The headset’s uniform venting gives it the appearance of being semi-open on both ear cups. This serves two purposes: you hear a more accurate depiction of sound and ventilation is better than with closed-back headphones, giving the AKG K240 Studio a fantastic retro feel. This applies to both open and semi-open headphones for those who are inexperienced. You may readily hear what you’re listening to from anyone nearby. Use caution when using this headset in a crowded office or next to your roommates at home. The dynamic drivers in the AKG K240 Studio faithfully reproduce frequencies between 100Hz and 1.2kHz. Sub-bass tones are underemphasized by the headset. Listeners with music catalogues filled with instrumental and vocal-heavy tunes will like how bass notes grovel to mids, yet those coming from Beats headphones may believe the bass is nonexistent. Rise to the Sun by The Alabama Shakes begins with a soft drumroll that doesn’t crescendo, which is quickly followed by hard drum strikes. These impacts are loud and distinct since they don’t come from the genuine kick drum (sub-100Hz).
