Jase, the AKG K240's were built to the exact specifications given to AKG by Deustche Rundfunk (German Radio) as their de-facto cans to be used when recording live orchestra gigs. Can't understand why they don't sound any good in your studio. What's your desk?
But beware anyone who's interested in a pair cos they are 600 ohms impedance. Trying to use these out of a soundcard would be like trying to light a truck's headlamp on a couple of Duracells.
As for the quality, I run them out of my mixer on a balanced system and they sound better than my genelecs used to. Not because my gennys weren't any good, they were great.
