ears no matter where you go. And the unique Crystal-Clear Sound technology makes every track sound as if you were right at the concert! An integrated volume control adds to the versatility of these fabulous ear buds.Technical details? Type dynamic, semi-open ? Efficiency K 14 P: 126 dB SPL/V ? Frequency range K 14 P: 17 Hz to 23 kHz ? Rated impedance 17 ohms ? THD
Advantages: Very sturdy. Great sound. Disadvantages: None
...break them so this is a very good thing indeed.
Their frequency range (for those of you who like the numbers) is 15 Hz to 20,000 Hz and their impedance is 600 ohm. They weigh about 8.5 ounces.
Because they last and last it may be that AKG have revised their model numbers since I bought mine. A quick look on Google shows that Dolphin Music do a wi-fi version called an AKGK240 DF.
You can't trip on those if there's no wire!
If I had to find a downside with these headphones it would be that the plastic can get hot on your ears after a while. Hot ears seems a small price to pay when these sturdy headphones will last and last, and sound really professional....

Opinion:
I hate earphones. I hate the way you have to wedge them into your ear, you're constantly worried whether they'll fall out, and they're about as comfortable as sticking gravel in your ear.
I wanted a cheap pair of *head*phones, that were comfortable, stereo, and if possible from a good manufacturer.
The AKG-44s have been exactly what I'm after. The speaker bits are surrounded by a soft leathery cushion - no rough edges, comfortable, and I feel like I could wear...

Advantages: Typical AKG bulid quality - sturdy, comfortable and brilliant sounding Disadvantages: None that i can think of...
...Essentially the same as the old K240 DF's that I replaced, these are another high quality example of AKG's offerings. Sound quality is as excellent as ever.
...Sound...
These are very versatile headphones as the sound reproduction is very good - as useful at home as they are in the studio. They have a good MF and HF range, good LF but can be a bit lacking sometimes - compared to the old 240DF's I had anyway. I use them at work sometimes for sound checks and they have always been pretty reliable.
...Durability...
They've been dropped, contorted and ran over; they still work as well as ever. Reasonably thick, sturdy cable which not only avoids getting tangled up with itself unlike smaller cables, but also helps to prevent damage from twisting, cutting etc.
...Comfort...
This was one of the main reasons I bought the newer model...
