Our take on the AKG K361 Over-Ear Headphones

The AKG K361 is a wired, closed-back studio headphone with 50 mm dynamic drivers and a detachable 3.5 mm cable. It is tuned close to neutral, with a mild bass lift, and folds flat for transport. At 32 ohms and 114 dB sensitivity it runs loudly from a phone or laptop without an amp. Reviewers treat it as a strong value pick against the Audio-Technica ATH-M50x and Sony MDR-7506, with a more balanced sound than the M50x but less isolation and a lighter build. It suits listeners who want honest sound and a replaceable cable, not wireless convenience or active noise cancellation.

What reviewers say

  • 4.6 / 5110 ratings

Owners and reviewers rate the K361 highly for sound quality at its level, calling it one of the most neutral closed-backs in its class. Complaints center on build materials, earpad comfort and weak isolation rather than audio.

What people mention
