AKG unveils K182 monitor headphones

AKG has introduced the K182 foldable, closed-back professional monitor headphones, which are designed to provide unmatched sonic clarity, comfort and portability for musicians and engineers – all at an affordable price point.

The K182 drivers ensure high output while the 10Hz – 28kHz frequency range provides ‘a truly balanced mix.’ The K182’s high-sensitivity 50mm transducers also ensure professional-quality sound even with mobile devices, the manufacturer says, while the closed-back, over-ear design provides ‘great performance for every instrumentalist’ and comfort during long sessions.

Providing long-lasting durability, the K182 is built to endure the inevitable drops and bumps that happen during use and transport. The 3D-axis professional folding mechanism makes it easy to pack the K182 into compact spaces, and the detachable cable with 1/8”-to-1/4” screw-on adapter offers easy connectivity with gear of all kinds and, along with the replaceable earpads, ‘extends the longevity of the customer’s investment.’

“While the K182 headphones are the result of careful listening to the needs of customers who work in environments of all sizes and shapes, we found a common thread in their criteria for a must-have pair of headphones – excellent sound quality, lasting comfort and built-to-last reliability,” said Karam Kaul, marketing director at AKG. “With the K182 headphones, we enable musicians and engineers to truly take control of their sound.”
