Amazing but it's not for everyone
So, here's some context before you read this... I am not an audio engineer or a seasoned audiophile by any means. That word gets thrown around a lot these days. I own a pair of Airpods Pro and needed a pair of secondary headsets for the following reasons. If you only want to know what they sound like, I've written about it at the end. 1. Comfort: I needed something light weight and over-ear since the Airpods can start causing discomfort to your ears if you use them over prolonged periods of time. The AKG K52's are amazing at this. You'll pretty much forget that you have them on. One thing to remember here is that if you're in a hot environment, you could sweat around where the ear pads are. Overall, my ears are thanking me for this decision. 2. Lossless Audio: If you own Bluetooth earphones like the Airpods/Airpods Pro/any Bluetooth headset, you'd be aware that it doesn't support lossless audio on Apple Music. If you'd really like to take a crack at that, these are some of the cheapest headsets with 40mm drivers. Your next best options are by Audio Technica but they cost significantly more. Since I was only looking for a secondary pair, this was a good middle ground. 3. Not worry about batteries: Owning bluetooth headsets can be agonising if you wanna listen for long hours. Especially since in between I'm just watching random YouTube videos. So, I decided to pick up these wired ones. How do they sound? A: Well, they sound great but this largely depends on your taste in music. They have a very neutral sound profile. If I had to point out the biggest difference between Airpod Pro's and these is 'Immersion'. These definitely don't feel as immersive as more expensive headsets but that would be unfair to expect at the price. I'm not saying they're "good for the price", they're just good in general. But don't expect a thumping bass or exaggerated sound profiles, it's not meant for that. I'd recommend other headsets for those. If you're into Low-fi Hip Hop, Chill mellow music, Jazz, Acoustic music etc. these are insanely good. Great for podcasts as well. But if you're someone who loves to blow the music out at full volume and enjoy some good deep bass / loud Bollywood (I do too from time to time), these aren't the headsets for it. It can be slightly uncomfortable to listen to these at 100% volume for long hours. They're best at 50% so you can relax and work while you're listening to music. Hope that's as detailed as possible for you to make your decision. :)

Unparalleled sound quality, it all feels real, great for Music Professionals.
AKG K52 is a great Headphone. Idk about the pricing, but the sound is really good. you will feel as if the things are happening around you in reality, The Cord is quite long, around 1.5-2 meters, i don't know exactly, but long enough. Ear Cups are soft, the clamping force is decent, not a tight one. You can do music Mastering and Mixing with these as the sound quality is Professional Studio level. I am not a sound engineer, but I am a Singer/Multi-Instrumentalist. You can trust my award winning trained ears. That's it. Enjoy the realness with these.

READ THE WHOLE THING
So here's the deal. I've owned these headphones for about 2 years now , and it's honestly been spectacular. This is a studio headphones for audiophiles on a budget. The bass is perfect , not the usual ear-rape bass , and the vocals&midrange are just heavenly. This is coming from someone who has used Audiotechs 8k headphones and honestly to me K52 sounds better. Also it's great for gaming, I use this headphones 8hrs straight on weekends and the directional audio is perfecr and the comfort is pretty damn good with decent noise isolation. The build is mostly plastic with metal headbands , the ear cups are softand comfortable but the synthetic material covering the cups is gonna peel off in a couple of month . the only possible downside I could think off is that it doesn't have mic (which it's not supposed to, being a studio headphone) , and this would just be me being unreasonably picky. So if you are planning on buying something in 2-3k range the k series is the best option out there . FOR BOTH GAMING AND MUSIC. I KNOW IAM JUST A STRANGER BUT TRUST ME. HOPE YOU ENJOY HOUR NEW K SERIES HEADPHONES.

Excellent sound at a good price!
These are a very good pair of headphones for the money. Build quality is good, and with a long cable, it is easy to use in many setups. We used these headphones on a three week movie shoot that involved a lot of travel and daily use in many situations. The headphones show very little wear and the cable hasn’t frayed or shown signs of breaking. Comfort is ok, the faux leather pads are well cushioned but they get sweaty and irritating after a few hours of use in hot weather. The top band is bear metal so does not offer any cushioning, though they are fairly light pair of headphones so it is not a major problem. Audio quality has been excellent, with a very balanced sound that does not favour any frequency. This may not appeal to those who like a lot of bass in their music but if you want a clear representation of a song or recording these headphones will not disappoint. Accessories bundled with the headphones are very limited, having a detachable cable or carrying case would have been nice, but instead we only have a 3.5mm to 6.35mm phone adapter. Overall I am very pleased with these headphones and can easily recommend them!

Best sound quality for the price
Sound Quality : 9/10 Very good frequency response even the tiny musical instrument is hearable. Not very bass heavy it is more of like for Audiophiles Comfort : Lightweight than other headphone. If incase you feel the clamping factor it will lessen with usage Best use with laptop, soundbars, TVs etc I don't think you can use it mobile phone (if you have 3.5 mm audio jack) as it needs decent power for the drivers to give clear and good enough output. It even has professional studio socket so you can plug it with any studio hardware

Nice
Nice but it so much tight fir me It is a bit difficult to keep it on for a long time; it isn't soft.

Serious Sound, No Frills
These headphones are incredibly comfortable—no pressure on the ears since the cups fully surround them, making long listening sessions a breeze. The sound profile is flat, which is perfect if you want an accurate, balanced audio experience without the muddy mids that come with bass-heavy or V-shaped sound. The soundstage is also impressively wide, giving you that extra sense of space that brings out details. The build is durable, though it might show a bit of wear over time, but that’s only cosmetic. My one small complaint is the headphone jack; it’s a bit loose and could be better quality. If you’re after a slightly punchier sound, you might want to check out the OneOdio Pro-10—I personally enjoy its more dynamic profile. But overall, these are a great choice for anyone looking for balanced, spacious sound.

Absoluter Preis-Leistungs-Kracher – seit über zwei Jahren im Einsatz
Ich habe den AKG K52 im Januar 2024 gekauft, ursprünglich als Kopfhörer für meinen PC. Da ich dort mittlerweile lieber komplett kabellos unterwegs bin, nutze ich ihn inzwischen hauptsächlich an meinem Fernseher zum Filme schauen. Das hat allerdings nichts mit dem Kopfhörer selbst zu tun, sondern ist einfach meine persönliche Präferenz. Für den Preis ist der AKG K52 meiner Meinung nach ein absoluter Deal. Ich bin definitiv kein Audiophiler und habe auch nicht das Fachwissen, um hier irgendwelche wissenschaftlichen Klanganalysen abzuliefern. Was ich aber sagen kann: Klang und Tragekomfort spielen in dieser Preisklasse ganz oben mit. Ich habe den Kopfhörer am PC teilweise jeden Tag mehrere Stunden und nicht selten sogar den ganzen Tag getragen. Gerade bei kompetitiven Videospielen hat mir der Kopfhörer tatsächlich dabei geholfen, Geräusche besser zu orten und entsprechend schneller zu reagieren. Wenn ein Kopfhörer sowas bei mir schafft, kann ich mich über den Klang wirklich nicht beschweren. 😄 Auch beim Tragekomfort hatte ich von Anfang an nichts auszusetzen. Der Kopfhörer sitzt gut und auch längere Sessions waren für mich überhaupt kein Problem. Nach über zwei Jahren wirklich intensiver Nutzung ist der Kopfhörer außerdem immer noch tadellos. Das Einzige, was mittlerweile etwas Verschleiß zeigt, ist das Kunstleder am Kopfband. Das löst sich bei mir inzwischen stellenweise etwas auf. Das kann allerdings auch an meinen ziemlich borstenartigen Haaren liegen. 😄 Ansonsten sieht das Ding für sein Alter und die Nutzung wirklich noch sehr gut aus. Sehr praktisch finde ich außerdem, dass sich die Ohrpolster austauschen lassen. Gerade bei einem Kopfhörer, den man über Jahre benutzt, ist das meiner Meinung nach ein großer Vorteil. Unterm Strich bin ich mit dem AKG K52 wirklich mehr als zufrieden. Für die Preisklasse fällt mir ehrlich gesagt kaum etwas ein, das klanglich und beim Tragekomfort so viel bietet. Wer einen guten kabelgebundenen Kopfhörer für relativ wenig Geld sucht, bekommt hier meiner Meinung nach einen absoluten Preis-Leistungs-Kracher. Klare Empfehlung.

Best value/dollar ratio..
These are the best closed back headphones I've run across for the money with good bass, smooth sound throughout the range,and no particular coloration above the bass to the highs. The only two drawbacks would be that for closed back headphones, the isolation isn't the best, especially for smaller heads, and the overall sound character isn't as airy and open sounding with that almost laser imaging that can be achieved with the open backs, which would be at least twice the cost for those for such tonal balance as these. Sensitivity is also decent and not hard to drive with various headphone amps.

Prima hoofdtelefoon
Ik heb geen bluetooth op mijn TV maar wil gebruik maken van een koptelefoon om geluidsstoringen te voorkomen. Over de jaren heb ik dure exemplaren draadloze exemplaren gekocht en opvouwbare versies maar meestal laten ze allemaal los op mijn hoofd over tijd en gebruik. Deze lijk wat stevig te zijn en is zeer comfortabel. De draadlengte gekoppeld met een aankoppel draad van mijn TV is plenty lang genoeg om in mijn kamer te kunnen bewegen zonder dat ik de koptelefoon af moet doen. Tot nu toe is het een prima aankoop en lang niet zo duur als de voorgangers!
