Has anybody tried the
AKG-K240 DF its discountinued now, but I was wondering how it compares to the
AT-M50 or other headphones in that caliber? This was from AKG's website:
Quote:
- Diffuse-field equalized, designed strictly to IRT (German Institute for Radio Technology) standards
- Single cable for ease of use
- Semi-open, circumaural design
Used as reference headphones by many radio stations worldwide, this model has been in the AKG catalog unchanged for ten years and has become a classic by now.
With their flat frequency response, these headphones provide an uncolored sound. The diffuse-field equalized K 240 DF meets not only the stringent criteria of the IRT standard but those of professional sound engineers as well.
Created to fulfill the international IRT specification, the K 240 DF establishes a uniform quality standard free from environmental variables. In fixed apposition to the ears, the sound output quality is unchanging and reliable – as opposed to loudspeaker monitors, sound from which is markedly influenced and colored by variations in control room architecture and furnishings.
