AKG K271mkII Closed Back Circumaural HeadphonesAKG K 271 mkII Headphones combine the benefits of AKG’s circumaural design for extreme comfort, and a closed-back design for maximum isolation from ambient noise.

AKG Varimotion Technology
The basis of superior audio performance
The heart of any headphone is the diaphragm. Made of extremely thin foil, the diaphragm is required by transducer designers to perform incredible, almost artistic feats. The rim of the diaphragm must vibrate elastically while the center portion should move like a piston. AKG achieved just that by designing the Varimotion system.
The sound zone in the center is thicker than the rim and therefore moves like a piston with no partial oscillations. The result is an absolutely realistic sound, with a better sonic perspective and an airier high end. The rim, or movement zone, is thinner and vibrates more easily, providing a powerful, punchy bass range.
