AKGN5005 Reference Class 5-driver Configuration In-Ear Headphones with Customizable Sound (US Version), Black - GP-N505HAHHAAA

This thing sounds amazing. I use a Qudelix 5k, and you can just crank the bass on this with little to no distortion. It’s also super small with a super small nozzle so it fits awesome. It’s build like a tank and comes in a very nice box for a good unboxing experience as well.

Incredible quality for the price.

really like the trebletreble is the star of the show heretoo bad default tips are not ideal fit if they were 1mm wider it will be perfect other included tips are not same inner diameter and alter the sound not in a good wayN5005 sound maybe like 2018 1k iem but compared to today 1k iems they are not that greatoverall signature is bright with sometimes harsh treble but I like the treble on certain songs it shines like no otherbass is old school hifiman type think re600

The original price of these fine in-ear monitors was $999 (still is that price on the AKG website). The are, simply put, the best sounding iems I have ever heard. The collection of supplied accessories is superior, the packaging is luxurious. My only quibble is that the cable termination at the iem end is an mcxx that is not standard -- the socket and plug are both just a little deeper/longer than standard. Size DOES matter... no other after market cable will work with these, so if you need or want to replace the stock cable, you are stuck with AKG.. Aside from that, a great product!

Easy to wear, 3-DSound at its best, very detailed stage, cristal clear sound, wow in combination with tube-amplifier!! I like and love the sound!

this is like using a phones speaker in your ear

there is no question you get a lot with the AKG N5005. bluetooth, 2.5 and 3.5 mm cords, various filters and airplane adaptors. The quality is apparent. BUT. the cords all connect to the earbuds at best tenuously and in my case. not at all. left ear simply will not plug in. apparent defect.that being said. I am returning these and buying a new set in the hopes that a properly made unit will be fantastic.fingers crossed.

I am impressed. These 5 drivers are on point! In my opinion the best on their price range and then some.Although I like high end headphones I was happy with my Etymotic IEM's for years, until they suffered an accident. I love analytical/reference sound but now I wanted something better, wider, more dynamic and integrated.AKG brand is one of my favorites, 812 in hi-fi and 712 in mid-fi.I remember back in 2012, when considered Shure SE846 and Sennheiser ie800 as IEMS but settled for Etymotic since I needed the best isolation on the NY subway. Then I noticed the AKG 3003's hybrids and truly loved and admired the combination of dynamic driver and balanced armature they had. I thought: if just for sound, this beat easily the Shure and slightly the Sennheiser.Now that I bought the N5005: WOW.It shows the paradigmatic investigations of Dr. Sean Olive and others at Harman Acoustics Research centers. If you pay good money for AKG, Sennheiser, Beyerdinamic, etc. you are buying know how, tuning, expertise and experience that new brands cannot imitate (with a few exceptions).Anyway, the dynamic driver for lows (subwoofer), the two balanced armatures for mids (woofers) and the two balanced armatures for highs (tweeters) are put for perfection.
