AKG K 1000


$1,000.00 Released January, 2001

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Very comfortable. Can compete with the best rare headphones, amongst those such as the: Sony R10, Sennheiser Orpheus, Stax Omega, etc...). Had a street price of only $600 - an amazing value new.

The Cons:Quite rare and expensive. No longer produced. Strange aesthetic along the lines of Stax earspeakers.

Rare high-end dynamic headphones. Considered AKG's finest headphone ever produced.
