The 5 star K550s are a very rare breed, impressively combining the noise isolation of closed back headphones with the expansive soundstage of open backs. AKG have succeeded in creating reference class headphones that are perfect for use almost anywhere and that can be easily folded flat for simple transportation. Perfect for your portable device or your home hi-fi system.
The distinctive aesthetics of the K550s are stylish and chunky yet deceptively lightweight - comfortable enough for hours of use. The huge 50mm drivers and AKG's Real Image Engineering mean an awesome frequency response, ensuring that these 'phones deliver a precise, spacious sound and a perception of distance and depth that remains faithful to the original recording.
In their 2012 5 star review, What Hifi magazine called the K550s "Sweetly communicative, the K550s handle tempos in a natural manner and punch into and out of low frequencies with razor sharp precision" (What Hifi Magazine, Feb 2012).
With a stunningly realistic soundstage and very low sound leakage, the K550s from AKG will keep you immersed in your music for hours on end.
