KRK SYSTEMS KNS 8400 - DJ Kopfhörer (Over-ear, Schwarz)
overpriced and low quality (based on the original pair)
there is no third party version of this cheaply made cushions. So had to dish out 30 bucks... . the original pair just crumblem up into small black pieces and the stitches came of like nothing...not happy at KRK.

Missing a bit of low
Love the fact that they match super with my KRK active monitors. Earpads dry out quite fast. Little cracks in the material. Not too serious yet, but will probably fall apart in another 5 years or so. They lack a bit in the lows, but I do not mind that too much. I like the natural sound.

Excellent!
Truly excellent sound quality, and I finally found a pair of headphones with a volume control. The headphones are also very comfortable to wear.The only criticism I have, would be that I prefer a coiled cord rather than the straight one.

surgical instrument for mastering
I've been trying to consolidate project for some time in Beyerdynamics DT770Pro250 and on Yamaha HS7 speakers. Every time I finished mastering and send it to another system to play it sounded harsh and overloaded in HMF range. Or conversely when I try to add compression or spectrum shaper in that range it's becoming too much dull. With KNS8400 this job become very easy. Moreover frist time you may notice that these cans not for long pleasing li... Show More

Best headphones I've ever owned.
TL;DR - Excellent pair of headphones that makes music sound clear and rich. They aren't big on bass, but that's good because you can hear everything else that bass would drown out. Super comfortable too, even with glasses on. For the longest time I've been an earphone user, mainly Skullcandy's. I've always loved the pairs I've had because they would isolate a lot of external sounds, and the bass response was great. I was never picky with the qua... Show More

Great product. Great service.
I love my KRK headphones. Are they the best? Yes for me and what I could afford. I have KRK studio monitors speakers and I love them so I thought the headphones would be just as good. And they are. Price was awesome! Ease of ordering awesome! Shipping super fast! Packaging great!

Great Headphones
I am not a headphone expert - but these sound great! They are very comfortable and the sound is clean - no hissy treble and no thumpy bass. The earcups seal out external sound so well that I can yell and not hear my own voice while music is playing. I compared the sound to my Sony MDR-7506 headphones and there was No comparison. The KRKs are so much better. I love the attached volume control dial. And it even comes with a nice leather carrying bag.

Excellent for mixing
I bought these headphones for the purpose of music creation. To me they seem weak in the bass but great for an overall flat sound. For casual music listening look elsewhere. They are comfortable and affordable just recognize their purpose.

Excellent for mixing at a reasonable price
I use my KNS 8400 headphones for mixing to supplement my monitors in my home studio. I am very happy with their performance, Reasonable bass levels from a pair of headphones. I recommend the KNS 8400s.

Works well
In case you're wondering how the old ones come off and these get installed, all you have to do is pull the edge of the foam and it comes out. Just give it a good tug and they should come off. You don't have to mess with the plastic part of the headphones to remove the old foam or install the new foam.

Stellar headphones for the price!
Stellar sounding cans! Especially for the price. The low end response and reach is fantastic! I'm giving them a bit of time, I've read they open up even more. They do sound like you're sitting in front of your monitors (save hearing the room, but it's a small sacrifice). I'm stoked to get to know these puppies and finally start mixing on them!

Refreshing
These things are amazing for the price. Are they going to compete against high end headphones? Of course not. But I doubt you'll find much better at this price point. Frequency response is pretty flat and the range is surprisingly good. There isn't much isolation from outside noise which is a drawback but for me that's not a problem since a lot of my mixing is done at night with no other noise going on around me. They have a bit of weight to them... Show More

Great buy!
Buying headphones or speakers online is a gamble. It's always advisable to hear them first before buying. My gamble paid off with these great sounding headphones. There is also a bit more clarity in the midrange compared to my old Bose set. They fit nicely over my ears and the balance through the frequencies is good. The build quality is excellent and compares with my KRK Rokit5 monitors. They come with a very nice storage/transport bag and it lo... Show More

Nice headphones
Good headphones. Only problem is these should be little bit louder. I have to turn volume up in my computer and audio interface to get normal loudness. Sound quality is good. Can be used in professional studio but i think that final mixing and mastering should be done with studio monitors because headphones can't deliver speakers feeling. These are studio headphones what will bring that flat sound without boosting bass like consumer headphones but still should be louder in any level (bass, mid, high). Good for live band recordings. And very comfortable.

Really detailed sound.
I heard things in my mixes that I hadn't heard before with lesser headphones! The overall sound quality is really excellent - it has a very honest reproduction.

Great heaphones, Great supplier
Bought these based on recommendation from RecordingRevolution.com. They sound great. SUPER comfortable. B&H got them to me very quickly. Lowest price on the 'net. Can't beat it. Also, now I see why people are saying, I wish it came with a shorter cable. The cable has a 1/8 headphone connector (with 1/4 adapter) on one side - BUT the end that connects to the headphone is a smaller connector, and has a little locking mechanism. The manual calls it a sub-mini connector. So you can't just use shorter 1/8 to 1/8 cable. Otherwise, I love 'em. I'd buy it again.

These cans have excellent frequency response without being gritty , smeared , or hyped . I'd mix on them in a pinch and feel pretty confident with the outcome.

Amazing price and value
I use those headphones on a daily basis for over 2 years. I am a musician myself and I use them when mixing some tracks or while playing with others. they are very comfortable and the cable length is long , plus you have an extension that includes a volume control which can be attached if need it . The sound is balanced and makes them very enjoyable at the same time. It's a KRK and sound wise you know what to expect. I love the fa... Show More

Amazing headphones
My first KRK product was Rokit 8 G2, so i need it a headphones to help me hear wide range of sounds. I read a lot for this headphones and finally i made a great choice.

Very happy with them and i don't think to change them. I recommend the KRK products to everyone...

Best Headphones I've used
Extremely Comfortable headphones which I wear for hours without any pain or annoyance. Very Clear sound and well worth the investment, you can hear a wide range of sounds, I feel it has a lot of Mid range. The cables can be removed, which is extremely worth while as if it gets damaged, it can be replaced. I cannot find any cons in this product. Perhaps since they are an American product it could be somewhat troublesome to find replaceme... Show More

Probably my best headphone purchase so far
These cans are WONDERFUL for recording as there is virtually no bleed. They are also SUPER comfortable, and great for laptop music creation and rough mixes (mixes I have done on these have translated very well indeed to a large (HUGE) system as this studio I frequent in the South of Spain. The feel of them is ever so slightly 'cheap' and they don't really fold away to a compact unit but given the most important benefits (great sound and... Show More
