As good or better than the Sennheiser PX-100, August 27, 2010

I have two pair of the old PX-100 headphones. I bought these for a new unit and I like them very much. The comfort is much improved as compared to older AKG compact models that used a steel headband. I think durability will be okay, but I have some concerns about the 3D Axis construction. Sound quality (which is most important) is outstanding, much better than I expected to be honest. I believe these will be more appealing to those who have concerns about the PX-100 (version 2) that is now available on the market.

AKG K 420, October 29,2010

Great sound for this price - similar to Koss Porta-pro, maybe a little better, with a little more bass.
Mostly open air design is nice for use at work where annoying co-workers and manager types keep asking you questions, and for walking outside where you need to be able to hear approching cars, bikes, killers, and so on.
Easy to unfold and put on, easy to take off.
Nice flexible cord, not too long. May actually be too short if you have a long neck like E.T., though.
Very good comfort level for me. Pads sit nicely on my ears, are tight enough to stay put, but not too tight for long term wear.
