Do you think that this is the best deal in the $99 range? I believe the new AKG 240MKII's are $199.

Thanks so much and God bless.

There are three different 240 models from Akg that i know .

240 DF 600 Ohm , very low output gain and great for checking the distortion on the final master , very lite in bass but very sensitive .

240 Monitor , also 600 ohm but not that great as DF

240 Studio 55 Ohm , much louder but not precise as DF, almost bass too heavy but great for checking lo end of the mix / master

All of them were new like 90 Euros ....

I have also the 171 ( i think) mk1 and mk2 not a big difference
