AKG K371-BT Bluetooth Studio Headphones, Over-Ear Closed-Back Design for Professional Performance, Foldable with 8 position hinges, 40 hour battery life, Built in Microphone, Earcup Gesture Controls

These have a warm rich very natural sound with a satisfying resonant bass thump but without the boxy coloration or one note boominess pitfalls of some closed back designs. For me, against the Audio Technica ATH-M50xBT, Beyer Lagoon ANC and Shure Aonic 50 this really is the pick of the bunch for sound (recordings of how they sound against eachother are on my Amazon profile) and while the Beyer edges it on comfort the Lagoon's plastic and construction feels much more fragile and I prefer the functional industrial aesthetics of the AKG. There is only passive noise isolation rather than active noise cancellation however this is adequate for me and the ANC on its competing studio sound wireless headphones is in any case somewhat below the class leading Sony WH-1000XM4. They can be used with one ear free like the HD25 though are over-ear rather than on-ear so more comfortable over longer listening sessions. I do find I need to reposition the cups to let my ears breathe from time to time however the clamping force and space in the cup for the outer ear is more tolerable than with the ATH-M50xBT. The Shure has the most comfortable ear cups with sumptuous padding and space however that headphone's headband and weight cause discomfort from pressure at the very top of my head. The headband design means that the cups do not fold flat on to your chest so together with the clamp which keeps the cups together they can't be slid down to and worn around your neck. These go loud - maybe now AKG are owned by Samsung they don't have to comply with EU regs and can allow you the freedom to deafen yourself. Some reviewers have reported build issues and while mine have shown no issues in the week I've had them I'd recommend buying from somewhere reputable. The controls work fine with a simple switch for power and touch controls for play/pause (double touch), skip (swipe horizontally) and volume (swipe vertically). Some have said K361 sounds better but I suspect it may be a similar story to the Shure SRH440 v SRH840 where the cheaper 440 sounds more immediately appealing since it highlights female vocals but in fact over the long term and a range of music the 840 is more accurate and ultimately satisfying unless you have an aversion to bass. Some may grumble about the mini xlr audio and micro usb power cables however a generous 3 audio cables (short, long and coiled) are supplied. So in summary great studio quality closed back sound in a convenient, fairly comfortable and in the main functional and attractive design with responsive controls at a very reasonable price.

It's Bluetooth, but the connections drops so often that it's not really usable wirelessly. (update: Seriously, unless it is being used, it just disconnects and then you have to connect again and it takes seconds, inconvenient ). The controls are inconsistent and thus a constant source of frustration. The grip is tight but the slide mechanism is weak so despite being uncomfortably tight, it still moves around if you move your head. Yes, it sounds good, very good. Base is a bit weak, but that's expected from this category. after 1.5 year I found a use for it with my work mac for online meetings, it actually doesn't drop the connection and there are no complaints about audio quality from colleagues. I never use any other control than the power slider, which of course while it's mechanical, it behaves more as a button. Once it disconnected by itself, you have to turn off then on again by two movements. Really bonkers UX. Because I found a use for it, I increased to 3* after further few months, I reduced the rating to 1* again for 2 reasons - it broke without me straining it in any way, clearly the plastic is not meant for many years of use - the battery doesn't keep charge like before, basically before even it broke, i could only use it for short periods of time, while constantly charging it. avoid at all costs. not worth the money, there are other cheaper headphones that give better quality and longer periods of use

These headphones are the Jaguar XJ220 of headphones. They sound amazing. They cover the entire frequency range. They are extremely comfortable. I use them in my recording studio with the cables provided. I use them on Bluetooth when I’m out shopping. Forget all the new gimmicky headphones. Forget noise cancelling. (Who wants to listen to the wind when out walking.) These headphones block out background noise. Their 50mm drivers work perfectly well at low volumes. If you want extremely loud music these are perfect. Whist the more expensive all singing all dancing, noise cancelling headphones, do everything for a lot more money. They are unable to compete with these headphones. The more expensive headphones do not cover all the frequencies. If you want an amazing set of headphones. Get these AKG cans. You won’t be disappointed. Oh and forget all the reviews about them being flimsy. They are extremely well constructed.

I bought this headphone because I had a pretty good impression of other akg headphones. I'm a big fan of sound from akg n700nc and samsung galaxy buds+ (which is toned by akg), and when I saw these with 50mm huge drivers and excellent frequency range, a pretty high expectation was built in my heart. Build&Features: There isn't qc issues on my particular pair (which is good), but the headband design concerns me. There are only two little hinges connecting earcups to headband and I'm afraid they may break over long period of using. Battery life is amazing, it has a longer battery life than nearly every other headphones I have. There is a touch pad on the left earcup, but it's unresponsive and usually when I want to change the volume but end up skipping songs. On the other hand, I have nothing to complain about the bluetooth connectivity, it's fast and stable. Fitting: Unfortunately right out of box fitting is sub par, the earpads are not deep enough to prevent your ears from touching the driver, and they are not soft enough to provide good sealing either. One benefit of this design is they do have a fairly wide soundstage for a close back headphone and bass is kept away so it won't rumble around and disturb the overall track. If stock earpads won't please you there are also many other earpads to choose for k371bt, and most of them definitely improve fitting by a lot. Sound: When I received the headphone and put these on, my first feeling was not so impressive but overall good. On stock earpads they sound neutral, maybe a little bit on the warm side and lacks some excitement of clarity I was hoping for. However all these features would change after swapping earpads. In fact by swapping earpads sound changes so significantly that it almost feels like a different pair of headphone. Earpads Suggestion: I tried several different earpads, basically they all improve fitting and comfort but they all have some extend of interruption to the sound. I finally decided to stay with brainwavz perforated prostock earpads for m50x, after swapping fitting and sealing improves dramatically, original neutral sound is kept, but it's a touch brighter and instrument separation is greatly improved. Just have a try on these earpads and you may release the full potential of this headphone, before it sounds kinda boring for me but after swapping earpads it actually becomes one of my favourite sounding headphones.

Going from a pair of Sony MDR650BT which have been fantastic but unfortuantely after many years are now falling apart. I wanted a replacement so tried these. At first I thought it was just me needing to get used to them, the sound is flatter than the Sony, but actually after a few days use the sound quality just isnt there. For gaming: Its like having your head in a fish bowl, very hard to explain but the the Sony I was able to pinpoint shots/footsteps etc pretty well, with these everything just felt "fuzzy", it was actually quite a horrible feeling, particularly after being so used to a good set prior. That being said, I didnt particularly notice any bluetooth lag. The bluetooth also dropped out once aswell (dont forget this is only over the space of a few days) whilst my Sony pair for over 3 years this never happened once, so by process of elimiation....... On the plus side they were pretty comfortable, and although not active noise cancelling, did a pretty good job and getting rid of ambient background noise and didnt leak much sound out at all. Shame really, if these were £30 I would say they would be ok for general use, listening to music etc, but they are not £30 and for the price being charged you would expect much better than these.

Let's start with the positives. The sound is awesome, they're super comfy, and the controls easy. The battery lasts for at least as long as stated, and I've usually got an extra hour or so on top. The noise cancellation isn't tip top, but that suits me as I just want to muffle the world around me, not block it out completely. However, the build quality is appalling. I've somehow managed to have a fault, again, and this is my third pair in less than 3 years. First pair, the headband grip loosened, and the touch controls ceased to work. Second pair the head band snapped while i was putting them on. I don't have a particularly big bonce, and have these on the smallest setting. I'm not a particularly heavy handed person either. My third pair, and the sound has completely gone from the right ear and some cosmetic issues with the logo falling away. I want to be clear. I use these for listening to music around the home, walking, and shopping. They've not been subjected to much more than a little jog or skip here and there as I've gone about my daily activities. These are great sounding headphones, but now they're out of warranty, I'll not be getting another pair.

really disappointed in these. akg are a good brand for microphones so i thought their headphones would be decent, these are incredibly uncomfortable, flimsy, and the design is very prone to breakage, as i have seen on other reviews. 1 year after I bought them they essentially snapped in two and are now completely broken and unable to be used. for what I paid this was an absolute ripoff and i would not recommend these.

I was looking for a replacement for my Y50BT headphones which have served me well for four years. The K371 do not disappoint in the sound quality stakes. They are up there with the mighty K240 in terms of long term wearability so let’s get the minus points out of the way. You can’t receive/answer calls through them. Personally, I have no problem there. Plus points: You get studio quality wearability and sound dynamics in a pair of cans that won’t attract your average mugger. Also in the box is a mini XLR to 3.5 Jack lead for if you want to hard connect. Recharging is via a standard mini USB lead. (Supplied). I suppose I’m biased by having four pairs of AKGs around the house but you’ll be hard pushed to beat them for the price.

Very poor build quality, despite being careful the head band ended up suddenly snapping just trying to put them on. Bluetooth was good for the first 6 months or so but the touch controls suddenly stopped working. Also had to buy 3rd party earcups because the originals fell apart and AKG doesnt offer replacements. Very disappointing as the audio quality was nice and they were quite comfortable. Replacement would be nice as they were faulty pretty soon in but AKG support has been pretty poor

Unlike AKG K52 the K371 gives more accurate listening experience of high quality sound in movies & music. My prime requirement was clear dialogues/whisper reproduction even during action scenes etc when other sounds at bass are predominant and found K52 lacking in it. All the notes are clear in K371 (even mids/upper mids) as compared to K52. Apart from my Senhiesser HD 599, the K371 & the K361 are really good at clear reproduction of sounds at all audible frequencies especially with slight tweaking of equaliser in Dolby Atmos as per your taste. HD 599 is little warm and open back giving better sound stage but is unusable if ambient noise is present. I was expecting lesser sound stage in K371 but it is quite acceptable with the slight passive noise cancellation it provides. Mind you the sound clarity drops significantly when using Bluetooth on the K371 bt. I use it with wires for high quality sound & BT only for songs on mobile & calls. Mic is also good enough on BT for calls. BT range is also good. It can play decently from mobile or laptop without any DAC due to low impedance. BT connection is slightly troublesome with multiple devices as it always tries to connect to its earlier connected device & needs intervention. Earlier, quality control was a big issue in K371 but I took a risk due to good discount offered and luckily got a good piece. But I am still doubtful of its durability, especially the delicate hinge mechanisms. I got both HD 599 se & K371 bt at a very good discount (Rs 7k & Rs 6k) thanks to Amazon. My search for perfect headphones as per my requirements is now finally over.

Ürün sorunsuz elime ulaştı. Sound kalitesi gerçekten muazzam.

This product was a pleasant surprise! I didn’t expect the voice quality to be this good. I’m truly amazed by the quality, especially at such an affordable price.

Desde que llegaron, los probé y se apagaban; los recargué y no duraba la carga y se apagaban. Presumiblemente, les fallaba la batería.
