The AKG K451 are good-looking, good-sounding on-ear headphones that are perfect for a work commute. the AKG K451 avoid the uninspiring “wall of sound” effect that we disliked so much in those ultra-popular headphones. At around half the price, these AKGs blow the beats out of the water for value in our opinion.

The K550 are fantastic headphones that give you the sound characteristics of an at-home pair with the portability benefits of a closed.

Smashing all-rounders that really sing.

Sweetly communicative, the K550s handle tempos in a natural manner and punch into and out of low frequencies with razor sharp precision

"Fortunately, AKG's Q460 manage to live up to those aims by being a great set for a decent price. Great audio and striking looks make for a good combination, and although the price tag is a little high they're well worth the investment. 5 stars award"

These strike a balance between the noise isolation of closed-back cans and the spacious noise of open-backed ones. Beefy 50mm drivers add oomph!

Live Magazine of the Mail on Sunday features Jimmy Carr wearing the Q701! "Stunning headphones: AKG took its already excellent K701 cans and added some Quincy Jones music production magic. Their performance is as distinctive as their lime green finish.
