How big is the quality difference between the Fantano AKG K 240s

well m50s are a meme so...

>>53414590
is that supposed to be a bad thing...

>>53415060
yes...

>>53415064

i think most audiophiles on headfi would tell you to get the AKGs

Here's the difference (or lack thereof) in frequency response between the two. You can compare with other headphones and build your own graph here:

really? i have them.

Can someone explain me why they're bad?
Beside the fact they're a meme?

>>53415121
they aren't.

/mu/ just hates anything that's popular.

I think the the Sennheiser HD 598s are better than both and are only a little more expensive than the ath m50s

>>53415121
they're not bad at all

>>53415166
but are they significantly better than the AKGs?

Let me guess, you fucking bandwagoning retards don't know how to read a freq response chart?

>>53415164
True, but they sort of want an amp, which is another 50-100 units of western currency

Also, closed back for the maximum niggerbass and being able to use the ath-m50s outside is nice

price =/= quality
akg k240s are open/semi open headphones, while M50s are closed back. as a result the k240s will have better instrument separation than the k240s and be more balanced overall. the M50s are a little emphasized in the bass end of things. i would recommend the k240s if you listen to music with instruments, and the M50s if you listen to mainly electronic/rap/hiphop/pop.
but either way they are both pretty good headphones in which you cant go wrong either way.
