And you'll never get tired of wearing AKG Foldable Studio Headphones because their ergonomic design provides a comfortable fit-even during long sessions.

Legendary AKG Sonic Performance
Building on a 70-year legacy of continual design innovation, AKG delivers unmatched sound quality and comfort in this new family of foldable studio headphones. The new K175 represents the culmination of decades of refinement-from the transducers, to the porting, to the fit and finish.

You Can Take Headphones Out Of The Studio ...
...but you can't take the studio out of these headphones. As the most trusted name in studio headphones, AKG has sold over one million pairs of K240 series alone and now it's even more convenient to take studio-quality quality sound with you. With the K175, it's almost as if you were sitting in front of a pair of great reference monitors-transparent, defined and uncolored.

You've Never Heard Bass Like This
When you're serious about editing and mixing your music, you're looking for more than thumping bass in your headphones, you need nuanced low frequencies. The K175 offers 40mm transducers-the largest in their class-to create greater low-frequency extension and detailed bass reproduction. This makes it easy to define each and every instrument you're hearing.

Built To Last
After decades of the strictest product standards and most rigorous of testing regimens, quality has become synonymous with the AKG name-and these headphones are no exception. From intensive driver stress tests, to an80,000-bend-cycle for cables-even an exaggerated drop test-we put our headphone designs through the gauntlet, so you can count on them for years to come. All of the critical pieces are metal, including the hinge, guaranteeing they last through heavy use. Additionally, the cable is replaceable, further extending the life of your investment.

Take The Studio With You
With a completely foldable design, made possible through an innovative, three-axis hinge, the K175 can easily be collapsed and transported in tight spaces, like a travel bag. The design minimizes the exposure to damage that comes with the demanding mobile lifestyles of musicians, producers and audio engineers.

Make Music In Comfort
No more tugging or pulling to adjust the fit of your headphones. The AKG K175 are the first foldable, studio-quality headphones in their class to offer a self-adjusting headband, floating ear cups and an innovative three-axis hinge to provide you an instant, all-over perfect fit with every use.

Studio Quality Sound With Excellent Lfe
These headphones have high-quality, full-spectrum reproduction that allows incredible low end without artificial bias. This means that you can listen to bass-heavy tracks and know that you're getting accurate reproduction that will translate to other systems.

Comfort And Portability
AKG headphones have always been known for their comfort; easily supporting hours-long sessions without hurting your ears. The ability to fold these headphones for transport, as well as the 32 KOhm impedance, mean that you can take the headphones you know and trust with you for any listening application.

Build Quality
Not only are they assembled using the finest materials and building techniques but they are rigorously tested for longevity and ruggedness.
