AKG, who will exhibit with Schafer at the TFWA World Exhibition in Cannes in October, announces a new addition to their headphones collection, the AKG Y-Series.

 

The series introduces a stand-out modern look alongside the professional heritage of the AKG brand, says AKG. The new range, designed to inspire music lovers, ‘provides listeners with an escape to channel their innovation’.

 

Michael Mauser, President, Lifestyle Division, HARMAN, says: “AKG has unrivalled history in producing award-winning headphones with studio sound quality expected from professionals. With the Y-Series, we’ve combined our classic signature sound with a sleek new design to allow users to express themselves creatively while enjoying their favourite music.”

The AKG Y50 which is said to ‘epitomise’ the new Y-Series, ‘takes on AKG’s rich heritage in sound quality’ with a brand new design in teal, yellow, black or red.

 

The on-ear headphones have a closed ear-cup design for reduced ambient noise and 3D-axis folding mechanism for easy storage and safe transport. “The AKG Y50s lightweight construction are engineered to feel like they’re barely there, while the 40mm drivers ensure the sound makes itself known,” says the brand.
