Review: Really good $50 headphones - I was looking for a set of headphones to use when my electronic music gigs start back up. I also didn't want to be taking my more expensive studio headphones out into that environment. These AKG K72's fill the bill quite nicely. These are light weight and very comfortable to wear for long sessions. They have acceptable sound isolation. The bass is quite good - There's a bit of a bump around 100 Hz, but it is not unreasonable. The midrange is decent, but it does not have 3D audiophile-levels of clarity like $500 studio headphones. However, the midrange response is more than acceptable for tracking. The high frequency response is good, with a smooth roll off starting about 16 kHz. My only criticism would be the vulnerability of the connecting cable to the headset. So overall, the AKG K72's are a good value for those looking for performance tracking headphones.
Review: It's insane for that price tag - Honestly most headphones in stores for this price are kinda bad. But trying these is honestly mind blowing. I'm suprised they figured out how to make good sound quality for that low of a price tag. I love using these headphones when mixing! The only real downside is that there isn't enough sound isolation, but my room is quiet anyway so that really doesn't matter for me. Overall these work great! Also if your reading this review I highly recommend using soundid if you want to make your studio headphones have a flat sound curve, which delivers the flat studio sound that provides extremely accurate audio,

## 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ These cans are good for the price but...
*by G***7 on February 26, 2023*

For the price they're a decent set of headphones. Comfortable, but sound-wise there is a definite emphasis in the 200Hz to 400Hz range and a little damping of highs, which leads to a small carpeted-wall room sound overall. Detail is not there in the higher frequencies and the whole sound is somewhat muted and thumps in the lower mid and bass areas. I love AKG, and swear by my K701s, but the "Pro Audio" in the title of the K72 is a misnomer if you ask me. But then, there is about $150 difference in price between them, so this proves the old adage, you get what you pay for. I'd say good for general listening and hearing yourself talk if you're doing a podcast or something, but I wouldn't suggest making critical EQ decisions based on what these are telling your ears. To be thorough I revisited this review, and as I sit here listening to a few extremes of music taste and quality as I write this update, I'm still hearing definite emphasis in the bass area and muted highs. My music samples of choice were Steely Dan, Aja, some Hall & Oats selections, Nine Inch Nails, White Zombie. It may sound strange but it's telling. To be honest, Nine Inch Nails and White Zombie sound pretty good with these headphones but the bass response is still very pronounced, and once things are underway the muted quality takes over. The highly compressed quality of the more modern music helps, but the muffled effect is still evident. As some other reviewers mentioned, good for general listening. Good quality for the price I'd say.
