Description
The AKG K553 MKII is a closed-back, over-ear studio headphone for monitoring, mixing and mastering. It pairs the isolation of a closed-back design with a spacious, open sound. The 50 mm drivers give strong, accurate bass for monitoring and mastering current music.
Extra-large soft ear pads stay comfortable for hours, and the 2D-axis mechanism folds the headphones flat for storage and travel. The low-impedance drivers work well with laptops and mobile devices. The detachable cable has a 3.5 mm plug, and a screw-on 6.3 mm adapter is included.
