp built in and the sound really opened up. Suddenly they had good tight bass and decently clear highs. Definitely recommend using with a headphone amp!
