AKG K553 MKII - Closed Back Studio Headphones
Description
AKG K553 MKII – Closed Back Studio Headphones
The AKG K553 MKII delivers a rare balance: the noise isolation of closed-back design paired with the spacious, dimensional sound characteristic of open-back monitors. Built for extended mixing and mastering sessions, these headphones combine comfort through extra-large soft ear pads with a lightweight over-ear form factor that won't fatigue during hours at the console. The 2D-axis fold-flat mechanism makes them equally at home in the studio or on location work.
Audio Performance
The 50mm drivers provide strong yet accurate bass response essential for monitoring contemporary music, with a frequency response of 12Hz–28kHz and sensitivity rated at 114dB/V to deliver impressive output even from portable devices. Low 32 Ohm impedance and 200mW maximum input power ensure these headphones perform reliably whether connected to a professional interface or a laptop.
Design & Build
Advanced closed-back technology provides high noise insulation critical for accurate monitoring work, while the 305g weight and circumaural fit minimize ear fatigue over extended sessions. Replaceable earpads and a detachable 3-meter cable with 1/8" plug and included 1/4" adapter support both portable and professional studio setups.
