  • In this video I talk about the incredible value of the AKG Y600NC headphones. Bluetooth AAC and UHQ along with no power running using 3.5mm to 2.5mm cable. Incredible sound quality for the price of $79.99. Can be purchased at Harmon.com or AKG.com.

    I can tell you I'm nobody's talking about them, it's because it's a brand behind the headphones has now been sold off to Samsung, and the people who make the older headphones on AKG are now working at Austrian technologies

    At its new price point. .. WOW!
    Usually listen tethered. Having BT is a nice feature when wired is impractical.
    I agree that the ID of the ear pads is on the smaller side and the not perfect fit around my big ears can get kinda uncomfortable with extended use. If you're lying down the big (entire back!) volume knob can move if you do.
    Small gripes for a very nice set of cans. Worth the discounted price and then some.

    I saw an ad on Cnet for these at 59.99 so at 4am I bought some headphones. I watched this video and some others and this does seem to be the bargain of the day/year for me. On average I would get about 30 feet in range from Bluetooth headsets and I would love to know if these can do better. I haven't found one review or FAQ that addresses that but I will know soon.

    It's great to see an actual audiophile review these. So many bluetooth reviewers are just like, "X headphones got epic bass, stylish build that gym thots will wanna slide in your DMs, and the ANC drowns out the noise of my mom yelling at me while playing counterstrike." Is there much sound difference between wired & wireless? What closed-backs do they sound most similar to--I'm imagining they sound similar to the m50x or m40x when wired and switched off, because even though you describe them as neutral, I can't imagine AKG would release a truly neutral bass in consumer headphones. That would be amazing, though. Feel free to use audiophile terminology.

      seems like a nice solution for the "GYM" bc of how cheap the price of entry is, the sweat and damage it can do to earcups esp on some EXPENSIVE options, vs buying a "PAIR" for a few $$$ more than OE replacement PADS....XD. As well as noise cancelling for how loud it can be seems like a good proposition. Or those that have GROWN accustomed to the new half remote work weeks etc that want that Price conscious QOL boost when ideally working from home partially during the week.

      They are, relatively speaking. They are lower than my Soundcore Q35s. If you were using them in isolation, they're fine overall. They key point is the price. If these were regular price, they'd be a comparably terrible option. For $60-80 they're good.

    the value of 60$ price of entry for type c/harmon curve....will only get as far as the cost of replacement pads/pad life, and storage/transport as those swivel arms will no doubt snap just like they do on the MAJORITY of HP that have an arm like these(pioneer hdj/Sony Xb950n1). Imo the ones with 1 arm/swivel are even worse than the C shaped arms. If Definitely consider a hard carrying case for these. For the price id call these ideal for the gym...60$ get them all hot n SOGGY.....dont have to worry about doing the same exact thing to sony XM1000s...or other 300-400$ cans. While maintaining a RELATIVE level of "performance" even if simulated/eq....they seem like a value proposition to collectors, or those seeking a Price conscious BT HP/entry into wireless headphones.
