Design
The design is an in-ear headphone, the earphone goes in the ear rather than covering the ears. The earphones is pushed a few millimetres into the canal like an ear plug, this helps prevents external noise coming in whilst listen to the sound coming from the earphones.
Without the cable, the earphone weigh a super light-weight of 3 grams. Most other earphone average 5 grams. The cable is only 1 meter long; this is short in my opinion but it is 99.9% oxygen free. It comes with a standard gold plate jack, which is inserted to mps players, laptops and any other 3.5mm socket.
There are two version of the K340. One is the liquorice and the other is the fudge. Same slick metallic design but it has unique colours. Moving away from the common black and white.
It also has an inline volume control. Lets you adjust the volume without the hassle of getting your music player out of the bag or your pocket.
Sound Quality
Many new earphone have a frequency range of 5 – 24,000 Hz, but the AKG K340, the frequency is 11.5-23 Hz. Not as wide but it does the job.
Comfort
It comes with soft rubber bud that give a comfortable fit.
