AKG K271 MKII — Closed-Back Studio Headphones for Tracking and Mixing

The AKG K271 MKII is a professional over-ear headphone — a dedicated monitoring tool designed for mixing, monitoring, and live performance. Thanks to its sealed, closed-back construction, passive noise insulation is high and microphone bleed is minimized, which matters for both vocalists and drummers recording together. Comfort is maintained by a self-adjusting headband and lightweight 240 g frame, making it suitable for long sessions. This model is a reliable choice for engineers and musicians who require an honest closed-back reference.

What Sets the K271 MKII Apart

Silence kicks in instantly with the auto-mute switch, which prevents any stray audio from leaking into a take as soon as the headphones are off. The professional mini-XLR connector locks the 3 m straight or 5 m coiled cable securely in place, and both cables are provided. Two types of earpads — velvet for breathability, leatherette for isolation — allow for comfort or focus, depending on your needs.

Technical Specifications for Critical Listening

With a 30 mm dynamic driver, 55 ohm rated impedance, and 104 dB SPL/V sensitivity, the K271 MKII can be driven by laptops, audio interfaces, or headphone amps without issue.

• Construction: Closed-back, over-ear — sealed earcups support passive isolation
• Frequency Range: 16 Hz – 28 kHz — full-spectrum coverage highlights both low-end and high-frequency detail
• Driver Size: 30 mm — dynamic transducer tuned for neutral monitoring
• Impedance of 55 ohms means you can use this model with laptops, interfaces, or phones without requiring a dedicated amp.
• Cables Included: 3 m straight + 5 m coiled — both connect via mini-XLR and include a 3.5 mm jack plus 6.3 mm screw-on adapter

Engineered for Studio Engineers, Vocalists, and Drummers

This closed-back design adapts to workflows where live microphones and monitoring need to coexist. Tracking engineers benefit from sealed earcups that protect vocal and drum takes from bleed, while mix engineers rely on the wide frequency response to judge low-end punch and high-frequency clarity. Drummers get extra isolation and a long coiled cable that stays out of the way. It also suits podcasters and home-studio producers who need swappable pads and an auto-mute function.
