What the Pro’s are Saying

EarBudsZone:

EarBudsZone:

“An excellent example of studio-grade headphones with universal appeal. Audiophiles will love them for the astounding reference sound for the price and gamers will love them for the spatial awareness they provide. In addition, they’re also an excellent entry point into studio headphones if you’ve never used them.”

Major HiFi GOLD AWARD:

Major HiFi GOLD AWARD:

“The AKG K553 Pro headphone offers a surprising level of detail and clarity for the price. Add to this the rugged build quality, as well as the mesmerizing soundstage and ‘open’ sound, and you’ve got one humdinger of a headphone.”

Headphonics:

Headphonics:

“This is a really good headphone, I can’t really find a single true flaw in it with regard to sonic qualities…this is one of the best $150 or so headphones on the market, not only for raw clarity, but also stereo imaging.”
