Hit the road with Quincy Jones style
From AKG and the producer of one of the best-selling singles of all time, "We Are the World," comes the Q460 on-ear headphones. Their advanced driver design delivers top-to-bottom clarity and accuracy, achieving the level of sound quality that musicians like Jones demand. Super-soft ear pads combine with the Q460s closed-back, lightweight design to block out most ambient noise. Plus, an innovative folding mechanism allows these 'phones to collapse down to a super-compact size for easy carrying no matter how far you travel across the globe.
Switch between calls and music on your iPhone
Do you use an iPhone? The Q460s give you great sound and convenient operation. They come with an in-line microphone and remote for making and receiving calls, as well as controlling basic music playback without even touching your phone. And the detachable, single-sided cable is designed to resist tangles for maximum portability.
A share of the proceeds from these AKG Quincy Jones Signature Line headphones will go to the Quincy Jones Musiq Consortium to support music education.
From the review AKG Quincy Jones Signature Q460
"My goal in this review was to hear Quincy Jones' music through the headphones that had to meet his standard. What I found consistently was that the level of detail, balance and efficiency of these headphones presented his music as he would have heard it in the final studio board mix. They also performed handily with the rather eclectic mix on my MP3 player. Quincy Jones and I share the values of balanced tone, clarity, and simply allowing the music to express its own flavors and leaving the headphones out of the mix. when I was listening with the Quincy Jones Signature Q460 headphones, I experienced enjoyment, pure and simple.

I got these headphones at a good sale price but I would pay full for them they sound really good and are better built then the Dr Dre Beats Headphones that broke on me after 2 years. So the sound quality is good and lightweight which is a plus for me on the go.
