Great sound and value on clearance price but ANC cannot be disabled when wireless
These had phones sound great as you expected from a great brand. The ear pieces are comfortable and not suffocating like the larger ones but the downside is they may not cover your ears completely particularly if you have larger ears. The design is sleek and compact though. One feature that I don't like at all is the fact when on Bluetooth, ANC must be enabled by default and there is no way to turn if off. I have BOSE, Harman Kardon and other cheap ones that allows you to turn ANC on and off.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Mediocre headphones
The headphones are Ok. I use them mostly for watching YouTube etc. and for making phone calls. I am not sure if my headphones are defective, or it's a general problem for this particular model, but the people on the other end complain that the sound quality is very poor, constant noise, sound of strong wind, etc.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

A Top-Performing Bargain For Wireless Noise-Canceling
The AKG N60NC has a clean appearance that exudes excellent quality and the unit does not have a cheap feel. It comes with a fabric pouch that contains an internal pocket that holds a USB charging cable and a cable with an in-line remote and 1/8-inch plugs. Also included is an adapter plug that allows you to plug the N60NC into a plane's headphone jacks. This is a blessing and allows you to use the N60NC instead of the disposable earpieces sold by most airlines. Ergonomically, the controls are simple and located on the edge of the right ear cup. With just a little practice you can easily operate these controls just by touch alone. One slide switch activates both the Bluetooth and noise-canceling functions simultaneously in the second position. It can also be used solely for its noise canceling function if you use the included cable to plug it into a source such as your cellphone or a portable audio device. The cable itself contains the aforementioned remote to allow you to pickup and hang up phone calls, play and pause audio and skip backwards and forwards for each song using just one button whose particular function depends on the number of taps. If you are using the Bluetooth function with a cellphone, the microphone on the edge of the right ear cup would substitute your phone's. Despite its tiny dimensions, its quality is first rate (crisp, clean and highly intelligible). The first position is for a passive listening mode used when the headphones are plugged into a source. The third and last position is for Bluetooth pairing mode. AKG has thoughtfully designed this position to be a non-latching, spring-loaded position to prevent users from inadvertently leaving the switch in pairing mode. The left ear cup contains the 1/8-inch mini-jack as well as the mini-USB port, which is used to charge the internal battery. The ear cups swivel both vertically and horizontally on ball bearings that provide little resistance to movement while the headband can be lengthened along different click stops on scales for each side. Regardless of the size and shape of the listener's head, these headphones should be very accommodating and comfortable. Even during extended listening sessions, I did not experience ear fatigue or extra warm outer ears. The sound quality for the list price of $249 is reasonable. The fact that this can be purchased directly from AKG for well under $100 is phenomenal. Most users usually describe headphones and speakers in terms of tonal balance. The N60NCs are too refined for such a simple description. If you listen passively using the included cable, the sound is certainly very well-balanced for the price but it may be a bit lean in the bass for some users. If you are a fan of Beats or most BOSE, you would likely want more mid-bass emphasis or a downright boomy sound. The N60NCs will not produce that kind of goosed-up bass. It's a bit on the light side of neutral (read "balanced") but its mid-range and treble performance is extremely smooth and well integrated for the price. Everything sounds extremely natural without emphasized upper mid-range/lower treble that can produce listener fatigue. Upper bass all the way to high treble is very well balanced while sharp transients such as high-hats, snare drums and cymbals have just the right amount of snap and almost perfect attack and decay. Most other headphones anywhere near this price and many up to $200 at street price blur these details. If there is something missing, it is a slight loss of the extreme high-end extension ("airy" quality) that you can hear from much more expensive headphones. But bear in mind that those headphones are typically not noise-canceling headphones. Those are usually serious audiophile models so the fact that the N60NC can even be compared to those is a testament to the quality of this model. Switching on the Bluetooth/noise-canceling mode will give more than what you would expect. The Bluetooth connection is flawless with no interruptions or dropouts even at more-than-reasonably extended distances from the sources. Noise canceling works extremely well and better than I would have thought possible. The most disturbing external noises, including lawnmowers, vacuum cleaners, and computer fans are reduced to insignificance. Loud extraneous noises will not be silenced but they will be reduced to the point where you can definitely enjoy music and discern every lyric in a well-recorded song. On top of that, the Bluetooth/noise-canceling mode noticeably extends the bass. You will hear a better sense of the body of the music yet the bass will never, ever sound boomy. It can be described as a good deep and tight bass without exaggeration. Imaging is first rate and there is a good sense of spaciousness; not too dry and not cavernous. Just right for my taste. So you can either listen passively and if you want more extended bass, turn on Bluetooth/noise-cancellation. Outstanding!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great ANC headphone at an even greater price.
This a great ANC headphone. I have been interested in this headphone for some time. I've read many reviews on it prior to finally buying it. It folds to a compact size for ease of travel. It is light and comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. It cancels out great deal of mid and low ambient noise, some high frequency still makes it thru if nothing is being played thru the headset. Reviews of this headset and many other good ANC headphones states this common limitation of ANC headphones. Once something is being played thru N60NC wireless the ambient noise it not really noticeable. The high and mid frequencies are clean and rich. The bass is relatively deep. N60NC wireless can also be use as a passive headset without the BT or ANC by using the included wire. In fact it sounds even better used as a passive headset. Even when used as a passive headset ambient was not a problem. While listening to music on passive mode I was unable to hear the television playing in the same room. I do wish the ANC can be turned off while in Bluetooth mode. The N60NC was released in 2017 so it does not have a lot of features available on newer headphones and earbuds. It is still a great headphone especially considering the price.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

AKG by Harman N60NC
This headset got excellent reviews at regular price so at this is a fantastic buy at this price. It would be extremely hard to match the sound quality and features at this price point with any other NC Bluetooth headphones.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great headphones
I have a few different Bluetooth headphones, but these are by far my favorite. I did a lot of online research before I purchased these because I did not want to spend my money on another set of headphones that were not comfortable or did not sound as good as I expected. These have a high rating for a good reason. They are light and comfortable and have nice rich bass with crisp mids & highsVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

Good but no what I expected
The headphone is really nice comfortable, noise canceling is amazing, but does not have the power that I expected. I Uses to have the akg Q serie older model and the sound was amazing but most of all the power. This one it’snot even close to that one. But other than that, is goodVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

AKG proves you can get a big bang for your buck..
I've owned quite a few headphones in my 54 years, mostly wired,(Sennheiser, Audio Technica come to mind) as I play drums. This is the 3rd pair of Blutooth headphones I've bought, JBL and Sony the other 2, both paid well over $150. All I can say about these is wow! $70 for crystal clear, well balanced bass, mids and highs? Yes. Impressive performance, comfort, styling. First pair of AKG's I've owned, and im a fan. I imagine there are $200-$300 plus sets that are just as or more impressive, but does one really need to pay that much for Blutooth? I'd gladly take 3 pair of these over the other option...Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

my favorite headphones
I got these earphones as a gift in 2017. I took them with me everywhere and used them every night to listen to ASMR. I took them with me to Vegas and forgot them in the hotel room. I was so sad so I looked for the same ones here and was so happy to have them again. They are perfect I love them so much.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
