View Full Version : AKG K340 Electrostatic-dynamic headphones. ( vintage)
This is my second pair of the K340’s and they have the black drivers which means they’re the bass neutral version .
The original jack plug has been replaced ( very well ) with the smaller one ( see photo) , I will include an adapter.
I’d like £110 which includes p&p to mainland U.K. addresses.
Payment by PayPal friends and family.

For anyone wondering if they're worth the money, I bought the other pair a few weeks ago and while they're not as instantly great as a more dynamic, modern pair of quality 'phones, over time they're more rewarding.
I've got a pair of Grado SR80i that I'm no longer using because I prefer the less-fatiguing, more "speaker-y" sound from the AKGs.
The soundstage is very wide and they cover the ear nicely and just aren't so "in your face".
That said, you do need to power them properly.
I'm using a headphone amp that makes a hell of a difference compared to just turning up the volume on the CDP's socket, for example.
If they were an album, I'd describe them as "a grower" that over time you will come to love.
