AKG 240 MK2 Revisited. (Short Update)
My wife stole these for two months to listen too, meanwhile I have been using Sennheiser & AudioTechnica which are fine but it’s now time for me to get acquainted with AKG again.
AKG are the most comfortable pair of headphones I have ever used.
The EarPads are large over ear type and with the overall light weight and Auto adjusting headband has a lot to offer towards this comfort.
No such thing as headphone sound perfection but the 240 MK2 to my ears contains no obvious part of the frequency range that stands out as not quite right.
Good detailed Bass Mids & Highs. A sense of smoothness but nothing missing.
There are many more expensive headphones that don’t approach this level of listening enjoyment at this low price level.

Thank you for your revisited review.
For years, AKG has supplied headsets of the best class within all price ranges.
They have managed to develop models that suit most people by designing the brace and earpads so that the headset can be customized to the greatest extent possible.
In addition, they use good drivers that are easy to drive for most amplifiers.

Chello. To think in my working years I was paid for being involved in sound.
Nice to be paid for something you enjoy doing.

You've been lucky; most people I've talked to throughout my life don't get paid to do what they like, and have a job they don't like, but have to do to survive.
I've also been lucky like you, and have had many different jobs that I've enjoyed, but the pay has often been poor.
One exception is one of my many hobbies, which is making wooden name tags; I use an overhand milling cutter, and have developed my own methods/techniques so that I can make a name tag in 30 minutes just as well as a CNC milling machine.
30 years ago I earned NOK 100 an hour in my regular job, while I earned NOK 600 an hour for my wooden name tags.
It's fun to create things when you get paid so well.
