AKG K92 Closed Back Headphones,Wired,Black...

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

i'm not an audiophile, or someone who makes/produces music, so i didn't buy these with the intent of using them as "studio monitors". i just needed a set of comfortable, over-ear 'phones primarily for home use (not commute) that both look and sound good and don't cost a lot. very casual, regular usage; no professional stuff. and for someone with similar requirements, i would definitely implore them to check these out.i love the design. no complaints wrt the material used. incidentally, i was planning on buying the cheaper k52s because of their all black body, but i decided against it because i prefer the cushioning on this one. the look is great too. these are probably the only pair of headphones that don't make me look crazy.the comfort is decent. lmao i actually forgot that these have no adjustable slider thing and instead have the self-adjusting headband, but either way, it feels okay. the earcups are huge and so would completely engulf anyone's ears. i'm 6', have a relatively large head and ears, so these were actually good for me. none of that sharp pain you get from on-ears.caveat: when you wear these, if your ears are big, especially if they are more "out" (basically, protrude outward from your head in a more noticeable way), then they might touch the inside of the cans, which feels... weird, for sure. it doesn't cause like immense discomfort, but it's still weird and does cause some strain after a while because your ears are literally pressing against the inside of the cup. also, after a while, your ears might feel warm too. not hot, just slightly warm.the cord is, yes, very long. again, not a problem for me because i'm not using these while commuting. and i don't think these are sweatproof, waterproof, foldable, etc., but then again they're not made to be used on public transit 💀 the context of use matters. they're meant for the studio and yeah, since we're all holed up in our houses anyway, they're great for use inside the house too, granted all you do is just listen to music and chill.the sound quality is not remarkable or anything, but it's good enough! you won't find me raving about these for "how amazing they sound", but they do sound very good, especially for the price. no complaints with the sound quality esp. given the price.although, a comparable alternative would be the oneodio headphones that a lot of reviewers really like and i did also consider them, but (personally) their design was too tacky and too close to an on-ear pair which only means one thing for people with big ears: pain. but yeah, none of that "extra bass" bs that i absolutely detest. the music sounds clear and balanced.caveat: i keep reaching for the wire to change the song constantly forgetting that this doesn't have button controls (or even a mic, but hey, can't complain too much) 😭 if you're someone who does want these extra features, check out the oneodio pair for sure.also, the noise cancellation on these is... not good, period. like "i could hear my fan through these when i wasn't playing anything" not good. it's not terrible, but it's just not there, really.and okay, i know there's a whole conversation about studio/monitor headphones not being compatible with regular smartphones involving a lot of technical jargon ("impedance", "impedance matching", etc.), but i don't think you'd have to worry about that stuffl with these. i use these with my redmi note 10 pro to listen to spotify, google podcasts, local music and also to watch videos/movies on youtube, netflix, prime video and i haven't encountered any issues! i believe they'd work just fine with any modern smartphone.in all, these are a great pair and i would say i'm satisfied with my purchase!

i bought AKG K92 & it is excellent product. Bass does not feel natural. Feels like artificial. Vocals are clear but instruments are not clear Sound quality is good for the price. Comfort is good, does not put pressure on ears and lightweight too but wire quality is poor and wire length is 3m and that is too much. i hope this review helps everyone !

The headphone is lightweight. It is over-the-ear, and my ear completely goes inside the cup. It does not press my ears, so it is very comfortable. The sound quality is awesome. The bass is very well balanced. You can hear every low pitch and high pitch, as well as every instrument in the music, very clearly. I use this to compose music in FL Studio. It is a nice headphone for gaming too. The cable is 3 meters long. I recommend this headphone for everyone, and for this price, it is a good deal.

No microphone, no bluetooth, no noise cancellation, no branding markup. Everything you pay is for sound and build quality.Very lightweight, flexible and self adjusting. Extremely comfortable for extended use. Clean, balanced, high resolution sound. Suitable for all kinds of audio.Only note, you need a good port to get the most out of it. Works great on my computer. But when I plug it into my ps5 controller, it's fine. But not very loud.

The headphones produce great quality audio, but do be mind that there is little to none noise cancellation, so you will have to sit in a silent room and the cable is too long, so is not great when travelling. but if your going to use these headphones in your home, its a buy.
