The AKG K52 is a closed-back headphone with over-ear cushions. It offers natural sound reproduction and a balanced audio profile. The bass is solid, the mids are well-defined, and the highs are clear. This provides a good overall impression when mixing and monitoring. Musicians who play electronic instruments like electric pianos, keyboards, or electronic drums will find the AKG K52 to be a reliable headphone. It is also fully suitable for beginners in home recording. Thanks to its closed design, the AKG K52 provides excellent external isolation. Sound leakage is minimal, which is particularly beneficial for vocal recordings to prevent bleed into the microphone. The good shielding from ambient noise also ensures an undisturbed music experience. To be sufficiently loud with mobile playback devices and USB interfaces, the AKG K52 has a low impedance of 32 ohms and a high efficiency. The AKG K52 offers very high wearing comfort. It is lightweight, the ear cushions are pleasantly soft, and the headband automatically adjusts to the size of the head. This makes it comfortable to wear for extended periods. High-quality components and flexible headbands make the K52 very durable. The ear cushions are easy to clean and can be replaced without much effort.
