AKG K361 Studio Headphones — Accurate Monitoring Anywhere

The AKG K361 is a closed-back, over-ear studio headphone designed for creators who need a trustworthy reference at a working-musician price. This model reproduces audio from 15 Hz to 28 kHz, giving producers and editors the deep lows and airy highs needed for confident decisions during mixing. The closed-back oval earcup design helps isolate the listener from room noise and keeps low frequencies from leaking into a live microphone while tracking.

What Sets the K361 Apart in Its Class

Inside each cup sits a 50 mm driver — the largest in this class — paired with a pure oxygen-free copper (OFC) voice coil to enhance transient response. Slow-retention foam earcups and a calibrated, adjustable headband ensure a repeatable fit with balanced clamping force for long days in the studio, while the entire frame folds flat into the included pouch for travel between locations.

Driver and Sound Profile — Studio Reference Tuning

The K361's driver package follows the same engineering philosophy as the higher-tier K371, tuned toward a neutral Harman-target response that translates well across playback systems. This design makes the headphones a practical tool for editing podcasts, tracking vocals, and rough-mixing music without artificial coloration.

• Driver Size: 50 mm — a large diaphragm moves more air for stronger low-end and smoother highs
• Frequency Response: 15 Hz – 28 kHz — extended range that captures sub-bass detail and high-frequency air
• Voice Coil: Pure OFC (oxygen-free copper) — cleaner signal transfer and lower distortion than standard copper windings

Connectivity and Compatibility — Plug-and-Play Across Devices

Thanks to a 32 Ω impedance and 114 dB SPL/V sensitivity, the K361 plays loud and clean from a laptop output, phone, or dedicated audio interface—no separate headphone amp required. Two included straight cables are provided for both desktop and rack workflows, and the locking mini-XLR connector keeps the cable secure during active sessions.

• Impedance: 32 Ω — easy to drive from phones, laptops, and interfaces without extra amplification
• Sensitivity: 114 dB SPL/V @ 1 kHz — high output means comfortable listening levels even at low volume
• Choose the 1.2 m cable for mobile work, or the 3 m cable for extended studio reach—both are detachable and included.
• Adapter: 3.5 mm to 6.5 mm (1/8" to 1/4") — connects directly to mixers, audio interfaces, and instrument amps

Comfort and Portability — Built for Long Sessions and Travel

Weighing just 219 g, the K361 is light enough for full tracking or editing sessions without causing ear fatigue. The foldable hinge design collapses the headphones into a compact shape that fits into the included protective pouch for easy portability between home, studio, or stage.

• Weight: 219 g — among the lightest professional closed-back designs in this segment
• Foldable, oval over-ear construction combines isolation with packability, whether you’re in the studio or traveling.
• Ear Pads: Slow-retention foam with premium isolating oval shape — reduces low-frequency leakage and remains comfortable over time

Who the K361 Is For

The AKG K361 is the right choice for home-studio producers, podcasters, vocalists, drummers, and content creators who need a reliable closed-back reference at an accessible price. It suits engineers mixing on the go, beat makers tracking vocals in untreated rooms, and drummers who need isolation from a live kit.
