Officially, Black Friday and Cyber Monday are in the rear-view mirror, but as retailers try to outcompete each other for how long they can drag out their sales, that’s where you can jump in, take advantage and bag yourself a killer deal in the Cyber Weekend aftermath.
If you’re in the market for a new pair of studio headphones – either just a spare pair, or a replacement after the earcup cushions in yours started flaking (a curse I am currently afflicted with) – these AKG K92 closed-back studio headphones might just be the ticket.
These cans were originally priced at $89, but for a limited time post Cyber Weekend you can grab ‘em for just $49. So what does $49 get you in this case?
The AKG K92s pack pro-grade 40mm drivers for the accurate playback of even the subtlest nuances; there’s no point having a monitoring system if you’re not confident your mixes will translate in different environments. And these cans deliver solidly here.
They deliver a balanced frequency range, with an extended low-frequency response which gives definition to elements like kick drums and bass guitar, while a detailed high-frequency response reveals the nuance in vocals, guitars and acoustic instruments.
The K92s’ closed-back design minimises audio leakage – but why is this important? Well, as the sound is kept to your ears only, you don’t need to worry about the bleed from a click track making it into your recordings, for example.
They’re ergonomic, too; an exposed headband design keeps the headphones comfortable and light, while breathable, lightweight ear pads encircle your ears rather than putting pressure on them. Visuals areimportant, too, right? So these headphones sport golden accents for effortlessly stylish appeal.
Don’t wait around, we don’t expect this deal to be live for much longer…
