[QUOTE="Zeno Marx, post: 572763, member: 1211"] I have AKG 240s, and a lot of studios used to use them. I'm sure there are newer designs today, but I wouldn't have a problem buying another pair or recommending them. I've had mine for decades. The reason studios used them is because of their uncolored, flat, accurate response. For me, that translates into little hearing fatigue over long periods. There are certainly brighter and boomier headphones out there, but how long can you use them before you notice your inner ear itching? Or a headache? Or literal cognitive fatigue? Because your brain is getting hit with all this colored, accentuated sound. [/QUOTE]
