Universal genius

The AKG K271 MKII are professional over-ear headphones designed for studio mixing, studio monitoring and live performance applications. Perfect for vocalists and drummers and built to provide the best possible sound reproduction, their fully-enclosed, sealed design provides high noise insulation, low signal bleeding into studio microphones and maximum isolation for live-mixing applications. In addition to great sound quality and insulation, the AKG K271 MKII headphones are extremely durable and comfortable. Not only designed to withstand the demands of countless hours in the studio, their self-adjusting headband provides an ideal fit and their over-ear pads nicely envelop the ears. Other features include an auto-mute switch in the headband as well as a professional mini XLR connector. The AKG K271 MKII headphones also come with a 3m (10ft) straight cable and 5m (16ft) coiled cable, so you can start listening to your music, mix or project right away. Altogether, from performance and ease of use to comfort and reliability, the AKG K271 MKII is a powerful tool for mixing and monitoring environments.
