5 of 5 people found the following review helpful:  Great !, By This review is from: AKG K 172 HD High-Definition Headphones (Electronics) These have excellent sound quality just the way AKG is known for. High treble and thumping bass. Personally I think this particular set of headphones have better sound quality than the Bose headphones, which I have used before. It doesn't use noise-cancelling technology but cuts out most of ambient noise so it should work very well in noisy environments as well.  Great sounding headphones but definitely need an amp., By James D (Florida) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: AKG K 172 HD High-Definition Headphones (Electronics) I have been listening to these headphones for a couple of days now and while they seem to sound great you can definitely tell they need an amp to be able to drive them properly. These are very comfortable headphones and I will post a sound update after my cmoy amp gets here. Fantastic sound quality, but don't expect loudness from an ipod/iphone!, This review is from: AKG K 172 HD High-Definition Headphones (Electronics) Okay, both the amazon.com description and the AKG website say that these headphones are suitable/ loud enough for portable players like iPods and iPhones. THIS IS WRONG! You can get solid volume when turned up all the way, in the silence of your home. But that's it. These headphones, although not a good solution for portable players, offer fantastic sound quality, with great instrument separation. The bass is lesser than many headphones, but that's a matter of personal preference. Anyway, these headphones are simply not loud enough and their shape and size is not ideal for bringing them places. Also, the on ear version (the ones I'm reviewing) clamp pretty seriously on your head after about half an hour of listening. However, after you break in the awesome velvet ear pads, the clamping force isn't nearly as bad and they become extremely comfy.
Also, this review was about using UNAMPED porable players. All in all, great headphones, just not for an un amped iPod. |
