AKG K-361-BT

I wanted a BT headset for my wife, to be used at home for listening music, watching videos, and make calls. This set is very affordable (not the cheapest, but also not the more expensive) and it also very comfortable. The battery last at least one day of continuous use, and they isolated a lot of external noise, even without having digital noise-canceling. The microphone is good for calls, just like a standard headset.

One of the strongest point, at least for me, is that they can be used with a cable, and they provide studio quality sound. So, while I mix with Beyerdinamics 990, I borrow this to get a second perspective.

Now they are mostly used at home (for pandemic), but for sure they will be great to travel with, specially in noise environments such as trains or airplanes.

Totally recommended!

I have used AKG headphones for many many years for three reasons:

1. When working as a sound engineer for a broadcasting company, a certain model of AKG was standard equipment in every studio so I'm used to them.
2. All I've tried so far are very comfortable , which is good if you spend hours in them.
3. The sound is "predictable" and does not add their own "twist" that would have made them useless as reference.

This particular model, the AKG K-361-BT, are all of the above to a good price. The possibility to use them with cable makes them usable for live situations and BT is great when lag is not an issue.

My ears are not really good enough anymore to appreciate the most intricate details that a set of expensive headphones would reveal, so I think I've found my perfect set!
