K271 MKII Closed-Back Headphones
The newly designed AKG legend, K271 MKII combines the benefits of AKG's
circumaural design for extreme comfort and a closed-back design for maximum
isolation from ambient noise. Thanks to its XXL transducers, the AKG K271 MKII
sounds clean, smooth and very rich.
The AKG K271 MKII is the perfect
choice for any application where sonic bleed could cause problems such as
broadcast work.
Another important feature of the K 271 MKII is the
addition of a switch in the headband that mutes the audio just as soon as the
headphones are taken off.
Features:
- Professional circum-aural hi-fi stereo studio headphones
- Self-adjusting headband for optimum fit
- Patented Varimotion speakers
- High noise attenuation
- For onstage and studio use
- Automute feature mutes headphones when they are taken off
- Leatherette and additional velvet ear pads
- Single-sided, detachable 3 m cable and additional 5 m coiled cable
AKG Varimotion Speakers
The heart of any headphone is the diaphragm. Made of extremely thin foil, the
diaphragm is required by transducer designers to perform incredible, almost
artistic feats. The rim of the diaphragm must vibrate elastically while the
center portion should move like a piston. AKG achieved just that by designing
the Varimotion system.
The "sound zone" in the center is thicker than the
rim and therefore moves like a piston with no partial oscillations. The result
is an absolutely realistic sound, with a better sonic perspective and an airier
high end. The rim, or "movement zone," is thinner and vibrates more easily,
providing a powerful, punchy bass range.
