AKG Unveils K181 DJ UE Reference Class Headphones

AKG by Harman is introducing the new K181 DJ UE reference class DJ headphones, developed based on input from professional DJs. The K181 DJ UE (Ultimate Edition) headphones are built for professional DJ use in club environments.

The K181 DJ UE headphones feature a closed back design and a 50 mm transducer, delivering power to withstand PA speakers, especially for pre-fader listening. For loud working conditions, the Bass Boost will help DJs better hear low frequencies, while the headphones’ coiled cable offers freedom to move without stepping on a cable.

“The new K181 DJ UE headphones are the result of our listening to the needs and demands of our DJ customers in the field,” said Philipp Schuster, product line manager, headphones, AKG. “In speaking with our customers, we learned that some of their priorities include freedom of movement, high power and strong low-frequency reproduction. We feel the K181 DJ UE headphones fulfill these requirements and more!”

Key Features Include:

Bass Boost switch to emphasize low frequencies in loud working conditions.
Detachable coiled cable that gives freedom to move in the DJ booth.
Mono/Stereo switch for single ear monitoring.
3D-Axis folding mechanism for transport and storage in record or laptop bags.
