The K553 MkII was designed to provide the perfect balance between the noise-isolating qualities of a closed-back headphone and the spacious, dimensional sound of an openback design. The 50 mm drivers provide a strong, yet accurate and distinguished bass response, as needed when monitoring and mastering contemporary music. The extra-large, soft ear pads ensure comfortable, stress-free listening for hours, and the 2D-axis mechanism enables flat folding for easy storage or handling when on the road. With its low-impedance drivers, the K553 MkII is sensitive enough to be used on laptops and mobile devices, making them ideal for travel or critical listening on any device. The soft high-quality detachable cable is equipped with a 3.5 mm (1\/8\") plug, with a screw-on adapter to 6.3 mm (1\/4\") also included.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eLEGENDARY AKG SONIC PERFORMANCE\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eBuilding on a 70-year legacy of continual design innovation, AKG delivers\r\nunmatched sound quality and comfort.
